Mailloux, I 3 December 1972 nlike the Order of Canada, which underwent a significant structural change five years after being established, the changes made to the Order of Military U Merit since 1972 have been largely administrative. Following the Order of Canada structure and general ethos has served the Order of Military Merit well. Other developments, such as the change in insignia worn on undress ribbons, the adoption of a motto for the Order and the creation of the Order of Military Merit paperweight, are examined in Chapter Four. With the ink on the Letters Patent and Constitution of the Order dry, The Queen and Prime Minister having signed in the appropriate places, and the Great Seal affixed thereunto, the Order had come into being, but not to life. In the beginning, the Order consisted of the Sovereign and two members: the Governor General as Chancellor and a Commander of the Order, and the Chief of the Defence Staff as Principal Commander and a similarly newly minted Commander of the Order. The first act of Governor General Roland Michener as Chancellor of the Order was to appoint his Secretary, Esmond Butler, to serve "as a member of the Advisory Committee of the Order." 127 Butler would continue to play a significant role in the early development of the Order, along with future Chief of the Defence Staff General Jacques A.

  • Realigning Elections in Manitoba
    Realigning Elections in Manitoba A conference paper prepared for the Manitoba Politics & Government into the 21st Century Conference, St. John’s College, University of Manitoba November 20-22, 2008 Christopher Adams, Ph.D. Updated October 21, 2008 [Christopher Adams is a Senior Research Director at Probe Research and an Adjunct Professor in Political Studies at the University of Winnipeg and at the I.H. Asper School of Business (University of Manitoba). He welcomes comments: [email protected] or [email protected]] Realigning Elections in Manitoba Introduction In his 1955 Journal of Politics article regarding the study of American presidential elections, V.O. Key described a specific type of electoral event which he titled a “critical election”.1 A critical election marks the fact that a “realignment, both sharp and durable” is occurring within the electorate.2 While such elections are located at a specific point in time, these events are also part of “a stream of connected antecedent and subsequent behavior.” To demonstrate this, Key revealed how shifts to the Democrats could already be discerned in 1928, four years prior to Franklin D. Roosevelt’s 1932 presidential victory and the beginning of a new political era which lasted until Eisenhower’s Republican Party victory in 1952. As such, identifying electoral realignments and critical elections is essentially an historical enterprise. It is only after watching a series of electoral outcomes that one is able to label with confidence the triggering event as a “critical” realigning election, and not simply a temporary shift in partisan support. Of course, there are many types of elections and, building on the work of V.O.

  • The Canadian Conferences
    136 137 CHAPTER ELEVEN THE CANADIAN CONFERENCES “I believe Canada is big enough and diverse enough to merit a Conference of its own.” – Governor General Edward Schreyer, 1983 It frequently seemed, particularly in the early days, that the Commonwealth Study Conferences were rather fragile creatures whose future was frequently in question. They lurched from crisis to crisis, depending for their survival on the strength of will of Prince Philip and a handful of committed organisers around the world. But the Commonwealth Study Conferences spawned a highly robust offspring in Canada, one that has in some ways eclipsed the parent in that country. That Canada would have its own Conferences seemed inevitable. Indeed, two separate groups had by 1980 begun work on an all-Canada Conference – and neither knew of the other’s labours. “Have you noted your fingers? They’re different lengths, different shapes. Edward Richard Schreyer was just 22 when he won election to the Manitoba Legislative If they were all the same length, you would not be able to grasp.

    Number 74 WITH Ed Schreyer, Premier of Manitoba 1969-1977, Governor-General of Canada, 1979-1984 When the RIGHT HONOURABLE EDWARD SCHREYER, a native of Beausejour, was elected to Manitoba’s Legislative Assembly in 1958, he became the youngest Member ever. In 1965, he moved to Ottawa as a Member of Parliament before returning to lead the New Democratic Party to its first provincial election victory in 1969. In its two terms in office, his government merged several municipalities into the City of Winnipeg, lowered Medicare premiums and introduced public automobile insurance. Appointed Canada’s Governor-General in 1979, he subsequently served as Canadian High Commissioner to Australia. Currently involved with several environmental, cultural and philanthropic groups, he also serves as Chancellor of Brandon University. In the recent federal election, he re-entered federal politics as the NDP candidate in Selkirk-Interlake, but was unsuccessful. He holds Bachelor degrees in Pedagogy and Education and Masters degrees in International Relations and Economics. Before politics, he held the position of Professor of International Relations at St. Paul's College, the University of Manitoba. He was appointed a Companion of the Order of Canada in 1979.
