"What's absolutely clear is that the administra­ tion is not willing to agree to a binding referen­ dum," Vice-President of Student and Academic Services Maria Klawe said Sunday, adding that UBC's Board of Governors must retain the ability to raise student fees as they see necessary. AMS President David Borins said the student government would continue to oppose any new ancillary fees that had not been passed by a bind­ ing student referendum. "If the university is not willing to play ball we'll oppose this fee, pure and simple," Borins said. The Ubyssey reported in September that the Student Information Technology Advisory Committee (SITAC), a group of students, faculty and staff, was considering a student technology fee to pay for the expansion of campus computer facilities and improved dial-in access. At the time, Professor Robert Goldstein, vice- chair of SITAC's parent committee on information technology (ACIT), said the university would likely hold a referendum before going ahead with a tech­ nology fee. A December letter from then Minister of Education Moe Sihota to Shirley Chan, chair of UBC's Board of Governors, asked the university to limit new ancillary fees.

  • Flooding the Border: Development, Politics, and Environmental Controversy in the Canadian-U.S
    FLOODING THE BORDER: DEVELOPMENT, POLITICS, AND ENVIRONMENTAL CONTROVERSY IN THE CANADIAN-U.S. SKAGIT VALLEY by Philip Van Huizen A THESIS SUBMITTED IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY in The Faculty of Graduate Studies (History) THE UNIVERSITY OF BRITISH COLUMBIA (Vancouver) June 2013 © Philip Van Huizen, 2013 Abstract This dissertation is a case study of the 1926 to 1984 High Ross Dam Controversy, one of the longest cross-border disputes between Canada and the United States. The controversy can be divided into two parts. The first, which lasted until the early 1960s, revolved around Seattle’s attempts to build the High Ross Dam and flood nearly twenty kilometres into British Columbia’s Skagit River Valley. British Columbia favoured Seattle’s plan but competing priorities repeatedly delayed the province’s agreement. The city was forced to build a lower, 540-foot version of the Ross Dam instead, to the immense frustration of Seattle officials. British Columbia eventually agreed to let Seattle raise the Ross Dam by 122.5 feet in 1967. Following the agreement, however, activists from Vancouver and Seattle, joined later by the Upper Skagit, Sauk-Suiattle, and Swinomish Tribal Communities in Washington, organized a massive environmental protest against the plan, causing a second phase of controversy that lasted into the 1980s. Canadian and U.S. diplomats and politicians finally resolved the dispute with the 1984 Skagit River Treaty. British Columbia agreed to sell Seattle power produced in other areas of the province, which, ironically, required raising a different dam on the Pend d’Oreille River in exchange for not raising the Ross Dam.

  • Scaling Memory: Reparation Displacement and the Case of BC
    Scaling Memory: Reparation Displacement and the Case of BC MATT JAMES University of Victoria In British Columbia, people tend to view history as something that happened last weekend.... Happily, it doesn’t matter here who your ancestors were or who did what to whom 300 years ago. Lisa Hobbs Birnie ~1996! Racist injustices have played a central role in shaping British Columbia; it could hardly be otherwise in a white-dominated settler society built on an ongoing history of Indigenous dispossession and 75 initial years of official racism against Asians. Yet despite the spread of an “age of apol- ogy” ~Gibney et al., 2008!, characterized in many locales by a growing introspection over patterns of historic injustice, considerations of repara- tion still seem marginal in BC, an anomaly to which this article responds. Charting the contours of an amnesiac culture of memory, the follow- ing pages argue that BC’s aloofness from the age of apology reflects a phenomenon I call “reparation displacement.” While some recalcitrant communities resist calls to repair injustice by denying responsibility or claiming no injustice has occurred, reparation displacement works more subtly, redirecting understandings of responsibility instead. In the BC case, reparation displacement is intertwined with the politics of federalism; issues of racist injustice in BC have been conceived almost exclusively— not only by officials but often by redress activists themselves—as mat- ters of federal rather than provincial shame. While more informed debates about Canadian belonging have followed federal apologies for wrongs inflicted on various groups, including Japanese Canadians, Chinese Cana- dians and Indigenous peoples ~James, 2006: 243–45!, BC is a different Acknowledgments: The author would like to thank Caroline Andrew, Alan Cairns, Avigail Eisenberg, Steve Dupré, Chris Kukucha, Daniel Woods, and the two CJPS reviewers for helpful comments on earlier drafts.

  • Agencies and Organizations
    Made In B.C. – Volume VI A History of Postsecondary Education in British Columbia Agencies and Organizations Bob Cowin Douglas College September 2012 Preface Is it really very important to understand how our postsecondary system acquired its current characteristics in order to foster consensus about the best way to move forward? I’m inclined to think it is, but not everyone agrees. In any event, we seem to be busier doing things in postsecondary education than in looking for patterns across those activities or in reflecting as a system on the long-term implications. A symptom of our malaise is the triumph of the public relations agenda. The documents I consult in preparing these historical reports used to be forthright in describing the organizations and, to varying extents, willing to describe some problems and challenges. Not so much anymore. Especially not for documents that are posted on the web for a year or two and then replaced by others with no apparent archiving that the public can access. There are, of course, numerous exceptions, but it seems to be increasingly difficult to find material that is “off message.” The irony is that in a period when accountability, transparency and open government have become buzzwords, I sometimes find it harder to track down recent information than for the bad old days before the information explosion. My tale, though, is not all sorrow and woe. I continue to be amazed at the power of the Internet to bring information to the corner of my desk in suburbia, and at the unexpected little gems that individuals have posted on the web.

Dear Mr. Minister: I have the honour to transmit to you the report Rights and Responsibilities in a Changing Workplace: A Review of Employment Standards in British Columbia. According to my mandate for the conduct of this review, I have sole responsibility for its contents. I can assure you that the quality of the review was improved greatly by the assistance of my Committee of Advisers and the staff of your Ministry. Members of the Committee travelled with me to all regions of the province. After our public hearings, we discussed the issues in this review on numerous occasions. I am sure that individual members will disagree with some of my recommendations, but the report would have been less responsive to the needs of all British Columbians without their wise counsel. Members of the Ministry staff assisted the Committee and me in our work enthusiastically. Their insights were extremely valuable in the formulation of my recommendations. It was a pleasure to serve my province in this way. Please convey my thanks to the Honourable Moe Sihota, who entrusted me with this important task. I wish to thank you for your generous support for myself and the Committee.

  • The Decline and Fall of the British Columbia Ministry of Education, 1972-19961
    From Educational Government to the Government of Education: The Decline and Fall of the British Columbia Ministry of Education, 1972-19961 Thomas Fleming The quarter of a century between 1972 and 1996 witnessed the end of the Imperial Age of school administration in British Columbia. The historical pattern of strong central control which had directed the course of provincial schooling for a century was beginning to unravel even before the 1960s were over, prompted in part by a malaise inside educational government and by new forces in and outside schools. Although provincial authorities entered the 1970s still confident in their capacity to control and direct public education, the Ministry of Education found itself before the decade ended, like Napoleon’s army retreating from Moscow, bewildered by an unfamiliar landscape and harried on all sides by adversaries who seemed to materialize from nowhere, each with its own special brief for provincial schools. By the 1980s, the province’s education bureaucracy, once the dominant and solitary voice in school affairs, was obliged to compete on the public policy stage with a chorus of others eager to contest the province’s right to speak on behalf of children. By the mid-1990s, the rising power of the teachers’ Federation, increasing parental and public demands for participation in educational decisions, and the Ministry of Education’s ambiguity about its own purpose had all served, in various ways, to reduce the province’s leadership in public education. Le quart de siècle compris entre les années 1972 et 1996 témoigne de la fin de l’époque « impériale » de l’administration scolaire en Colombie-Britannique.
