Two years have passed since the successful reopening of the Victoria Memorial Museum Building in May 2010. Good progress has been made towards consolidating the major advances achieved since the reopening as the Museum returned to steady-state operations. A comprehensive redevelopment of the Museum’s public galleries and the mounting of a lively public education programme have resulted in heightened interest in the public face of the museum and awareness of the scientific leadership, knowledge and expertise of the Museum. The next five years to 2017, another major transition will occur.T he Museum will move to expanding the Museum’s social relevance, reputation and horizons as an international first-rank Museum. It will use its renewed public facility to promote understanding and respect for the environment, reaching out to Canadians across the country via the internet, with its partners in the Alliance of Natural History Museums of Canada and other national and international networks. The search for a new President and CEO was a top priority for the Board of Trustees in 2010–2011 and the new CEO, Margaret Beckel, was appointed by the Minister of Canadian Heritage and Official Languages in June 2011.

  • Constituency Influence in Parliament
    Constituency Influence in Parliament STUART SOROKA McGill University ERIN PENNER University of British Columbia KELLY BLIDOOK Memorial University of Newfoundland This paper examines relationships between constituency characteristics and individual legislators’ behaviour in a parliamentary system. This kind of “dyadic” representation has received considerable attention in the US, particularly with the study of roll call voting. Outside the US, however, the study of individual representatives’ behaviour has been more diffi- cult. In many cases, information on individuals’ behaviour has been dif- ficult to attain; moreover, in many countries there are relatively few observable policy venues in which individual legislators have an oppor- tunity for anything other than toeing the party line. Acknowledgments: Previous versions of this paper were presented at the 2006 annual meeting of the American Political Science Association, Philadelphia PA, and at the 2006 annual meeting of the Canadian Political Science Association, Toronto ON. This research was funded by a Social Sciences and Humanities Research Council of Can- ada Standard Research Grant. We are very grateful to Denise Ledoux, Peter Niemc- zak, and others at the Library of Parliament, who provided much of the necessary data on MPs and electoral outcomes as well as valuable commentary at an early pre- sentation of these data. We are also indebted to Lori Young, Iris Simixhiu, Marie- Josée Bouffard, Michelle Meyer, and Zach Finkelstein, the principal coders on the project; to Keith Banting, Jenny Hunt, Jim Kelly, Jack Sandberg, and Arthur Sweet- man for comments on previous versions; and to the Hons. Warren Allmand, Bill Blaikie, Ed Broadbent, Joe Clark, Peter Milliken, and Senator Gerald Comeau, each of whom was kind enough to share with us some of their knowledge of Parliament and Question Period.
