As a Musical Director, Marion most recently worked for Drayton Entertainment (Cinderella: The Panto) and was a part of the first Drayton Youth Program. As a private teacher, Marion taught voice, piano and acting for 29 years to students of all ages. From festivals to recitals to performing in Disney World, Marion cherishes her memories of her time with her students dearly. Many of her students now work in the arts full time.

She remains as passionate as ever about helping artists find their true voice and shining bright.

Canada Fulbright Visiting Chair in Arctic Studies MGH 278 This course will address the range of Arctic insecurities from the Cold War security paradigm to environmental and human security (Arctic Council's Search and Rescue Agreement); Aboriginal land claims (Alaska, Canada, Greenland) to Indigenous Internationalism (Inuit Circumpolar Council, the Saami Convention); the Finnish Initiative to the Arctic Council, Permanent Participants and Observers (China, India, etc); seabed resources, the Arctic Five (UN Convention of the Law of the Sea) and the Circumpolar Inuit Declaration on Sovereignty in the Arctic; national and regional resource mega-projects, devolution and local development; the Arctic Treaty idea (EU) versus the reality of an evolving network of interlocking relationships (Arctic Governance Project); and, American and Canadian management of these Arctic issues.

    May 14, 2020 The Honourable Scott Moe Premier of Saskatchewan Room 226, 2405 Legislative Drive Regina, Saskatchewan CANADA S4S 0B3 Dear Mr. Moe, Warm greetings. Out of concern for our fellow citizens and neighbours, faith groups and houses of worship in Saskatchewan showed initiative and leadership in addressing the COVID-19 situation, suspending their activities and closing their doors before they were required to do so. The current Re-open Saskatchewan plan addresses commerce and recreation but does not address spiritual gatherings. There are increasing tensions within our communities, and pressure on leaders to make decisions about what we can and cannot do at the present. These questions and decisions go beyond permission to gather up to ten people in a worship space. We are concerned that without clear communication and directives there will be well-intentioned but misguided decisions at the local level as well as outright rogue behaviour. Faith is an important aspect of the Saskatchewan community. Census figures indicate that 75% of Saskatchewan residents consciously affiliate with a religious or spiritual tradition. For many, religious observance is a daily or weekly occurrence, thus necessitating some consideration of religious gatherings within the Re-Open Saskatchewan plan. With this in mind, Saskatchewan faith leaders recently gathered in consultation. We represent diverse traditions, including the Buddhist, Hindu, Jewish, Mormon, Muslim, and Unitarian communities, and the following Christian churches: Alliance, Anglican, Baptist, Evangelical, Lutheran (ELCIC and LCC), Mennonite, Pentecostal, Presbyterian, Roman Catholic, Ukrainian Catholic, and the United Church of Canada. We represent communities that are large and small, urban and rural.

    The Honourable Scott

    President’s Address SARM’s 2020 Annual Convention began with opening ceremonies and an address from SARM President Ray Orb. His address touched on several issues important to rural Saskatchewan. President Orb welcomed delegates to the 2020 Annual Convention with special recognition to Senator Roland Crowe, former Chief of the FSIN, former Chief of Piapot First Nations, as well as President Orb’s neighbor. Mr. Crowe was recognized for his commitment to the betterment of the First Nations people and to the province of Saskatchewan receiving the Saskatchewan Order of Merit in 1985. Roland initiated meetings with SARM, and business leaders in this province, to discuss common interests with the idea of creating a path forward for all of us. President Orb expressed the importance of municipal cooperation and collaboration, promoting the power of working with our rural, urban, and First Nations neighbors. He also shared SARM’s disappointment with SUMA’s proposed name change indicating SARM will not stand in the way of RMs working together to form municipal districts, but SARM will still stand up for rural municipalities when we believe their best interests aren’t being served. The name Municipalities of Saskatchewan implies that there is only one municipal association in this province representing all municipalities, which simply is not true. Saskatchewan is diverse. We have urban municipalities. And we have rural municipalities. We have SARM and SUMA and we believe that’s the way it should be. We champion the value of rural Saskatchewan and understand the unique challenges and opportunities that exist in our RMs.

    Politics and Policy in Brad Wall's Saskatchewan

    POLITICS AND POLICY IN BRAD ROVIN P C E E WALL’S SASKATCHEWAN H S T Daniel Béland SASKATCHEWAN L E S Compared with the other provinces, Saskatchewan did not face a profound S E economic downturn in the aftermath of the 2008 global financial and economic P C crisis. Instead, the province and the country witnessed Saskatchewan’s economic ROVIN “success story,” which was replicated in the political realm by Premier Brad Wall’s strong popularity, both within and outside his province. Why has Wall proved so successful, from a political standpoint? What policy challenges will the next premier of Saskatchewan face? Adopting a historical perspective on Saskatchewan politics, Daniel Béland provides tentative answers to these questions. Contrairement à d’autres provinces, la Saskatchewan n’a pas connu de ralentissement prononcé de l’activité économique au lendemain de la crise économique et financière de 2008. La province et le pays dans son entier ont été plutôt témoins de son succès économique et de sa réussite dans le domaine politique avec la popularité du premier ministre Brad Wall, tant dans sa province qu’ailleurs au pays. Pourquoi les efforts de Brad Wall ont-ils été couronnés de succès sur le plan politique ? Plus important encore, une fois que les résultats de l’élection seront connus, quels défis politiques le prochain premier ministre de la Saskatchewan devrait-il relever ? Adoptant une perspective historique, Daniel Béland formule des réponses provisoires à ces questions. n office as premier of Saskatchewan since November Although it would be easy to cite Lingenfelter’s apparent 2007, Brad Wall has become one of the most popu- lack of charisma to explain Wall’s political success, other I lar provincial politicians of his generation.
