THE CHARTER 25 YEARS LATER: THE GOOD, THE BAD, AND THE CHALLENGES © REMARKS OF THE RIGHT HONOURABLE BEVERLEY MCLACHLIN I. INTRODUCTION This year, as we celebrate the 25th anniversary of the adoption of the Charter, journals and newspapers are replete with evaluations. Some are positive, some less so. Some are downright critical. Today, I would like to offer my reflections on the good news and the bad news about the Charter,a quarter-century on. I will begin with a declaration of interest. Over the years I have said and written a lot about Canada's constitutional bill of rights. My first foray, written when I was still a callow law student, was an article arguing that Canada should not constitutionalize rights, based on a comparison of rights protection in the United States under an entrenched bill of rights and rights protection in Canada without one.

  • Redbrick Communications 2017 Social Media Survey
    2017 Municipal Social Media Survey By now, Ontario municipalities recognize that to get in front of their audiences, they have to be on social media. Municipalities are becoming more creative, sophisticated and engaging on social media. A significant portion of municipal Heads of Council are getting social online, too. Read on for a comprehensive look at how Ontario’s municipalities are using social media. 81% of municipalities are on social media Ontario Municipalities on Social Media 361 Year over year 321 300 2017 271 2016 240 2015 2014 193 2013 127 2012 2011 25 2010 Social Media Use by Channel Which social media channels do municipalities use the most?* 98% 22% 71% 31% 8% From 2016 to 2017, Facebook use grew even more – with almost all social municipalities using it.

  • The History and the Future of the Politics of Policing
    Conference Draft – June 29, 2004 CONFERENCE DRAFT “The History and the Future of the Politics of Policing” Margaret Beare Sociology and Law, Osgoode Hall Law School Abstract: This paper examines the operational realities of the police executive linkages—beyond the official dictates of the law and the desired position expressed in ideological discourses on police independence. Paper draws primarily on historical and criminological literature and research, and public inquiries. The central argument of this paper is that, while there may be a somewhat clear-cut division between the policy versus the operational control of the police by the State in law and in rhetoric, the reality is quite different. The relationship between the State and the police is a dynamic relationship that changes to reflect the nature of the policing that is being carried-out, the political interests of the party in power, and to some extent the personalities of the key players within both the police services and in politics at a specific period in time. This research indicates that looking for the ‘smoking gun’—i.e. the memo or document that in writing acknowledges a directive from the executive to the police sidesteps the reality of the on-going partnerships between politics and policing. Introduction: Much current controversy surrounding policing centres around two issues: the relationship between the police and politics and the question of accountability. Dianne Martins paper has addressed the issue of accountability and while the two issues overlap, I shall be looking specifically at the political question. An understanding of the organizational workings of the police is essential to any attempt to reconcile the tensions between the dictates of police autonomy and the restraints imposed on the police.
