  • Brief to the Ontario Citizens' Assembly on Electoral Reform Submitted By
    Brief to the Ontario Citizens’ Assembly on Electoral Reform Submitted by Communist Party of Canada (Ontario) 290A Danforth Avenue Toronto, ON M4K 1N6 Tel: 416-469-2446 Email: [email protected] January 2007 Mr Chair, Members of the Assembly: Thank you for this opportunity to discuss proposals for meaningful electoral reform in Ontario, and proportional representation in particular. First, we would like to introduce ourselves: The CPC (Ontario) is a registered political party in Ontario. We became a registered party in 1975 after a mass province wide campaign to collect 10,000 signatures of registered voters, each of whom agreed that the CPC (Ontario) should be registered, should have the right to continue to participate in provincial elections and in the electoral life of the province. In fact, the CPC has participated in the political life of this province since its birth in Guelph, Ontario in 1921. We are one of the oldest parties in Ontario, and in Canada. Until 1972, parties were not required to register provincially or federally; they simply put forward their policies and candidates following the requirements for nomination of candidates, which at that time were a nomination deposit, nomination signatures, and a financial accounting following the campaign. When provincial legislation was passed in the early 70s requiring political parties to register in order to participate in provincial election campaigns, the requirements for registration were that the party seeking registration either had to have members already elected to the Legislature; or had to collect the signatures of at least 10,000 qualified voters who supported that party’s registration.

  • In Grateful Memory of the Men of the Parish of Rockcliffe and Cargo And
    In grateful memory of the Men of the Parish of Rockcliffe and Cargo and of this district who lost their lives in the service of their country in the Great War and in World War Two, and of their comrades who returned, having done their duty manfully. It is not the critic that counts, not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or whether the doer of deeds could have done better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena…. who strives…. who spends himself…. and who at worst, if he fails, at least he fails in daring, so that his place will never be with those timid souls who know nothing of either victory or defeat. At the going down of the sun, And in the morning We will remember them. A cross of sacrifice stands in all Commonwealth War Graves Commission cemeteries on the Western Front. The War Memorial of the Parish of Rockcliffe and Cargo. It is 2010. In far off Afghanistan young men and women of various nations are putting their lives at risk as they struggle to defeat a tenacious enemy. We receive daily reports of the violent death of some while still in their teens. Others, of whom we hear little, are horribly maimed for life. We here, in the relative safety of the countries we call The British Isles, are free to discuss from our armchair or pub stool the rights and wrongs of such a conflict. That right of free speech, whatever our opinion or conclusion, was won for us by others, others who are not unlike today’s almost daily casualties of a distant war.

Many of its founding members had belonged to groups such as the Socialist Party of Canada, One Big Union, the Socialist Labor Party, the Industrial Workers of the World, and other socialist, Marxist or Labour parties or clubs. The party was founded as the Canadian section of the Comintern, and was thus similar to Communist parties around the world. The party alternated between legality and illegality during the 1920s and 1930s. It was initially illegal, and created the Workers' Party of Canada in 1922 as its public face.

Nicholas Dixon November 2018 ii Thesis Summary The Activity and Influence of the Established Church in England, c. 1800-1837 Nicholas Andrew Dixon Pembroke College, Cambridge This thesis examines the various ways in which the Church of England engaged with English politics and society from c. 1800 to 1837. Assessments of the early nineteenth-century Church of England remain coloured by a critique originating in radical anti-clerical polemics of the period and reinforced by the writings of the Tractarians and Élie Halévy. It is often assumed that, in consequence of social and political change, the influence of a complacent and reactionary church was irreparably eroded by 1830.

  • You Know What We Stand For’: the Divisions, Personalities, and Experiments of Organized Labour in Hamilton’S Municipal Elections, 1933-1985
    ‘You Know What We Stand For’: The Divisions, Personalities, and Experiments of Organized Labour in Hamilton’s Municipal Elections, 1933-1985 Authored by Chris Erl Supervised by Don Wells M.A. Work and Society August, 2013 This edition contains minor edits noted after initial publication. Original content has not been altered. – Chris Erl, October, 2013 1 Introduction The opening lines of a chapter in Bill Freeman and Marsha Hewitt’s Their Town: The Mafia, The Media and the Party Machine captures a popular notion about municipal politics in Hamilton. Writing in 1979, the pair declared, “One of the most striking things about Hamilton political life is that it is virtually unintelligible to any but those who follow political events in detail.”1 Fred Cutler and J. Scott Matthews devised an explanation for why this might be, and more generally why municipal government presents the appearance of being more complicated than the structures of Canada’s federal and provincial governments. Cutler and Matthews assert that there is less information available during municipal elections, which means voters are less interested in gathering information needed to make a definitive decision at the ballot box, which subsequently lead to civic disengagement. The lack of information present stems from three elements that influence Canada’s municipal elections: the absence of political parties for voter mobilization and information dissemination, voter confusion concerning the responsibilities of municipal government, and the electorate’s lack of familiarity with the municipal voting system when compared with that of the two other levels of government.2 The confusion of voters regarding civic politics, resulting in low voter turn-out, disengagement and the near-cliché return of incumbent representatives, did not dissuade Hamilton’s labour movement from becoming involved in civic government.
