Despite the frustrating lack of source material, Mr. D’Ombrain has done an admirable job of mapping and explaining the machinery of the Ontario Government.

Instead, he highlights some of the ambiguities and open questions that arise in the conflict between the form of a given administration and 100 Lesmill Road, the manner in which it actually operates.

    Paradigm Freeze WHY IT IS SO HARD TO REFORM HEALTHCARE POLICY IN CANADA Edited by Harvey Lazar John N. Lavis, Pierre-Gerlier Forest, and John Church Institute of Intergovernmental Relations The Institute of Intergovernmental Relations The Institute is the only academic organization in Canada whose mandate is solely to pro- mote research and communication on the challenges facing the federal system. Current research interests include fiscal federalism, health policy, the reform of federal political institutions and the machinery of federal-provincial relations, Canadian federalism and the global economy, and comparative federalism. The Institute pursues these objectives through research conducted by its own associates and other scholars, through its publication program, and through seminars and conferences. The Institute links academics and practitioners of federalism in federal and provincial govern ments and the private sector. The Institute of Intergovernmental Relations receives ongoing financial support from the J.A. Corry Memorial Endowment Fund, the Royal Bank of Canada Endowment Fund, the Government of Canada, and the governments of Manitoba and Ontario. We are grateful for this support, which enables the Institute to sustain its program of research, publication, and related activities.

Les priorités de recherche de l’Institut portent présentement sur le fédéralisme fiscal, la santé, la modification des institutions politiques fédérales, les mécanismes des relations fédérales-provinciales, le fédéralisme canadien dans l’économie mondiale et le fédéralisme comparatif. L’Institut réalise ses objectifs par le biais de recherches effectuées par ses chercheurs et par des chercheurs de l’Université Queen’s et d’ailleurs, de même que par des congrès et des colloques.

  • A Political and Legal Analysis of Ontario's Environmental
    A POLITICAL AND LEGAL ANALYSIS OF ONTARIO’S ENVIRONMENTAL BILL OF RIGHTS Mark S. Winfield* The concept of an environmental bill of rights has been central to the environmental law reform agenda in Ontario for the past two decades. In this context, the enactment of Bill 26, An Act Respecting Environmental Rights in Ontario1 by the Ontario Legislature in December 1993, represents a major achievement for Ontario’s environmental movement. The Environmental Bill of Rights (EBR) has been described “as the most important piece of environmental legislation enacted in Ontario since the Environmental Assessment Act of 1975.”2 This article provides an overview of the evolution of the EBR concept in Ontario, and of the development of Bill 26. It summarizes the major elements of the Ontario EBR, and provides a brief assessment of its impact on the formulation of environmental law and policy in Ontario over the past four years. The article concludes with a discussion of the implications of the Ontario bill for the future of environmental law reform elsewhere in Canada. I Origins of the Environmental Bill of Rights Concept 1. Common Law Environmental “Rights ” Prior to the enactment of provincial environmental protection statutes in the 1950s, 60s and 70s, the common law provided a number of grounds on which someone affected by environmental damage might obtain redress, in the form of either injunctions or awards of compensatory damages. These common law causes of action might be described as a kind of environmental “rights.” Among the most important of the common law causes of action were nuisance, which was based on the unreasonable or unnecessary interference with the enjoyment of property, riparian rights, which protected downstream owners of property bordering on water bodies from interference with the flow or quality of water by upstream users, trespass, which was founded on the unauthorized entry into or damage to property, and strict liability, which made ‘This article is a condensation and updating of a more detailed analysis of the Ontario EBR: M.

[REVISED VERSION: 29 August 2013] Introduction As one of the Legislative Assembly’s independent offiCers, the Environmental Commissioner of Ontario (ECO) was born out of the Environmental Bill of Rights (EBR) almost two deCades ago. With the first Commissioner being appointed one year following passage of the Bill in 1993, the Commissioner’s office Continues to act independently from the government, providing an objeCtive review of the implementation of the EBR and ComplianCe amongst Ministries. Over the years, the Commissioner’s offiCe has evolved under the leadership of two offiCial ECOs, Eva Ligeti (1994 – 1999) and Gord Miller (2000 – present), amidst the administration of three governments of different politiCal stripes, the proliferation of the internet and soCial media, and multiple pendulum shifts between publiC ConCern about environmental issues and eConomiC reCessions. From the early days of the government’s Task ForCe that led to establishing the ECO, to today, this analysis will foCus on the institutional evolution of the offiCe over the past twenty years. In partiCular, the evolution of the ECO from ConCeption to law; the evolution of the ECO as a publiC eduCator; the evolution of the ECO as a watchdog; and the evolution of the ECO’s legislative relevanCe.
