Message from the Designated Person June 30, 2010 Section 20A of the Members and Public Employees Disclosure Act (MPEDA) requires publication of annual disclosure statements of political contributions filed with the designated person under Part II of MPEDA. This third year of reporting under Nova Scotia’s new political contributions regime enacted in 2007 addresses reported political contributions to recognized parties, electoral district associations and candidates made during the 2009 calendar year. This is also the first time that a general election (June 9, 2009) as well as two by-elections (October 20, 2009) have occurred during a reporting year giving rise to the requirement that candidates in those elections report political contributions and candidate campaign loans during the elections. These factors add a level of complexity to the management, disclosure, review and reporting under the political contributions regime. This annual report also reflects the level of compliance (timeliness of filings and quality of reports filed) with MPEDA and its regulations by recognized parties, electoral district associations and candidates for the reporting year. Complete and timely disclosure and reporting as prescribed by MPEDA and the Political Contributions Disclosure Regulations are intended to provide transparency respecting the financial activities of recognized parties, electoral district associations and candidates. Timeliness of filing in a number of cases continues to be problematic; quality of reports filed is improving but considerable interaction between those reporting and Elections Nova Scotia is required to address quality issues in the reports. Elections Nova Scotia does not have the comprehensive mandate or the resources to undertake a detailed review of all the reports required to be filed. This annual report highlights the support provided by Elections Nova Scotia to official agents of candidates and recognized parties and the financial support available to electoral district associations to assist them in record keeping and in meeting their reporting obligations. The report reproduces the disclosure statements as originally filed (or as originally filed and subsequently amended) by the official agents of recognized parties, electoral district associations and candidates and identifies areas where the regime continues to present significant challenges. There are no prescribed standards for the quality of the information disclosed and, aside from the deregistration process applicable to recognized parties and electoral district associations under the Elections Act, there are no direct consequences under MPEDA for failure to fully comply within the time limits prescribed for filing reports. The fragmentation and gaps in the electoral finance legislation are a matter of consideration in the legislative review currently being conducted by Elections Nova Scotia as mandated by Resolution No. 645, passed by the House of Assembly in the fall of 2009. Political Contributions Regime Annual Report, January 1, 2009 to December 31, 2009 Amendments to MPEDA (S.N.S. 2009, c.19) prohibiting political contributions except by individuals resident in Nova Scotia (which received Royal Assent on November 5, 2009) do not come into effect until January 1, 2010 and thus had no impact on reporting for the 2009 calendar year. Christine McCulloch, Q.C. Chief Electoral Officer and Designated Person under the Members and Public Employees Disclosure Act Political Contributions Regime Annual Report, January 1, 2009 to December 31, 2009 2. Elections Nova Scotia Review Process 2.1 Political Contributions Rules The Members and Public Employees Disclosure Act (MPEDA), the Political Contributions Disclosure Regulations, the Elections Act and the Income Tax Act and the Deduction Regulations made under the Income Tax Act establish the rules under which a recognized party, electoral district association and a candidate can accept political contributions, make or give loans and issue tax receipts. The legislation also mandates reporting forms (Political Contributions Disclosure Regulations) or provides the Chief Electoral Officer with the authority to prescribe forms (Elections Act). The legislation also establishes reporting deadlines for filing reports. The March 2, 2007 amendments to MPEDA established contribution limits for the first time in Nova Scotia. An eligible contributor may contribute a maximum of $5,000 in each calendar year to each recognized party including affiliated electoral district associations and candidates. Since contributions are cumulative (all contributions from a single contributor must be added together) it is imperative that an official agent record the names and addresses of a contributor even if the contribution is under the

Over the past six months we have met with many people who graciously gave of their time, on our schedule, to share their expertise on this topic. We express our thanks to Steven R. Wolff and John Ross of the Nova Scotia Pension Agency, Gordon D. Hebb, Q.c., Chief legislative Counsel and Mel Bartlett, Partner, Morneau Shepell limited and the many people in his office who worked tirelessly on this project. We greatly appreciated the written submissions received from Nova Scotians and from former MlAs. Current and retired MlAs spoke with us candidly and privately of their experiences. This input helped guide us in our deliberations. We are of the view that MlAs have a unique and demanding job in today's Nova Scotia and as a result their retirement package must be reasonable, fair and transparent.

  • Ruth Mcculloch & George William States
    Ruth McCulloch & George William States The marriage between Ruth McCulloch & George William States is of an interesting note. I point this marriage out because it is an inter-racial marriage. Nothing to note in our generation but, in 1855 when Ruth and George married, it sure was. Ruth was 40 years of age and George was a few years younger. George is listed in the 1871 census for Mt. Denison as being of African origin. There is no telling if he was an inter-racial child himself as the records either do not exist or are not accessible or online to find right now. Black slave history is not something many people like to talk about. There is still an element of racism that resides in Nova Scotia, there usually is where ever you go if you look. I wanted to ensure this is not over looked. Not all white people were slave owners and not all black or African people were slaves. The area where Ruth and George lived, Mt. Denison, was named after the Denison family who moved from New England. Robert Denison died with an inventory of 5 black slaves in 1765. While some might think George's family could be from this line, after speaking with David States, a family and life-long historian, (and my 5th cousin), I believe this States family were from a “free” line from New York area. There is some evidence, but not concrete, to confirm the theory that the States name may be attributed to a Dutch family called Statts.
