C Title of Thesis/Dissertation: Past Problems and Current Issues in Canadian Telecommunication Policy: A Sense of Deja Vu Author : - Regina Marie Costa name September 25, 1987 date iii Abstract This thesis examinies historical concerns regarding telephone service and their ramifications for current telecommunication policy issues. Since 1906, federally chartered telephone companies have been regulated to ensure that rates charged for service are "just and reasonable" and in "the public interest." The thesis identifies conflicting notions of how the public interest could best be served, as the notions were manifest in historical debates regarding the extension of service, federal regulation and the capitalization of telephone companies. Historical material is drawn from the 1905 proceedings of the House of Commons Select Committee on Telephones and Debates of the House of Commons from 1903 through 1967. A case study of Bell Canada's contract to provide a telephone system for the Government of the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia is presented to demonstrate the contemporary manifestation of historical policy concerns. The thesis raises three major questions that have emerged repeatedly throughout the years regarding the regulation of federal!y charted telephone companies: 1) whether the corporate objectives of private firms might conflict with "the public interest;" 2) whether regulators have had adequate power to review aspects of telephone. company operations which are essential for effective regulation; and 3) whether regulators have adequate power to regulate provision of service. Based on the historical material and the more recent case study, the thesis argues that while the scope of regulation has widened in recent years as the current regulatory agency employed a broader interpretation of its mandate, the historical problems identified above remain and are manifest in current regulatory and policy issues. This is due to partially conflicting assumptions, evident as early as 1905, regarding telephone companies and the publlc interest. With the emerging emphasis on the "information economy," today, telephone companies are deemed important to industrial policy objectives because of their central role in the telecommunication infrastructure and their relationship with manufacturing and consulting subsidiaries which compete in international markets. Promotion of industrial policy objectives partially conflicts with the process of rate of return regulation. The thesis briefly discusses implications of continuing problems for current debates regarding rate restructuring. .. Acknowledgements I wish to thank my senior supervisor, Professor Liora Salter, for her guidance, constructive criticism, loyalty and multi-faceted support. In addition to supervising my thesis, Liora has provided me with seven years of training as a policy researcher in the classroom and on a. variety of research projects. For this and everything else I am most grateful. Peter Anderson was always available to discuss the issues and critique my work and I thank him for this and for his friendship. I am grateful to Professor Robert Anderson for his constructive critique and inciteful comments regarding industrial policy issues. I am also indebted to Dr. Robin Mansell for her thorough critique of the study, to Professor Dallas Smythe for providing me with a background in the political economy of communication and to Professor William Melody for several years of instruction and counsel regarding telecommunication regulatory and policy issues and the opportunity to contribute to projects in this field. This thesis is one of several tangible and intangible results stemming from seven years as an undergraduate and graduate student in the Department of Communication, Simon Fraser University. The Department has provided a - stimulating environment for intellectual and political activity. Of the many people who contributed to this, Robin Mansell, Rohan Samarajiwa, Peter Cook, Jane Walker, Marguerite Vogel, Debbie McGee, Lynne Hissey, Laurie Jones, Ron Trepanier, Pamela Parford and Lucie Menkveld have special significance to me.

Introduction This study began with a question. What aspects of current debates regarding telephone policy issues are present in historical debates regarding federal telephone policy? This question arose because although there is currently a great deal of public debate regarding telephone issues, which has been accompanied by numerous academic papers and Government-sponsored research studies, little if any effort has been devoted to placing current policy debates in an historical perspective. An initial review of papers, research studies, books and parliamentary material regarding historical telephone issues showed that many issues currently being debated, such as extension of service,

  • The Four Courts of Sir Lyman Duff
    THE FOUR COURTS OF SIR LYMAN DUFF RICHARD GOSSE* Vancouver I. Introduction. Sir Lyman Poore Duff is the dominating figure in the Supreme Court of Canada's first hundred years. He sat on the court for more than one-third of those years, in the middle period, from 1906 to 1944, participating in nearly 2,000 judgments-and throughout that tenure he was commonly regarded as the court's most able judge. Appointed at forty-one, Duff has been the youngest person ever to have been elevated to the court. Twice his appointment was extended by special Acts of Parliament beyond the mandatory retirement age of seventy-five, a recogni- tion never accorded to any other Canadian judge. From 1933, he sat as Chief Justice, having twice previously-in 1918 and 1924 - almost succeeded to that post, although on those occasions he was not the senior judge. During World War 1, when Borden considered resigning over the conscription issue and recommending to the Governor General that an impartial national figure be called upon to form a government, the person foremost in his mind was Duff, although Sir Lyman had never been elected to public office. After Borden had found that he had the support to continue himself, Duff was invited to join the Cabinet but declined. Mackenzie King con- sidered recommending Duff for appointment as the first Canadian Governor General. Duff undertook several inquiries of national interest for the federal government, of particular significance being the 1931-32 Royal Commission on Transportation, of which he was chairman, and the 1942 investigation into the sending of Canadian troops to Hong Kong, in which he was the sole commissioner .

    backhouse 02text (xi-322) 4/22/04 4:06 PM Page 3 INTRODUCTION Y about to meet Mrs. Elizabeth Bethune Campbell, a woman of formidable intellect, wit, and sarcasm, with the determination of steel. Her book, Where Angels Fear to Tread, written in and self- published in from her home in the rectory of St. John’s Episcopalian Church in Jamaica Plain, Boston, raised considerable controversy when it first appeared. Mrs. Campbell’s fascinating entan- glement with the law spanned fourteen years. It began in , when she first came across an unsigned copy of her mother’s will while sort- ing through musty family trunks. The saga peaked in , when Mrs. Campbell appeared on her own behalf to argue her case in front of the Judicial Committee of the Privy Council in London. The legal battle finally ended in , when the Ontario Court of Appeal issued its last decision on the matter of costs relating to the complex web of litiga- tion spawned by Mrs. Campbell’s inheritance. The story that Mrs. Campbell tells is extraordinary, and not only because she appears to have been the first woman to argue in front of the Law Lords at the Privy Council. Mrs. Campbell’s description of the barriers she surmounted before emerging victorious in England unveils the intricate, multilayered world of overlapping intrigue and influence that constituted the early-twentieth-century Ontario legal system. From her unique vantage point as both an insider and an out- sider, she comments on the actions of lawyers and judges with acuity and perspicacity. Others might have thought as she did.

  • Introducing Darwinism to Toronto's Post-1887 Reconstituted
    Introducing Darwinism to Toronto’s Post-1887 Reconstituted Medical School JOHN P. M. COURT “The boys sang their best songs and cheered with renewed vigour.” —The Mail (Toronto), 1890 Abstract. Charles Darwin’s scientific paradigm was largely welcomed in Cana- dian academic biology and medicine, while reaction among other faculty and laypeople ranged from interest to outrage. In 1874, Ramsay Wright, a Darwin- ian-era biologist from Edinburgh, was appointed to the University of Toronto’s Chair of Natural History. Over his 38-year career Wright integrated the evolu- tionary perspective into medical and biology teaching without accentuating its controversial source. He also applied the emerging German experimental research model and laboratory technology. This study identifies five categories of scientific and personal influences upon Wright through archival research on biographical sources and his writings. Keywords. natural history, biology, Darwinian evolution, medical education Résumé. Les théories de Charles Darwin ont été largement acceptées au Canada en médecine et en biologie, alors que les réactions au sein d’autres dis- ciplines et parmi la population allaient de l’intérêt à l’indignation. En 1874, Ramsay Wright, un biologiste d’Édinbourg, devint titulaire de la chaire d’his- toire naturelle à l’Université de Toronto. Pendant 38 ans de carrière, Wright a intégré la perspective évolutionniste dans son enseignement en médecine et en biologie, mais sans faire part de sa source controversée. Il a aussi utilisé la tech- nologie de laboratoire et le modèle de recherche expérimentale allemands, alors en émergence. Cette étude identifie cinq catégories d’influences personnelles et scientifiques perceptibles chez Wright, partant de ses écrits et de documents d’archives à caractère biographique.
