  • Private Health Facilities in Saskatchewan: Marginalization Through Legalizationi
    Canadian Political Science Review 3(4) December 2009 Private Health Facilities in Saskatchewan: Marginalization through Legalizationi Tom McIntosh and Michael Ducie (University oF ReGina)* Abstract This paper explores how the passage of Saskatchewan’s Health Facilities Licensing Act in 1996 created both a legal Framework For private health Facilities in the province as well as erectinG significant barriers to virtually insure that no such Facilities could eFFectively operate. This is done within the context oF discovering how placing barriers to privatization has contributed to reForm of the health care system and the conditions in which reForm will be permitted. Data for the study were collected from a series of eleven key informant interviews includinG elected oFFicials, civil servants, health care proFessionals, academics, members oF key stakeholder orGanizations which both supported and opposed the leGislation. Introduction One would be hard pressed to find a single issue that is more divisive within the health care debate than that of the role of private financing and private delivery of health services. But despite a number of wide-ranging provincial studies (see, for example: Quebec, 2000; Saskatchewan, 2001; Alberta, 2002), a Royal Commission (Canada, 2002a) and a Senate committee report (Canada, 2002b) in the past decade, there is also probably no single issue that is still so poorly understood by the public, stakeholders and governments. The recent Supreme Court decision that found Quebec’s ban on the purchase of private insurance for services already insured under provincial insurance to be a violation of the Quebec Charter of Rights has reignited the debate in important ways while also doing little to clarify some of the key issues that are stake (Marchildon, 2005; Flood et al., 2005; McIntosh, 2006; Premont, 2007).

  • Montgomery Place Memorial Cairn Summary
    MONTGOMERY PLACE MEMORIAL CAIRN 1987 - In 1987 two veterans raised the idea of building a memorial cairn in Montgomery Park to recognize our unique community and to honour the contributions of Montgomery Place residents to the Second World War and the Korean War. The idea was presented by Bernard Newman of 3303 Caen Street (built in 1956) and Lewis Winger of 3437 Normandy Street (built in 1960). At a Montgomery Place Community Association meeting, a small group of residents and friends agreed to form the Cairn Committee. The President of the Community Association, Jim Earle, recruited Glen MacDonald of Ortona Street to chair the Cairn Committee. Michael Molaro of 11th Street West volunteered to join the Committee to add his architectural drafting skills. Other Committee members included : Gordon Dewar, Ruth Murray, Wendel Dent, Fred Hodgkinson, Ivan Bowman, Harold Olson, George Thompson and Ed Price. Dave Scott acted as City of Saskatoon liaison. 1988 - On May 9, 1988 Saskatoon City Council passed a motion " …that permission be granted to place a cairn commemorating the founding of Montgomery Place in the north-west corner of Montgomery Park. " In the following year the City approved the construction details and exact location of the cairn. The final plans were drawn by Michael Molaro in July 1988. Many of the construction details were worked out between Bernie Newman, Lew Winger and Jim Sabino, the stonemason who had been chosen to build the cairn. 1989 - A community meeting was held on January 26, 1989 when the cairn proposal was endorsed by the Montgomery Place residents who attended.

  • Natural Resources and Government Revenue
    Natural Resources and Government Revenue: Recent Trends in Saskatchewan John W. Warnock ISBN - 0-88627-440-0 1 Natural Resources and Government Revenues: Recent Trends in Saskatchewan by John W. Warnock Introduction For most of its history, Saskatchewan has been a “Have Natural Resources are a not” province with per capita income and gross domestic product free gift from nature. In below the Canadian average. This has commonly been attributed Canada, they are the to the fact that Saskatchewan does not have a major property of the people as manufacturing sector, is less urban than other provinces, and has a whole, under provincial an economy which is heavily dependent on agriculture and jurisdiction, and resource extraction. Until the province began to develop the managed by their elected resource sector, there were limited government revenues governments. available for expanding social programs. Natural resources are a free gift from nature. In Canada, they are the property of the people as a whole, under provincial jurisdiction, and managed by their elected governments. Since the expansion of democracy, and the election of the CCF Government in 1944, the people of Saskatchewan have consistently felt that natural resources should be developed for the benefit of all. This means that the economic surplus, or economic rent created by the extraction of non- renewable resources, should primarily benefit the general public. Beginning with the election of the NDP Government of Allan Blakeney in 1971, there was a concerted effort to expand the share of resource rents going to the government. This additional revenue helped finance economic development and enabled a significant expansion of social programs.
