Radical social movements and countercultures challenged the conservatism of the preceding decade, rejected traditional forms of politics, and demanded an alternative based on the principles of social justice, individual freedom and an end to oppression on all fronts. Yet in Canada a unique political movement emerged which embraced these principles but proposed that New Left social movements – the student and anti-war movements, the women’s liberation movement and Canadian nationalists – could bring about radical political change not only through street protests and sit-ins, but also through participation in electoral politics.

  • Fonds Alan Pope (AP)
    CENTRE D’ARCHIVES DE LA GRANDE ZONE ARGILEUSE Archival Description Title: Fonds Alan Pope (AP) Dates: 1973-2006. Extent of descriptive unit: 6.35 m of photographic, textual and other documents. Administrative history or biography: Alan William Pope was the Cochrane South representative (Timmins-James Bay), at the Legislative Assembly of Ontario from 1977 to 1990. Born in Ayr, Scotland on August 2nd 1945, Alan Pope was raised in Timmins, Ontario. He is married to Linda Fillion from Mattice, Ontario and the couple has one son, David. In 1967, he completed a Bachelor of Arts, with a double major in History and in English at Waterloo Lutheran University, now Wilfrid Laurier University. He pursued law studies at the Osgoode Hall Law School at York University and was called to the bar in 1972. His interest in politics dates back to his undergraduate years at Wilfrid Laurier, where Brian Near, then president of the Progressive Conservative club, recruited him. Alan Pope was very active within the Ontario Progressive Conservative Youth Association and was the national president of the Progressive Conservative Student Federation in 1969-1970. In 1972, he was elected to the Timmins City Council. During the provincial elections of 1975, he ran as the progressive conservative candidate for Cochrane South, but was defeated by NDP candidate, Bill Ferrier. He ran again two years later and was elected as a member for Cochrane South, a seat he held until he retired from politics in 1990. During his time in politics, Alan Pope was Minister without portfolio (1979-1981), Minister of Natural Resources (1981-1985) as well as Minister of Health and Attorney General of Ontario (1985).

  • Keeping Independent Officers of Legislatures Independent: The
    Keeping Independent Officers of Legislatures Independent: The Institutional Design of the Appointment Process under the Condition of Majority Government Michael Smith M.A., University of Victoria, 2010 Independent legislative officers are supposed to provide the entire legislature with non- partisan, evidence-based assessments of government activities and their impact on the public. To get quality independent legislative officers, a well-designed appointment process is critical, as they are legislative, not governmental appointments. However, when there is majority government in a Westminster parliamentary system, how can the appointment process ensure that the will of the entire legislature is separated from the will of the government? We can easily understand how a government would be concerned with a zealous investigator with a flair for vigorous public communication. For that reason consensus on the appointment from all recognized political parties is preferred. Over the last 10-20 years, the Legislative Assembly of Ontario has changed the appointment process for independent officers. This change was from a formal, structured appointment through a Standing Committee of the Legislature, to an informal, ad-hoc committee with all-party representation. The proposed research question therefore is: which process is better equipped to prevent the governing party from making the appointment decision without the consent of the opposition parties? The paper will approach the issue by comparing two cases from Ontario‘s recent history: the 1999 appointment of Gord Miller as Environmental Commissioner, and the 2010 reappointment of André Marin as Ombudsman. Using interviews from those involved, this paper will argue that the informal process offers the opposition parties more avenues to obstruct the will of the government and force compromise.
