It is a convention which is at the heart of parliament and it is contemptuous for the government to have waited for over 652 days to satisfy that important tradition. Ï (1015) What exactly is going on with this budget exercise? The government is floating trial balloons about another budget coming We must invest more in customs and immigration services, down perhaps next February or March.

That is not adequate. We are talking about a national security and the protection of citizens. That is the first downpayment on restoring security to Canada and Canadians. obligation of a federal government. That is an obligation which for too long has been sloughed off by the government. We will first be looking to see whether or not the government gets Let me say that $3 billion could be achieved notwithstanding the its priorities straight in terms of reallocating resources from low and zero sum mentality of the government without increasing overall falling priority areas to the urgently imperative priorities of national spending. We could achieve that by reallocating fiscal resources security and defence. Our defence capability and security services from low and falling priorities.

    THE LIMITS TO INFLUENCE: THE CLUB OF ROME AND CANADA, 1968 TO 1988 by JASON LEMOINE CHURCHILL A thesis presented to the University of Waterloo in fulfilment of the thesis requirement for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in History Waterloo, Ontario, Canada, 2006 © Jason Lemoine Churchill, 2006 Declaration AUTHOR'S DECLARATION FOR ELECTRONIC SUBMISSION OF A THESIS I hereby declare that I am the sole author of this thesis. This is a true copy of the thesis, including any required final revisions, as accepted by my examiners. I understand that my thesis may be made electronically available to the public. ii Abstract This dissertation is about influence which is defined as the ability to move ideas forward within, and in some cases across, organizations. More specifically it is about an extraordinary organization called the Club of Rome (COR), who became advocates of the idea of greater use of systems analysis in the development of policy. The systems approach to policy required rational, holistic and long-range thinking. It was an approach that attracted the attention of Canadian Prime Minister Pierre Trudeau. Commonality of interests and concerns united the disparate members of the COR and allowed that organization to develop an influential presence within Canada during Trudeau’s time in office from 1968 to 1984. The story of the COR in Canada is extended beyond the end of the Trudeau era to explain how the key elements that had allowed the organization and its Canadian Association (CACOR) to develop an influential presence quickly dissipated in the post- 1984 era. The key reasons for decline were time and circumstance as the COR/CACOR membership aged, contacts were lost, and there was a political paradigm shift that was antithetical to COR/CACOR ideas.

    Choice or Consensus?: The 2006 Federal Liberal and Alberta Conservative Leadership Campaigns Jared J. Wesley PhD Candidate Department of Political Science University of Calgary Paper for Presentation at: The Annual Meeting of the Canadian Political Science Association University of Saskatchewan Saskatoon, Saskatchewan May 30, 2007 Comments welcome. Please do not cite without permission. CHOICE OR CONSENSUS?: THE 2006 FEDERAL LIBERAL AND ALBERTA CONSERVATIVE LEADERSHIP CAMPAIGNS INTRODUCTION Two of Canada’s most prominent political dynasties experienced power-shifts on the same weekend in December 2006. The Liberal Party of Canada and the Progressive Conservative Party of Alberta undertook leadership campaigns, which, while different in context, process and substance, produced remarkably similar outcomes. In both instances, so-called ‘dark-horse’ candidates emerged victorious, with Stéphane Dion and Ed Stelmach defeating frontrunners like Michael Ignatieff, Bob Rae, Jim Dinning, and Ted Morton. During the campaigns and since, Dion and Stelmach have been labeled as less charismatic than either their predecessors or their opponents, and both of the new leaders have drawn skepticism for their ability to win the next general election.1 This pair of surprising results raises interesting questions about the nature of leadership selection in Canada. Considering that each race was run in an entirely different context, and under an entirely different set of rules, which common factors may have contributed to the similar outcomes? The following study offers a partial answer. In analyzing the platforms of the major contenders in each campaign, the analysis suggests that candidates’ strategies played a significant role in determining the results. Whereas leading contenders opted to pursue direct confrontation over specific policy issues, Dion and Stelmach appeared to benefit by avoiding such conflict.

That document invites comments on legislative proposals for lawful access by law enforcement agencies to communications and related information. 1.0 SUMMARY · No evidence has been offered that existing interception and search and seizure laws are inadequate for dealing with electronic communications. Nor does the Cyber- Crime Convention offer a persuasive rationale for the proposals. · Privacy is a constitutionally protected right. Privacy in electronic communications should give way to law enforcement and national security needs only where those needs clearly outweigh the privacy interest and then only to the minimal extent necessary. There is clearly a reasonable expectation of privacy in e-mail. Existing standards respecting interception of private communications should apply to e-mail interception.

Much of the Bill is similar to its predecessor – Bill C-42, Public Safety Act. To the extent that Bill C-55 has not addressed our concerns, we rely on our previous submission concerning Bill C-42 (a copy of which is attached), which we provided to the government in February 2002. This letter provides additional comments which principally address the differences between Bill C-42 and Bill C-55. Airline Passenger Information Bill C-42 permitted collection and use of airline passenger information in two contexts – transportation security (proposed section 4.82 of the Aeronautics Act, in clause 5 of Bill C-42) and immigration (proposed section 88.1 of the Immigration Act, in clause 69 of Bill C-42, which Page 2 applied to all transportation companies).
