  • Parliamentary Internship Programme 2020-21 Annual Report
    Parliamentary Internship Programme 2020-21 Annual Report Annual General Meeting Canadian Political Science Association June 11, 2021 Dr. Paul Thomas Director Web: pip-psp.org Twitter: @PIP_PSP Instagram: @pip-psp Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/ParlInternship/ PIP Annual Report 2021 Director’s Message I am delighted to present the Parliamentary Internship Programme’s (PIP) 2020-21 Annual Report to the Canadian Political Science Association (CPSA). The COVID-19 pandemic dramatically reshaped the experience of the 2020-21 internship cohort relative to previous years. Such changes began with a mostly-virtual orientation in September, and continued with remote work in their MP placements, virtual study tours, and Brown-Bag lunches over Zoom. Yet while limiting some aspects of the PIP experience, the pandemic provided opportunities as well. The interns took full advantage of the virtual format to meet with academics, politicians, and other public figures who were inaccessible to previous cohorts relying on in-person meetings. They also learned new skills for online engagement that will serve them well in the hybrid work environment that is emerging as COVID-19 recedes. One thing the pandemic could not change was the steadfast support of the PIP’s various partners. We are greatly indebted to our sponsors who chose to prioritize their contributions to PIPs despite the many pressures they faced. In addition to their usual responsibilities for the Programme, both the PIP’s House of Commons Liasion, Scott Lemoine, and the Programme Assistant, Melissa Carrier, also worked tirelessly to ensure that the interns were kept up to date on the changing COVID guidance within the parliamentary preccinct, and to ensure that they had access to the resources they needed for remote work.

  • September 27, 2017 Honourable Karen Casey Nova Scotia Minister
    www.nsgeu.ca [email protected] September 27, 2017 Honourable Karen Casey Nova Scotia Minister of Finance PO Box 187, 1723 Hollis St., Halifax NS B3J 2N3 [email protected] Dear Minister Casey: Re: Marijuana Legalization Following your meeting last June with Canada’s other Ministers of Finance where the issue of marijuana legalization was discussed you stated, "That is really the priority for the three ministers right now — to look at how we do that consultation, when we do it and what questions we ask, what information we want to hear from the public." In preparation for this consultation, the Nova Scotia Government and General Employees Union has commissioned a report, A Public Health Approach to Cannabis Legalization, to critically assess the public health literature pertaining to cannabis distribution and retail from a public health perspective. I am pleased to share that report with you. To protect public health in Nova Scotia as cannabis legalization moves forward, it’s important to design a strong distribution and retail format guided by the best available public health evidence. With primary distribution options ranging from privatized to a publicly owned system, the decision regarding how to distribute cannabis should involve weighing public health protection motivations versus promoting private commercial interests. As you will see, researchers and public health professionals are clear: implementing a publicly owned system for cannabis distribution and retail is the best way to protect public health, whereas a privatized system may put public health at risk. In short, if Nova Scotia owns it, Nova Scotia controls it. You can choose to prioritize public health or commercial interests.
