Administrative History: He moved to Ottawa in 1982 to attend Carleton University, graduating with a Bachelor of Journalism in 1987. In 1986 Cashore began working for author John Sawatsky on a book on the Ottawa lobbying industry, where he first began investigating the Airbus affair. In 1987, Cashore continued working with Sawatsky as a research associate on his book, "Mulroney : the politics of ambition." During the "Mulroney" project Cashore cultivated sources in the Prime Minister's inner circle, some of whom would prove valuable in later years as the Airbus story gained momentum. Cashore was hired as a researcher in the Ottawa bureau of the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation (CBC) in 1989, later returning to work on the Mulroney biography published in 1991. That year he joined CBC's "The Fifth estate" as a researcher, becoming an associate producer in 1993 and a producer in 1995. He also worked as producer and senior editor for the CBC's "Disclosure," a television series devoted to investigative journalism. Cashore now serves as senior producer for CBC News' Special Investigations Unit. Cashore's investigative work has garnered nominations and awards from the Canadian Association of Journalists, Investigative Reporters and Editors (IRE), the Canadian Bar Association, the Hillman Foundation, the Michener Awards Foundation, the Geminis and the Screen Awards. He is also the co-author (with Stevie Cameron) of "The Last amigo : Karlheinz Schreiber and the anatomy of a scandal" (2001), which received the Best Crime Non-Fiction Book of the Year Arthur Ellis Award (Crime Writers' of Canada), and author of "The Truth shows up : a reporter's fifteen-year odyssey tracking down the truth about Mulroney, Schreiber and the Airbus scandal" (2010). Scope and Content: Fonds consists of records documenting Harvey Cashore's work as a journalist, writer and television producer throughout three decades of covering the Airbus story, including work on four books and several documentaries for CBC's "The Fifth estate," all of which formed a personal storyline documented in his 2010 book, "The Truth shows up," about his experiences investigating Airbus, Karlheinz Schreiber and Brian Mulroney. These records are primarily research files, which include correspondence, newspaper and magazine articles, notes, transcripts, government documents, photographs and audio cassettes, as well as manuscripts for "The Truth shows up." S00631 The Truth shows up research files Language of material note: Some items are written in German. Restrictions on Access to recordings and transcripts of interviews conducted by Harvey Cashore Access and Use: is restricted for 30 years after the date of the interview.

CANADA (ATTORNEY GENERAL) 207 SCHREIBER v. CANADA (ATTORNEY GENERAL) BY ROBERT J. CURRIEt The Airbus scandal has been a matter of fairly intense political interest since initial allegations of influence-peddling were made against several parties, including former Prime Minister Brian Mulroney. 1 Of legal note, however, has been a challenge mounted by another party implicated by the Department of Justice's investigation into the matter, which has recently been pronounced upon by the Supreme Court of Canada. The Court's judgment in Schreiber v. Canada (Attorney General) 2 provides an interesting view of conflicting societal values: the Charter-guaranteed freedom from unreasonable search and seizure raised in opposition to the state's interest in efficient and unfettered means through which to combat crime with a transnational aspect. The Schreiber case is significant as an indicator both of the Court's evolving view of the limits of the application of the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms, 3 and of the Court's perception of the course being charted for Canada's participation in the fight against international crime.

  • Wendy Hui-Kyong Chun
    final version published in differences: A Journal of Feminist Cultural Studies 11.1 (1999) 112-149 Unbearable Witness: Toward a Politics of Listening Wendy Hui Kyong Chun * On Wednesday, 6 December 1989, around 5 P.M., Marc Lepine (né Gamil Roderigue Gharbi) dressed in hunting garb entered a classroom in the École Polytechnique. Disturbing a presentation by Eric Chavarie, he waved a .22- caliber rifle and ordered the men and women into opposite corners of the classroom. Thinking it was a joke arranged to relieve the tedium of the last hour of the term, no one moved. A single gunshot persuaded them otherwise. Next, Lepine ordered the men to leave. Alone with the women, he stated, "I am here to fight against feminism that is why I am here." Nathalie Provost, a 23- year-old mechanical engineering student, argued, "Look, we are just women studying engineering, not necessarily feminists ready to march on the streets to shout we are against men, just students intent on leading a normal life." Lepine responded, "You're women, you're going to be engineers. You're all a bunch of feminists. I hate feminists." He then opened fire, killing six women- -and closing the discussion. After leaving the classroom, Lepine stalked through the halls of the school saying, "I want the women." Lepine killed himself at approximately 5:35 p.m., his gun still loaded and the police not yet in sight. The total death count: fourteen women and Marc Lepine. And then the discussion reopened. The unexpected horror of this "American-style carnage" (Pelletier 33) shocked most Canadians and defied them to make sense of the worst one-day massacre in Canadian history.

  • The Conflict Between the Harper Conservatives and the Federal Bureaucracy
    DRAFT for discussion only Not for publication without the permission of the author Strained Relations: The Conflict Between the Harper Conservatives and the Federal Bureaucracy Brooke Jeffrey Department of Political Science Concordia University Abstract A series of highly publicized confrontations between the Harper Conservatives and senior government officials, as well as their direct intervention in the operation of arms’ length agencies, elimination of advisory bodies and rejection of expert advice, have led many observers to conclude the Harper government is at war with its public service. These developments raise a number of broader questions. Is the Harper government’s troubled relationship with the federal bureaucracy merely a continuation of a trend established by previous Conservative governments, based on suspicion, mistrust and a deep-seated conviction that the public service is biased in favour of the Liberal Party? Or does it reflect a significant departure from the norm, grounded in differing values and beliefs about the appropriate role of government and public servants? Using empirical evidence and a comparative methodology, this paper will examine the record of the Mulroney and Harper governments in light of five fundamental principles of a modern merit-based bureaucracy – neutrality, anonymity, professional expertise, rules-based decision-making, and arms’-length relationships – in an effort to determine whether the Harper Conservatives are indeed taking a qualitatively different approach to the bureaucracy and the machinery of government. Canadian Political Science Association 2011 Annual Conference Waterloo, Ontario May 17, 2011 “The reality is that we will have for some time to come,,, a Liberal civil service…” Conservative Party leader Stephen Harper January 17, 2006 Introduction When Stephen Harper and the Conservative Party came to power in 2006 public servants were already wary of his new government.
