The commission mandated to hold an inquiry and public hearings, which began on May 8, 2006, was chaired by Mr. Michel Germain, assisted by Mr. John Haemmerli. As a result of its work, the commission considers that the project would satisfy part of the demand for natural gas anticipated in Quebec, Ontario and the north-eastern United States. However, it would only marginally increase the security of Quebec’s supply, primarily in the event of a major break in the pipeline system transporting gas from the west, since the North American natural gas market is integrated. I wish to note that the commission reiterates a position taken by other BAPE commissions, namely, that an essential component like the gas pipeline that will be required to connect the project to the North American natural gas system should be reviewed at the same time as the main project, in this case the LNG terminal. Since participants in the current public review have already raised concerns about the gas pipeline the commission considers that any government authorizations to begin work on the LNG terminal should be conditional on a public environmental review of the gas pipeline project leading to a favourable decision by government.

Cosgrove President Édifice Lomer-Gouin 575, rue Saint-Amable, bureau 2.10 Québec (Québec) G1R 6A6 Téléphone : 418 643-7447 (sans frais) : 1 800 463-4732 Télécopieur : 418 643-9474 [email protected] www.bape.gouv.qc.ca Quebec, October 30, 2006 Mr. William J. Cosgrove President Bureau d’audiences publiques sur l’environnement Lomer-Gouin Building 575, Saint-Amable Street, Suite 2.10 Quebec, QC G1R 6A6 Dear Mr. President: I am pleased to submit to you the review and public hearing report of the commission mandated to review the Cacouna Energy Liquefied Natural Gas (LNG) Terminal Project. Based on its analysis, the commission has concluded that the development of Petro- Canada and TransCanada PipeLines Limited’s project would contribute to maintaining, even slightly increasing, the share of natural gas in the North American market in comparison to other fossil fuels known to emit more greenhouse gases. However, the project has no market outlet since the pipeline needed to connect it to the North American market has not yet been delineated and subject to an environmental assessment. The LNG terminal would be built on federal land that is zoned industrial, but located adjacent to a human environment that is essentially rural and recreational, as well as a natural coastal environment that has high terrestrial and marine biodiversity values. The development of this major industrial facility would confirm the industrial orientation of the Municipality of Cacouna; but could constitute an impediment to local tourism and resort development. The commission, in addition to the proponent and government authorities, has suggested certain mitigation measures. Diligent implementation of these measures, along with appropriate monitoring and follow-up by government agencies, should reduce the significance of environmental effects to an acceptable level. …2 Édifice Lomer-Gouin 575, rue Saint-Amable, bureau 2.10 Québec (Québec) G1R 6A6 Téléphone : 418 643-7447 (sans frais) : 1 800 463-4732 Télécopieur : 418 643-9474 [email protected] www.bape.gouv.qc.ca 2 However, uncertainties remain in relation to the effectiveness of some measures, such as those to attenuate noise or protect birdlife. Careful follow-up therefore appears necessary in order to apply additional measures if necessary. To conclude, allow me to acknowledge the excellent work of the commission team and to express my thanks to them.

As chair of the Joint Review Panel, I am pleased to submit our report to you. Please note that the BAPE commission and the Joint Review Panel agreed to prepare a common report. The Joint Review Panel assessed the project in the context of sustainable development, applying the concept of environment held by the higher courts which includes biophysical, social, economic and cultural aspects. In addition, the Panel ensured the requirements of the Canadian Environmental Assessment Act and the Quebec Environment Quality Act were satisfied, as stipulated in the Canada-Quebec Agreement on Environmental Assessment Cooperation. I wish to express my gratitude to my colleagues John Haemmerli and Jean-Thomas Bernard, as well as to the team that assisted the Panel throughout the process. Finally, on behalf of the Joint Review Panel members, I would like to acknowledge the significant contribution of the participants in the public hearings.

  • The Four Courts of Sir Lyman Duff
    THE FOUR COURTS OF SIR LYMAN DUFF RICHARD GOSSE* Vancouver I. Introduction. Sir Lyman Poore Duff is the dominating figure in the Supreme Court of Canada's first hundred years. He sat on the court for more than one-third of those years, in the middle period, from 1906 to 1944, participating in nearly 2,000 judgments-and throughout that tenure he was commonly regarded as the court's most able judge. Appointed at forty-one, Duff has been the youngest person ever to have been elevated to the court. Twice his appointment was extended by special Acts of Parliament beyond the mandatory retirement age of seventy-five, a recogni- tion never accorded to any other Canadian judge. From 1933, he sat as Chief Justice, having twice previously-in 1918 and 1924 - almost succeeded to that post, although on those occasions he was not the senior judge. During World War 1, when Borden considered resigning over the conscription issue and recommending to the Governor General that an impartial national figure be called upon to form a government, the person foremost in his mind was Duff, although Sir Lyman had never been elected to public office. After Borden had found that he had the support to continue himself, Duff was invited to join the Cabinet but declined. Mackenzie King con- sidered recommending Duff for appointment as the first Canadian Governor General. Duff undertook several inquiries of national interest for the federal government, of particular significance being the 1931-32 Royal Commission on Transportation, of which he was chairman, and the 1942 investigation into the sending of Canadian troops to Hong Kong, in which he was the sole commissioner .

    UNIVERSITÉ DU QUÉBEC MÉMOIRE PRÉSENTÉ À L'UNIVERSITÉ DU QUÉBEC À TROIS-RIVIÈRES COMME EXIGENCE PARTIELLE DE LA MAÎTRISE EN ÉTUDES QUÉBÉCOISES PAR CATHERINE BÉLAND-FORTIER VOULONS-NOUS D'UNE TROISIÈME RACE? LE CONCEPT DE RACE DANS LES DÉBATS DE L'ASSEMBLÉE LÉGISLATIVE ( 1841-1940) AVRIL 2018 Université du Québec à Trois-Rivières Service de la bibliothèque Avertissement L’auteur de ce mémoire ou de cette thèse a autorisé l’Université du Québec à Trois-Rivières à diffuser, à des fins non lucratives, une copie de son mémoire ou de sa thèse. Cette diffusion n’entraîne pas une renonciation de la part de l’auteur à ses droits de propriété intellectuelle, incluant le droit d’auteur, sur ce mémoire ou cette thèse. Notamment, la reproduction ou la publication de la totalité ou d’une partie importante de ce mémoire ou de cette thèse requiert son autorisation. RÉSUMÉ À partir des débats reconstitués de l'Assemblée législative, ce mémoire s'intéresse à l'utilisation du concept de race chez les membres de la Chambre entre 1841 et 1940. La race est un concept complexe qui évolue à travers les contextes historiques, les sociétés et leur environnement. Comme l'a démontré Richard Jenkins, la race se construit selon les croyances et les valeurs d'un groupe; le but étant de définir ce que l'on est et ce que les autres ne sont pas. Au Québec, peu de chercheurs se sont penchés sur 1'histoire sociale de la race. Cette recherche propose donc de revenir à une époque où le terme est fréquemment utilisé pour hiérarchiser, certes, mais aussi pour qualifier un groupe particulier de personnes partageant des attributs communs.

In the following thesis, I will employ primary documents to undertake an original study of the early development of government policy towards titular honours. The evolution and development of the Canadian government's policy will be examined in the context of increasing Canadian autonomy within the British Empire/Commonwealth- The incidents that prompted the development of a Canadian made formal policy will also be discussed.
