    Bill 33 –The Municipal Modernization Act (Municipal Amalgamations) JESSICA DAVENPORT & G E R R I T THEULE I. INTRODUCTION anitoba’s 197 municipalities were the subject of contention and legislative focus during the Second Session of the M Fortieth Legislature. The New Democratic Party (NDP) government introduced Bill 33-The Municipal Modernization Act (Municipal Amalgamations)1 which began the restructuring of small municipalities. The objective behind Bill 33 was to modernize governance through amalgamations of municipalities with populations below 1,000. The Municipal Modernization Act altered the existing process for amalgamations contained within The Municipal Act2 by requiring all affected municipalities to present amalgamation plans and by-passing the usual investigative and reporting stages. The Bill encountered significant opposition in both the Legislative Assembly and the public discourse. Notably, few voices opposed municipal restructuring. Rather, the criticism was levelled at the lack of consultative processes in the time leading up to the introduction of the Bill and in the implementation of the amalgamations. Neither the B.A. (Hons), J.D. (2015). The authors would like to thank Dr. Bryan Schwartz and the anonymous reviewers for their helpful comments on this work. J.D.

  • The Numbered Treaties and the Liberal Order Framework
    Western University Scholarship@Western Aboriginal Policy Research Consortium International (APRCi) 2010 The umbN ered Treaties and the Liberal Order Framework Jean L. Manore Follow this and additional works at: https://ir.lib.uwo.ca/aprci Part of the Social Policy Commons Citation of this paper: Manore, Jean L., "The umbeN red Treaties and the Liberal Order Framework" (2010). Aboriginal Policy Research Consortium International (APRCi). 76. https://ir.lib.uwo.ca/aprci/76 3 The Numbered Treaties and the Liberal Order Framework Jean L. Manore One of the most important ideologies prevalent within government circles during the late nineteenth century and into the twentieth was liberalism, a complex idea that manifested itself in various western countries in a variety of ways. In Canada, because of its dominance during the time the Numbered Treaties were negoti- ated, liberalism influenced not only non-Native government officials’ understand- ing of the treaties themselves, but also how they were to be implemented. Space does not allow for a full discussion of liberalism, but an examination of some of its principal characteristics will demonstrate the presence of this ideology within the texts of the Numbered Treaties, and an examination of their implementation by non-Native agents will demonstrate how the liberal order framework that developed from the ideology came to pervade non-Native interpretations of the treaties. It must be pointed out, however, that there were other ideologies and views at work that limited liberalism’s power; thus the liberal order framework in Canada had to be adaptive and at times even ambiguous in its application.
