Prescription Before Diagnosis: The Dynamics of Public Policy Construction in the BC Liberal New Era, 2001-2005 By George Malcolm Abbott B.A., University of British Columbia, 1975 M.A., University of Victoria, 1978 Supervisory Committee Dr. Colin Bennett, Supervisor (Department of Political Science) Dr. Jamie Lawson, Departmental Member (Department of Political Science) Dr. James Tully, Departmental Member (Department of Political Science) Dr. Evert Lindquist, Outside Member (School of Public Administration) ii Supervisory Committee Dr. Colin Bennett, Supervisor (Department of Political Science) Dr. Jamie Lawson, Departmental Member (Department of Political Science) Dr. James Tully, Departmental Member (Department of Political Science) Dr. Evert Lindquist, Outside Member (School of Public Administration) ABSTRACT The BC Liberal New Era was an intense and often controversial period in the province’s political history. One day after being sworn into office with a massive majority, Premier Gordon Campbell announced a 25 percent personal income tax cut, potentially relinquishing one billion dollars in tax revenue. Seven weeks later, Campbell and his Finance Minister followed up with another billion dollars in business and corporate tax cuts. -

Escape into Nature: the Ideology of Pacific Spirit Regional Park by Marina J. La Salle M.A., The University of British Columbia, 2008 B.A., Simon Fraser University, 2006 A THESIS SUBMITTED IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY in THE FACULTY OF GRADUATE AND POSTDOCTORAL STUDIES (Anthropology) THE UNIVERSITY OF BRITISH COLUMBIA (Vancouver) July 2014 © Marina La Salle, 2014 ABSTRACT This dissertation investigates the ideology of Pacific Spirit Regional Park, an urban forest adjacent to the University of British Columbia in Vancouver, Canada. Using the tools of archaeology and anthropology, I analyse the history, landscape, performance, and discourse of the park to understand Pacific Spirit as a culturally-constructed place that embodies an ideology of imperialism. Central in this dynamic is the carefully crafted illusion of Pacific Spirit as a site of “nature,” placed in opposition to “culture,” which naturalizes the values that created and are communicated through the park and thereby neutralizes their politics. They remain, however, very political. The park as nature erases the history and heritage of the Indigenous peoples of this region, transforming Pacific Spirit into a new terra nullius—a site to be discovered and explored, militaristic themes that consistently underlie park programs and propaganda. These cultural tropes connect to produce a nationalistic settler narrative wherein class ideals of nature and community are evoked in the celebration of Canada’s history of colonialism and capitalist expansion—paradoxically, the very processes that have caused the fragmentation of communities and ecosystems. The park as nature also feeds into the portrayal of this space as having been saved from development and, as such, an environmental triumph. -
PARTISAN REALIGNMENT in BRITISH COLUMBIA the Case of the Provincial Liberal Party
PARTISAN REALIGNMENT IN BRITISH COLUMBIA The Case of the Provincial Liberal Party DONALD E. BLAKE AND R. KENNETH CARTY ROVINCIAL PARTY COMPETITION IN British Columbia has a sharper left-right focus than in any other part of English- Pspeaking North America. Federal institutions have allowed the province's electoral competition to become detached from the main currents of Canadas national politics, which have focused on the attempts of the old-line federal parties to broker a host of competing regional, cultural, and socioeconomic interests. The contemporary version of British Columbia's polarized provin cial party system was born in 1952 with the collapse of a wartime provincial coalition of Liberals and Conservatives. Though Social Credit soon established an electoral dominance, it did not absorb all the anti-socialist forces. The Conservatives quickly disappeared into the new party, but the Liberals managed to hold onto about 20 per cent of the vote and a handful of seats. In 1972 the NDP won an election, but with less than 40 per cent of the vote, when much of the support of the aging Social Credit government splintered and defected. Reactions to that election led to the renewal of Social Credit leadership, the creation of a more modern party organization, and the re-establishment of a new, more complete Social Credit electoral coalition. In that rebuilding Social Credit finally managed to absorb most of the Liberal élite who had resisted them for two decades. The 1975 election returned Social Credit to power and completed the creation of the modern bipolar party system. In October 1991, the stage was apparently set for a repeat of this dynamic. -
