K. OLSON 2018-50 JOHN (JACK) BOAN 2 / 23 Biographical Sketch: John (Jack) Alexander Boan was born in 1917 on a farm near Briercrest, Saskatchewan to mother Dorothy Holtby, a teacher, and father, Alexander McAlpine Boan. He joined the Royal Canadian Air Force in 1940 and served by transmitting messages via Morse code and later training other wireless operators. In 1949 Jack graduated from the University of Saskatchewan with a Bachelor of Arts with Honours and then married Jean Bernice Campbell, with whom he raised three children. Boan attended Ohio State University on a full scholarship and graduated in 1953 with a Ph.D. in Agricultural Economics. Boan worked as an economist with the federal government, on the Defense Research Board; the Economics Division of the Department of Northern Affairs and Natural Resources; and as a member of the Royal Commission on Health Research Staff from 1961 to 1963. It was from this Royal Commission that the Canadian Health Economics Research Association (CHERA), later known as the Canadian Association for Health Services and Policy Research (CAHSPR) was created, with Jack a long-time member. In 1962 he joined the staff at the University of Saskatchewan, Regina Campus as an Associate Professor of Economics and a full Professor in 1969. Boan helped draft the 1963 “Regina Beach Manifesto” which assisted with the development of the campus in Regina that would later become the University of Regina, with which he was affiliated for 60 years. Boan was heavily involved in his community, giving back through many charitable endeavors. Jack was a huge supporter of The United Way and founded the University of Regina Group for Refugees in 1980, a group that assisted refugees with obtaining university education. He served on the board of the Regina Council on Aging and worked with the Regina Anti-poverty Ministry, the Family Service Bureau and the Central Regina Early Learning Centre. He was a member of the Woodrow Lloyd Memorial Lecture Committee and a founding member of the John Howard Society. Boan retired from the University of Regina in 1983 as Professor Emeritus and in 1986 the Department of Economics created the “Jack Boan Medal in Economics.” In 1994 Jack was awarded an Honorary Doctorate from the University of Regina and in 2017 he was awarded the Global Citizen Award from the Saskatchewan Council for International Cooperation. Jack published his biography, Spaces to Fill and a Century to Do It in 2017, he died in 2018.

    ALLAN BLAKENEY: DEFTLY NAVIGATING THUNDERSTORMS Brian Topp Saskatchewan Premier Allan Blakeney was one of Canada’s greatest premiers, and there is much for us to learn from his approach to issues ranging from managing a resource dependent economy and the Charter, to how to run a fiscally responsible, economically literate and socially progressive social democratic government. Premier ministre de la Saskatchewan, Allan Blakeney a été l’un des meilleurs chefs provinciaux du pays et aurait beaucoup à nous apprendre aujourd’hui sur la gestion d’une économie tributaire des ressources naturelles, sur la Charte des droits et libertés tout comme le fonctionnement d’un gouvernement social-démocrate qui est à la fois financièrement responsable, économiquement compétent et socialement progressiste. first met Allan Blakeney, one of Canada’s greatest pre- CEOs; constitutional issues; national unity; trade issues.

  • By Roy Romanow, John Whyte, and Howard Leeson. Carswell/Methuen, Toronto, 1984, Pp
    378 ALBERTA LAW REVIEW [VOL. XXIV, NO. 2 BOOK REVIEWS CANADA ... NOTWITHSTANDING, by Roy Romanow, John Whyte, and Howard Leeson. Carswell/Methuen, Toronto, 1984, pp. xxi and 286. Canada ... Notwithstanding 1 describes the process of constitutional reform which began in 1976 and culminated in the patriation of the Con­ stitution in 1982.2 It is authored by three individuals who played impor­ tant roles in the process on behalf of the Province of Saskatchewan. Roy Romanow was the Attorney General of Saskatchewan from 1971 to 1982. As such he was responsible for intergovernmental affairs and com­ munications policy. During the period from 1976 to 1982, he twice served as the provincial co-chairman of the Federal/Provincial negotiations to patriate the Constitution. Although no longer a member of the Legislative Assembly, he continues to be actively involved in Saskat­ chewan politics. John Whyte has been a member of the Faculty of Law at Queen's University since 1969. However, from 1979 to 1982 he was Director of Constitutional Law in the Department of the Attorney General for the Province of Saskatchewan. He is a well-recognized legal scholar in the area of constitutional law. 3 Howard Leeson was Deputy Minister of Intergovernmental Affairs for the Province of Saskatchewan from 1979 to 1982. In 1982, he joined the Political Science Department at the University of Regina. This unique collaboration of a politician, a law professor, and a civil servant, it could be assumed, would produce an equally unique text covering all bases - the political considerations, the legal content, and the backroom manouevering - involved in the making of our Constitution.

  • Saskatchewan Elections: a History December 13Th, 1905 the Liberal Party Formed Saskatchewan’S First Elected Government
    SaSkatcheWan EleCtIonS: A History DecemBer 13th, 1905 The Liberal Party formed Saskatchewan’s first elected government. The Liberals were led by Walter Scott, an MP representing the area of Saskatchewan in Wilfred Laurier’s federal government. Frederick Haultain, the former premier of the Northwest Territories, led the Provincial Rights Party. Haultain was linked to the Conservative Party and had advocated for Alberta and Saskatchewan to be one province named Buffalo. He begrudged Laurier for creating two provinces, and fought Saskatchewan’s first election by opposing federal interference in provincial areas of jurisdiction. RESultS: Party Leader Candidates elected Popular vote Liberal Walter Scott 25 16 52.25% Provincial Rights Frederick Haultain 24 9 47.47% Independent 1 - 0.28% Total Seats 25 AuguST 14th, 1908 The number of MLAs expanded to 41, reflecting the rapidly growing population. The Liberals ran 40 candidates in 41 constituencies: William Turgeon ran in both Prince Albert City and Duck Lake. He won Duck Lake but lost Prince Albert. At the time it was common for candidates to run in multiple constituencies to help ensure their election. If the candidate won in two or more constituencies, they would resign from all but one. By-elections would then be held to find representatives for the vacated constituencies. This practice is no longer allowed. RESultS: Party Leader Candidates elected Popular vote Liberal Walter Scott 41 27 50.79% Provincial Rights Frederick Haultain 40 14 47.88% Independent-Liberal 1 - 0.67% Independent 2 - 0.66% Total Seats 41 July 11th, 1912 The Provincial Rights Party morphed into the Conservative Party of Saskatchewan, and continued to campaign for expanding provincial jurisdiction.
