  • Deputy Ministers And'politicization in the Government of Canada: Lessons Learned from the 2006-2007 Conservative Transition
    DEPUTY MINISTERS AND'POLITICIZATION IN THE GOVERNMENT OF CANADA: LESSONS LEARNED FROM THE 2006-2007 CONSERVATIVE TRANSITION by SHANNON LEIGH WELLS B.A (Hons) Dalhousie University, 2005 A THESIS SUBMITTED IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF MASTER OF ARTS in THE FACULTY OF GRADUATE STUDIES (Political Science) THE UNIVERSITY OF BRITISH COLUMBIA August 2007 © Shannon Leigh Wells, 2007 Abstract This thesis analyses the 2006-07 Conservative transition in the Government of Canada by asking the following: is there evidence of overt partisan politicization of the deputy ministers during this transition? Significantly, there is no evidence of overt politicization. Harper has not forced departure of incumbent deputy ministers, nor has he appointed a significant number of known partisan allies from outside the public service. Instead, Harper has retained the overwhelming majority of deputy ministers who served the previous Liberal government. However, the 2006-07 transition also suggests considerable lateral career mobility of deputy ministers within the highest levels of government. The thesis argues that lateral mobility is explained by the "corporate" governance structure in the government of Canada, according to which deputy ministers are expected to identify with the government's broad policy goals and mobilize support for them. High degrees of lateral mobility during the Conservative transition provide evidence to suggest that a potentially rigid bureaucratic system can be made responsive to the policy priorities of a new government without compromising the professional norms of a non-partisan, career public service. ii Table of Contents Abstract ii Table of Contents > iii List of Tables.

The subject of Ageing was chosen in agreement with the Canadian and UK Governments. The letter of support received from the then British Prime Minister, reproduced here, attests to the importance of the topic to both countries as a focus of policy. Thanks are due to our respective committee members and advisers for their help and support in preparing this colloquium, and to Lord Filkin for his skilful chairmanship. We would also like to honour the memory of John Wyn Owen, who sadly passed away shortly after the meeting. He was a very good friend to CUKC, and it was entirely due to his energy and initiative that the briefing day was held in St John’s College, so beloved by him. Special thanks are due to our sponsors whose names and logos are on the back cover of this Report. The meeting could not have taken place without their support. Finally, we are grateful to Ashwin Kumar for taking on the onerous job of reporting on our deliberations.
