Rulings of Senate Speakers 1994 – 2005 Rulings of Senate Speakers 1994 – 2005 November 2008 Prepared by the Chamber Operations and Procedure Office Introduction According to section 34 of the Constitution Act, 1867, the Speaker of the Senate is appointed by the Governor General and shall serve as Speaker until another Senator is appointed. The Speaker is vested with certain authority for the purpose of assisting the Senate in managing its agenda during a sitting day. When points of order or questions of privilege are raised, either to seek clarification in relation to a proceeding or to bring to the attention of the Senate an occurrence which may have breached a parliamentary privilege or demeaned the dignity of the Senate, Senators can present the Speaker with their assessment of the particular situation. Having heard sufficient arguments, the Speaker will consider their merits and render a decision. Rules and practices obliged the Speaker to give reasons to explain the decision. The ruling of the Speaker, however, is not necessarily final. If a Senator wishes to challenge the Speaker, the Senate must vote to sustain the ruling. This collection of rulings from 1994-2005 covers the decisions that were made by three Speakers: the Honourable Senators Roméo LeBlanc, Gildas Molgat and Daniel Hays. Paul C.

MADAM SPEAKER: Presenting Petitions Reading and Receiving Petitions Presenting Reports by Standing and Special Committees The adjourned debate on the proposed motion of the Honourable the Attorney-General. The Honourable the Member for Rhineland. MR. J. M. FROESE (Rhineland): Madam Speaker, I adjourned debate yesterday on this motion in order to get a chance to look at the report that is in Votes and Proceedings of which we have a copy today, As you know, I was not a member of the committee that drew up the lists and therefore I had no knowledge as to what committees I would be put on. I have now looked at the list of the various committees and I would kindly request that my name be added to the Privileges and Elections Committee and to the Statutory Regulations and Orders Committee. MADAM SPEAKER: All those in favour please say aye. MR. FROESE: Madam Speaker, I would like an answer on this question. HON. STEW ART E. McLEAN (Attorney-General) (Dauphin): Madam Speaker, this is a matter which poses a difficult problem. I think that it would not be advisable to accede to the request made by the Honourable the Member for Rhineland. I would point out to him that as a Member of the Legislature he is entitled to attend any of the meetings of the committees of the House, to participate in the debates, although not to vote, if he is not a member of the committee.

    PARLIAMENT OF CANADA / PARLEMENT DU CANADA The Dominion of Canada was created under the provisions of an Act of the Imperial Parliament (30 Victoria, Chapter III) passed in 1867, and formally cited as The British North America Act, 1867.

I already knew him by name, of course. I knew he was one of the great mandarins who shaped Quebec during the 1960s. I knew of his insight and expertise in all constitutional matters. I was not without knowing that he had been involved in the intellectual community and the education field before taking up a career in the public arena, and that he had been granted honourary doctorates by many universities. What I did not know and soon learned was that, first and foremost, the Honourable Arthur Tremblay was a man of great simplicity, who was nice to everyone he encountered along his way.

Department of ftli'iiaI Science The University of British Columbia Vancouver, Canada Date cd II DE-6 (2788) Abstract MISRECOGNIZED MATERIALISTS: SOCIAL MOVEMENTS IN CANADIAN CONSTITUTIONAL POLITICS, 1938-1992 Although Ronald Inglehart's New Politics theory has attracted criticism, its influential distinction between materialist and postmaterialist values tends to go unquestioned. The influence of this distinction is particularly apparent when analysts interpret the "new" social movement emphasis on esteem and belonging as a "postmaterialist" departure from a traditional, or "materialist" focus on security. This way of understanding contemporary feminist and ethnocultural-minority movements is misleading because it rests on a one- dimensional view of esteem and belonging.
