  • Parliamentary Internship Programme 2020-21 Annual Report
    Parliamentary Internship Programme 2020-21 Annual Report Annual General Meeting Canadian Political Science Association June 11, 2021 Dr. Paul Thomas Director Web: pip-psp.org Twitter: @PIP_PSP Instagram: @pip-psp Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/ParlInternship/ PIP Annual Report 2021 Director’s Message I am delighted to present the Parliamentary Internship Programme’s (PIP) 2020-21 Annual Report to the Canadian Political Science Association (CPSA). The COVID-19 pandemic dramatically reshaped the experience of the 2020-21 internship cohort relative to previous years. Such changes began with a mostly-virtual orientation in September, and continued with remote work in their MP placements, virtual study tours, and Brown-Bag lunches over Zoom. Yet while limiting some aspects of the PIP experience, the pandemic provided opportunities as well. The interns took full advantage of the virtual format to meet with academics, politicians, and other public figures who were inaccessible to previous cohorts relying on in-person meetings. They also learned new skills for online engagement that will serve them well in the hybrid work environment that is emerging as COVID-19 recedes. One thing the pandemic could not change was the steadfast support of the PIP’s various partners. We are greatly indebted to our sponsors who chose to prioritize their contributions to PIPs despite the many pressures they faced. In addition to their usual responsibilities for the Programme, both the PIP’s House of Commons Liasion, Scott Lemoine, and the Programme Assistant, Melissa Carrier, also worked tirelessly to ensure that the interns were kept up to date on the changing COVID guidance within the parliamentary preccinct, and to ensure that they had access to the resources they needed for remote work.

  • Canada's Defence Budget
    Canada’s Defence Budget September, 2017 In June, Canada’s Minister of National Defence Harjit Sajjan announced a 73% increase in military spending, which, if it happens, would take Canada’s military budget to $32.7 billion a year. 1 This is a complete about face from policies under the previous government, which cut Canada’s defense spending (along with other cuts to government spending). 2 Minister of Foreign Affairs Chrystia Freeland said in her speech about Canada’s new foreign policy priorities, “Canadian diplomacy and development sometimes require the backing of hard power.”3 Freeland suggested in discussion with the press that there are “many threats to the liberal international order” and so Canada must be ready to fight wars internationally to protect our values and human rights. 4 Taken together, it appears that a push is being made to increase Canada’s involvement in wars abroad. The logic offered by Minister Freeland for this move is not compelling. A key point from her speech is that the US is no longer interested in being a leader on the world stage and that “Canada’s geography has meant that we have always been able to count on American self- interest to provide a protective umbrella beneath which we have found indirect shelter” but this is for some reason no longer appropriate. There is no good explanation as to why. In fact, the government of the US is seeking to greatly increase its military budget, already by far the biggest in the world. 5 And there is no threat to Canada’s territory or “our values” that hasn’t existed for years.

    ANNUAL REPORT 2007 - 2008 When you can’t breathe, nothing else matters. WE HELP YOU BREATHE EASIER The Lung Association, Alberta & NWT (TLA) was first established as the Alberta Tuberculosis Association in 1939. During the tuberculosis (TB) epidemic, it educated the public about TB, conducted mass chest x-rays and provided rehabilitation services for TB sanatorium patients. Recognized as one of Alberta’s oldest health charities, The Lung Association has expanded its initiatives over the years to include asthma education, treatment and research, and overall lung health awareness. Today, The Lung Association focuses its efforts and resources on all aspects of lung health including asthma, COPD, flu and infectious diseases, sleep apnea, environmental issues, tobacco control, and continued work in TB. Supported by its incredible board, staff team, and research and service sections, The Lung Association is about more than just a cause, it is about Albertans and their lung health.
