I SUPPLY-HEALTH am not sure. I think they have been dealt with. There is an overall role of the ministry of Seniors that Mr. Deputy Chairman (Marcel Laurendeau): is maturing, not the least of which is lead Order, please. The committee will be continuing. responsibility on the issue of elder abuse as one of We will now start on Appropriation 3. Continuing the initiatives. Then within the Healthy Public Policy Care Programs (a) Administration: (1) Salaries general policy direction-I guess it would be the $95,200. Shall the item pass? safest terminology to use-we are attempting to Ms. Judy Wasylycla-Lels (St. Johns): Just by further co-ordinate and initiate service delivery as way of moving on this whole area of continuing care government so that in around Healthy Public Policy, and seniors, let me just ask a couple of general depending on the issue, you can have Family questions in terms of some commitments previously Services,Educati on, Health, Justice, Housing. It is made. I note that during thepast election a number part of those discussions which are government's of promises were made. One was an overall response, so there are twoline ministries and then, strategy for seniors. I am wondering if the minister under Healthy Public Policy, government's could comment at this time in terms of progress on response. meeting that promise. What I think is fair to say is that we are building Hon. Donald Orchard (Minister of Health): Mr. on and certainly maturing a number of initiatives that Deputy Chairman, let me deal first of all with the have been startedover the past 20 years in trying ministry's strategy. -(interjection)-That is advice that to maintain, and I think successfully trying to I will take from my honourable friend the member for maintain, our leadership in Canada in terms of St. Johns. services and opportunities for seniors in the Let me deal first off with the ministry's response. province of Manitoba. As we discussed earlier on in the reorganization of Ms. Wasylycla-Lels: I take it that the promise to the ministry, we have brought together under one develop a five-year health strategy for seniors is in ADM, Betty Havens, the responsibility for the works. Continuing Care Programs; inclusive of the Mr. Orchard: That is all part of it. Part of that Continuing Care Program, issues of PCH, personal component, of course, is the Health Advisory care home rehabilitation and support services, and Network task force on health promotion for the chronic care. That blends functions that were the elderly, services to the elderly. So that my line of reporting for which was both within the honourable friend knows, I have received that ministry through Regional Services and Continuing report. I have only got through the summary and the Care, and through the commission in terms of, for first to get through. I did instance, personal care homes. report.

Mr. Orchard: Again, that is part of the ongoing Mr. Orchard: Yes, I have, but you have not, so improvements to Home Care that we have maybe we cannot talk about them. I have not undertaken, some of which I hope we get to discuss released the final reports to my honourable friend, tonight in terms of service co-ordinators, et cetera. so I would not know what she was quoting from other than its being the interim reports.

  • Beyond Quotas Private Property Solutions to Overfishing
    Beyond Quotas Private Property Solutions to Overfishing ELIZABETH BRUBAKER In March 1996, Glen Clark, the premier of British Columbia, pre- dicted that the Fraser River commercial sockeye fishery would be shut down for the year. “It’s pretty clear from the numbers,” he explained, “that it won’t sustain a commercial fishery” (Cernetig 1996a). The warning followed two nearly disastrous years in Brit- ish Columbia’s salmon fishery. In 1994, several million Fraser Riv- er salmon failed to appear at their spawning grounds. The board reviewing their disappearance concluded that fishermen had come within 12 hours of wiping out the province’s most impor- tant sockeye run. “The resource is now, more than ever before, critically endangered,” it warned. “If something like the 1994 sit- uation happens again, the door to disaster will be wide open” (Fraser River Sockeye Public Review Board [FRSPRB] 1995: xii, 12). Academics agreed that a crisis loomed. Biologist Carl Walters cautioned that, in the absence of profound restructuring, the Pa- cific salmon fishery would likely go the way of the Atlantic cod fishery (Walters 1995: 4). The following season again saw salmon shortages. In August 1995, with the returning salmon numbering two-thirds less than pre-season estimates, federal Fisheries Minister Brian Tobin closed the Fraser River sockeye fishery with a grim comment: “As it stands now, we don’t have a fishery. Period. And unless the 151 Fish or Cut Bait! numbers change, we won’t have a fishery in the future” (Damsell 1995). In a news release on November 8, 1995, British Columbia’s fisheries minister, David Zirnhelt, described the year’s salmon returns as “the worst in memory,” noting that harvest volumes had declined 42 percent from recent averages (Valhalla 1996).

  • Idle No More and the Treadmill of Production: Corporate Power, Environmental Degradation, and Activism
    IDLE NO MORE AND THE TREADMILL OF PRODUCTION: CORPORATE POWER, ENVIRONMENTAL DEGRADATION, AND ACTIVISM By SAMANTHA WEST Bachelor of Arts in Sociology and Geography Oklahoma State University Stillwater, OK 2013 Submitted to the Faculty of the Graduate College of the Oklahoma State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the Degree of MASTER OF SCIENCE July, 2015 IDLE NO MORE AND THE TREADMILL OF PRODUCTION: CORPORATE POWER, ENVIRONMENTAL DEGRADATION, AND ACTIVISM Thesis Approved: Dr. Tamara Mix – Thesis Adviser Dr. Stephen Perkins Dr. Jacqueline Vadjunec ii Name: SAMANTHA WEST Date of Degree: JULY, 2015 Title of Study: IDLE NO MORE AND THE TREADMILL OF PRODUCTION: CORPORATE POWER, ENVIRONMENTAL DEGRADATION, AND ACTIVISM Major Field: INTERNATIONAL STUDIES Abstract: Idle No More (INM) is a First Nations rights social-environmental movement that began as a response to the proposal of Bill C-45 in Canada. Bill C-45, also known as the Jobs and Growth Act of 2012, deregulated “barriers to development” by making changes to many environmental protections. Deregulation made it easier for industries to pass environmental assessments in order to expand production and extraction activities. Even though this legislation decreased ability of the First Nations to hunt and fish on shared land, the Canadian parliament passed the bill on December 14, 2012 with little to no consultation with the First Nations. The purpose of this study is to understand how the Idle No More respondents on Facebook are talking about, and actively resisting, corporate power and environmental degradation within the framework of the treadmill of production. An historical context, along with literature about social movement grievance construction and the theory of the treadmill of production is included in this analysis.

    Journal of Military and Strategic Studies, Winter 2008, Vol. 10, Issue 2. CARRYING THE BURDEN OF PEACE: THE MOHAWKS, THE CANADIAN FORCES, AND THE OKA CRISIS P. Whitney Lackenbauer, Ph.D.1, DND photo 90-506 Contrary to the militaristic and soldierly associations of the term in European languages – and in common usage – the words translated from indigenous languages as “warrior” generally have deep and spiritual meaning. This deeper sense is exemplified, to use one example, in the English-Kanienkeha translation, rotiskenhrakete, which literally means, “carrying the burden of peace.” -- Taiaiake Alfred and Lana Lowe, Warrior Societies (2005) 1 This study was funded by the Canadian Forces Leadership Institute. Thanks to Jennifer Arthur-Lackenbauer, Yale Belanger, and Scott Sheffield for critical feedback on earlier drafts, as well as Brooke Montgomery for research assistance. ©Centre for Military and Strategic Studies, 2008. Journal of Military and Strategic Studies, Winter 2008, Vol. 10, Issue 2. The “Indian Summer” of 1990 profoundly changed the perception of Aboriginal- government relations in Canada. Elijah Harper defeated the Meech Lake Accord in the Manitoba Legislature, his eagle feather becoming a symbol for peaceful Native resistance and the unwillingness of Aboriginal people to tolerate their concerns being relegated to the political margins. The complex and prolonged confrontation at Oka, Quebec, proved even more destabilizing, suggesting that Aboriginal communities were volatile powder kegs that could erupt into open violence. The Mohawks had long asserted title over a parcel of land known as “the Pines,” but their failure to secure a favourable resolution through the official land claims process during the 1970s and 1980s made a bad situation worse.
