SCHREYER NAMES 13-MAN CABINET To Be Sworn In Tuesday July 15 Premier-designate Ed Schreyer Wednesday announced the make-up of his new cabinet which is to be sworn in July 15 by the Lieutenant-Governor of Manitoba. Mr. Schreyer himself will assume the portfolio of Industry and Commerce in a cabinet that is broadly regional as well as representative of Manitoba life. It is believed to be the youngest cabinet in Manitoba's history, with an average age of 43. Here is the new cabinet, in order of precedence, of Manitoba's first New Democratic Party administration: Edward Richard Schreyer (MLA-Rossmere) -- President of the Executive Council, Minister of Dominion-Provincial Relations; Minister charged with the administration of The Manitoba Development Act; Minister of Industry and Commerce. Saul M. Cherniack, Q.C. (MLA-St. John's) -- Minister of Finance. A.R. (Russ) Paulley (MIA-Transcona) -- Minister of Labor. Alvin Henry (Al) Mackling (MIA-St. James) -- Attorney-General. Sidney Green (MLA-Inkster) -- Minister of Health and Social Services; Commissioner of Northern Affairs. Samuel Uskiw (MLA- Lac du Bonnet) -- Minister of Agriculture. Rene Toupin (MLA -Springfield) -- Minister of Consumer and Corporate Affairs. Rev. Phillip Petursson (MLA-Wellington) -- Minister without Portfolio charged with the administration of The Manitoba Centennial Act and Cultural Affairs. Prof. Leonard Evans (MLA-Brandon East) -- Minister of Mines and Natural Resources. Peter Burtniak (MLA-Dauphin) -- Minister of Tourism and Recreation. Saul A. Miller (MLA-Seven Oaks) -- Minister of Youth and Education; Minister reponsible for the Legislative Library and The Provincial Libraries Act. Joseph P. (Joe) Borowski (MLA-Thompson) -- Minister of Transportation. Howard Pawley (MLA-Selkirk) -- Minister of Municipal Affairs; Minister of Government Services. -30- July 9, 1969. Statement by Premier-designate Ed Schreyer It has been a fairly rigidly observed custom that the names of prospective cabinet ministers are released to the public only as they are actually sworn to office. However, I find myself in the somewhat unusual circumstance, due to the abrupt termination of the last legislature, of having to advise the calling of a session of the legislature very rapidly after assuming office. I have therefore decided, after consulting with his Honour the Lieutenant-Governor and informing him of my recommendations, to make the names public so the new ministers can familiarise themselves with their job just as soon as possible. Selecting the group of men who will become the cabinet on July 15 was no easy task. It never is, I expect. But in my case it was probably more difficult than usual because I have the privilege to lead one of the most talented caucuses this province has ever seen. My problem was not finding able men to fill posts, but, rather, deciding which of many able men I would include. An exercise in subtraction, if you will, rather than the usual one of addition. Since talent reallywasnot a problem, I was able to devote most of my efforts to meeting the other criteria which must be met in forming a cabinet. As you examine the list of names you will find that they reflect, as never before in history, the cultural, linguistic and religious makeup of the Manitoba mosaic. You will also find every region of the province and almost every major occupational group represented. In short, I am in the fortunate position of being able to present the people of Manitoba with a cabinet exceptional for its talent, vigour, imagination and for its representative nature. -more- -2- I should like at this time to thank Premier Walter Weir for his courteous words when, on Monday, he announced his intention to tender the resignation of his administration. I would also like to thank him for his offer of co-operation in making the change-over as smooth as possible and for the actual demonstration of that co- operation he presented to me in our meeting of yesterday. He and I may differ, sometimes considerably, in the determination of policy, but I have never for a moment doubted his resolve to serve the best interests of Manitoba as he understood them to be. Mr. Weir was a worthy opponent on the hustings. I don't expect to find him any less so in his new role as Leader of the Opposition. -30- July, 1969.

  • Selecting Selinger: the 2009 Leadership Race and the Future of NDP Conventions in Manitoba∗
    Selecting Selinger: The 2009 Leadership Race and the Future of NDP Conventions in Manitoba∗ Jared J. Wesley, University of Manitoba [email protected] Paper for Presentation at The Annual Meeting of the Canadian Political Science Association Concordia University, Montreal June 2010 Abstract In a delegated convention held in October, 2009, the Manitoba New Democratic Party (NDP) selected former Finance Minister Greg Selinger to replace Canada's longest-serving and most popular premier, Gary Doer. Official appeals filed by the victor’s chief rival, Steve Ashton, and persistent criticism of the process in the media raised significant concerns over the method by which the new premier was selected. These complaints proved a fleeting fixation of the media, and have not harmed the NDP’s popularity or affected the smooth transition of the premiership from Doer to Selinger. Yet, questions persist as to whether the 2009 leadership race marked the last delegated convention in the history of the Manitoba New Democratic Party. This paper examines the 2009 leadership race in the context of contests past, analyzing the list of criticisms directed at the process. Grounding its findings in the comments of delegates to the 2009 Convention, it concludes with a series of probable choices for the party, as it begins the process of considering reforms to its leadership selection process. Leading contenders for adoption include a pure one-member, one-vote system and a modified version similar to that of the federal NDP. ∗ Funding for the 2009 Manitoba NDP Convention Study was provided by the Faculty of Arts, Duff Roblin Professorship, and Department of Political Studies at the University of Manitoba, and the Canada Research Chair in Indigenous Politics and Governance.

  • 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.
