  • MARCEL CADIEUX, the DEPARTMENT of EXTERNAL AFFAIRS, and CANADIAN INTERNATIONAL RELATIONS: 1941-1970
    MARCEL CADIEUX, the DEPARTMENT of EXTERNAL AFFAIRS, and CANADIAN INTERNATIONAL RELATIONS: 1941-1970 by Brendan Kelly A thesis submitted in conformity with the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Department of History University of Toronto © Copyright by Brendan Kelly 2016 ii Marcel Cadieux, the Department of External Affairs, and Canadian International Relations: 1941-1970 Brendan Kelly Doctor of Philosophy Department of History University of Toronto 2016 Abstract Between 1941 and 1970, Marcel Cadieux (1915-1981) was one of the most important diplomats to serve in the Canadian Department of External Affairs (DEA). A lawyer by trade and Montreal working class by background, Cadieux held most of the important jobs in the department, from personnel officer to legal adviser to under-secretary. Influential as Cadieux’s career was in these years, it has never received a comprehensive treatment, despite the fact that his two most important predecessors as under-secretary, O.D. Skelton and Norman Robertson, have both been the subject of full-length studies. This omission is all the more glaring since an appraisal of Cadieux’s career from 1941 to 1970 sheds new light on the Canadian diplomatic profession, on the DEA, and on some of the defining issues in post-war Canadian international relations, particularly the Canada-Quebec-France triangle of the 1960s. A staunch federalist, Cadieux believed that French Canadians could and should find a place in Ottawa and in the wider world beyond Quebec. This thesis examines Cadieux’s career and argues that it was defined by three key themes: his anti-communism, his French-Canadian nationalism, and his belief in his work as both a diplomat and a civil servant.

  • Early Developments in the Canadian Polling Industry Christopher Adams
    Polling Before Gallup: Early Developments in the Canadian Polling Industry Christopher Adams, St. Paul’s College, University of Manitoba1 May 22, 2017 Abstract This conference paper provides an overview of early developments relating to the polling industry in Canada prior to the arrival of the American pollster George Gallup’s “Gallup Poll” which first began appearing in Canadian newspapers in 1941. In particular, the paper provides: 1) an overview of the early use in Canada of survey research techniques, 2) how government agencies and academics were involved in collecting and processing quantitative data and relating to Canadian attitudes and behaviours, and, 3) how the private sector, including advertising agencies and market research firms, were developing ways to conduct public opinion research relating to consumers and media, including newspapers and radio. Together these activities provided a foundation for what would become a fully developed polling industry in Canada. Introduction There is a mistaken notion among those who write about early developments in the Canadian polling industry that it began as an American import in the early 1940s when George Gallup and Saul Rae established the Canadian Institute of Public Opinion (CIPO). In his journalistic account of the industry’s history in Canada, Clair Hoy asserted it was after Gallup’s entry on the national scene that Canadian “polling had suddenly advanced from the days of straw polls.”2 While this may have been partly true about media stories based on surveys on public issues,3 it is certainly not true that survey research and the use of other forms of quantitative analysis had not been used prior to this time to assess Canadian attitudes and behaviours.

  • Two Solitudes: Quebecers' Attitudes Regarding Canadian Security And
    Two Solitudes: Quebecers’ Attitudes Regarding Canadian Security and Defence Policy By Jean-Sébastien Rioux, Ph.D. Canada Research Chair in International Security Fellow of the Canadian Defence & Foreign Affairs Institute Department of Political Science Laval University Québec (PQ) G1K 7P4 February 23rd, 2005 Prepared for the Canadian Defence & Foreign Affairs Institute’s “Research Paper Series” ©2005 CDFAI and Jean-Sébastien Rioux Jean-Sébastien Rioux’s study on Québec Francophone views on Canadian foreign and defence policy is the first of a series of new research publications that will be published every quarter by the Canadian Defence & Foreign Affairs Institute (CDFAI). CDFAI is a Calgary-based “think tank” dedicated to encouraging academic research into issues of Canadian foreign and defence policy. CDFAI’s intent is to circulate that research as widely as possible to policy-makers, community leaders, business leaders, academics, journalists and other Canadians with an interest in Canadian international and military affairs. CDFAI is a federally approved charitable organization that sponsors a variety of projects and programs dedicated to this end. The full range of CDFAI activities can be reviewed on the CDFAI website www.cdfai.org. This paper provides much food for thought and suggests additional areas of research into the little explored subject of how much of an impact Canada’s ethnic, demographic, and regional composition has on the making of Canadian foreign and defence policy. Rioux quite naturally focuses on the prime dichotomy of Canadian life. That dichotomy is based on the founding of Canada on two linguistic groups – English and French-speaking Canadians – and consists of the efforts of those two groups to live together in one nation.

  • Elizabeth P. Maccallum, the Canadian Department of External Affairs, and the Palestine Mandate to 1947 By
    The Outsider: Elizabeth P. MacCallum, the Canadian Department of External Affairs, and the Palestine Mandate to 1947 by Richard Newport A thesis submitted to the Faculty of Graduate and Postdoctoral Affairs in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in History Carleton University Ottawa, Canada © 2014 Richard Newport i Abstract Elizabeth Pauline MacCallum was Canada’s leading expert on the Middle East in the first part of the twentieth century. From 1925 to 1935, as a research analyst and author for the Foreign Policy Association (FPA), she gained international recognition for her scholarship on the problems and challenges confronting the Middle East and the British Mandate in Palestine, the central ground of dispute between the Arab and Jewish peoples. MacCallum joined Canada’s Department of External Affairs (DEA) in 1942, not as a regional specialist, but as a wartime clerk. Where there had been previously no clear official thinking regarding the Middle East, MacCallum, using a combination of expertise and persistence, slowly gained recognition among her peers for her understanding of the region. The purpose of this thesis is to examine MacCallum’s ideas about the Middle East by investigating the foundation, development, and substance of her ideas about the region. The thesis also identifies the role that she played in the Department of External Affairs and interrogates the manner in which she applied her ideas as a member of the DEA. In particular, this study assesses her part in the making of Canada’s first policy towards the Middle East, which came together in 1947.

  • Appendices Appendix A: Types of Democracies
    APPENDICES APPENDIX A: TYPES OF DEMOCRaCIES Advocacy Democracy Robert Dahl (1970: 149) once suggested that every elected official should have a citizens’ advisory council, members of which would be chosen by lot. A similar proposal for citizens’ advisory commissions has been spelled out in more detail (Dalton, Bürklin, Drummond 2001, Dalton, Scarrow, Cain 2003: 10–11) in order to forge advocacy democracy, which would broaden what now exists at the local level when citizens are notified of hearings regarding housing developments in their neighborhoods and then attend to give their views before planning commissions. Anticipatory Democracy As coined by Alvin Toffler inFuture Shock (1970), the idea is for policy-making based on credible predictions that are accepted by the public (cf. Bezold 1978). The public should accept expert forecasts while voting, but there is no procedural innovation involved beyond having more public education and more public input. Cellular Democracy Neighborhood councils were set up in American cit- ies during the 1970s so that small communities in big cities could deter- mine policies for each part of town. With that concept in mind, the idea arose to divide a country into districts of about 500 persons, and then ten to twenty districts would form a level 2 council and so forth up to the state level (Foldvary 2002). Such a scheme was favored by Thomas Jefferson, who proposed having small wards as the ideal democratic unit (cf. Young 1996). Some proponents believe that cellular democracy could be the foundation for global democracy. © The Author(s) 2019 317 M.

  • CENTRE for CONTEMPORARY INTERNATIONAL HISTORY Welcome Letter from the Centre for Contemporary International History
    1 CENTRE FOR CONTEMPORARY INTERNATIONAL HISTORY Welcome Letter from the Centre for Contemporary International History Dear Friends, Welcome to The Pearson Government: 50 Years On, hosted by the Centre for Contemporary International History (CCIH) at Trinity College and the Munk School of Global Affairs, in the University of Toronto. CCIH was founded just over a year ago, with the aim of promoting the study of international relations history since roughly the end of the Second World War. Our conference today will explore the legacy of the Pearson government, a half-century after its inauguration. The government that Lester Pearson formed fifty years ago this month was one of the most memorable in Canadian history. Some of the specific programs and institutions introduced by the Pearson government, such as Medicare and the Canada Pension Plan (CPP), largely define the Canada we know today. At the same time, many of the issues that dominated the politics of that period, including the future of the welfare state and Canada’s role in the world, are still very much alive and relevant. We are glad that you are joining us today, along with the scholars, diplomats, policymakers and political figures we have brought together to exchange perspectives on the Pearson era. We wish you a stimulating and enjoyable conference. Best, John English Director, CCIH Jack Cunningham Program Coordinator, CCIH The Hon. Bill Graham Chancellor of Trinity College 1 CENTRE FOR CONTEMPORARY INTERNATIONAL HISTORY Conference Schedule / April 9, 2013 9:00 - 9:30 REGISTRATION
