We are delighted to bring together OLIP partners and stakeholders to share knowledge, experiences and inspiration for improving the settlement and integration of immigrants in Ottawa. The Ottawa Immigration Forum takes place every two years. It is an integral part of OLIP’s governance process, as the forum is where the partnership takes stock of collective progress in implementing the Ottawa Immigration Strategy, the agreed-upon path for improving Ottawa’s capacity to attract, welcome and integrate immigrants. We are excited about the theme of this year’s forum: Planning Together for Inclusive Prosperity. The theme recognizes the essential contributions of immigrants to Ottawa’s vibrancy and prosperity, and brings attention to some of the complex challenges that need to be dealt with collectively in order to optimize the benefits of immigration for Ottawa. We invite you to contribute to - and leverage - the connections, ideas, and inspirations the Forum will afford us all; and to continue being engaged in the on-going progress we are charting together. We would like to acknowledge and thank the sponsors and contributors of the 5th Biennial Ottawa Immigration Forum: City of Ottawa; Local Employment Planning Council (LEPC); Immigration, Refugees, and Citizenship Canada (IRCC); Canadian Heritage; Heritage Ottawa; Conseil Économique et Social d’Ottawa Carleton; the Ottawa Chinese Community Service Centre; World Skills Employment Centre, Catholic Centre for Immigrants and mécènESS.

Prominent speakers will share their experiences in countering such bias and their vision and plans for progress. Moderator: Adrian Harewood, Co-host of CBC News Ottawa Topics & Speakers: • Addressing Barriers & Tracking Progress Rawlson King, Ottawa City Councillor, Rideau-Rockcliffe Ward • Building an Equity Culture Naini Cloutier, Executive Director, Somerset West Community Health Centre • Black & Afro-Caribbean Youths’ Access to Employment Support Programs Warren Clarke, Sociologist, Carleton University A2 | Addressing the Unique Barriers Facing Francophone Immigrants Location: Richmond Room The intersectionality of challenges—competing in an English language-dominated labour market and being racialized—places Francophone immigrants in a uniquely disadvantaged economic position. Even when they master the English language, access to economic opportunities is limited due to challenges including delayed credentials recognition, discrimination, and gaps in social connections. Session speakers will share their long-standing experience in facilitating access to employment for Francophone immigrant professionals. Moderator: Élise Edimo, Agente de liaison Communauté Francophone Accueillante (CFA) Hawkesbury Topics & Speakers: • Welcoming Francophone Communities: From a National Vision to Local Community Plans Yves Saint-Germain, Director, Language Policy and Francophone Communities, Settlement and Integration Policy Branch, Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada • Francophone Immigrants : A Minority in a Minority Saint-Phard Désir, Executive Director, Economic & Social Council of Ottawa-Carleton • The Economic Integration of Francophone Immigrants Charles Tshimanga, Employment Counsellor, Economic & Social Council of Ottawa-Carleton 5th Biennial Ottawa Immigration Forum | 2019 7 FIVE CONCURRENT AFTERNOON SESSIONS (SELECT ONE): 1:10 PM – 2:30 PM A3 | Empowering Entrepreneurs Location: Honeywell Room Immigration is inherently entrepreneurial and many newcomers go on to start their own business in Canada. However, just like immigration, entrepreneurship can be challenging, and especially so if you are a newcomer. Speakers will share their efforts on how they support the success of newcomer entrepreneurs in Ottawa and explore what else can be done on this front.

  • Are Politicians Rational Actors? Political Careers in the Canadian House of Commons
    POLITICAL CAREERS IN THE CANADIAN HOUSE OF COMMONS ARE POLITICIANS RATIONAL ACTORS? POLITICAL CAREERS IN THE CANADIAN HOUSE OF COMMONS By David Docherty A Thesis Submitted to the School of Graduate Studies in Partial Fulfilment of the Requirements for the Degree Master of Arts McMaster University e September 1990 MASTER OF ARTS (1990) McMASTER UNIVERSITY (Political Science) Hamilton, Ontario TITLE: Are Politicians Rational Actors? Political Careers in the Canadian House of Commons AUTHOR: David Campbell Docherty, B.A. (Wilfrid Laurier) SUPERVISOR: Professor M. M. Atkinson NUMBER OF PAGES: v, 239 -iii- ABSTRACT Conventional analysis suggests that the Canadian House of Commons suffers from a lack of experienced parliamentarians. This thesis attempts to provide an analysis of political careers in Canada, and suggests that not all careers are of such a short duration. An initial analysis of Canadian political careers found some evidence to support the argument that there is little opportunity for advancement within Parliament, and that this affects the choices individuals make about staying in political life. Politicians who made it to cabinet have had longer careers than MPs who spent their entire career as a private member. An analysis of exit patterns of politicians however, found that advancement within Parliament is not the only inducement for a long political career. MPs, both cabinet ministers and backbenchers, who leave parliament by choice tend to leave after a career that is much longer than that of members who leave through electoral defeat. This indicates that a number of MPs are not making decisions to leave office, based on their inability to receive quick promotions to positions of authority (namely cabinet or positions of authority within their parties) • The thesis concludes by suggesting that the rational choice model has helped our understanding of political careers, but does not offer an encompassing explanation.

Soon thereafter, little Iona – still a babe in arms - and her family returned to Galiano Island to her family home. Along with her three siblings, John, Harold and Marion, she was raised to be proud of her family’s pioneering roots: their grandfather, Finlay Murcheson, settled on the Island in 1882. In 1940, the Hardy family moved up the coast to the North Pacific Cannery located on the Skeena River near Prince Rupert, where her father worked as Chief of Maintenance.
