In addition, the Public Trustee may be disease who now cannot make such a change in required to be given notice of such applications, the will at all, passing this bill solves that resulting in time and government resources problem. being expended in reviewing and responding to each application.

In addition, we will legislation in Manitoba, in 1997 Scotia Trust - be eliminating the necessity of individuals to obtained substantially similar legislation which amend their wills who have listed National Trust transferred the trustee and agency business of as their trustee.

The governments of Saskatchewan and Ontario also Mr. Speaker, although a will can be changed passed similar legislation in 1997 with respect to to name Scotia Trust in place of National Trust, the transfer fr om Montreal Trust to Scotia Trust. there would still be the additional expense for individuals to return to a lawyer to have the will Mr. Speaker, Ontario, on December 20, changed and relevant documentation prepared 2000, gave· royal assent for substantially similar and executed.

  • Government of Canada
    A Brief History of the Performance and Planning Exchange (PPX) 1996 to 2016 By Peter J. Green The name for the Performance and Planning Exchange was conceived in 1997 on a drive home from Twin Elm Rugby Park, following a rugby match and the imbibing of several libations on the part of its creator. The notion was to provide an opportunity for the exchange of knowledge and experience among those involved in planning and reporting. The genesis of PPX requires a context. Pre-PPX: 1986-1996 The realization that an organ for learning was needed followed five government-wide initiatives: Increased Ministerial Authority and Accountability (IMAA) (1986) Public Service 2000 (December 1989) Program Review – Getting Government Right (1989-93) Improved Reporting to Parliament (March 1996) Planning, Reporting and Accountability Structure (PRAS) (September 1996) IMAA (1986) In February 1986, the Mulroney Government introduced Increased Ministerial Authority and Accountability (IMAA), the second part of its public service reform initiative (the first being the Ministerial Task Force on Program Review of 1984). The IMAA program was optional. In return for increased authority over such things as contracting and classification, as well as reduced reporting requirements, a department had to enter into a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) with the Treasury Board of Canada. The MOU was to specify objective program service targets and set performance measurements to evaluate how well the department fullfilled established goals. It was a move from transactional controls to agreed strategic objectives and results with enhanced accountability based on results achieved. It was less than successful and short lived. 2 Program Review – Getting Government Right (1989-93) Building on the IMAA experience, the government, in December 1989, introduced Public Service 2000, a process to reform and renew the public service by making it less rule- bound and more innovative.

From the expansionist fever of the late nineteenth century to the redistribution of German territories immediately following the First World War, Canadians of varying backgrounds campaigned vigorously for Canada-West Indies union. Their efforts generated a transatlantic discourse that raised larger questions about Canada’s national trajectory, imperial organization, and the state of Britain’s Empire in the twentieth century. This dissertation explores the key ideas, tensions, and contradictions that shaped the union discourse over time. Race, nation and empire were central to this discourse.
