For more information, please contact [email protected], [email protected]. Effects of Scandals on Voter Turnout in Canada by Terrance Kutney Although there has been much research done regarding the effects of political scandals on the voting share won by a political party, little research has been done on the effect of political scandals on voter turnout. This is especially true in the context of Canadian politics. This work analyzes the effect of the Canadian sponsorship scandal on voter turnout, primarily using the 2004 and 2006 iterations of the Canadian Election Study. It finds a positive rela- tionship between anger about the sponsorship scandal and the probability of voting. Closer analysis of the 2004 election shows that voters who were angry about the sponsorship scandal increased their political activity leading up to the election and were thus more likely to vote. Introduction On 19 May 2013, Nigel Wright resigned his position as chief of staff to the Cana- dian Prime Minister, having been implicated in what is now known as the Canadian Senate Expenses Scandal.

    Special Issue 2019, Article 1 from Series of 5 (Editorial) Collaborative Unity and Existential Responsibility COMMUNITY EDUCATION AND DEVELOPMENT: PERSPECTIVES ON EMPLOYMENT, EMPLOYABILITY AND DEVELOPMENT OF ENGLISH-SPEAKING BLACK MINORITY OF QUEBEC Clarence S Bayne* Director of ICED , John Molson [email protected] School of Business, Concordia Uni- versity, President of BCRC * Corresponding author ABSTRACT Background On December 7, 2018, the Black Community Forum of Montreal held a conference on “Community Education and Development: perspectives on English-Speaking Blacks and Other Minorities”. The IJCDMS Journal has selected a number of the conference papers for publication in its Special Conference Series: “Collaborative Unity and Existential Responsi- bility.” This article serves as an overview to the conference; and provides a theoretical framework against which the reader can derive a better under- standing of those papers. It allows the reader to reflect meaningfully on the optimality of the decision search rules adopted by various cultural subgroups, by comparing them to the behaviors of successful agent types in the computer simulated studies discussed in this paper. The targeted cultural sub-populations are the English-Speaking Blacks in Montreal. method of lecturing to cater for the next generation of learners.
