Medicare and Beyond: a 21St Century Vision, Saskatoon
Medicare and Beyond A 21st Century Vision Speaking notes for The Hon. Roy J. Romanow, P.C., O.C., S.O.M., Q.C. Chair, Canadian Index of Wellbeing Advisory Board Senior Fellow, Political Studies, University of Saskatchewan; Atkinson Economic Justice Fellow; Commissioner on the Future of Health Care in Canada; Former Premier of Saskatchewan To Canadian Doctors of Medicare 25th Anniversary Celebration of the Canada Health Act Saskatoon, Saskatchewan, Canada August 16, 2009 [Document from http://ciw.ca] 1. Introduction Good evening everyone. It’s wonderful to join you on this historic evening celebrating the 25th Anniversary of the Canada Health Act. Let me start by thanking Canadian Doctors for Medicare for your kind invitation to speak. Thank you Ryan (Meili) for your warm introduction. I’ve come to accept that the older I get the more my introductions sound like eulogies, but let me assure you I have miles to go before I sleep. I can’t think of a better place to mark this anniversary. Many of you know that I’m a Saskatoon native, born and bred, and I take pride in the fact that the Broadway Theatre is community-owned and operated. Those of you who are from other parts of the country may not know that this theatre was built in 1945, the very same year that the Province of Saskatchewan issued government health-care cards to all pensioners, all women on mother's allowance, and all disabled people in Saskatchewan, entitling them to full medicare coverage including drugs. I’m very pleased to be here, and I’m even more pleased to serve as Danielle Martin’s warm-up act. -

AB Today – Daily Report February 7, 2019
AB Today – Daily Report February 7, 2019 Quotation of the day “To the ignorant fool who sent this letter, you'd best look at my longstanding work in pluralistic outreach, including to Muslims.” UCP Leader Jason Kenney responds to an Islamophobic, racist letter delivered to an Edmonton mosque that pledged support for Kenney’s premier bid. Today in AB On the schedule The legislature will reconvene on March 18 for the government’s final throne speech before the spring election. Islamophobic, racist letter sent to Edmonton mosque uses UCP logo; party denounces the message The Alberta Muslim Public Affairs Council is calling for a stronger response from the United Conservative Party after an Islamophobic, racist letter was delivered to an Edmonton mosque, the second hate incident targeting a mosque in the city within weeks. AMPAC released an image of the letter, which asks the mosque, Markaz Ul Islam, to close its doors because it and its members “don’t belong here in Alberta.” After a brief white supremacist tyrade, the anonymous author writes, “Our Premier to be Jason Kenney is going to take Alberta back. So adapt if you want to stay.” The letter concludes with an image of the UCP logo and an upside down Canadian flag with the words “The Clann” overlayed. People affiliated with The Clann, an anti-Islam group, and the Wolves of Odin reportedly harassed worshippers outside another Edmonton mosque last month ahead of the second anniversary of the mosque shooting in Quebec City. The Edmonton police are investigating. AMPAC greyed out at least one sentence in the letter, which the organization says contained “more inflammatory and hateful language” it did not feel was appropriate for public consumption. -

evue canadienne V olume 41, No 1 Arbre généalogique politique: Les liens familiaux au sein du Parlement du Canada 2 CANADIAN PARLIAMENTARY REVIEW/SPRING 2017 La masse actuelle de la Chambre d’assemblée de la Nouvelle Écosse est en usage depuis qu’elle a été offerte à l’Assemblée le 5 mars 1930 par le juge en chef Robert Edward Harris, quatorzième juge en chef de la Nouvelle Écosse, et sa femme. Faite de vermeil, elle mesure 4 pieds de hauteur et pèse environ 18 livres. Ses quatre faces représentent respectivement la couronne royale, les armoiries de la Nouvelle Écosse, le grand sceau actuel de la province (celui conféré avant la Confédération) et la silhouette d’un Président vêtu de ses habits officiels. Sont également gravés sur la masse la fleur de mai, emblème floral de la Nouvelle Écosse, et le chardon écossais. La masse a été fabriquée en Angleterre par Elkington and Company, Limited. M. et Mme Harris souhaitaient que leur don de la masse reste anonyme. Le premier ministre de l’époque a respecté leur désir, mais a demandé que leur legs puisse être reconnu ultérieurement au moyen d’une inscription gravée sur la masse. Par conséquent, dans son testament, le juge en chef a chargé ses exécuteurs de faire graver l’inscription suivante sur la masse et d’assumer les coûts des travaux à même sa succession : « Cette masse fut présentée à la Chambre d’assemblée de la province de la Nouvelle Écosse par l’honorable Robert E. Harris, juge en chef de la Nouvelle Écosse, et par Mme Harris, en mars 1930. -
