Government Senate Leader Marc Gold’s (Stadacona, Que.) proposals to deal with the bill during the summer were turned down by some Senate leaders. The bill, labelled C-6, which will amend the Criminal Code, will be wiped away if a widely-rumoured election is called in the later sum- mer or fall. Bill C-6 would create several new legal restrictions on “conver- sion therapy,” a widely discredited practice of attempting to reverse or suppress the sexuality of a person who is gay, bisexual, or lesbian, or the gender identity of someone who is transgender.

  • Candidate: SAUL BOTTCHER Constituency
    Candidate: SAUL BOTTCHER Constituency: BRAMPTON CENTRE Party: GREEN PARTY of CANADA 1a) Do you support the imposition of sectoral sanctions against Russia's energy, defense and financial services (including removing Russian banks from the SWIFT international payments system) sectors to compel the Russian Federation to withdraw its troops, armies and weapons from Ukrainian soil? YES. I also support any additional sanctions which are reasonably likely to compel a Russian withdrawal, even if those sanctions temporarily impact the Canadian economy. 1b) Do you support providing Ukraine with lethal, defensive weapons to protect itself in the face of Russia's continued aggression and invasion of the Eastern Ukrainian oblasts of Luhansk and Donetsk? NO. This would ultimately harm Ukraine. Whatever weapons Canada can supply, they do not match what Russia has available. Russia will simply respond with additional weaponry or forces as necessary. Therefore, all Canada's supply of weapons would ultimately do is make the conflict more lethal, not change the outcome in favour of Ukraine. Furthermore, by supplying arms, we would risk transforming the conflict into a proxy war, potentially re-starting the cold war (to a further degree than Putin has already done), and giving Russia political fuel to blame the conflict on outside forces rather than Russia's own irresponsible actions. 1c) Do you condemn Russia's illegal occupation? YES, in the strongest possible terms. It is a reckless action which has harmed innocents and increased global political instability. 1d) Do you support the listing of the Luhansk "People's Republic" and the Donetsk "People's Republic" as terrorist organizations? Do you support listing the Russian Federation as a State sponsor of terrorism for its continuing role in the invasion of eastern Ukraine and the shoot down of flight MH17 in July 2014? NO and NO.

  • Parliamentary Internship Programme 2020-21 Annual Report
    Parliamentary Internship Programme 2020-21 Annual Report Annual General Meeting Canadian Political Science Association June 11, 2021 Dr. Paul Thomas Director Web: pip-psp.org Twitter: @PIP_PSP Instagram: @pip-psp Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/ParlInternship/ PIP Annual Report 2021 Director’s Message I am delighted to present the Parliamentary Internship Programme’s (PIP) 2020-21 Annual Report to the Canadian Political Science Association (CPSA). The COVID-19 pandemic dramatically reshaped the experience of the 2020-21 internship cohort relative to previous years. Such changes began with a mostly-virtual orientation in September, and continued with remote work in their MP placements, virtual study tours, and Brown-Bag lunches over Zoom. Yet while limiting some aspects of the PIP experience, the pandemic provided opportunities as well. The interns took full advantage of the virtual format to meet with academics, politicians, and other public figures who were inaccessible to previous cohorts relying on in-person meetings. They also learned new skills for online engagement that will serve them well in the hybrid work environment that is emerging as COVID-19 recedes. One thing the pandemic could not change was the steadfast support of the PIP’s various partners. We are greatly indebted to our sponsors who chose to prioritize their contributions to PIPs despite the many pressures they faced. In addition to their usual responsibilities for the Programme, both the PIP’s House of Commons Liasion, Scott Lemoine, and the Programme Assistant, Melissa Carrier, also worked tirelessly to ensure that the interns were kept up to date on the changing COVID guidance within the parliamentary preccinct, and to ensure that they had access to the resources they needed for remote work.

  • Slow Senate Start Amid Pandemic a Lesson to Limit Delay Tactics, Says
    Fourni par InfoMédia http://www.infomedia.gc.ca/parl Provided by NewsDesk Publié | Published: 2020-11-04 Hill Times Reçu | Received: 2020-11-04 00:01 (HNE) Slow Senate start amid pandemic a lesson to limit delay tactics, says CSG leader 'Our job is not to play procedural inside baseball around organization of the Senate, and we've done a lot of that, and I'm tired of it,' says Sen. Scott Tannas. Samantha Wright Allen With Senators finally nailing down hybrid sittings and striking committees after months of disagreement that led to limited work during the pandemic, one Senate leader says his colleagues have learned their lesson about capitulating to procedural delays and will likely have "little patience" for such tactics going forward. "Our job is not to play procedural inside baseball around organization of the Senate, and we've done a lot of that, and I'm tired of it. A lot of people are tired of it," said Canadian Senators Group Leader Scott Tannas. One example of that inside baseball played out on Oct. 29, said the Alberta Senator, with the long path to setting up committees coming to an end. The agreement guarantees allocated committee seats stay with various groups rather than individual Senators, which some said leaves powers in leaders' hands and violates the rules granting rights to Senators. The Progressive Senate Group (PSG), the smallest of the four recognized groups, said the vote in the Chamber-held before hybrid sittings were instituted-was done at the expense of giving all Senators a voice, while the other three groups said a clear majority supported the move.

  • What Would the Incise Index Say About Canada Now?
    Optimumonline.ca vol. 49, no. 1 (spring 2019) Integrity as a Required Element of Civil Service Effectiveness – What would the InCiSE Index Say About Canada Now? Ian Peach The International Civil Service Effectiveness (InCiSE) Index is a project of the Blavatnik School of Government and the Institute for Government in the United Kingdom.1 It was designed to analyse the effectiveness of participating countries’ central government civil services because, as the partners explain, “An effective civil service plays an important role in driving forward a country’s progress and prosperity. An ineffective one can act as a brake on these things.”2 The analysis is based on both the “core functions” of governments (the “what” of governing), with the effectiveness of governments in delivering 11 core functions analysed, and the “attributes” of government (the “how” of governing), with six key attributes of good government, which affect the quality of the delivery of core functions, analysed.3 As it is described in the 2017 InCiSE report, “Every civil service has an underlying set of behavioural characteristics or traits which are important drivers of how effectively core functions are delivered, for example levels of openness, integrity and inclusiveness. … Cultivating and displaying these attributes is commonly … understood to be good practice. They are also key determinants of an organisation’s overall effectiveness.”4 One of the six key attributes analysed was “integrity”, which was defined by six themes: corruption level perceptions; adherence to rules and procedures; work ethics; fairness and impartiality; striving to serve citizens and ministers; and processes in place to preserve integrity and prevent conflicts of interest.5 The first InCiSE Index, released in June 2017, ranked Canada’s federal public service as top overall; Canada was also rated fourth in the integrity index, after New Zealand, Sweden and Norway.6 Since then, however, serious questions about the independence and integrity of Canada’s federal public service have arisen.
