  • Liberals Have a Ball As PC Party Suffers from Post-Williams Hangover Alex Marland, Memorial University of Newfoundland
    Canadian Political Science Review Vol.9. No. 3. 2015-2016, 72-98 The 2015 Newfoundland and Labrador Election: Liberals Have a Ball as PC Party Suffers from Post-Williams Hangover Alex Marland, Memorial University of Newfoundland Introduction In 2003, the Progressive Conservative (PC) Party of Newfoundland and Labrador rose to power on the basis of a solid plan, an ideological vision and the populist leadership of Danny Williams. In 2007, the Williams team was returned to government on nearly 70 percent of the vote, winning 44 of 48 seats, one of the most lopsided election outcomes in Canadian provincial history. When Williams resigned in 2010 he tapped his lieutenant Kathy Dunderdale to be premier. Drama and instability ensued, magnified by tumult possible only in smaller polities clinging to vestiges of elitism. As the PC Party crumbled, the Liberal Party climbed back from the precipice. It maintained a healthy lead in public opinion polls from mid-2013, won by- election after by-election, and attracted donors and floor crossers. Heading into the 2015 election, that the Liberals would form a majority government and that Dwight Ball would become the next premier were foregone conclusions. The campaign, other than its outcome, was uneventful and introduced calm after years of political instability. The real challenge for Premier Ball and the Liberals will be delivering the better tomorrow they promised. A Very Bad Year: Two PC Leadership Contests and 3½ Premiers in 2014 The PC Party won 37 of 48 seats in the October 2011 provincial election. It marked the first time in the province’s history a woman led a party to election victory.

  • Reasonable Solutions to Newfoundland and Labrador's
    Reasonable Solutions to Newfoundland and Labrador’s Fiscal Reality Tuesday, February 11, 2020 Emera Innovation Exchange room 2007, Signal Hill Campus, 100 Signal Hill Road, St. John’s, NL Link to live broadcast: https://signalhillcampus.com/NLFiscalReality INTRODUCTION Land Acknowledgement A land acknowledgement is offered to recognize Aboriginal peoples’ enduring connection to their traditional territories, to recognize the history of the land that is currently shared by many peoples, and to recognize stewardship as a shared commitment of all those who reside in a territory. The practice of territory acknowledgement is itself a replication of an Aboriginal practice which predates European contact. We respectfully acknowledge the territory in which we gather as the ancestral homelands of the Beothuk, and the island of Newfoundland as the ancestral homelands of the Mi’kmaq and Beothuk. We would also like to recognize the Inuit of Nunatsiavut and NunatuKavut and the Innu of Nitassinan, and their ancestors, as the original people of Labrador. We strive for respectful relationships with all the peoples of this province as we search for collective healing and true reconciliation and honour this beautiful land together. Rationale for the Conference Many people are willing to acknowledge even the province or, at least, the government has a fiscal problem (or a fiscal crisis, for that matter) which needs to be addressed. However, very few of us appear to be prepared to accept that, in fact, I personally have a problem and I need to be part of the solution. Instead, conversations typically proceed along the lines: the Government of Newfoundland and Labrador has an expenditure problem, and as a solution, they need to cut expenditures.
