Local Option Laws in Ontario Sacred Boundaries: Local Opi'ion Laws in Ontario
SACRED BOUNDARIES: LOCAL OPTION LAWS IN ONTARIO SACRED BOUNDARIES: LOCAL OPI'ION LAWS IN ONTARIO By. KATHY LENORE BROCK, B.A. A Thesis Submitted to the School of Graduate Studies in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Master of Arts McMaster University September 1982 MASTER OF ARTS (1982) MCMASTER UNIVERSITY (Political Science) Hamilton, Ontario TITLE: Sacred Boundaries: Local Option Laws in Ontario AUTHOR: Kathy Lenore Brock, B.A. (McMaster University) SUPERVISOR: Professor T.J. Lewis NUMBER OF PAGES: vii, 162 ii Abstract The laws of Ontario operate on the principle that indivi duals should govern their own conduct unless it affects others adversely. The laws are created to protect individuals and their property and to ensure that citizens respect the rights of others. However, laws are protected and entrenched which defy this principle by permitting and fostering intolerance. This thesis addresses the local option laws of Ontario's liquor legislation which protect and legitimize invasion of personal liberty. These laws permit municipalities to prohi bit or restrict retail sale of liquor within their boundaries by vote or by COQ~cil decision. Local option has persisted t:b.roughout Ontario's history and is unlikely to be abolished despite the growing acceptance of liquor in society. To explain the longevity of these la.... ·ts, J.R. Gusfield' s approach to understanding moral crusades is used. Local option laws have become symbols of the status and influence of the so ber, industrious middleclass of the 1800's who founded Ontario. The right to control drinking reassures people vlho adhere to the traditional values that their views are respected in society. -

Montréal Durant L'ère
Université de Montréal Faculté des études supérieures et postdoctorales Une ville bien arrosée : Montréal durant l’ère de la prohibition (1920-1933) par Michael Hawrysh Département d’histoire Faculté des arts et sciences Mémoire présenté à la Faculté des études supérieures en vue de l’obtention du grade de Maîtrise des arts (M.A.) en histoire Juin 2014 © Michael Hawrysh, 2014 Université de Montréal Faculté des études supérieures et postdoctorales Ce mémoire intitulé : Une ville bien arrosée : Montréal durant l’ère de la prohibition (1920-1933) Présenté par : Michael Hawrysh a été évalué par un jury composé des personnes suivantes : David Merren, président-rapporteur Michèle Dagenais, directrice de recherche Jarret Rudy, membre du jury i Résumé Au début des années 1920, la ville de Montréal se retrouve dans une situation assez unique. À l’époque, les États-Unis et toutes les provinces canadiennes à l’exception du Québec ont adopté la prohibition de la vente d’alcool. Mais même au Québec, environ la moitié de la population de la province est alors touchée par des prohibitions locales (votées au niveau municipal), des prohibitions qui ont largement perduré tout au long de la période à l’étude. Durant cette ère de prohibition de l’alcool nord-américaine, Montréal est la plus grande ville, et une des seules sur le continent non régie par une loi sur la prohibition. C’est aussi celle qui dispose des lois les plus libérales envers l’alcool des deux côtés du 49ème parallèle grâce à la création de la Commission des Liqueurs de Québec (CLQ), le premier système de contrôle gouvernemental de l’alcool en Amérique du Nord. -

STAFF REPORT ACTION REQUIRED Review of Adult Entertainment Parlour Regulations - Amendments to Toronto Municipal Code Chapter 545 Date: October 12, 2012 To: Licensing and Standards Committee From: Executive Director, Municipal Licensing and Standards Wards: All Reference Number: SUMMARY The purpose of this report is to recommend amendments to the Adult Entertainment Parlour (“AEP”) regulations under the Toronto Municipal Code, Chapter 545, Licensing, Article XXXII. The recommendations proposed herein aim to respond to the issues raised by the industry, and to clarify enforcement interests through the updating of the bylaw provisions, while ensuring a continued balance of the needs and rights of the entertainers, the general public, and the industry as a whole. Staff propose to achieve this balance by amending the bylaw, where appropriate, to include, changes to the current; "no-touch" and "unobstructed -view" provisions, bylaw terminology, construction standards for private performance areas, and provisions to address working conditions of the entertainers. This report recommends new provisions, such as new definitions, licensing of security personnel, and health and safety posters. Lastly, this report includes recommendations to maintain current provisions, where appropriate, such as those regarding licensing of entertainers and other regulatory aspects. All Adult Entertainment Parlour owners and operators, the Adult Entertainment Association of Canada, and all licensed burlesque entertainers, were invited to participate in the consultations. -
Evaluating the Canadian Law on Surrogacy and Surrogate Motherhood
REGULATING REPRODUCTION ‐ EVALUATING THE CANADIAN LAW ON SURROGACY AND SURROGATE MOTHERHOOD by Nisha Menon A thesis submitted in conformity with the requirements for the degree of Master of Laws Faculty of Law University of Toronto © Copyright by Nisha Menon 2009 Regulating Reproduction Evaluating the Canadian Law on Surrogacy and Surrogate Motherhood Nisha Menon Master of Laws Faculty of Law University of Toronto 2009 ABSTRACT Certain provisions of the Assisted Human Reproduction Act 2004 appear to have been enacted as a legislative response to the objections to surrogacy noted by the Royal Commission on New Reproductive Technologies in 1993. However, the legislation may not be successful in tackling concerns generated by recent developments in assisted reproductive technologies. This thesis identifies the shortcomings of the AHRA provisions that impact its ability to effectively regulate the surrogate act in Canada. The discussion suggests shifting the existing regulatory framework away from the imposition of legislative prohibitions on commercial surrogacy and towards a model that is more effective in dealing with the current reality of the surrogate arrangement. Upon consideration of regulatory regimes in Israel and the United Kingdom, a framework for surrogacy is suggested that balances the reproductive rights of the individuals who participate in such an arrangement, while minimizing the potentially exploitative aspects of the surrogate act. ii ACKNOWLEDGMENTS It has been a tremendous privilege to work on this subject under the supervision of Professor Bernard Dickens. My deepest gratitude to him for all the advice, attention and encouragement he has given me and the knowledge he has shared with me in this field. -

Hales, S., Riach, K. and Tyler, M. (2019) Close Encounters: Intimate Service Interactions in Lap Dancing Work As a Nexus of ‘Self-Others- Things’
Hales, S., Riach, K. and Tyler, M. (2019) Close Encounters: Intimate service interactions in lap dancing work as a nexus of ‘self-others- things’. Organization Studies, (doi:10.1177/0170840619830127) There may be differences between this version and the published version. You are advised to consult the publisher’s version if you wish to cite from it. http://eprints.gla.ac.uk/188871/ Deposited on: 27 August 2019 Enlighten – Research publications by members of the University of Glasgow http://eprints.gla.ac.uk Close encounters: Intimate service interactions in lap dancing work as a nexus of ‘self-others-things’ Abstract Drawing on ethnographic research on lap dancing work, this paper focuses on how the subjectivities, interactions and settings that constitute the lap dancing industry come into being through three interrelated processes of encoding, embodying and embedding. In considering how these processes combine to ‘enact’ the industry, the paper draws on Merleau Ponty’s (2002) understanding of the world as a dynamic nexus of ‘self-others-things’. Focusing on how this nexus shapes lived experiences of intimate service interactions, the analysis considers how dancers continually negotiate customers’ expectations of the service encounter given the ways in which these are: (i) encoded in depictions of lap dancing work in marketing and advertising materials on club websites, (ii) embodied by lap dancers through their interactions with customers, and (iii) embedded within the materiality of lap dancing clubs. The paper shows how intimate service encounters can be understood as the outcome of a nexus of ‘self-others-things’ through which particular organizational subjectivities and settings are brought into being through these three interrelated processes.
