Introduction 4 Past Experience 4 Changes in Procedure and Practice 10 Prospects 16 November 2000 Vol. 1, no. 6 Policy Matters 3 Peter Dobell Introduction In the last 26 years Canada has had six majority parliaments at the federal level while experiencing only one eight-month period of minority government. By contrast, during the previous 17 years — from June 1957 to July 1974 — there were five minority parliaments, interspersed by just two majority governments. Indeed between 1962 and 1968, there was a string of three successive minority governments. Even though five political parties have contested the two federal elections since 1993, a situation which makes the achievement of a majority a challenge, the Liberal party has twice during this period succeeded in winning majorities, assisted on the political right by vote splitting between the Pro g re s s i v e Conservatives and the Reform party, and on the left by the decline in support for the NDP. In 1997, however, the margin of victory for the Liberal government was slight.

  • Origin of a Folded Repeat Protein from an Intrinsically Disordered Ancestor
    RESEARCH ARTICLE Origin of a folded repeat protein from an intrinsically disordered ancestor Hongbo Zhu, Edgardo Sepulveda, Marcus D Hartmann, Manjunatha Kogenaru†, Astrid Ursinus, Eva Sulz, Reinhard Albrecht, Murray Coles, Jo¨ rg Martin, Andrei N Lupas* Department of Protein Evolution, Max Planck Institute for Developmental Biology, Tu¨ bingen, Germany Abstract Repetitive proteins are thought to have arisen through the amplification of subdomain- sized peptides. Many of these originated in a non-repetitive context as cofactors of RNA-based replication and catalysis, and required the RNA to assume their active conformation. In search of the origins of one of the most widespread repeat protein families, the tetratricopeptide repeat (TPR), we identified several potential homologs of its repeated helical hairpin in non-repetitive proteins, including the putatively ancient ribosomal protein S20 (RPS20), which only becomes structured in the context of the ribosome. We evaluated the ability of the RPS20 hairpin to form a TPR fold by amplification and obtained structures identical to natural TPRs for variants with 2–5 point mutations per repeat. The mutations were neutral in the parent organism, suggesting that they could have been sampled in the course of evolution. TPRs could thus have plausibly arisen by amplification from an ancestral helical hairpin. DOI: 10.7554/eLife.16761.001 *For correspondence: andrei.

    PARLIAMENT OF CANADA / PARLEMENT DU CANADA The Dominion of Canada was created under the provisions of an Act of the Imperial Parliament (30 Victoria, Chapter III) passed in 1867, and formally cited as The British North America Act, 1867. This Act received Royal Assent, March 29th, 1867, and came into effect by virtue of Royal Proclamation, July 1st, 1867. The Constitution Act, 1867, provides: “There shall be one Parliament for Canada, consisting of the Queen, an Upper House styled the Senate, and the House of Commons.” (Clause 17) “There shall be a Session of the Parliament of Canada once at least in every year, so that twelve months shall not intervene between the last Sitting of the Parliament in one Session and its first Sitting in the next Session.” (Section 20) “Every House of Commons shall continue for five years from the Day of the Return of the Writs for choosing the House (subject to be sooner dissolved by the Governor General), and no longer.” (Section 50) “The Governor-General shall, from time to time, in the Queen's name, by instrument under the Great Seal of Canada, summon and call together the House of Commons.” (Section 38) “Either the English or the French language may be used by any person in the Debates of the House of the Parliament of Canada and of the House of the Legislation of Quebec, and both these languages are used in the respective records and Journals of those Houses; and either of those languages may be used by any person or in any Pleading or Process or in issuing from any Court of Canada established under the Constitution Act and in or from all or any of the Courts of Quebec.” (Section 133) “91.

Department of Political Science The University of British Columbia 2075 Wesbrook Place Vancouver, Canada V6T 1W5 Date September 5» 1978 i i ABSTRACT The .study, focuses on shadow cabinet organization, the practice; of appointing members to shadow the activities of cabinet ministers by Opposition parties. This practice is analyzed in Canada between 1963 and 1978, a period of continual Progressive Conservative Opposition. The under• lying question is whether shadow cabinet organization has become more or less institutionalized during the period. In the introduction Samuel Huntington's four tests of institutionalization are outlined. They were used in assessing Canadian shadow cabinet institutionalization. To operationalize the tests for this study it proved use• ful to analyze the institution of the Canadian cabinet system along these dimensions.

His dedication and spirit of service will be missed by all in ANFREL. He has always encouraged ANFREL Secretariat staff and its members, collectively and individually to contribute their best to promoting the democratic principles of governance and to uphold the rights of the minorities and the vulnerable groups who need to be mainstreamed into the nation‐building process and recognised as equals. Kingsley strongly supported the idea of public awareness about the electoral processes and transparency whenever the elections were held as the country’s commitment to free and fair elections. ANFREL will continue to uphold the values he cherished and supported till his last. Even though Kingsley is not present among us, we will not forget his footsteps.
