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.

  • The NDP's Approach to Constitutional Issues Has Not Been Electorally
    Constitutional Confusion on the Left: The NDP’s Position in Canada’s Constitutional Debates Murray Cooke [email protected] First Draft: Please do not cite without permission. Comments welcome. Paper prepared for the Annual Meetings of the Canadian Political Science Association, June 2004, Winnipeg The federal New Democratic Party experienced a dramatic electoral decline in the 1990s from which it has not yet recovered. Along with difficulties managing provincial economies, the NDP was wounded by Canada’s constitutional debates. The NDP has historically struggled to present a distinctive social democratic approach to Canada’s constitution. Like its forerunner, the Co-operative Commonwealth Federation (CCF), the NDP has supported a liberal, (English-Canadian) nation-building approach that fits comfortably within the mainstream of Canadian political thought. At the same time, the party has prioritized economic and social polices rather than seriously addressing issues such as the deepening of democracy or the recognition of national or regional identities. Travelling without a roadmap, the constitutional debates of the 80s and 90s proved to be a veritable minefield for the NDP. Through three rounds of mega- constitutional debate (1980-82, 1987-1990, 1991-1992), the federal party leadership supported the constitutional priorities of the federal government of the day, only to be torn by disagreements from within. This paper will argue that the NDP’s division, lack of direction and confusion over constitution issues can be traced back to longstanding weaknesses in the party’s social democratic theory and strategy. First of all, the CCF- NDP embraced rather than challenged the parameters and institutions of liberal democracy.

MADAM SPEAKER: Presenting Petitions Reading and Receiving Petitions Presenting Reports by Standing and Special Committees The adjourned debate on the proposed motion of the Honourable the Attorney-General. The Honourable the Member for Rhineland. MR. J. M. FROESE (Rhineland): Madam Speaker, I adjourned debate yesterday on this motion in order to get a chance to look at the report that is in Votes and Proceedings of which we have a copy today, As you know, I was not a member of the committee that drew up the lists and therefore I had no knowledge as to what committees I would be put on. I have now looked at the list of the various committees and I would kindly request that my name be added to the Privileges and Elections Committee and to the Statutory Regulations and Orders Committee. MADAM SPEAKER: All those in favour please say aye. MR. FROESE: Madam Speaker, I would like an answer on this question. HON. STEW ART E. McLEAN (Attorney-General) (Dauphin): Madam Speaker, this is a matter which poses a difficult problem. I think that it would not be advisable to accede to the request made by the Honourable the Member for Rhineland. I would point out to him that as a Member of the Legislature he is entitled to attend any of the meetings of the committees of the House, to participate in the debates, although not to vote, if he is not a member of the committee.
