Preliminary Paper Outline May 18, 2009 Professor John H. Currie
THE MCLACHLIN COURT AND INTERNATIONAL LAW Preliminary Paper Outline1 May 18, 2009 Professor John H. Currie Faculty of Law, University of Ottawa Introduction In its first decade, the McLachlin Court has continued to make frequent and even increased reference to international law and other international sources in its judgments (Charter and non-Charter alike). Indeed in some instances international law has proved pivotal to the outcome of the case under consideration. This has sent a clear signal to lower courts that international law will often be a relevant and perhaps even crucial consideration in resolving domestic legal issues, a development widely considered desirable by international lawyers as emblematic of Canada’s commitment to the global rule of law. Recognizing the important implications of these developments, in recent years the McLachlin Court has also made conscious efforts to address explicitly the nature of the relationship between international and Canadian law – efforts seldom found in the Court’s earlier jurisprudence. Preliminary assessments of those efforts appear to reveal an emerging “convergence” of the rules governing the relationship between various sources of international and domestic law, perhaps most notably apparent in the form of the now nearly ubiquitous “presumption of conformity” of domestic law with international law. 1 Preliminary draft for discussion purposes only, not for quotation or attribution. Please check against delivery. - 1 - Notwithstanding these significant developments, there does however continue to be uncertainty as to the precise circumstances in which international law should or must be taken into account in the domestic legal context; precisely how international law is to be used in interpreting or applying domestic law; and indeed whether some or all of international law is, also, domestic law. -
Stronger Together
Stronger Together Ashley Lam Grade Seven, Colonel Irvine School Word Count:1188 Being born at the Peter Lougheed Hospital in Calgary about thirteen years ago, little did I know that the man behind the namesake of the hospital would have such an impact on my life and the lives of fellow Albertans. Honourable Edgar Peter Lougheed once said, "I'm a community person, I think in terms of community before individual. That's the essence of Albertans and to a large extent that's the essence of Canadians as well.” He demonstrated this belief through his contributions to medical research, political actions and views, and his ability to lead the province of Alberta to strength and prosperity. Honorable Edgar Peter Lougheed was born on July 26th, 1928 in Calgary, Alberta and passed away from natural causes in 2012. Grandson to Sir James Alexander Lougheed, an early senator and accomplished businessman, Mr. Lougheed was destined for greatness. While studying at the University of Alberta he received a BA in 1951 and a LLB in 1952. Later earning a MBA from Harvard University. He then practised law in Calgary, until he joined the Mannix corporation, one of Canada’s largest construction business. Quickly moving up to the rank of vice president then director. In 1965 Peter Lougheed was the elected leader of a small political party, the Progressive Conservatives. At the time the Progressive Conservatives did not have a single seat in the legislature. The start of a strong political party in legislature seemed unlikely. That is until Mr. Lougheed led the party to victory in the 1967 election. -

How a United Church Congregation Articulates Its Choices from the 41St General Council's
“What Language Shall I Borrow?” How a United Church Congregation Articulates its Choices from the 41st General Council’s Recommendations Regarding Peacebuilding in Israel/Palestine by Donna Patricia Kerrigan A Thesis submitted to the Faculty of Emmanuel College and the Toronto School of Theology In partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Ministry awarded by Emmanuel College and the University of Toronto © Copyright by Donna Patricia Kerrigan 2016 “What Language Shall I Borrow?” How a United Church Congregation Articulates its Choices from the 41st General Council’s Recommendations Regarding Peacebuilding in Israel/Palestine Donna Patricia Kerrigan Doctor of Ministry Emmanuel College and the University of Toronto 2016 Abstract The thesis of this dissertation is that members of the United Church of Canada who respond to the Report on Israel/Palestine Policy select from its peacebuilding recommendations according to their attitudes to theological contextualizing. Two attitudes give rise to two different methods, which are seldom articulated but underlie choices regarding peace initiatives such as boycotting or ecumenical/multifaith cooperation. The dissertation includes five parts: an investigation of contextual theologies for peacebuilders; a history of the UCC and ecumenical partners who have struggled to assist peace in Israel/Palestine; strategies for peace-minded ministers; a case-study of one congregation choosing peace strategies; and recommendations for denominational communications and peacebuilding. This thesis poses a taxonomy for theologizing in context, moving from initial interaction with the other by translating local systems of thought into terms of the Gospel message. Contextualizers proceed either to immerse in the local culture (anthropological) or to engage with locals in mutual learning (synthesis). -
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. -

Defense of Place: an Overview
CHAPTER 1 INTRODUCTION i. Sense of Place--Defense of Place: An Overview: Using the Toronto Island as a case study, this investigation argues that there is a dialectical relationship between sense of place (i.e., strong emotional attachment to a place of personal significance and meaning) and defense of place (i.e., specific political, legal and other actions taken to protect a place that is threatened). That is to say, When a place to which a person or group of people is strongly attached is threatened in some way. the sense of place may lead to and condition the nature of the defense of place; and. when a place is threatened and defended, that defense of place, in turn, conditions and influences the nature of sense of place. It is impossible to fully comprehend individual and collective responses to a threat without understanding the nature of the individual and collective attachment to that which is being threatened. Actions taken in defense of place, therefore, cannot be fully understood without appreciation of the part icipants' sense of place. Similarly, the very actions and experiences associated with defense of place may, in turn, heighten and/or otherwise influence participants' sense of place. In a situation where defense of place has occurred, therefore, participants' sense of place cannot be fully comprehended without a parallel understanding of their defense of place. It follows from this that in order to properly study a dialectical relationship between sense of place and defense of place, - .t both the specific nature of the sense of place and the specific nature of the defense of place must be investigated in depth (as in the case study presented here) • Sense of place is a phenomenon of considerable interest and importance to geographers and a phenomenon Which may exist in the absence of any severe threat or any defense of place.
