April 26, 1988 DE-6 (2/88) i i ABSTRACT This study proposes a strategy which will assist governments, the sponsors of hallmark events, and community groups to identify and plan for the negative housing impacts of such events. Hallmark events are major one-time or recurring : events of limited duration, developed primarily to enhance the awareness, appeal and profitability of a tourist destination in the short and/or long term. World's Fairs and Olympic Games are two examples of hallmark events. The 1986 World's Fair (Expo 86) in Vancouver provided an opportunity to document the impacts of this hallmark event on the residents of a community which borders the fair site and on the planning practices of the local government.

  • So You Think Government Is Boring
    Lesson Plan Title So You Think Government is Boring... Audience Primarily intended for Social Studies 11, but can be modified for all grade levels. Overview We all love to listen to a good story. Government is often viewed as being "boring", but teachers can utilize the art of storytelling to act as a medium through which they can capture their students’ imaginations. Through narratives, concepts are placed within a more meaningful context, historical figures come to life, and otherwise seemingly mundane details can become memorable. Objectives • To engage students in the processes of government • To foster an appreciation for the history and traditions of government • To help students realize the impact one individual can make on government and society. So You Think Government is Boring... Page 1 Activities and Methods • Attached handouts. Teacher needs to pre-read the story he/she plans to use and pair it with the topic that best corresponds. • Teacher will read selected story at the beginning and choose from the topical pairing suggestions: Appendix A – Gracie's Finger (Electoral boundaries and size of electoral districts) Appendix B – The First “Families First” (1917) (Suffrage, minimum wage laws, first acting female Speaker of the Legislative Assembly, first female British Empire Cabinet Minister, Independent MLA, Cabinet Solidarity) Appendix C – The Agony & the Architect (History of the Parliament Buildings, impact of one individual on government and society.) Appendix D – Off With His Head! (Role of the Speaker, History of Parliament, Parliamentary traditions) Appendix E – Living Legend (Role of the Clerk of the Legislative Assembly, individual commitment to parliamentary democracy, civic engagement) Appendix F – More Than Meets the Eye (Parliamentary democracy, separating politics from government) Appendix G – En Garde! (Parliamentary tradition) Duration of Activity • Length will vary depending on how teacher chooses to incorporate individual stories into lesson plan.

  • The Non-Partisan Approach to BC Politics: the Search for a Unity Party
    The Non-partisan Approach to B.C. Politics: The Search for a Unity Party — 1972-1975 G. L. KRISTIANSON Appeals to politicians to abandon party lines and unite in the face of some obvious threat are a common political phenomenon. Both the economic depression of the 1930s and the Second World War prompted demands for the formation of "national" governments in British Columbia and else­ where. Fear of a socialist election victory has been another stimulant to non-partisanship in this province. Elements of this can be found as early as 1906. It has been a regular and persistent feature for British Columbia politics since 1945. Non-partisanship has a venerable history in British Columbia. Until the turn of the century conventional party lines did not exist at the provincial level. Most candidates stood as independent individuals. The successful ones manufactured ministerial coalitions after election. The system eventu­ ally proved unstable and was abandoned in 1903 when both national parties ran candidates in the general election of that year. The change brought new stability to British Columbia politics but also prompted periodic denunciation of the evils of partisanship. In 1906, during the campaign leading up to the 1907 election, the Liberals and Conservatives in one Vancouver constituency decided to run a single candidate against the Socialist incumbent. This action caused the Western Clarion, a Vancouver Socialist newspaper, to predict "the com­ plete abandonment of so-called party lines in every part of the province where the labour vote threatens to follow the lead in Ladysmith and Na- naimo."1 The paper lamented that this result would make more difficult "the easy victory of Socialist candidates in three-cornered contests." During the 1920s anti-socialism was not a conspicuous issue although appeals to traditional party supporters to abandon party lines occupied a prominent place in the rhetoric of the Provincial Party.
