House of Commons Debates CANADA House of Commons Debates VOLUME 138 Ï NUMBER 022 Ï 2nd SESSION Ï 37th PARLIAMENT OFFICIAL REPORT (HANSARD) Tuesday, November 5, 2002 Speaker: The Honourable Peter Milliken CONTENTS (Table of Contents appears at back of this issue.) All parliamentary publications are available on the ``Parliamentary Internet Parlementaire´´ at the following address: http://www.parl.gc.ca 1263 HOUSE OF COMMONS Tuesday, November 5, 2002 The House met at 10 a.m. necessarily mean that the item will actually be debated or that it will be debated any time soon. Prayers The Order Paper contains numerous items for which notice has been given but which have not yet been debated. The parliamentary secretary suggested that proceedings on supply days are different. Ï (1005) [English] While I agree that certain aspects of supply have a character distinct from other proceedings, it seems to me that unless the rules POINTS OF ORDER on supply are explicit, the usual practices should be followed. This is SUPPLY DAY MOTIONS—SPEAKER'S RULING the case with notice. The Speaker: On October 30, 2002, the hon. Minister of State [English] and government House leader raised a point of order concerning the When the House adopted the modernization report, it seems to me interpretation of Standing Order 81(14)(a), a provision adopted that we took a step away from the situation described by Mr. Speaker pursuant to the report of the Special Committee on Modernization. Fraser. There is now an expressed desire to have some certainty [Translation] about what is to be debated on an upcoming allotted day. But, while the House has taken one step in that direction, it has not actually Standing Order 81 (14) (a) reads as follows: decided to prohibit notice of more than one motion. This may be an (14)(a) Written notice of an opposition motion on an allotted day shall be filed area that requires a second look. with the Clerk of the House not later than one hour prior to the opening of the sitting on the day preceding the allotted day, and the Speaker shall read the text of the Therefore, for the present, the Chair will accept that the procedural motion at the opening of that sitting and shall indicate whether the motion is one that requirements of Standing Order 81(14)(a) have been met provided shall come to a vote pursuant to section (16) of this Standing Order. that the notice or notices of motion are duly filed with the Clerk so [English] the Speaker can properly inform the House of their filing on the day before the allotted day on which they will be debated. When Orders The hon. government House leader contested the fact that the of the Day are reached on the allotted day, if more than one motion Speaker had read two notices of motion filed with the Clerk on the remains on notice, then the Speaker will have to determine which day preceding the allotted day scheduled for October 31. Let me now motion will be called for debate. address those concerns. Finally, let me just say that I recognize and accept the wisdom of While it is unusual for more than one notice of motion to be filed my predecessors in this House in refusing to speculate on for debate on a supply day, the practice of submitting notice of more hypothetical situations. However, for those who fear that this than one motion is certainly not without precedent. uncertainty might be exploited to mischievous ends, may I say that, In adopting the modernization committee report, the House taken together, our practice and our Standing Orders seem clear appears to have opted for an orderliness and a certainty in its enough to permit the Chair to intervene without hesitation, in the proceedings by requiring the Speaker, on the day before the debate is highly unlikely event of an exaggerated number of notices being to take place, to inform the House of the text of the allotted day filed. motion to be debated. The hon. government House leader argues that Meanwhile, if members feel that this is not satisfactory or that this would, in effect, prevent the Speaker from announcing notice of they wish to create greater certainty, the Standing Committee on more than one motion. Procedure and House Affairs may wish to examine the matter The text of Standing Order 81(14)(a) refers to only one notice; further. however, our practice has never prevented consideration of more *** than one motion on an allotted day. I refer the House to the words of Mr. Speaker Fraser on December 7, 1989, in Hansard at page 6583- BUSINESS OF THE HOUSE 4: The Speaker: Having given that ruling, it is my duty, pursuant to [Translation] Standing Order 81(14), to inform the House that the motion to be According to our rules and practice, the purpose of notice is to give warning to the considered tomorrow during consideration of the business of supply House of an item of business that might be raised for debate. The notice does not is as follows: 1264 COMMONS DEBATES November 5, 2002 Routine Proceedings That, in the opinion of this House, all Canadians are to be treated equally and in the petition, that rural route mail carriers frequently earn less than fairly, and since Prairie wheat and barley producers are discriminated against solely the minimum wage when their pay is calculated on an hourly basis. because of their location and occupation, this House call on the government to take immediate action to end this discrimination and give Prairie farmers the same marketing choices that are available in the rest of Canada.

  • Sustainability and Indigenous Interests in Regional Land Use Planning: Case Study of the Peel Watershed Process in Yukon, Canada
    Sustainability and Indigenous Interests in Regional Land Use Planning: Case Study of the Peel Watershed Process in Yukon, Canada by Emily Caddell A thesis presented to the University of Waterloo in fulfillment of the thesis requirement for the degree of Master of Environment Studies in Environment and Resource Studies Waterloo, Ontario, Canada, 2018 ©Emily Caddell 2018 Author’s Declaration I hereby declare that I am the sole author of this thesis. This is a true copy of the thesis, including any required final revisions, as accepted by my examiners. I understand that my thesis may be made electronically available to the public. ii Abstract Canada’s northern territories, including the Yukon, are facing significant social, economic, political and ecological change. Devolution processes and comprehensive land claim agreements with self- governing First Nations have given rise to new land and resource decision making processes, including Regional Land Use Planning (RLUP). Project level Environmental Assessments (EAs) have been a main tool for governments to meet some of their fiduciary responsibilities to Indigenous peoples under Section 35 of Canada’s Constitution and to mitigate potentially adverse environmental impacts of non- renewable resource development projects. However, project level EAs are ill-equipped to address cumulative effects, regional conservation needs, broad alternatives and overall sustainability considerations central to Indigenous interests. RLUPs, if designed and authorized to guide project planning and assessment, are a more promising tool for addressing these interests, but how well they can serve both sustainability and Indigenous interests is not yet suitably demonstrated. RLUP processes established under comprehensive land claim agreements with First Nations in the Yukon enable cooperative decision-making about the future of the territory, including the pace and scale of non-renewable resource development and regions set aside for conservation.
