  • Parliamentary Language Canada[Edit]
    Parliamentary Language Parliaments and legislative bodies around the world impose certain rules and standards during debates. Tradition has evolved that there are words or phrases that are deemed inappropriate for use in the legislature whilst it is in session. In a Westminster system, this is called unparliamentary language and there are similar rules in other kinds of legislative system. This includes, but is not limited to the suggestion of dishonesty or the use of profanity. The most prohibited case is any suggestion that another member is dishonourable. So, for example, suggesting that another member is lying is forbidden.[1] Exactly what constitutes unparliamentary language is generally left to the discretion of the Speaker of the House. Part of the speaker's job is to enforce the assembly's debating rules, one of which is that members may not use "unparliamentary" language. That is, their words must not offend the dignity of the assembly. In addition, legislators in some places are protected from prosecution and civil actions by parliamentary immunitywhich generally stipulates that they cannot be sued or otherwise prosecuted for anything spoken in the legislature. Consequently they are expected to avoid using words or phrases that might be seen as abusing that immunity. Like other rules that have changed with the times, speakers' rulings on unparliamentary language reflect the tastes of the period. Canada[edit] These are some of the words and phrases that speakers through the years have ruled "unparliamentary" in the Parliament

For more information, please contact [email protected]. i Abstract The Sixties were time of conflict and change in Canada and beyond. Radical social movements and countercultures challenged the conservatism of the preceding decade, rejected traditional forms of politics, and demanded an alternative based on the principles of social justice, individual freedom and an end to oppression on all fronts. Yet in Canada a unique political movement emerged which embraced these principles but proposed that New Left social movements – the student and anti-war movements, the women’s liberation movement and Canadian nationalists – could bring about radical political change not only through street protests and sit-ins, but also through participation in electoral politics.

In sixteenth-century Krakow, doing this enabled Pan Twardowski to help the king of Poland by summoning up Barbara Radziwill, his dead wife. It enabled Tom Walker in colonial Massachusetts to locate Captain Kidd's treasure. New Hampshire farmer Jabez Stone did it in return for seven years of prosperity, and when time came to pay, was defended by Dan'l Webster. For 10 points, what is this commercial transaction most famously made in exchange for unlimited knowledge and power by Johann Faust? Answer: sell his soul to the devil (Accept equivalents, but say "sell his soul to the devil" if those words weren't used.) (Prompt on "Faustian bargain" if that answer is given before Faust is mentioned.) TOSSUP 2 has two versions, one for Vancouver and the other for Toronto. TOSSUP 2 — TORONTO ONLY (OMIT in Vancouver) This town's Historical Society leads walking tours of heritage homes of such nineteenth- century pioneers as Peter McCorquodale and Merrick Thomas, located on Front Street between Navy Street and Thomas Street, next to Lakeside Park, at the mouth of Sixteen Mile Creek. It is home to the head offices of Tim Hortons and of its largest private-sector employer, Ford Canada. Right now it's hosting the Canadian Open at its Glen Abbey Golf Course. For 10 points, name this suburban town on Lake Ontario between Burlington and Mississauga.

    Tradition and Innovation Celebrating 125 years of Hansard 1 On May 7, 1980 Madam Speaker Sauvé unveiled the above bronze plaque on the east wall of the Rotunda commemorating the 100th anniversary of Hansard Tradition and Innovation, Celebrating 125 years of Hansard commemorates the 125th anniversary of the Official Debates Reporting Branch of the House of Commons. The Hansard 125 Project Team extends its sincere thanks to the following officials and staff of the House of Commons who helped in this publication: Mr. Speaker Peter Milliken Mr. William Corbett, Clerk Mr. Louis Bard, Chief Information Officer, Information Services Michel Roy, Marcel Néron and Michel Loiselle, Printing Louis Joanis, Systems Integration and Application Development Murray Stephens, Reporting Service Chantal Laprade, Publishing Service Hansard 125 Project Team: Martin Bédard Michel Boucher Christine Burbridge Bruce Hubbard Bonita Neri Brian Potvin Anne-Marie Vinet John Wallner May 2005 2 Speaker’s Foreword I am honoured to have been asked to provide a foreword for this commemorative booklet celebrating the 125th anniversary of the Official Debates Reporting Branch of the House of Commons. For over four decades I have been an avid reader of Hansard. In my youth I was thus able to follow the day-to-day affairs of the state, and to become more and more interested in the world of politics and procedure. In 1988, I became the member of Parliament for Kingston and the Islands. As a result, my knowledge of, and appreciation for the people who record and report debates and committee proceedings only increased. This sentiment is true for all members of Parliament, who are keenly aware that the service performed by Hansard is critical to the smooth functioning of the parliamentary process.
