    How the media influences public policy: A case study on the New Brunswick government’s failed attempt to sell NB Power by Daniel James McHardie Bachelor of Journalism, Political Science, Carleton University, 2000 A Thesis Submitted in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Master’s in Philosophy (Policy Studies) in the Graduate Academic Unit of the School of Graduate Studies Supervisor: Paul Howe, PhD, Department of Political Science Examining Board: John Kershaw, PhD, UNB, Forestry, Chair Tom Bateman, PhD, STU, Political Science Tom Beckley, PhD, UNB, Forestry This thesis is accepted by the Dean of Graduate Studies THE UNIVERSITY OF NEW BRUNSWICK February 2014 © Daniel McHardie, 2014 ABSTRACT Politicians, policymakers and journalists have witnessed a dramatic change in how they do their jobs in the last decade, particularly because of the growth of online and social media. Canadian public administration experts, particularly Donald Savoie, have observed significant changes to the policy-making process and specifically a shift toward governing from the centre. The media have been credited with gaining more influence on the policy process. Traditionally, agenda-setting research has explored how the media shapes the issue salience among citizens and how that affects politicians. But there has been less focus on how the media affects actual policy decisions. Using a case study methodology, this interdisciplinary study will explore the relevance of the governing from the centre model and how the newspaper, television and online media coverage influenced key political and policy decisions during the failed attempt by the New Brunswick government to sell NB Power between 2009 and 2010.

  • Sheigra Dxpedition Log 1985-2020
    SHEIGRA DXPEDITION LOG 1985-2020 A compilation of mediumwave logs from Sheigra DXpeditions Part 1: The Americas Sheigra DXpedition Log This is a compilation of logs from past Sheigra DXpeditions for stations heard in the Americas (a separate compilation has been made for those stations heard in Africa, Asia and the Pacific). Sheigra is a small crofting village in the North West Scottish Highlands. The A838 makes its way to Rhiconich where the B801 branches off to Kinlochbervie. To arrive the traveller must pass through some of the most spectacular scenery in the world. The Scottish Highlands are a vast and unique place. At the head of Loch Inchard, the side road follows the northern shore to the fishing port of Kinlochbervie, four miles northwest of Rhiconich. Beautifully situated, the B801, both single and double tack, is the narrow winding road leading north-westwards from Rhiconich with splendid views towards the lonely mountain Reay Forest, dominated by Foinaven and heads west to Kinlochbervie. Through the crofting townships of Achriesgill, Inshegra, Badcall Inchard and Oldshoremore to Blairmore and Balchrick, the road continues for some four miles towards the open sea with fine views, and ends beyond Balchrick at Sheigra, the last habitation on the west coast and a small hamlet of the western coastline. The first visit to the area took place in 1979, when Dave Kenny, Chris Greenway and James Hobson ventured north for a mini-DXpedition based in nearby Oldshoremore, just a short distance away from Sheigra. The first DXpedition to Sheigra itself took place in October 1985 with Mark Hattam, John Faulkner, Ian Kelly and David Hyams travelling north to Sutherland, whilst the latest was in October 2020 with Dave Kenny and Alan Pennington.
