STUDENT ADVISORY COMMITTEE SUMMARY of DISCUSSIONS – May 7, 2015 - 2
THE WINNIPEG SCHOOL DIVISION STUDENT ADVISORY COMMITTEE SUMMARY OF DISCUSSIONS – MAY 7, 2015 1. APPROVAL OF AGENDA The Committee members approved the Meeting Agenda of May 7, 2015, as distributed. 2. INTERAC PAYMENT At a previous meeting, Committee members agreed to discuss Interac Payment Options/Automated Banking Machines in schools. Mr. Doug Edmond, Director of Research, Planning & Systems Management was in attendance to provide an overview on electronic payments in the Winnipeg School Division. Committee members were informed that as a result of previous discussions at Student Advisory Committee meetings, regarding automated banking machines, administration has obtained information regarding the viability of placing Automated Banking Machines (ATM) in schools. Committee members were informed that the cost to acquire an ATM is approximately $4,000. In addition to the cost of the machine, whether purchased outright or leased, the customer is responsible for the costs of installation including electrical and internet or telephone communication hook-ups, anchoring/placement, and security. The replenishment of cash to the machine is usually the responsibility of the customer although some third-party services may be available. The customers generate revenues from the machine by charging a user transaction fee which ranges between $1.00 and $1.75. Administration has previously contacted high schools in the Winnipeg School Division and the cafeterias in most schools are operated through a food service contractor who offers interact as a method of payment. At least one school indicated that a cash-back option is available with a $1.50 charge. In the review conducted, other considerations regarding ATM’s were noted. -

The Fragility of Fear: the Contentious Politics of Emotion and Security in Canada
The Fragility of Fear: the Contentious Politics of Emotion and Security in Canada by Eric Van Rythoven A thesis submitted to the Faculty of Graduate and Postdoctoral Affairs in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy In Political Science Carleton University Ottawa, Ontario ©2017, Eric Van Rythoven Abstract International Relations (IR) theory commonly holds security arguments as powerful instruments of political mobilization because they work to instill, circulate, and intensify popular fears over a threat to a community. Missing from this view is how security arguments often provoke a much wider range of emotional reactions, many of which frustrate and constrain state officials’ attempts to frame issues as security problems. This dissertation offers a corrective by outlining a theory of the contentious politics of emotion and security. Drawing inspiration from a variety of different social theorists of emotion, including Goffman’s interactionist sociology, this approach treats emotions as emerging from distinctive repertoires of social interaction. These emotions play a key role in enabling audiences to sort through the sound and noise of security discourse by indexing the significance of different events to our bodies. Yet popular emotions are rarely harmonious; they’re socialized and circulated through a myriad of different pathways. Different repertoires of interaction in popular culture, public rituals, and memorialization leave audiences with different ways of feeling about putative threats. The result is mixed and contentious emotions which shape both opportunities and constraints for new security policies. The empirical purchase of this theory is illustrated with two cases drawn from the Canadian context: indigenous protest and the F-35 procurement. -
