  • If We Could All Be Peter Lougheed” Provincial Premiers and Their Legacies, 1967-2007 1
    “If we could all be Peter Lougheed” Provincial premiers and their legacies, 1967-2007 1 J.P. Lewis Carleton University [email protected] Paper for Presentation at The Annual Meeting of the Canadian Political Science Association Concordia University, Montreal June 2010 Introduction For a variety of reasons, the careers of Canadian provincial premiers have escaped explicit academic attention. Premiers are found frequently in Canadian political science literature, but more for direct roles and actions – in questions of the constitution, federalism, public policy and electoral and legislative studies – instead of longitudinal study and analysis. This fits a pattern of neglect in the field; some academics have lamented the lack of direct attention to provincial politics and history (Brownsey and Howlett 2001). The aggregate imprints of premiers are relatively ignored outside of regional and provincial treatments. No pan- Canadian assessment of premiers exists, and probably for good reason. The theoretical and methodological concerns with asking general research questions about premiers are plenty; leadership theory and historical approaches provide some foundations but any approach is going to confront conceptual challenges. This is where this study is found – in a void of precedents but a plethora of qualitative data. 2 Regardless of methodological challenges, some historians, political scientists and members of the media have not shied away from ranking and assessing national leaders. Some of the more popular treatments (from the popular culture version to the more academic approach) include Ferguson’s Bastards and Boneheads , Granatstein and Hillmer’s Prime Ministers: Ranking Canada’s Leaders , and Bliss’s Right Honourable Men . Bliss (xiv), the esteemed historian, is skeptical of such endeavours, “While this is Canadian history from Parliament Hill, I am not a Hegelian and I do not believe that political leaders, least of all prime ministers of Canada, are personifications of the world spirit.

  • COMMUNICATIONS BETWEEN P. E. L and the MAINLAND by FRANK MACKINN(>N*
    j_ ..... :'i. COMMUNICATIONS BETWEEN P. E. L AND THE MAINLAND By FRANK MACKINN(>N* ~HE most serious problem in Prince Edward Island, next to the land question, has concerned communication facil­ ities between the province and the mainland. To the Island, which is expected to share in the commercial and political endeavours of the nation, an effective link with its neighbours is a vital factor. More than any other, this problemhas com­ plicated the relations between Charlottetown and Ottawa. 1 In colonial days distance cut the Island off from inter­ course with Nova Scotia and New Brunswick-a separation that had a distinct effect on the outlook of its people and the development of its institutions. The only way of getting to and from the colony was by sailing packet in summer and by ice boat in winter. The service was irregular at the best of times, but in winter it was impossible to ship goods in quantity, ensure safe travel, or avoid long delays in mail service, when the strait was frozen over and crossings tedious and hazardous. With the coming of the steamship and the consequent increase -~. in the speed of mail service, travel, and commerce, the Island government sought to benefit by it. In 1840 the Assembly noted that the British government had let a contract to Samuel Cunard for a steamship service between Pictou, Miramichi and Quebec, and requested that the arrangement be changed to enable the boat to call at Charlottetown both ways. A reply indicated that Mr. Cunard had refused to do this, but that he would provide another boat if the local assembly would pay for it.
