November 26, 2013 By-Election Report: Carbonear - Harbour Grace November 26, 2013 By-Election Report: Carbonear - Harbour Grace Office of the Chief Electoral Officer March 20, 2014 Honourable Ross Wiseman Speaker House of Assembly Main Floor, East Block Confederation Building St. John’s, NL Dear Speaker: Section 214 of the Elections Act, 1991 states that, “the Chief Electoral Officer shall publish within 9 months after each general election and each by-election a book containing pertinent statistics of the election, including poll by poll results of each electoral district.” In accordance with this, I am pleased to present you with this report on the November 26, 2013 by-election in the electoral district of Carbonear – Harbour Grace. I have arranged for copies to be distributed to all Members of the House of Assembly. I trust this meets with your approval. Sincerely, Victor Powers Chief Electoral Officer On Monday, November 4, 2013, a Writ of Election was issued for a by-election in the electoral district of Carbonear – Harbour Grace. The by-election, set for November 26, 2013, was called to fill a vacancy resulting from the resignation of Progressive Conservative Member of the House of Assembly, Jerome Kennedy, on October 2, 2013. The preliminary list of electors for the district, dated November 4, 2013, contained 8955 names. Updates to the list continued during the election period until 8 p.m. on November 19, 2013 (Advance Poll day), resulting in a final revised list of electors containing 9140 names. The final revised list included electors who applied to vote by Special Ballot, voted at the advance polls and applied to be added to the list (and also included other changes such as elector moves or corrections to electors’ names and/or addresses). On November 20, 2013, the final revised list was given to the district Returning Officer for distribution to the political parties and candidates. This list was used by the Returning Officer and all election officials as the Official List of Electors on polling day. Official Nomination day was Saturday, November 16, 2013. At the close of nominations three candidates had complet- ed the official nomination process and were added to the ballot for the by-election: Jack Harrington - Progressive Conservative Party Sam Slade - Liberal Party Charlene Sudbrink - New Democratic Party Voters in the by-election had the opportunity to vote by one of three methods: • at one of the 36 regular polls held on November 26, 2013 • at one of the four advance polls held on November 19, 2013 • by Special Ballot (from November 4, 2013 to November 22, 2013) Special Ballot applications were available on the Elections Newfoundland and Labrador website, by mail, or during specified hours at Elections Newfoundland and Labrador’s head office in St. John’s or the District Returning Office in Carbonear-Harbour Grace. Once a Special Ballot application was approved, a Special Ballot Voting kit was issued, and the applicant was then unable to vote by any other method. A completed Special Ballot voting kit could be returned by mail or dropped off at either of the above noted office locations within the specified deadlines. A total of 267 Special Ballot applications were processed at Special Ballot locations. Of the 267 applications processed, all 267 ballots were returned by the specified deadlines. A total of 776 ballots were cast at the four advance polls held on November 19, 2013. 530 ballots were cast at the two advance polls in Carbonear, and 246 ballots were cast at the two advance polls in Harbour Grace. A total of 4732 ballots were cast at the 36 regular polls held on November 26, 2013. A combined total of 609 electors were sworn in at the advance polls, Special Ballot polls and regular polls on polling day. The preliminary count on election night indicated a total of 5492 votes were cast resulting in 2313 votes for Jack Harrington, 2769 votes for Sam Slade and 410 votes for Charlene Sudbrink. The official addition of the votes took place on Friday, November 29, 2013, at the district Returning Office which con- firmed the preliminary vote counts were correct for all candidates. Therefore, the official results for the by-election (which represented a 60.3 per cent turnout) were: Jack Harrington - 2313 Sam Slade - 2769 Charlene Sudbrink - 410 Rejected ballots - 16 Total - 5508 On December 11, 2013, Liberal candidate Sam Slade was sworn in as a member of the House of Assembly. Subsequent to the by-election and prior to the completion of this report, representation in the House of Assembly changed as follows: • On January 20, 2014, Mount Pearl South MHA Paul Lane, who had been sitting as a Progressive Conservative in the House of Assembly, announced his decision to join the Liberal Party. • On February 4, 2014, Dale Kirby and Christopher Mitchelmore, sitting as independent members since October 29, 2013, joined the Liberal Party. • On February 28, 2014, Virginia Waters MHA and former Premier Kathy Dunderdale, who had been sitting as a Progressive Conservative in the House of Assembly, resigned her seat. Currently, representation in the House of Assembly consists of 33 Progressive Conservative Members, 11 Liberal Members, 3 New Democratic Members, and 1 vacant seat. The Chief Electoral Officer would like to extend appreciation to the district staff for overseeing an efficient by-election: Debbie Reynolds (Returning Officer), Linda Murphy (Election Clerk) and Ruth Colbourne (Special Ballot Officer). Thanks are also extended to the many other district election workers and to the staff at the Office of the Chief Electoral Officer for a job well done.

  • The Places of Bay Roberts
    1 2 COVES, STREETS, FIELDS AND MORE: The Places of Bay Roberts Researched & Written by: Folklore Graduate Field School Class of 2017 Edited by: Katherine Harvey Oral History Roadshow Series #005 Heritage Foundation of Newfoundland and Labrador Intangible Cultural Heritage Office St. John’s, NL, Canada Layout / design by Jessie Meyer 2018 3 INTRODUCTION The recollections in this booklet were recorded by students in Memorial University’s Folklore Department. For three weeks in September 2017, Memorial’s newest folklore graduate students arriving from Northern Ontario, all parts of the United States, Iran, and Israel, were transplanted to Bay Roberts to participate in a cultural documentation field school: a required course that takes place at the start of the first semester of the graduate program. The field school participants were warmly welcomed by local residents, and this booklet is both a “give back” to the community, as well as a product of what the students learned. The academic goals of the field school are for students to learn first-hand about cultural documentation: techniques of audio-recorded interviewing, ethnographic observation, writing fieldnotes, documentary photography, video-recording, organizing and archiving field data, analysing field data, and public presentation skills. In addition to skills and techniques, students learn to work in teams, to meet new people, and to recognize local traditions and culture— this is at the heart of folklore fieldwork. The warmth with which we were welcomed to Bay Roberts—from the very first day was a highlight. It was a cold and rainy Sunday afternoon, but students enjoyed the “Toutons and Tunes” walking tour, which ended in the Red Shed (a special place indeed!) with tea, toutons, scrunchions, crab legs, and traditional tunes—what a delicious introduction! Over the course of the next three weeks, students were invited into people’s homes, where they shared cups of tea, baked goods, 4 and stories.

  • Entanglements Between Irish Catholics and the Fishermen's
    Rogues Among Rebels: Entanglements between Irish Catholics and the Fishermen’s Protective Union of Newfoundland by Liam Michael O’Flaherty M.A. (Political Science), University of British Columbia, 2008 B.A. (Honours), Memorial University of Newfoundland, 2006 Thesis Submitted in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Master of Arts in the Department of History Faculty of Arts and Social Sciences © Liam Michael O’Flaherty, 2017 SIMON FRASER UNIVERSITY Summer 2017 Approval Name: Liam Michael O’Flaherty Degree: Master of Arts Title: Rogues Among Rebels: Entanglements between Irish Catholics and the Fishermen’s Protective Union of Newfoundland Examining Committee: Chair: Elise Chenier Professor Willeen Keough Senior Supervisor Professor Mark Leier Supervisor Professor Lynne Marks External Examiner Associate Professor Department of History University of Victoria Date Defended/Approved: August 24, 2017 ii Ethics Statement iii Abstract This thesis explores the relationship between Newfoundland’s Irish Catholics and the largely English-Protestant backed Fishermen’s Protective Union (FPU) in the early twentieth century. The rise of the FPU ushered in a new era of class politics. But fishermen were divided in their support for the union; Irish-Catholic fishermen have long been seen as at the periphery—or entirely outside—of the FPU’s fold. Appeals to ethno- religious unity among Irish Catholics contributed to their ambivalence about or opposition to the union. Yet, many Irish Catholics chose to support the FPU. In fact, the historical record shows Irish Catholics demonstrating a range of attitudes towards the union: some joined and remained, some joined and then left, and others rejected the union altogether.

Northeast Historical Archaeology/Vol. 41, 2012 1 The Seventeenth-Century Brewhouse and Bakery at Ferryland, Newfoundland Arthur R. Clausnitzer, Jr. and Barry C. Gaulton In 2001 archaeologists working at the 17th-century English settlement at Ferryland, Newfoundland, uncovered evidence of an early structure beneath a mid-to-late century gentry dwelling. A preliminary analysis of the architectural features and material culture from related deposits tentatively identified the structure as a brewhouse and bakery, likely the same “brewhouse room” mentioned in a 1622 letter from the colony. Further analysis of this material in 2010 confirmed the identification and dating of this structure. Comparison of the Ferryland brewhouse to data from both documentary and archaeological sources revealed some unusual features. When analyzed within the context of the original Calvert period settlement, these features provide additional evidence for the interpretation of the initial settlement at Ferryland not as a corporate colony such as Jamestown or Cupids, but as a small country manor home for George Calvert and his family.
