  • Budget Speech Would Grow by 3.8 Per Cent in 1999
    Presented to the Members of the Legislative Assembly of Ontario by The Honourable Ernie Eves,Q.c. Minister of Finance May 2,2000 FOUNDATIONS FOR PROSPERITY Mr. Speaker, the budget is balanced. Balanced budgets mean brighter futures for all Ontarians. "Never in the history of this province has a government at the end offive years hI office been able to say that everything was paid Jor and that the net debt had been reduced." Those were the words of Ontario Premier Leslie Frost in his balanced budget address of 1948. As we approach our Government's fifth anniversary I am proud to stand before you and say that, once again, the budget is balanced and the net debt has been reduced. Ontarians believed we could balance the budget in June 1995 when we were faced with a projected deficit of $11.3 billion. Ontarians believed we could balance the budget when government was spending $1 million more every hour than it was taking in. Ontarians believed we could balance the budget even though they had lived through a lO-year cycle of tax, spend and borrow that choked Ontario' 5 growth potential. killed jobs and eroded our economic health. This is an important budget not just for our Government, but for all Ontarians. While it demonstrates the successes we have achieved together, it does much more than that. It establishes the framework for brighter futures-an Ontario with new opportunities and new challenges. I would like to thank my good friend and Premier, Mike Harris, for the vision and leadership he has shown.

  • Harris Disorder’ and How Women Tried to Cure It
    Advocating for Advocacy: The ‘Harris Disorder’ and how women tried to cure it The following article was originally commissioned by Action Ontarienne contre la violence faite aux femmes as a context piece in training material for transitional support workers. While it outlines the roots of the provincial transitional housing and support program for women who experience violence, the context largely details the struggle to sustain women’s anti-violence advocacy in Ontario under the Harris regime and the impacts of that government’s policy on advocacy work to end violence against women. By Eileen Morrow Political and Economic Context The roots of the Transitional Housing and Support Program began over 15 years ago. At that time, political and economic shifts played an important role in determining how governments approached social programs, including supports for women experiencing violence. Shifts at both the federal and provincial levels affected women’s services and women’s lives. In 1994, the federal government began to consider social policy shifts reflecting neoliberal economic thinking that had been embraced by capitalist powers around the world. Neoliberal economic theory supports smaller government (including cuts to public services), balanced budgets and government debt reduction, tax cuts, less government regulation, privatization of public services, individual responsibility and unfettered business markets. Forces created by neoliberal economics—including the current worldwide economic crisis—still determine how government operates in Canada. A world economic shift may not at first seem connected to a small program for women in Ontario, but it affected the way the Transitional Housing and Support Program began. Federal government shifts By 1995, the Liberal government in Ottawa was ready to act on the neoliberal shift with policy decisions.

The provinces say they may refuse to prosecute those who fail to register their weapons. They seek the program’s suspension pending a full audit of spending. 13 January Federation of Saskatchewan Indian Nations (FSIN) Chief Aboriginal Peoples Perry Bellegarde calls for the First Nations Governance Act to be entirely rewritten, warning that Aboriginal people and organizations will enthusiastically oppose it in its cur- rent form.

Rock is believed to have been in second place. Among his reasons for dropping out of the race, Rock cites the difficulty of fundraising against the clear favourite, Paul Martin. Rock states that he will continue his campaign for re-election in his riding of Etobicoke Centre. 356 Aron Seal and Michael Munroe 15 January Sheila Copps, in a speech to the Vancouver Board of Political Parties Trade, outlines her platform for the Liberal leadership campaign.

  • The Use of Personal Anecdotes in the Ontario Legislative Assembly
    The Use of Autobiographical Stories in First Speeches to the Ontario Legislative Assembly Belinda Ellsworth 2011-2012 Intern Ontario Legislature Internship Programme (OLIP) 1303A Whitney Block, Queen’s Park Toronto, Ontario M7A 1A2 [email protected] www.olipinterns.ca Draft version: Please do not cite without the author’s permission Paper presented at the Annual Meeting of the Canadian Political Science Association, 15 June 2012, Edmonton, Alberta Introduction Brian Mulroney famously once said, “When I was driving a truck, John Turner was dancing with Princess Margaret.”1 This strategic reference to two contrasting personal histories allowed Mulroney to draw a sharp contrast between himself and his opponent. The inferences here regarding their differing values and capacities to understand the struggles of average citizens are apparent without being explicit. The intersection between the public and private spheres in political settings can be tense ground, and examples such as this one show how autobiographical anecdotes can be rendered politically relevant. Private lives are used as shorthand for political values and suitability for public office. To better understand how autobiographical stories can be invoked in the public sphere, this paper will analyze the use of personal details in parliamentary first speeches, also known as maiden speeches. By analyzing 168 first speeches delivered by newly elected members of the Ontario Legislative Assembly during four different sessions, this will provide insight into the act of “strategic self disclosure” as practiced by elected officials in the Ontario context. These Members of Provincial Parliament (MPPs) lack established records as legislators, so instead they must leverage examples from their personal and professional experiences to assert an identity and demonstrate their credentials.
