IN the MOUNTIES WE TRUST: a Study of Royal Canadian Mounted
IN THE MOUNTIES WE TRUST: A Study of Royal Canadian Mounted Police Accountability by STEPHEN LORENZ WETTLAUFER A thesis submitted to the Department of Sociology in conformity with the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts Queen’s University Kingston, Ontario, Canada July, 2011 Copyright © Stephen Lorenz Wettlaufer, 2011 Abstract Police and Canadian citizens often clash during protests sometimes resulting in violent outcomes. Due to the nature of those altercations, there are few other events that require oversight more than the way police clash with protesters and there is a history of such oversight resulting in a number of Federal Parliamentary documents, Parliamentary Committee reports Task Force reports, reports arising from Public Interest Hearings of the Commission for Complaints Against the RCMP, and testimony at various hearings and inquiries which have produced particular argumentative discourses. Argumentative discourses that have a great effect on the construction of a civilian oversight agency of the RCMP is the focus of this thesis. This thesis examines how it is that different discourses, as represented by argumentative themes in these reports, intersect with one another in the process of creating a system of accountability for the RCMP. Through the lens of complaints that arise from protest and police clashes one may conclude that the current system of accountability does not adhere to a practice of protecting the most fundamental rights as prescribed by the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms; nor would the currently proposed legislation contained within Bill C‐38 alter the system in a substantial way to allow for such protections. The power dynamic between the Commissioner of the Force and the Commission for Complaints Against the RCMP favours the police force in the current and proposed system. -

^Andrew Johnson and the Philadelphia Election of 1866
^Andrew Johnson and the Philadelphia Election of 1866 HE TRADITIONAL image of Andrew Johnson's campaign tour during the congressional elections of 1866—the "swing Taround the circle," as it was called—is one of an ill-tempered, illiterate, semi-insane, and thoroughly undignified President thrash- ing madly through the North, harassed on all sides by gangs of ruffians instigated by the Radicals. The conclusion is that Johnson failed politically because he was unable to present his ideas in a sufficiently decorous manner. But it is questionable, when all is said and done, that political success is the natural result of political dig- nity. Certainly, the utterances of Thad Stevens or, better yet, Ben Butler during this campaign were not notably dignified, and, in any case, Johnson had spoken often in the North during the war and had been well received. What this suggests is that perhaps the real clue to his failure, in Philadelphia in particular and in the North in general, lies in what he was saying rather than in any fault of delivery. The essential issue was that of the Negro. The status of the Negro (the basic issue of Reconstruction and therefore of the 1866 election) was not decided in isolation but rather within the apprehensive atmosphere of the i86o's. Thus the "swing around the circle" should be viewed in the context of the Negro question and the general anxiety of the northern voter. The stage for the congressional elections of 1866 had been set by the clash between President Johnson and Congress in the spring of that year. -

Policing and Repression of Anti-Globalization Protests and Movements: a Bibliography of English-Language Material
Interface: a journal for and about social movements Issue 3/1 advance Volume 2 (2): 288 - 367 (November 2010) Mac Sheoin, Policing and repression Policing and repression of anti-globalization protests and movements: a bibliography of English-language material Tomás Mac Sheoin Note The following bibliography assembles a variety of material –from the news media, the movement, academia and the security forces- on the policing and repression of the anti-globalization movement (AGM). The following should be noted: Material included. There is a massive literature on the AGM, much of which deals with these issues en passant. Only sources with these issues at their core are cited. Material not included. Given the subject of the bibliography it should come as no surprise that certain parts of the literature are underrepresented due to the lack of enthusiasm, for example, of certain sectors of the security forces in making documentation publicly available. Readers are invited to visit the websites of two international programmes – the UN’s International Permanent Observatory on Security During Major Events (http://lab.unicri.it/ipo.html) and the EU’s EU-SEC, Coordinating National Programmes on Security during Major Events in Europe (www.eu-sec.org) – and note that, while most programmes these organisations fund bristle with freely-available reports, reports are strangely unavailable from these sites. Material on the media demonisation of the AGM – basic to security force and state management of the movement – has not been included and hopefully will be the subject of a further bibliography. Material on the Internet. Wherever possible, a free downloadable Internet address is given for material.
