  • Canadian Jurisprudence and Electoral Reform1
    1 Understanding Democracy as a Cause of Electoral Reform: Canadian Jurisprudence and Electoral Reform1 Richard S. Katz Dept. of Political Science The Johns Hopkins University Baltimore MD, USA This paper addresses the question of the sources of electoral reform that lie outside of the partisan political realm. In particular, it examines the case of electoral reforms that have been imposed, or that realistically might be imagined to be imposed, by the courts in Canada. The paper consists of three major sections. The first introduces the idea of judicial review as a source of electoral reform. The second lays out the major cases relevant to electoral reform that have been decided by the Canadian courts. The third attempts to impose some theoretical consistency on the Canadian jurisprudence in this field,2 and to suggest the possible consequences of adherence to this line of development. Introduction In an often cited article, Kenneth Benoit (2004: 363) presents a theory that “predicts that electoral laws will change when a coalition of parties exists such that each party in the coalition expects to gain more seats under an alternative electoral institution, and that also has sufficient power to effect this alternative through fiat given the rules for changing electoral laws.” In a similar vein, Josep Colomer (2005: 2) presents “a logical model and discussion of the choice of electoral systems in settings with different numbers of previously existing political parties.” These articles take clear positions on two long-standing and related debates. First (and most obviously the case with Colomer, but certainly implicit in Benoit) - and following a line dating at least to John Grumm’s 1958 article on the adoption of PR in Europe - they argue that party systems are best understood as a cause rather than a consequence of electoral systems.

This work may not be reproduced in whole or in part, by photocopy or other means, without permission of the author. ii ABSTRACT: This thesis on water and social activism in Canada is a journey into the realm of shared social understanding. Water is too precious to all forms of life to simply permit commodification for the benefit of a few at the expense of the many. The Sun Belt case adjudicated under the North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA) when compared with what prevailed under previous Canadian national law reveals severe limits to state sovereignty. A high measure of support has already been manifest around concerns and considerations which pertain to water and the potential for the growth of social activism with reference to water may well be unprecedented in Canada. There are fundamental inequalities found within the Sun Belt case. Current international trade policy coupled with private banking practices does not value the principles of sustainability, equality and justice because it is committed to the commodification of the “commons”.

  • I the EFFECTS of STATE SUBVENTIONS to POLITICAL
    THE EFFECTS OF STATE SUBVENTIONS TO POLITICAL PARTIES: A CASE STUDY OF THE GREEN PARTY OF CANADA LOIS ANNE (LISA) LAMBERT B.A., University of Lethbridge, 1991 A Thesis Submitted to the School of Graduate Studies of the University of Lethbridge in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree MASTERS OF ARTS Department of Political Science University of Lethbridge LETHBRIDGE, ALBERTA, CANADA © L.A. (Lisa) Lambert, 2007 i For Dad ii Abstract State subventions to parties have been introduced in many Western democratic states with little discussion about the effect that such payments from a state to a political party have on the party. Political scientists, though, have conducted a lively debate about the effect of these state subventions on parties and party systems. With the introduction of state subventions in Canada, there is a significant opportunity to study the effects of the subsidy on parties. This thesis is a case study of the Green Party of Canada during the first three years after the introduction of state subventions to parties. The Green Party of Canada offers us a unique opportunity to see a party emerge from fringe status with the assistance of a state subvention to the party. There are many important findings we can draw from this party’s experience of the state subvention. iii Acknowledgments I am grateful for the financial support provided by a SSHRC grant of which Dr. Lisa Young was the principal investigator. I also benefited from the support of a Canada Graduate Scholarship and the Keith and Hope Ferguson Memorial Scholarship at the University of Lethbridge.

  • Electoral System Reform in Canada: Objectives, Advocacy and Implications for Governance
    Electoral System Reform in Canada: Objectives, Advocacy and Implications for Governance F. Leslie Seidle Discussion Paper F|28 Family Network October 2002 Canadian Policy Research Networks Inc. (CPRN) 600 – 250 Albert Street, Ottawa, Ontario K1P 6M1 Tel: (613) 567-7500 Fax: (613) 567-7640 Web Site: http://www.cprn.org Electoral System Reform in Canada: Objectives, Advocacy and Implications for Governance By F. Leslie Seidle Prepared for the Law Commission of Canada October 2002 © 2002 Canadian Policy Research Networks Inc. Foreword Canada is witnessing a growing debate about its processes of democratic governance, especially the issues associated with representation and responsiveness. CPRN has examined such questions in the past, with its work on The Society We Want, a project that assessed Canadians values and their expectations of our major public and private institutions. It has also published policy research on key new institutional arrangements such as the social union and the federal role in cities. This new paper by Dr. Leslie Seidle fits squarely within this tradition of attention to governance. In this paper, he takes a close look at the current debate about the electoral system and its impact on the composition and functioning of the House of Commons and provincial legislatures. The issue of electoral reform has gained prominence in part because it is so important to Canada’s basic constitutional framework. Leslie Seidle demonstrates that there are still concerns about distortions in political parties’ elected representation relative to their popular vote in the different regions. Beyond that, however, new links are increasingly being drawn between the electoral system and issues such as women’s representation, access to legislative representation for smaller political parties, voter turnout and the power of the executive.

    2002 Abstracts / Résumés des exposés 2002 Abizadeh, Arash ([email protected]) - Can Habermasian Discourse Shake the Charge of Motivational Impotence? On Constitutional Patriotism, Rhetoric, and Affect - Civic republican and cultural nationalist critics charge that Habermas's notion of constitutional patriotism is too affectively thin and thus impotent to motivate social integration. In this paper, I undertake critically to examine the philosophical underpinnings of Habermas's political theory in order to show how the susceptibility of his notion of constitutional patriotism to the charge of impotence can be traced to a problem in the way in which he conceives of discursive practical reason. By implicitly constructing the notion of discursive rationality in contrast to, and in abstraction from, the rhetorical and affective components of language use, Habermas's notion of discursive practical reason ends up reiterating the same binaries - between reason and passion, abstract and concrete, universal and particular - that provide the tacit parameters used by his critics to motivate the charge of impotence. I undertake to demonstrate how Habermas's theory of social and political integration can only succeed once his discourse ethical theory of politics is rebuilt upon a notion of discursive practical reason that overcomes these philosophy/rhetoric binaries common to both camps. This paper fits into a larger project about the relationship between discourse, rhetoric, and identity in democratic politics.

Tim Boston Statement of Access This dissertation may be made available for loan and limited copying in accordance with the Copyright Act 1968. Tim Boston Abstract Green parties have acquired political influence in Australia, and more recently, Canada. Specifically, Australia has federal and state Green parliamentarians, while polling data demonstrates that since 1991, Canadian Greens have, taken together, increased their share of the popular vote. Notwithstanding their electoral successes, the two countries' Green parties have also had a notable effect on the public's conception of environmental issues. To date, however, there has been barely any examination of the paradigm, or more specifically, the beliefs of the federal and state/provincial Canadian and Australian Greens, let alone a comparative analysis of the two countries' set of Green parties. Hence, I provide a paradigmatic, comparative analysis of the Green parties of Canada and Australia, most substantially, via the interpretive approach which identifies the ethnographic writer/researcher as, on balance, a part of and not entirely removed from the research study (hence, the use of the word 'I' throughout the dissertation).

ENVIRONMENTAL CONSULTING In 1991, I became a member of the National Platform Committee, Liberal Party of Canada. Since moving to Victoria in January 1992, I have primarily studied environmental science, policy and law as well as issues concerning health. I have been focusing on atmosphere issues, particularly ozone depletion and climate change impacts on health, forestry, fisheries and agriculture. From January to May 1992, I coordinated the environmental research for the official opposition (Liberal Caucus), Province of British Columbia. Since May 1992, my work has involved briefing federal and provincial government officials on global warming, ultra violet radiation and ozone depletion impacts and appropriate government policy responses. I have also coordinated a series of conferences on international environmental law, climate change, ozone depletion and impacts on forestry and biodiversity. I have pro- duced 100 hours of television shows on these topics and assisted in planning several nation- al and international conferences dealing with climate change ozone depletion.
