  • The NDP's Approach to Constitutional Issues Has Not Been Electorally
    Constitutional Confusion on the Left: The NDP’s Position in Canada’s Constitutional Debates Murray Cooke [email protected] First Draft: Please do not cite without permission. Comments welcome. Paper prepared for the Annual Meetings of the Canadian Political Science Association, June 2004, Winnipeg The federal New Democratic Party experienced a dramatic electoral decline in the 1990s from which it has not yet recovered. Along with difficulties managing provincial economies, the NDP was wounded by Canada’s constitutional debates. The NDP has historically struggled to present a distinctive social democratic approach to Canada’s constitution. Like its forerunner, the Co-operative Commonwealth Federation (CCF), the NDP has supported a liberal, (English-Canadian) nation-building approach that fits comfortably within the mainstream of Canadian political thought. At the same time, the party has prioritized economic and social polices rather than seriously addressing issues such as the deepening of democracy or the recognition of national or regional identities. Travelling without a roadmap, the constitutional debates of the 80s and 90s proved to be a veritable minefield for the NDP. Through three rounds of mega- constitutional debate (1980-82, 1987-1990, 1991-1992), the federal party leadership supported the constitutional priorities of the federal government of the day, only to be torn by disagreements from within. This paper will argue that the NDP’s division, lack of direction and confusion over constitution issues can be traced back to longstanding weaknesses in the party’s social democratic theory and strategy. First of all, the CCF- NDP embraced rather than challenged the parameters and institutions of liberal democracy.

  • The New Democratic Parly and Labor Political Action in Canada
    ^ •%0k--~* ^'i'^©fc: s $> LABOR RESEARCH REVIEW #22 The New Democratic Parly and Labor Political Action in Canada • Elaine Bernard Political humorist Barry Crimmins recently remarked that the Perot phenomenon in the last Presidential election showed the depressing state of U.S. politics. "Who would have thought/' shrugged Crimmins, "that the development of a third party would reduce political choice?" Many U.S. union progressives have envied their Canadian counterparts' success in building an enduring labor-based political party—the New Democratic Party (NDP). They look to Canada and the NDP as proof that labor and democratic socialist ideas can win a wide hearing and acceptance in North America. As U.S. activists learn about Canada's more progressive labor laws, the national system of universal publicly funded single-payer health care coverage, and the more generous and extensive entitlement programs, they naturally look to labor's political power and the role of the labor-supported New Democratic Party in winning many of these reforms and promoting progressive social change in Canada. Yet most activists in the U.S. know little about the 33-year history of the NDP, the struggles that took place within the Canadian labor movement over the party's creation, and the continuing evolution of • Elaine Bernard is the Executive Director of the Harvard Trade Union Program.

  • Selecting Selinger: the 2009 Leadership Race and the Future of NDP Conventions in Manitoba∗
    Selecting Selinger: The 2009 Leadership Race and the Future of NDP Conventions in Manitoba∗ Jared J. Wesley, University of Manitoba [email protected] Paper for Presentation at The Annual Meeting of the Canadian Political Science Association Concordia University, Montreal June 2010 Abstract In a delegated convention held in October, 2009, the Manitoba New Democratic Party (NDP) selected former Finance Minister Greg Selinger to replace Canada's longest-serving and most popular premier, Gary Doer. Official appeals filed by the victor’s chief rival, Steve Ashton, and persistent criticism of the process in the media raised significant concerns over the method by which the new premier was selected. These complaints proved a fleeting fixation of the media, and have not harmed the NDP’s popularity or affected the smooth transition of the premiership from Doer to Selinger. Yet, questions persist as to whether the 2009 leadership race marked the last delegated convention in the history of the Manitoba New Democratic Party. This paper examines the 2009 leadership race in the context of contests past, analyzing the list of criticisms directed at the process. Grounding its findings in the comments of delegates to the 2009 Convention, it concludes with a series of probable choices for the party, as it begins the process of considering reforms to its leadership selection process. Leading contenders for adoption include a pure one-member, one-vote system and a modified version similar to that of the federal NDP. ∗ Funding for the 2009 Manitoba NDP Convention Study was provided by the Faculty of Arts, Duff Roblin Professorship, and Department of Political Studies at the University of Manitoba, and the Canada Research Chair in Indigenous Politics and Governance.

    The Making of a Labour Activist: James W. Orr, Saint John, New Brunswick, 1936-2009 by Ryan Stairs Bachelor of Arts, University of New Brunswick, 2011 A Thesis Submitted in Partial Fulfilment of the Requirements for the Degree of Master of Arts in the Graduate Academic Unit of History Supervisor: David Frank, PhD, Department of History (Supervisor) Examining Board: Gregory S. Kealey, PhD, Department of History W. Thom Workman, PhD, Department of Political Science David Charters, PhD, Department of History This thesis is accepted by the Dean of Graduate Studies THE UNIVERSITY OF NEW BRUNSWICK July, 2014 © Ryan Stairs, 2014 ii Abstract James W. Orr (1936-2009) was one of a number of rank-and-file labour militants in the city of Saint John, New Brunswick who bore witness to, and had some hand in, a number of upheavals in the local labour movement. Growing up in a working-class neighborhood in west Saint John, he came of age at the time of the momentous Canadian Seamen’s Union strike of 1949, which had a permanent impact on his outlook. Leaving school at sixteen to work for the Canadian Pacific Railway, he then joined the navy before going on to become a lifelong union man on the docks. As a member of Local 1764, International Longshoremen’s Association, he helped lead the 1974 strike against the Maritime Employers’ Association. He was one of the organizers of the 1976 Saint John General Strike on 14 October against the federal government’s wage controls. Orr was also a key organizer of the 1979 NO CANDU campaign that closed the port in support of civil rights for workers in Argentina.

No. 1725 I 2002 Judicial Centre: Saskatoon IN THE COURT OF QUEEN'S BENCH FOR SASKATCHEWAN JUDICIAL CENTRE OF SASKATOON BETWEEN: MAURICE VELLACOTT, Plaintiff -and- SASKATOON STARPHOENIX GROUP INC., DARREN BERNHARDT and JAMES PARKER, Defendants Counsel: Daniel N. Tangjerd for the plaintiff Sean M. Sinclair for the defendants JUDGMENT DANYLIUKJ. August 31,2012 Introduction [1] The cut-and-thrust of politics can be a tough, even vicious, business. Not for the faint of heart, modem politics often means a participant's actions are examined - 2 - under a very public microscope, the lenses of which are frequently controlled by the media. While the media has obligations to act responsibly, there is no corresponding legal duty to soothe bruised feelings. [2] The plaintiff seeks damages based on his allegation that the defendants defamed him in two newspaper articles published in the Saskatoon Star-Phoenix newspaper on March 4 and 5, 2002. The defendants state the words complained of were not defamatory and, even if they were, that they have defences to the claim. [3] To better organize this judgment, I have divided it into the following sections: Para~raphs Facts 4-45 Issues 46 Analysis 47- 115 1. Are the words complained of defamatory? 47-73 2. Does the defence of responsible journalism avail the defendants? 74-83 3. Does the defence of qualified privilege avail the defendants? 84-94 4. Does the defence of fair comment avail the defendants? 95- 112 5. Does the defence of consent avail the defendants? 113 6.
