Immediate POLICE assistance is needed when reporting a crime in progress or a life- threatening or violent situation. Immediate FIRE assistance is needed when reporting a fire at home or any other location. Immediate AMBULANCE assistance is needed when immediate medical attention or transport is needed for victims of serious accidents or illness such as heart attack.

Selecting Women to Lead Provincial Parties in Government By Melanee Thomas Associate Professor Department of Political Science University of Calgary 2500 University Drive NW Calgary, AB T2N 1N4 Abstract: The majority of Canada’s women premiers were selected to that office while their parties held government. This is uncommon, both in the comparative literature and amongst premiers who are men. What explains this gendered selection pattern to Canada’s provincial premiers’ offices? This paper explores the most common explanation found in the comparative literature for women’s emergence as leaders of electorally competitive parties and as chief political executives: women are more likely to be selected when that party is in crisis or decline. Using the population of women provincial premiers in Canada as case studies, evidence suggests 3 of 8 women premiers were selected to lead parties in government that were in crisis or decline; a fourth was selected to lead a small, left-leaning party as predicted by the literature.

    Canadian eview V olume 42, No. 4 Right to BaRe Arms Dress Guidelines in British Columbia’s Legislative Assembly p. 6 2 CANADIAN PARLIAMENTARY REVIEW/SUMMER 2019 There are many examples of family members sitting in parliaments at the same time. However, the first father-daughter team to sit together in a legislative assembly did not happen in Canada until 1996. That is when Sue Edelman was elected to the 29th Yukon Legislative Assembly, joining her re-elected father, Ivan John “Jack” Cable. Mr. Cable moved to the North in 1970 after obtaining degrees in Chemical Engineering, a Master’s in Business Administration and a Bachelor of Laws in Ontario. He practiced law in Whitehorse for 21 years, and went on to serve as President of the Yukon Chamber of Commerce, President of the Yukon Energy Corporation and Director of the Northern Canada Power Commission. He is also a founding member of the Recycle Organics Together Society and the Boreal Alternate Energy Centre. Mr. Cable’s entry into electoral politics came in 1992, when he successfully won the riding of Riverdale in East Whitehorse to take his seat in the Yukon Legislative Assembly. Ms. Edelman’s political presence had already been established by the time her father began his term as an MLA. In 1988, she became a Whitehorse city councillor, a position she held until 1994. In her 1991 reelection, she received more votes for her council seat than mayor Bill Weigand received. Following her time on city council, she was elected to the Selkirk Elementary School council. In the 1996 territorial election, she ran and won in the Riverdale South riding.

  • Prince Edward Island
    Prince Edward Island Population – 140,402 Total Area – 5,684 km2 Population Density – 24.7 people/km2 Capital (Population) – Charlottetown (58,625) Number of K-12 Schools – 64 (2007-08) Number of K-12 Students – 20,813 (2007-08) Prince Edward Island is the smallest province in Canada, joined to the mainland portion of the country by the Confederation Bridge (a 13 km long span from Borden-Carleton, Prince Edward Island to Cape Jourimain, New Brunswick). K-12 Online Learning Category Yes/No Comments Province-led programme Yes Video conferencing Other online programmes Yes Programmes from other provinces Provincial-level policy Yes Online Programmes Prince Edward Island does have a video conferencing system that is available for use for distance education, although it appears that this system receives little use for this purpose. In addition to the provincial video conferencing system, students in Prince Edward Island have the ability to access some online courses offered by the New Brunswick Ministry of Education. During the 2009-10 school year there were 11 french-language students and 23 English-language students enroled in eight online courses. Governance and Regulation There is no mention of distance education in the provincial Schools Act. However, in 2001 the Ministry of Education issued Ministerial Directive No. MD 2001-05 establishing guidelines for the use of distance education within the K-12 system. These provisions were superceded in August 2008 by Ministerial Directive No. MD 2008-05, which applies only to courses delivered during the regular school day, broadly defines distance education, and outlines a series of beliefs about the nature of distance education instruction.

Welcome to our historic and beautiful City. Charlottetown is a major tourist destination and we understand the importance of beautification to our local economy. In 2014 Charlottetown was named the number one tourism destination in Canada by vacay.com. Our tourism numbers continue to rise each year and Charlottetown, the Capital City, continues to work hard to ensure our City remains clean, tidy, and at the same time recognizes the importance of community development and environmental awareness to the overall growth of our community. On behalf of City Council and the residents of this City, I hope that you enjoy the itinerary provided to you; enjoy our knowledgeable and hospitable staff and please do not hesitate to provide your input and suggestions to our staff on how we can improve ourselves going forward. In 2017, in recognition of Canada’s 150th Birthday, we celebrate this beautiful country we call Canada. We are proud to be Canadian. On your drive around you will see many initiatives to recognize Canada 150. Yours truly, Clifford J.
