Faite de vermeil, elle mesure 4 pieds de hauteur et pèse environ 18 livres. Ses quatre faces représentent respectivement la couronne royale, les armoiries de la Nouvelle Écosse, le grand sceau actuel de la province (celui conféré avant la Confédération) et la silhouette d’un Président vêtu de ses habits officiels. Sont également gravés sur la masse la fleur de mai, emblème floral de la Nouvelle Écosse, et le chardon écossais. La masse a été fabriquée en Angleterre par Elkington and Company, Limited. M. et Mme Harris souhaitaient que leur don de la masse reste anonyme. Le premier ministre de l’époque a respecté leur désir, mais a demandé que leur legs puisse être reconnu ultérieurement au moyen d’une inscription gravée sur la masse. Par conséquent, dans son testament, le juge en chef a chargé ses exécuteurs de faire graver l’inscription suivante sur la masse et d’assumer les coûts des travaux à même sa succession : « Cette masse fut présentée à la Chambre d’assemblée de la province de la Nouvelle Écosse par l’honorable Robert E. Harris, juge en chef de la Nouvelle Écosse, et par Mme Harris, en mars 1930.

  • Political Family Tree: Kinship in Canada’S Parliament
    Canadian eview V olume 41, No. 1 Political Family Tree: Kinship in Canada’s Parliament 2 CANADIAN PARLIAMENTARY REVIEW/SPRING 2017 The current Mace of the Nova Scotia House of Assembly has been in use since it was gifted to the House on March 5, 1930 by Chief Justice Robert Edward Harris, the fourteenth Chief Justice of the Province and his wife. It is silver gilt, measuring four feet in height and weighs approximately 18 pounds. The four sides of the Mace depict the Royal Crown, the Armorial Achievement of Nova Scotia, the present (before Confederation) Great Seal of the Province, and the Speaker in his robes of office. Also found on the Mace is the floral emblem of Nova Scotia, the mayflower and the Scottish thistle. The Mace was manufactured in England by Elkington and Company, Limited. The Chief Justice and Mrs. Harris wanted to remain anonymous donors of the Mace, but the Premier, in agreeing to this, requested that someday a suitable inscription be made on the Mace. Thus, in his will the Chief Justice directed his executors to have the Mace engraved with the following inscription and to pay the cost for the engraving out of his estate: “This mace was presented to the House of Assembly of the Province of Nova Scotia by the Hon. Robert E. Harris, Chief Justice of Nova Scotia, and Mrs. Harris, March 1930”. The Chief Justice passed away on May 30, 1931. Annette M. Boucher Assistant Clerk 2 CANADIAN PARLIAMENTARY REVIEW/SPRING 2017 Kudryashka/Shutterstock.com/790257076 The Canadian Parliamentary Review was founded in 1978 to inform Canadian legislators about activities of the federal, provincial and territorial branches of the Canadian Region of the Commonwealth Parliamentary Association and to promote the study of and interest in Canadian parliamentary institutions.

    kNK5 moZos3=x Nunavut Maligaliurvia Legislative Assembly of Nunavut Assemblée législative du Nunavut R E L E A S E Members of the 5th Legislative Assembly Identify Goals and Priorities IQALUIT, Nunavut (February 26, 2018) - The Legislative Assembly of Nunavut’s Full Caucus successfully concluded its Pond Inlet Retreat on February 23, 2018. Premier Paul Quassa said, “Turaaqtavut reflects a collaborative and collective approach to defining our government’s mandate for the next four years. Our deliberations in Pond Inlet built on the Cabinet’s work to date and afforded Members of the Legislative Assembly with the opportunity to articulate and advance priorities for their constituencies and the territory as a whole.” Turaaqtavut establishes a number of broad thematic priorities, including: Working towards community and social well-being through Inuusivut; Developing the territory’s economy and infrastructure base through Pivaallirutivut; Strengthening education and training through Sivummuaqpalliajjutivut; Recognizing Nunavut as a distinct territory in Canada and the world through Inuunivut; and Building closer partnerships with the Government of Canada and Inuit organizations through Katujjiqatigiinnivut. Turaaqtavut will be tabled in the Legislative Assembly at the opening of the 2nd Session of the 5th Legislative Assembly, which will follow the consideration of the proposed 2018-2019 capital estimates during the upcoming winter sitting of the House. Members also confirmed that statutorily-required reviews of the Official Languages Act, the Inuit Language Protection Act and the Representative for Children and Youth Act will be conducted during the life of the 5th Legislative Assembly. This review will also consider the advisability of establishing a new ombudsperson position for the territory.
