RECOMMENDATION / ACTION: [All Directors – Corporate Weighted] That the Regional District purchase an annual subscription (10 issues) of the Composite Public Affairs newsletter for an amount of $87 including GST.

January 4, 2019 Karen Goodings Peace River Regional District Box 810 Dawson Creek, BC V1G 4H8 Dear Karen, It is my pleasure to provide you with a complimentary issue of our new political newsletter, The Composite Advisor. British Columbia today is in the midst of an exciting political drama — one that may last for the next many months, or (as I believe) the next several years. At present, a New Democratic Party government led by Premier John Horgan and supported by Andrew Weaver's Green Party, holds a narrow advantage in the Legislative Assembly. And after 16 years in power, the long-governing BC Liberals now sit on the opposition benches with a relatively-new leader in Andrew Wilkinson. B.C.'s next general-election is scheduled for October 2021, almost three years from now, but as the old saying goes: 'The only thing certain, is uncertainty." (The best political quote in this regard may have been by British Prime Minister Harold MacMillan who, asked by a reporter what might transpire to change his government's course of action, replied: "Events, dear boy, events." New research suggests that MacMillan never said it — but it's still a great quote!) Composite Public Affairs Inc.

  • Assembly of First Nations Federal Election Campaign 2006 ANALYSIS As the Election Campaign Heads Into the Final Days, the Platfo
    Assembly of First Nations Federal Election Campaign 2006 ANALYSIS Liberal Conservative New Bloc Green First Peoples Democratic Québécois Party As the election campaign heads into the final days, the platforms of the parties are being revealed. In addition, all parties have now responded to the specific questions posed by the Assembly of First Nations (AFN). By looking both at the responses provided along with the platform information made available by the various parties, we can assess their positions as they relate to First Nation issues. Overview At this point in the campaign, the Conservative Party appears to be gaining momentum. Typically, previously undecided voters begin to firm up their position about ten days before an election. In other words, the polls that emerge in the coming days will likely predict the election outcome. As such, this analysis will pay particular attention to the platform and responses of the Conservative Party. It should also be noted that while the presence of the Bloc Quebecois makes attaining a majority government difficult, we should be prepared for both a majority or minority government situation. As a result, it will be important to appreciate the platforms of all parties as opposition parties may well continue to play a critical role in Parliament after the election. Campaign Summary The election campaign has provided very limited attention to First Nation issues. At the Special Chiefs Assembly of the AFN in December 2005, critics of the various parties were invited to address the Chiefs and entertained questions. In addition, while the AFN attempted to have specific questions raised during the televised leadership debates, these efforts did not succeed as other issues relating to ethics, health care, crime and tax cuts have shaped the campaign discourse.

  • Political Donations Networks in Canada: a Structural and Evolutionary Analysis from a Complex Network Perspective
    HEC MONTRÉAL Political Donations Networks in Canada: A Structural and Evolutionary Analysis from a Complex Network Perspective By Abdoulaye Diop [email protected] Thesis Supervisor Gilles Caporossi [email protected] A Thesis Presented to the Faculty of the Graduate School of HEC Montreal In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Master of Science (Ms.c) Department of Data Science and Business Analytics June 2020 © Abdoulaye Diop, 2018 This thesis is submitted as part of my Msc program requirement at HEC Montreal. This page is purposely left blank ii Abstract This paper introduces a network-based approach to study the impact of Canada's 2006 campaign financing reforms banning corporate donations on political donations networks in Canada. The goal of the 2006 reform has been to root out the influence of money in politics and make the donation landscape a much fairer environment. The paper investigates the structure and evolution of donations networks of all 13 provinces and territories and the power dynamics among political parties using complex network methodologies. Each region's donation networks were constructed from corporate and individual donations public data provided by Elections Canada. The results show that the 2006 reforms did have some impact on the structure of donations networks and the power dynamics among political parties in Canada. Keywords: Complex Networks; Political Networks; Donations Networks; Campaign Finance Networks, Contributions Networks, Power and Influence, Canada Politics. iii Acknowledgements I would like to first and foremost thank my thesis supervisor and academic advisor Dr. Gilles Caporossi for all his support, guidance, and direction throughout this thesis program.

I identify three types of dynamics of party systems: different patterns of coalition and opposition, different patterns of expression of social cleavages through parties, and redefinitions of the meaning attached to the main axis of competition. These dynamics provide partisan actors with the ideational resources to make sense of changes in the international system, contribute to the creation of new (domestic and foreign) policy preferences and bring about political incentives for the promotion of new foreign policies.
