  • Planning for the Housing Impacts of a Hallmark Event Is Fraught with Difficulties
    PLANNING FOR THE HOUSING IMPACTS OF A HALLMARK EVENT: A CASE STUDY OF EXPO 86 By KRISTOPHER N.

I further agree that permission for extensive copying of this thesis for scholarly purposes may be granted by the head of my department or by his or her representatives.

Department of Canrnurrity and Regional Planning The University of British Columbia Vancouver, Canada na. April 26, 1988 DE-6 (2/88) i i ABSTRACT This study proposes a strategy which will assist governments, the sponsors of hallmark events, and community groups to identify and plan for the negative housing impacts of such events. Hallmark events are major one-time or recurring : events of limited duration, developed primarily to enhance the awareness, appeal and profitability of a tourist destination in the short and/or long term. World's Fairs and Olympic Games are two examples of hallmark events. The 1986 World's Fair (Expo 86) in Vancouver provided an opportunity to document the impacts of this hallmark event on the residents of a community which borders the fair site and on the planning practices of the local government.

BEL,L-TIVING, D.S.O., 0.B.E., E.D., Lieutenant-Governor of the Province, dated the arttl day of April 1979, the members took their seats, after having taken the prescribed oath and having signed the Parliamentary Roll.

  • So You Think Government Is Boring
    Lesson Plan Title So You Think Government is Boring... Audience Primarily intended for Social Studies 11, but can be modified for all grade levels. Overview We all love to listen to a good story. Government is often viewed as being "boring", but teachers can utilize the art of storytelling to act as a medium through which they can capture their students’ imaginations. Through narratives, concepts are placed within a more meaningful context, historical figures come to life, and otherwise seemingly mundane details can become memorable. Objectives • To engage students in the processes of government • To foster an appreciation for the history and traditions of government • To help students realize the impact one individual can make on government and society. So You Think Government is Boring... Page 1 Activities and Methods • Attached handouts. Teacher needs to pre-read the story he/she plans to use and pair it with the topic that best corresponds. • Teacher will read selected story at the beginning and choose from the topical pairing suggestions: Appendix A – Gracie's Finger (Electoral boundaries and size of electoral districts) Appendix B – The First “Families First” (1917) (Suffrage, minimum wage laws, first acting female Speaker of the Legislative Assembly, first female British Empire Cabinet Minister, Independent MLA, Cabinet Solidarity) Appendix C – The Agony & the Architect (History of the Parliament Buildings, impact of one individual on government and society.) Appendix D – Off With His Head! (Role of the Speaker, History of Parliament, Parliamentary traditions) Appendix E – Living Legend (Role of the Clerk of the Legislative Assembly, individual commitment to parliamentary democracy, civic engagement) Appendix F – More Than Meets the Eye (Parliamentary democracy, separating politics from government) Appendix G – En Garde! (Parliamentary tradition) Duration of Activity • Length will vary depending on how teacher chooses to incorporate individual stories into lesson plan.

  • Educational Policy-Making in British Columbia in the 1970S and 1980S
    Let’s Talk about Schools: Educational Policy-Making in British Columbia in the 1970s and 1980s Robert Whiteley he last quarter of the twentieth century is widely seen as a neoliberal age. Rooted in the thought of Austrian Friedrich Hayek and the ideas of Chicago economist Milton Friedman, Tand given purchase through the policies of Ronald Reagan in the United States, Margaret Thatcher in the United Kingdom, and other politicians elsewhere, neoliberal, or “post liberal” (Fleming 1991), governments align themselves ideologically with the political right. They are typified by centralization of power and financial and regulatory control and anti- union legislation, accelerating fiscally conservative policies that promote the private sector and reduce state involvement in the lives of citizens. Governance in British Columbia in the 1970s and 1980s largely followed this model (Dyck 1986). Through privatization and deregulation, the Social Credit governments that held office through most of these years transferred much control of the province’s economy from the public to the private sector. Accompanying these measures was the neoliberal view that education is a private rather than a public good (Apple 2006). Between the mid-1970s and the rewriting of the School Act in 1989, the funding allocated to education in British Columbia declined both in dollar terms and as a percentage of provincial GDP (Bowman 1990); school boards had little decision-making authority and were increasingly required to follow government dictates. Professor of administration and sometime coordinator of political action at the Ontario Institute for Studies in Education, Richard G. Tow nsend (1988), characterizes politics in British Columbia’s educational system during the 1970s and 1980s as “discordant” and sees it as mirroring the bipolarity in the province’s political culture.

ARTICLE Structuring Reality So That the Law Will Follow: British Columbia Teachers’ Quest for Collective Bargaining Rights Sara Slinn Introduction The British Columbia Teachers’ Federation (bctf), representing all public elementary and secondary school teachers in the province, is one of the largest and most powerful unions in British Columbia (BC). From the early days of its existence, bctf has sought to negotiate a full array of issues on behalf of teachers, and do so with an unrestricted ability to strike at the individual school district (or local) level. It has employed a sustained, sophisticated series of strategies to achieve these objectives, quickly adapting to changing political and legal environments. The bctf has had significant success in advancing its labour relations agenda, establishing a different trajectory for teachers than for most public sector workers in Canada.
