  • Policy Arguments for the Economic Sustainability of the Northwest Territories Don Couturier School of Policy Studies and Faculty of Law, Queen’S University
    Getting Beyond Boom and Bust: Policy Arguments for the Economic Sustainability of the Northwest Territories Don Couturier School of Policy Studies and Faculty of Law, Queen’s University ABSTRACT Canadian provinces and territories reliant on natural resource extraction are vulnerable to national and global economic fluctuations, which negatively impacts their economic growth and capacity to maintain quality programs and services for residents. The result is a depressed economy, greater net-debt to GDP ratio, population loss and ultimately, a declining standard of living. This paper charts the precarious fiscal situation facing the Northwest Territories and argues for a multidimensional policy strategy designed to ensure its long-term sustainability in a post-resource world. The author analyzes the scope and nature of the problem, identifies the strengths and limitations of the fiscal policy instruments available to the government, and then proposes a three-part strategy that incorporates elements of technological innovation in service delivery, strategic intergovernmental relations and advancements in land claim agreements with Indigenous governments. The author also considers the rhetorical or argumentative discourse the government might employ to make its business case to the federal government. The purpose of the author’s policy analysis is to propose a shift in emphasis in the way regional governments plan for and manage their economic futures, as well as to highlight the linkages between governments, Indigenous and otherwise, that could yield surprising results for economic development. Resource extraction, an inescapable foundation of most regional economies in Canada, is unsustainable in the long-term. Modern approaches to policy development, which include investments in technology, innovation and capacity- building, represent an important way in which regional governments might overcome their conundrum.

  • Flexibility in the Federal System? Institutional Innovation and Indigenous Nations’ Self-Determination in the US and Canadian Far North
    Flexibility in the Federal System? Institutional Innovation and Indigenous Nations’ Self-Determination in the US and Canadian Far North by Adrienne M. Davidson A thesis submitted in conformity with the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Department of Political Science University of Toronto © Copyright by Adrienne Davidson, 2018 Flexibility in the Federal System? Institutional Innovation and Indigenous Nations’ Self Determination in the US and Canadian Far North Adrienne M. Davidson Doctor of Philosophy Department of Political Science University of Toronto 2018 Abstract Since the early 1970s, Indigenous nations in northern Canada and the United States have secured a heightened level of governing autonomy through the creation of new institutions of self- and shared-rule. While much attention has been devoted to the political factors that allowed for development of these institutions, and their operation within the federal governance framework, this thesis argues that these new institutions have important political implications that have, as yet, been largely unexplored. The settlement of modern land claim agreements, beginning in the 1970s, was a response by the United States and Canadian federal governments to Indigenous demands for self-determination. The decision to settle modern land claim agreements marked a move away from the dominant policy paradigm of assimilation, and into a new paradigm that recognized Indigenous goals for economic self-determination, and which is increasingly responsive to Indigenous demands

Samt at det fremligger en identifisering av sentrale temaer i forhold til involvering av interessenter. Basert på Freemans teori om interessenter har vi identifisert fire nøkkel parter i prosjektet; Industrien, The Aboriginal Pipeline Group, urbefolkning bosatt i området og de Canadiske myndighetene. Vi har analysert arenaene hvor disse partene møtes i dialog om prosjektet og dets implikasjoner for miljø, økonomi og samfunn. Et panel var satt opp for å analysere prosjektets implikasjoner, denne prosessen har vi analysert på bakgrunn i Jacobsen og Ingebrigtsens teori om ”comunicative arena” som gjenspeiler dette panelet. Den empiriske tilnærmingen er basert på intervjuer med de involverte partene i prosjektet samt offentlige rapporter og publiseringer om temaet. De empiriske funnene tilsier at prosjektet og dets prosesser har manglet struktur, budsjett og tidsbegrensninger. Det politiske systemet som regjerer i nord Canada har vi identifisert som komplisert og involverer for mange uavhengige beslutningstakere. Eksterne faktorer som Finanskrisen, introduksjon av skifer gass til markedet og innblanding fra internasjonale og nasjonale politisk uavhengige organisasjoner har ført til at prosjektet har blitt forsinket.
