It is, however, an opportu- nity, seldom given, except within the confines of a decision to trace the steps leading to the creation of the External Review Committee and the amend- ments to the Royal Canadian Mounted Police Act. In 1974 a Commission of Inquiry relating to Public Complaints, Internal Discipline and Griev- ance Procedure within the Royal Canadian Mounted Police was established. The ensuing Report, the debate over the concept of an Ombudsman, and Government Initiatives between 1976 and 1986 are documented in this Report for the benefit of the reader, along with the duties and powers of the Committee. This background may well assist in understanding the Act. The necessity of using the first Report for that purpose may be debated, but the merits of having documented under one cover the steps leading to the 1986 legislation may be appreciated by those who come before the Committee, and those students of history who wish to better understand not only how and why it was established, but also why it has some powers but not others. A debt of gratitude is owed to the personnel for their competence and dedication. 1 RETROSPECTIVE (19 74- 1 976) A second principle, no less n June 6,1974, a Commission of O important than the first, was the Com- Inquiry relating to Public Complaints, mission's desire to ensure more equi- Internal Discipline and Grievance table treatment for members of the Procedure within the Royal Canadian public and members of the Force than Mounted Police was established. current procedures allow.

Many are based on the extensive findings of a national literacy survey of 2,398 Canadian adults commissioned by Southam Inc. The survey provided the first real statistics about the state of literacy in the country; interviews with more than 100 literacy workers and learners also put a human face on a problem that affects one in four adults. Among the topics discussed are the effect of immigration and bilingualism on the literacy rate, importance of literacy skills in the workplace, use of plain language in government documents, literacy in correctional and minter education, and comparisons of Canadian and U.S. literacy. Ideas on how people can help combat

  • The History and the Future of the Politics of Policing
    Conference Draft – June 29, 2004 CONFERENCE DRAFT “The History and the Future of the Politics of Policing” Margaret Beare Sociology and Law, Osgoode Hall Law School Abstract: This paper examines the operational realities of the police executive linkages—beyond the official dictates of the law and the desired position expressed in ideological discourses on police independence. Paper draws primarily on historical and criminological literature and research, and public inquiries. The central argument of this paper is that, while there may be a somewhat clear-cut division between the policy versus the operational control of the police by the State in law and in rhetoric, the reality is quite different. The relationship between the State and the police is a dynamic relationship that changes to reflect the nature of the policing that is being carried-out, the political interests of the party in power, and to some extent the personalities of the key players within both the police services and in politics at a specific period in time. This research indicates that looking for the ‘smoking gun’—i.e. the memo or document that in writing acknowledges a directive from the executive to the police sidesteps the reality of the on-going partnerships between politics and policing. Introduction: Much current controversy surrounding policing centres around two issues: the relationship between the police and politics and the question of accountability. Dianne Martins paper has addressed the issue of accountability and while the two issues overlap, I shall be looking specifically at the political question. An understanding of the organizational workings of the police is essential to any attempt to reconcile the tensions between the dictates of police autonomy and the restraints imposed on the police.

    COMPLETING EUROPE'S INTERNAL MARKET: IMPLICATIONS FOR CANADIAN POLICY David Mutimer York Centre for International and Strategic Studies Occasional Paper Number 10 March 1990 Trade And Canadian Policy / 1 Introduction The early 1990s may find Canada on the threshold of a dramatically changed international trading environment. These changes will result from the confluence of four, essentially independent, factors affecting international trade. The first, and the one with the highest visibility in Canada, is the Canada-US Free Trade Agreement (FTA). The major provisions of the FTA will be coming into force in the first few years of the new decade, and by changing the rules of the continental American economy, promise to alter substantially Canada's trading context.1 At the same time, the rules governing the international trading context will themselves be coming under review, as the General Agreement on Tariffs and Trade (GATT) meets to consider the next round of trade liberalisation measures (the so-called Uruguay Round). The third element of this changing context is the rise in power of the trading nations of the Asian-Pacific region, and the consequent shift in international economic focus to the Pacific rim. The final change that could substantially alter Canada's international trading environment is the project, currently underway in Europe, to complete the European Community's (EC) internal market by the end of 1992. Given Canada's tremendous dependence upon international trade for her economic well-being, such a confluence of important changes deserves our careful attention. While government, business and academic analysis has focused on the first three elements listed, scant attention has been paid to the fourth.2 This is, perhaps, not surprising.

  • Canada-United States Trade Negotiations: Continental Accord Or a Continent Apart?**
    SHELLY P. BATTRAM* Canada-United States Trade Negotiations: Continental Accord or a Continent Apart?** 1. Introduction On May 21, 1986, the United States commenced historic bilateral trade negotiations with Canada which, if implemented, will impact substantially upon North American multilateral trade relations and the nature of North American manufacturing. This article attempts to highlight areas of dif- ficulty in the Canada-United States negotiations that could create major obstacles to their successful completion in a free trade agreement. In so doing, it considers the historical underpinnings of Canada-United States relations, the unique form of existing trade between the two countries and, finally, the results that the negotiations could achieve. Both Canada and the United States are experiencing severe domestic and international economic challenges. In an international setting of de- clining economic sovereignty and increased interdependence between na- tions, concern over economic vulnerability has come to the forefront in *Ms. Battram, a member of the Michigan, New York, and Ontario Bars, practices inter- national law in Toronto, Canada, with Osler, Hoskin & Harcourt: She is a member of the Council of the Section of International Law & Practice of the American Bar Association, Chairman of its Continuing Legal Education Committee, and Past Chairman of its Committee on Canadian Law. The author wishes to acknowledge her gratitude to Messrs. J. Timothy Kennish, Ross G. Gray, and Frank R.
