  • Reforming Education: from Origins to Outcomes

    Reforming Education: from Origins to Outcomes

    Reforming Education Ambitious programs of education reform have been introduced by many governments around the world. Reforming Education is an important study of large-scale education reform in five different settings: England, New Zealand, the Canadian provinces of Alberta and Manitoba and the US state of Minnesota. The book looks at a variety of reforms, covering: • school choice; • charter schools; • increased testing of students; • stricter curriculum guidelines; • local school management. Drawing from theoretical and empirical work in education, political theory, organizational theory and public administration, Reforming Education provides a clearly developed conceptual framework for analyzing reform programs. The author reviews the political origins of the reforms, the process of adop- tion into law, the implementation processes used to support the reforms, and the results of the reforms for students, schools and communities. The explicit political and comparative orientation of Reforming Education enables readers to look at reforms across different settings and to make judgements about the assumptions, processes and outcomes in large-scale reforms. It will be of interest to those working in education policy or public policy. Benjamin Levin is Deputy Minister of Education and Training for the Province of Manitoba. He is also a Professor of Educational Administration at the University of Manitoba. His research interests are in education policy, politics and economics.

    Controversy Surrounding the Environment Amendment Act: Balancing the Risk of West Nile Virus Over Malathion Fogging

    Controversy Surrounding The Environment Amendment Act: Balancing the Risk of West Nile Virus Over Malathion Fogging LEAH ROSS My wife and I get sick when the pesticide trucks come around every year. We don’t need to hear when our area is being fogged—we can feel it in our legs, a dull ache that tells us the poison truck has come. We have tried to get our house taken off the list, and the city has duly recorded our name and address, but it has no effect. The guys on the truck just spray everything, including people’s vegetable gardens. Once my wife saw them spray our house and ran outside to tell them we were supposed to be missed. The guy on the truck noticed her, turned around… and sprayed her with the fog…. Another night we saw them playing with the neighbour’s dog, who likes chasing water hoses and figured, somewhere in his tiny dog brain, that he was playing the same game. He cheerfully chased the spray around his dog pad, his muzzle dripping with malathion. The truck had stopped so that the sprayer could play this game for a minute or two. We never bothered to complain, figuring that if they weren’t going to respect our wish to be bypassed, they weren’t going to investigate our complaint. It’s our word against theirs.1 I. INTRODUCTION innipeg is known as the mosquito capital of Canada and “in the summer of 2001,West Nile Virus was recognized as an W emerging public health threat”.2 As a result, provincial and civic officials pumped millions of dollars into fighting the bugs by helicopter and on foot.

  • Manitoba's Progressive Conservative Party

    Manitoba's Progressive Conservative Party

    Manitoba’s Progressive Conservative Party: A “Great Renewal” or Continued Disarray? Paper presented to the Roblin Professorship Conference - Manitoba Politics, Government and Policy into the 21st Century November 2008 Draft Working Paper – Please do no cite without permission from the author Kelly L. Saunders, Ph.D. Department of Political Science Brandon University Brandon, MB [email protected] I. Introduction At the annual general meeting of the Manitoba Progressive Conservative Party held last spring, leader Hugh McFadyen acknowledged that while it had had some disappointing setbacks, the Party was nonetheless on the verge of a “great renewal”. In light of the Party’s diminishing fortunes over the past decade, and most recently in the May 2007 election when it suffered its worst electoral showing since 1953, McFadyen’s attempts to instill hope in his Party’s faithful is understandable. Whether the Party is simply experiencing the ebb and flow natural to all political organizations, or is suffering from a deeper, more serious malaise, however, remains disputable. What is clear is that the Conservatives, as they enter the 21st century, are at a turning point in their history. The extent to which it is able to overcome its current woes, and be viewed as a credible and realistic alternative to the governing New Democrats by a wider proportion of Manitobans, is the fundamental question before the Party today. It is also the focus of this paper. In addressing the varied challenges confronting the P.C. Party as it enters the new millennium, the paper will draw on interviews with party insiders as well as a variety of primary and secondary documents1.
