  • Legislative Assembly Recommends the Re-Appointment of the Information and Privacy Commissioner of Nunavut
    kNK5 moZos3=x Nunavut Maligaliurvia Legislative Assembly of Nunavut Assemblée législative du Nunavut R E L E A S E Legislative Assembly Recommends the Re-appointment of the Information and Privacy Commissioner of Nunavut IQALUIT, Nunavut (November 25, 2004) - The Legislative Assembly today recommended that Ms. Elaine Keenan Bengts be re-appointed as the Information and Privacy Commissioner of Nunavut for a five-year term of office. Section 61 of Nunavut’s Access to Information and Protection of Privacy Act provides that the Commissioner of Nunavut, on the recommendation of the Legislative Assembly, shall appoint an Information and Privacy Commissioner. The position is one of a number of independent officers who report directly to the Legislative Assembly. The purposes of the Access to Information and Protection of Privacy Act are to make public bodies more accountable to the public and to protect personal privacy by giving the public a right of access to records held by public bodies; giving individuals a right of access to, and a right to request correction of, personal information about themselves held by public bodies; specifying limited exceptions to the rights of access; preventing the unauthorized collection, use or disclosure of personal information by public bodies; and providing for an independent review of decisions made under the Act. The Information and Privacy Commissioner performs a number of duties under the Act, and reports annually to the Legislative Assembly. Ms. Keenan Bengts was appointed Nunavut’s first Information and Privacy Commissioner in 1999. She is a long-term Northerner and non-resident member of the Law Society of Nunavut.

It has been accepted for inclusion in Dissertations - ALL by an authorized administrator of SURFACE. For more information, please contact [email protected]. Abstract This is a qualitative study of the 30-year land claim negotiation process (1963-1993) through which the Inuit of Nunavut transformed themselves from being a marginalized population with few recognized rights in Canada to becoming the overwhelmingly dominant voice in a territorial government, with strong rights over their own lands and waters. In this study I view this negotiation process and all of the activities that supported it as part of a larger Inuit Movement and argue that it meets the criteria for a social movement. This study bridges several social sciences disciplines, including newly emerging areas of study in social movements, conflict resolution, and Indigenous studies, and offers important lessons about the conditions for a successful mobilization for Indigenous rights in other states. In this research I examine the extent to which Inuit values and worldviews directly informed movement emergence and continuity, leadership development and, to some extent, negotiation strategies.

  • Nunavut History*
    Nunavut History* The Flag of Nunavut The blue and gold colors are symbolic of the riches of the land, sea and sky. The inuksuk is a symbol of the stone monuments that act as guides for people traveling on the land that also indicates sacred and special places. The North Star is a traditional reference for navigation and also alludes to the leadership of elders in the various communities. Image of inuksuk at Sundown MOTTO NUNAVUT SANGINIVUT means "Nunavut our strength". There was once a world before this, and in it lived people who were not of our tribe. But the pillars of the earth collapsed, and all were destroyed. And the world was emptiness. Then two men grew up from a hummock of earth. They were born and fully grown all at once. And they wished to have children. A magic song changed one of them into a woman, and they had children. These were our earliest forefathers, and from them all the lands were peopled. — Tuglik, Igloolik area, 1922 Nunavut means “our land" in the Inuit language of Inuktitut. Population (2006 census): 30,800m Total Area: 1,994,000km Date of creation of the territory: April 1, 1999 Nunavut Early History The earliest people to inhabit the region now known as Nunavut were the Tuniit (Dorset) people, believed to have crossed the Bering Strait–then a land bridge–from Russia approximately 5,000 years ago. The Tuniit were the sole occupants of the land until about 1,000 years ago, when the Thule, the ancestors of today's Inuit, began appearing in the area.

  • Decorum Within the Ontario Legislative Assembly
    Two Sword Lengths Apart: Decorum Within the Ontario Legislative Assembly By Joshua Borden Ontario Legislative Intern, 2012-2013 Ontario Legislature Internship Programme (OLIP) Room 1303, Whitney Block 99 Wellesley Street West, Queen’s Park, Toronto, Ontario M7A 1A2 Phone: 416-325-0040 [email protected] Paper delivered at the Annual Meeting of the Canadian Political Science Association 10:30 a.m., Thursday June 6, 2013, Victoria, British Columbia Discussant: David C. Docherty DRAFT: Please do not cite without author’s permission. Introduction On Wednesday, March 27, 2013, New Democratic party (NDP) Member of Provincial Parliament (MPP) Taras Natyshak rose during Question Period in the Legislative Assembly of Ontario, armed with a question for Premier Kathleen Wynne about gaming in the province. Due to the raucous heckling and interjections of other legislators, it would take multiple attempts and a full 120 seconds before MPP Natyshak was able to finish his initial question. As Craig Pearson (2013) would describe the next day in the Windsor Star, “they shouted at him. They laughed at him. They made him sit down.
