  • Directors'notice of New Business
    R-2 DIRECTORS’ NOTICE OF NEW BUSINESS To: Chair and Directors Date: January 16, 2019 From: Director Goodings, Electoral Area ‘B’ Subject: Composite Political Newsletter PURPOSE / ISSUE: In the January 11, 2019 edition of the Directors’ Information package there was a complimentary issue of a political newsletter entitled “The Composite Advisor.” The monthly newsletter provides comprehensive news and strategic analysis regarding BC Politics and Policy. RECOMMENDATION / ACTION: [All Directors – Corporate Weighted] That the Regional District purchase an annual subscription (10 issues) of the Composite Public Affairs newsletter for an amount of $87 including GST. BACKGROUND/RATIONALE: I feel the newsletter is worthwhile for the Board’s reference. ATTACHMENTS: January 4, 2019 issue Dept. Head: CAO: Page 1 of 1 January 31, 2019 R-2 Composite Public Affairs Inc. January 4, 2019 Karen Goodings Peace River Regional District Box 810 Dawson Creek, BC V1G 4H8 Dear Karen, It is my pleasure to provide you with a complimentary issue of our new political newsletter, The Composite Advisor. British Columbia today is in the midst of an exciting political drama — one that may last for the next many months, or (as I believe) the next several years. At present, a New Democratic Party government led by Premier John Horgan and supported by Andrew Weaver's Green Party, holds a narrow advantage in the Legislative Assembly. And after 16 years in power, the long-governing BC Liberals now sit on the opposition benches with a relatively-new leader in Andrew Wilkinson. B.C.'s next general-election is scheduled for October 2021, almost three years from now, but as the old saying goes: 'The only thing certain, is uncertainty." (The best political quote in this regard may have been by British Prime Minister Harold MacMillan who, asked by a reporter what might transpire to change his government's course of action, replied: "Events, dear boy, events." New research suggests that MacMillan never said it — but it's still a great quote!) Composite Public Affairs Inc.

  • BC Veterinarians Need Your Help Combined
    Hello If you wish to help BC veterinarians address the shortage of veterinarians, you may wish to write your local MLA and ask them to support and increase to the number of BC students trained as veterinarians. Below is a sample email for you to send to your local MLA. You can also add to the email or replace it with your own. After the sample email, on page 2 and 3, is a list of all MLA email addresses to help you to find your MLA contact information. Should you wish to learn more about the shortage of veterinarians and the need for additional BC students to be trained as veterinarians, please scroll down to page 4 to read our summary document. Your help is greatly appreciated! Dear MLA, I wish to add my name to the list of British Columbians who find the shortage of veterinarians in BC unacceptable. We understand that BC can add an additional 20 BC student seats to BC’s regional veterinary college, but that the government declined to do so, citing costs. In the interest of animal health and welfare issues including relief from suffering and unnecessary death, public health, and biosecurity for BC, we ask you to ask the Minister of Advanced Education Anne Kang to fund an additional 20 BC seats at WCVM effective immediately. As a BC resident, I want my voice added as an individual who cares about the health and welfare of animals and who wishes the government to provide funding to help alleviate the shortage of veterinarians in BC.

    Democracy & Parliament The Legislative Assembly of British Columbia Table of Contents Introduction 3 Parliament 3 Levels of Government 4 Map of Canada 6 Electoral Districts of B.C. Map 8 Parliamentary System of Government 10 The Queen and Her Representatives 15 The Prime Minister and Premiers 18 Executive Council 20 The Legislative Assembly of British Columbia 22 The Speaker 26 1 Introduction Canada is a federation of ten provinces and three territories. British Columbia is one of the ten provinces and its law-making body is the Legislative Assembly of British Columbia. The basic principles that govern Canada are set out in the Constitution Act, 1867 and the Constitution Act, 1982. Under these Acts, the federal government and the provincial governments have different areas of responsibility, but both levels are based on the British model of parliamentary democracy and follow a similar procedure to make decisions. Parliament The term “parliament” describes the period of time between elections during which Members of Parliament (MPs) in Canada’s federal parliament or Members of the Legislative Assembly (MLAs) in British Columbia conduct their work. It comes from the French word parler—to speak. A parliament is made up of one or more sessions. A session can last a few days or several years. A parliament ends when the Prime Minister federally or the Premier provincially asks the Queen’s representative to dissolve parliament and call a general election. 2 3 Canada typically holds a federal general election every four years. In B.C., the provincial Constitution Act sets a maximum term of four years for the Legislative Assembly.
