QCOPYRIGHT 1976 CANADIAN PLAINS RESEARCH CENTER EDITORIAL PAGE This second issue of PRAIRlE FORUM appears at a time when the whole subject of regionalism in Canada is in the public eye due to the recent election of a Parti Quebecois government in the province of Quebec. As the journal of the Canadian Plains Research Center, PRAIRIE FORUM aims to promote investigation of the various dimensions of the prairie region. This aim appears particularly topical at the present time, as Canada grapples once again with the problem of balancing regional aspirations and the national interest. We are very pleased to hear of the establishment of a Center for Great Plains Studies at the University of Nebraska-Lincoln. Professor Brian Blouet (Department of Geography, 309 Avery Hall, UNL, Lincoln, NE 68588) informs us that "the center will promote research, teaching, and service activities designed to explore the physical and biological environ- ment of the Great Plains and its interaction with the people and their institutions, economy and culture." We wish the new center well and look forward to a valuable interaction with it. If it is true that Winnipeg very much dominated the process of agricul- tural occupation of the prairies, then that domination seems to be reflected in the composition of this issue! We have two articles on Winnipeg, and three others that pay particular attention to southern Manitoba. This geographical concentration is offset by the variety of disciplines rep- resented, and we are of course hearing from researchers in all parts of the region, our first issue having been fairly "balanced" geographically. But let's hear more from those working on Alberta and Saskatchewan, and especially those concerned with prairie-wide themes! Since the first issue of PRAIRIE FORUM, we have been expanding the Editorial Board in an effort to achieve a broad representation, an objective which has now largely been achieved. The expertise and en- thusiasm added to the Board will be a great asset. Although the new Board is listed on the inside of the front cover, the preparation of this issue took place during the transition period, and therefore with only partial involve- ment of the new Board. Among the additions, particular mention must be made of Elizabeth Hilts, who has taken on the role of Book Review Editor. On behalf of the Editorial Board, I should like to conclude by respond- ing to all the messages of goodwill and encouragement to PRAIRIE FORUM that we have received. Many thanks. ALEC H.

Federal railways policies were particularly vexatious. Designed to bind Confederation together, they did not provide adequate assistance for the construction of branch lines to transport crops to market. Provincial attempts to charter railways to build branch lines failed, either because the companies could not secure sufficient financial backing or because Ottawa disallowed their charters since they violated the monopoly clause in the Canadian Pacific Railway contract. Farmers blamed the Canadian Pacific for the high freight rates imposed in the few areas of the province lucky enough to enjoy rail communication. Given Ottawa's refusal to counte- nance American railway penetration of the Prairies, the only alternative for the farmers who desired railway competition was a Hudson's Bay Rail- way. Unfortunately, the brief shipping season of the northern ports, and the technical difficulties in building a railway across permafrost discour- aged investors from risking their

The difference of a single word – welfare versus work – led through selected events in the history of social work where similar differences led to disputes about important matters. The themes of the dispute are embedded in the Western Tradition with the emergence of social work and its development at the focal point for addressing the consequences described as a ‘painful disorientation generated at the intersections where cultural values clash.’ In early 1966, the University of Calgary was selected as the site for Alberta’s graduate level social work program following a grant and volunteers from the Calgary Junior League.

  • The 2006 Federal Liberal and Alberta Conservative Leadership Campaigns
    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.

My mother was the one who raised me, because my father was a very sick man, and died of heart trouble when I was 13 or so. My mother always said it was with him selling newspapers when he was a kid, getting wet and contracting rheumatic fever. He died when I was about 13, so mother looked after us - for a long time before that. She was really the mainstay of the family.

It is prompted by the question of why, during a brief period of six months, Manitoba voters retracted their support from the anti-Remedial and anti-coercionist Liberals in the Provincial election of January 1896 to elect the pro-Remedial and coercionist federal Conservatives in the federal election of 1896.
