Over the past six months we have met with many people who graciously gave of their time, on our schedule, to share their expertise on this topic. We express our thanks to Steven R. Wolff and John Ross of the Nova Scotia Pension Agency, Gordon D. Hebb, Q.c., Chief legislative Counsel and Mel Bartlett, Partner, Morneau Shepell limited and the many people in his office who worked tirelessly on this project. We greatly appreciated the written submissions received from Nova Scotians and from former MlAs. Current and retired MlAs spoke with us candidly and privately of their experiences. This input helped guide us in our deliberations. We are of the view that MlAs have a unique and demanding job in today's Nova Scotia and as a result their retirement package must be reasonable, fair and transparent.

Ahead to the Past: the Return of the Delegated Leadership Convention
Canadian Political Science Review 4(1) March 2010 Ahead to the Past: the Return of the Delegated Leadership Convention Ian Stewart and David K. Stewart (Acadia University, University of Calgary)* Abstract Since Confederation, the electorate responsible for the selection of Canadian political party leaders has progressively widened; by the end of the twentieth century, most parties were employing some variant of the universal ballot (thereby giving all party members a voice in leadership selection). Nevertheless, the 42 person executive of the Nova Scotia Progressive Conservatives rolled back this democratic tide by organizing a delegated convention to replace departing leader John Hamm. The Conservatives justified their decision by claiming that such a convention would be the most fair, the most equal, and the most exciting way to select their new leader. This article demonstrates, however, that these claims are difficult to substantiate. There was much drama on voting day, but the Conservatives were, in fact, very fortunate in that respect. Equality between constituencies was heightened, but only at the cost of introducing a substantial inequality between individual party members. As to fairness, it seemed entirely irrelevant to the proceedings. Ultimately, not even a majority of delegates approved of the change in process. Even in “counter-revolutionary” Canada, democratizing claims are difficult to resist. Since Confederation, changes in the federal franchise have widened the pool of Canadian citizens able to participate in the electoral process by eliminating restrictions based on class, gender, and race. Once members of a social group have become eligible voters their subsequent disenfranchisement has rarely been contemplated and never achieved.

Minister of Fisheries and Oceans
Honourable Ron Chisholm Minister of Fisheries and Aquaculture P.O. Box 2223 Halifax, NS B3J 3C4 January 9th, 2009 Dear Minister Chisholm, In June 2008, your Government announced its commitment to develop a Sustainable Coastal Development Strategy by 2010. We commend the government for taking on this significant initiative. We would like to be formally involved, in a consultative capacity, in the development of the Sustainable Coastal Development Strategy. We are requesting a meeting to discuss mechanisms whereby our input can be formally included in the process. The undersigned organizations support the development and implementation of a Sustainable Coastal Development strategy. Specifically, we expect the Strategy will address the following pressing coastal issues: deteriorating coastal water quality, the destruction of coastal ecosystems and habitats, the loss of marine biodiversity, protection of traditional fisheries, maintaining coastal access, and the vulnerability of our coastal areas to climate change. There is a pressing need for clearer, integrated governance and effective planning that involves the residents of coastal communities. An effective Coastal Development Strategy must result in action on the problems facing our coast. Given the sensitivity of Nova Scotia’s coasts to climate change impacts such as sea level rise, storm surges and accelerated erosion, the province should work with municipalities to reduce the vulnerability of our coastal communities to climate change. Secondly, we expect the Strategy to include federal-provincial-municipal cooperation and coordination on comprehensive land-use planning that addresses coastal issues through use of tools such as zoning, set-backs and the establishment of coastal marine protected areas within consistently applied and enforced regulations.
