Prescription Before Diagnosis: The Dynamics of Public Policy Construction in the BC Liberal New Era, 2001-2005 By George Malcolm Abbott B.A., University of British Columbia, 1975 M.A., University of Victoria, 1978 Supervisory Committee Dr. Colin Bennett, Supervisor (Department of Political Science) Dr. Jamie Lawson, Departmental Member (Department of Political Science) Dr. James Tully, Departmental Member (Department of Political Science) Dr. Evert Lindquist, Outside Member (School of Public Administration) ii Supervisory Committee Dr. Colin Bennett, Supervisor (Department of Political Science) Dr. Jamie Lawson, Departmental Member (Department of Political Science) Dr. James Tully, Departmental Member (Department of Political Science) Dr. Evert Lindquist, Outside Member (School of Public Administration) ABSTRACT The BC Liberal New Era was an intense and often controversial period in the province’s political history. One day after being sworn into office with a massive majority, Premier Gordon Campbell announced a 25 percent personal income tax cut, potentially relinquishing one billion dollars in tax revenue. Seven weeks later, Campbell and his Finance Minister followed up with another billion dollars in business and corporate tax cuts. -

Reid Technical Report Series No. PAC/T-74-11 NOB/ECON 6-74 Northern Operations Branch Pacific Region THE IMPORTANCE OF SPORT FISHING TO THE NORTH MAINLAND COAST AND NORTH CENTRAL AREAS OF BRITISH COLUMBIA: AN ECONOMIC SURVEY by David J. Reid Department of the Environment Fisheries and Marine Service Northern Operations Branch Economics and Sociology Unit Pacific Region June, 1974 FOREWORD Large-scale economic expansion is planned for North-Western British Columbia in the next ten years. Industrial development and its concomitant population growth will lean heavily on the water resources of the area. With this in mind, the Northern Operations Branch, Economics and Sociology Unit, has undertaken a series of studies in the area. The objective of these studies is to establish the values associated with recreational uses of local waterways. The present study is devoted to the sport fisheries along the Yel10whead Route between Prince George and Prince Rupert. A second study, in preparation, examines the importance of maintaining the quality of water resources in the North-West and chooses as an example Lake1se Lake near Terrace. In the planning stage are reports on the Stewart Highway and Kitimat Valley regions. The s~ort fishing surveys carried out in 1972 were directed by myself. David Reid took over the field programs after joining the Fisher ies and Marine Service in April 1973. -

3 Good Reasons
GENOMEGENOME BRITISH BRITISH COLUMBIA COLUMBIA 2013–14 2013-2014ANNUAL REPORT ANNUAL REPORT 3 good reasons... 18 Reason 1: The Bioeconomy 20 Outreach 24 Financial Report 12 Reason 2: Natural Resources 22 Message from the Chair of the Board 33 Board Appointments 16 Reason 3: Our Future 23 Message from the President and CEO 33 Corporate Information What is genomics? Genomics is the science that aims to decipher and understand the entire genetic information of an organism (i.e. plants, animals, humans, viruses and microorganisms) encoded in DNA and corresponding complements such as RNA, proteins and metabolites. Broadly speaking, this definition includes related disciplines such as bioinformatics, epigenomics, metabolomics, nutrigenomics, pharmacogenomics, proteomics and transcriptomics. GENOME BRITISH COLUMBIA ANNUAL REPORT 2013-14 1 ...why genomics matters $ Reason 1: Reason 2: Reason 3: The Bioeconomy Natural Resources Our Future Genomics is the heart of life sciences in British Columbia: it cuts across agri-food, energy, mining and the environment, fisheries and aquaculture, forestry and human health. There are many good reasons why genomics matters to us and here are three big ones. First, genomics research is making impacts on our bioeconomy: generating jobs, creating and advancing new companies and attracting national and international investments. Second, in the energy and mining, fisheries and aquaculture, and forestry sectors genomics-based applications are providing solutions to challenges facing BC’s natural resources-based industries. Third, genomics is at the core of cutting-edge science and technologies, laying the groundwork for a healthy future for British Columbians and the Province by driving growth, productivity, commercialization and global competitiveness. -

Real Leadership Real Progress FOR BRITISH COLUMBIA AProven Plan For AGolden Decade PREMIER CAMPBELL and the bcliberals.com Real Leadership Real Progress TOWARDS A BRIGHTER FUTURE We’ve come a long way together over the past four years in British Columbia. Our economy is firing on all cylinders and we are leading the nation in job creation. Thanks to the leadership and commitment of British Columbians across our province, we are now entering a period of exceptional promise. The foundation for growth and opportunity is now in place. Our plan is working. We have a record surplus budget and are living within taxpayers’ means. Low and middle income British Columbians now have the lowest provincial income taxes in Canada. That’s the power of a strong economy.We are investing far more than ever before in key public services, like health and education. This election is your chance to help build on that strong foundation and ensure that B.C. never again slips backwards, or sells its future short. This is your chance to vote for a government that has the experience, vision, resolve and know-how to lead our province forward and keep our economy going strong. I ask for your support in re-electing a BC Liberal Government, to make B.C. the best it can be in the Golden Decade ahead. I invite you to read this booklet, consider it carefully, and support your local BC Liberal candidate on May 17, 2005 – for real leadership and real progress – for British Columbia. Let’s build on the momentum we’ve established and together let’s give the next generation an even brighter future. -
