  • Two Options for Pay Equity: Complete Compensation Or No Laws at All
    Legislating Under the Influence: Is the Impaired Driving Act Constitutional? Introduction As the Trudeau government sought to fulfill its campaign promise of legalizing cannabis with Bill C-45 (The Cannabis Act), it also introduced a complementary bill to address impaired driving last May. The Impaired Driving Act, or Bill C-46, was introduced by Justice Minister Wilson-Raybould and passed the same week as C-45. The purpose of C-46 is “to simplify the investigation and prosecution of impaired driving offences.”[1] However, it is also an effort to “strengthen the legislative penalties for impaired driving,” which is one of the most common criminal convictions in the country.[2] C-46 is the criminal or regulatory component of C-45. It criminalizes driving under the influence of drugs, including cannabis. The law replaces the existing framework for impaired driving and stiffens the penalties for driving under the influence of drugs and alcohol. It has two parts: the first part addresses drug-impaired driving offences and proposes a framework for roadside testing of drivers “based on a reasonable suspicion of impairment.” The second part deals with alcohol impaired driving. It makes enforcement more readily available to police officers and penalties for impaired driving are now even steeper[3] Given the heinous nature of drinking and driving, the bill was expected to receive widespread support and pass without any opposition. However, the bill was characterized as being full of legal ‘holes’ and errors, and was a source of contention between the House of Commons and the Senate.[4] Multiple lawmakers and legal organizations have expressed their concerns about the constitutionality of the bill and its implications.

  • Petro-Politics and the Staples State in an Era of Climate Crisis
    Dismantling dependency, disarming a boom: petro-politics and the staples state in an era of climate crisis by Paul Noble B.A., University of Victoria, 2010 A thesis submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements of the degree of Master of Arts in the Department of Political Science © Paul Noble, 2015 University of Victoria All rights reserved. This thesis may not be reproduced in whole or in part, by photocopy or other means, without the permission of the author. ii Supervisory Committee Dismantling dependency, disarming a boom: petro-politics and the staples state in an era of climate crisis by Paul Noble B.A., University of Victoria, 2010 Supervisory Committee Dr. James Lawson (Department of Political Science) Supervisor Dr. James Rowe (Department of Political Science) Second Reader iii Abstract Supervisory Committee Dr. James Lawson (Department of Political Science) Supervisor Dr. James Rowe (Department of Political Science) Second Reader This thesis has two central objectives. First, drawing on both the insights contained in the staples approach and the frames and narratives mobilized by contemporary political actors, it attempts to provide insight into the political-economic drivers underpinning the large and growing political influence of the Canadian oil sands. Second, it assesses the effects of this influence on Canadian society and the Canadian state. This influence is observable materially, as with the federal government’s oil sands-oriented policy changes and mobilization of the state security apparatus in its defense, and in less concrete ways, as with the rise of discourses conflating national interest with continued oil sands expansion. This thesis concludes that the effects of this influence have been negative and profound, and in an era of climate crisis, alternatives to Canada’s dominant political economic trends must be urgently sought.

  • Beyond the Carbon Curse: a Study of the Governance Foundations of Climate Change Politics in Australia, Canada and Norway
    Beyond the Carbon Curse: a Study of the Governance Foundations of Climate Change Politics in Australia, Canada and Norway by Nathan C Lemphers A thesis submitted in conformity with the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Department of Political Science University of Toronto © Copyright by Nathan Lemphers 2020 Beyond the Carbon Curse: A study of the governance foundations of climate change politics in Australia, Canada and Norway Nathan Lemphers Doctor of Philosophy Department of Political Science University of Toronto 2020 Abstract Without risking hyperbole, climate change is the greatest political challenge humanity has ever faced. The world must achieve net-zero emissions by mid-century if the most catastrophic damage is to be avoided. The prospect of environmental transformation is most remote for major fossil fuel-exporting countries. Yet amongst the world’s largest exporters of carbon, three countries are more likely to make a transition: Australia, Canada and Norway. Across these three countries, significant climate policy variation exists. Norway developed an early, broad, diverse and durable suite of climate policies compared to Australia and Canada. In this dissertation, I explain the climate policy variation of these three countries and why responses from sympathetic governments were able to make headway and entrench policies in some cases but not others. A novel analytical framework is created to explain these outcomes using within-case process tracing and a comparative case study. Data is obtained largely through interviews with 124 informants and primary document analysis. II My central finding is that the governance foundations of climate policy are critical in explaining climate policy.

  • 889 Will We Ever Have Paris? Canada's
    CANADA’S CLIMATE CHANGE POLICY AND FEDERALISM 3.0 889 WILL WE EVER HAVE PARIS? CANADA’S CLIMATE CHANGE POLICY AND FEDERALISM 3.0 JASON MACLEAN* Global climate change is at the point where politics as usual is not sufficient to combat it. The author argues that a new conceptualization of constitutionalism and federalism will be required to respond to this change. What the author calls federalism 3.0 will be a bottom-up approach to politics, where individuals are empowered by governments and institutions to shape climate policy. This bottom-up approach is encapsulated in the Paris Climate Change Agreement. Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau has publicly declared Canada’s commitment to climate leadership through mobilizing all elements of Canadian society. However, the author argues Trudeau’s policies to date are merely an example of formalistic, check-the-box constitutionalism, rather than substantive, federalism 3.0. TABLE OF CONTENTS I.
