In March, we will 2275 Bayview Ave. Toronto, Ont.• M4N 3MB see cordial democratic jostling to fill the positions in the 1989-1990 Glendon College Student Union. Next year's student government, whether Glendon's or a fellow college on York Campus, will face the consequences of student autonomy with the enactment of President Harry Arthurs' White Paper. Glendon College is also a faculty and will be less affected. Wider repercussions can only be surmised over at the Keele campus. The recently negotiated associate status with the Council of York Student Federation now means we can no longer shy away from links with other student organizations. In some ways, improved communication will be welcome. Last October's Excalibur referendum showed that our geopolitical alienation poses more cons than pros. We were uninformed, unrespected, and outnumbered at the ballot box. Only by asking back our democratic rights, and going beyond that to implement guidelines for future referenda Volume 28, No.16 did the GCSU president improve upon the previously unfair status quo. Such is the future; policies should originate from Bayview and Lawrence, le 7 février 1989 rather than arriving one-way via intercampus mail.

These conferences take place alternatively in each coun- try, bringing together British and Canadian parliamentarians, public officials, academics, representatives from the private sector, graduate students, and others. The organizers focus on issues of immediate concern to both countries. One of the main endeavours is to stimu- late and publish research in each subject under discussion. The pub- lications listed at the end of the book demonstrate the wide range of topics covered by recent Colloquia. The Colloquia are supported by the Department of Foreign Affairs and International Trade in Canada and by the Foreign and Com- monwealth Office in the United Kingdom. The conferences are or- ganized by the School of Policy Studies at Queen’s University on the Canadian side; and by the Canada-UK Colloquia Committee on the British side, from which an executive board, the Council of Manage- ment, is elected annually. The first Colloquium, attended by some sixty distinguished partici- pants from both countries was held at Cumberland Lodge in Windsor Great Park in 1971 to examine the bilateral relationship.
