    'Turncoats, Opportunists, and Political Whores': Floor Crossers in Ontario

    “‘Turncoats, Opportunists, and Political Whores’: Floor Crossers in Ontario Political History” By Patrick DeRochie 2011-12 Intern Ontario Legislature Internship Programme (OLIP) 1303A Whitney Block Queen’s Park Toronto, Ontario M7A 1A2 Phone: 416-325-0040 [email protected] www.olipinterns.ca www.facebook.com/olipinterns www.twitter.com/olipinterns Paper presented at the 2012 Annual meeting of the Canadian Political Science Association Edmonton, Alberta Friday, June 15th, 2012. Draft: DO NOT CITE 2 Acknowledgements I would like to thank the following people for their support, advice and openness in helping me complete this research paper: Gilles Bisson Sean Conway Steve Gilchrist Henry Jacek Sylvia Jones Rosario Marchese Lynn Morrison Graham Murray David Ramsay Greg Sorbara Lise St-Denis David Warner Graham White 3 INTRODUCTION When the October 2011 Ontario general election saw Premier Dalton McGuinty’s Liberals win a “major minority”, there was speculation at Queen’s Park that a Member of Provincial Parliament (MPP) from the Progressive Conservative (PC) Party or New Democratic Party (NDP) would be induced to cross the floor. The Liberals had captured fifty-three of 107 seats; the PCs and NDP, thirty-seven and seventeen, respectively. A Member of one of the opposition parties defecting to join the Liberals would have definitively changed the balance of power in the Legislature. Even with the Speaker coming from the Liberals’ ranks, a floor crossing would give the Liberals a de facto majority and sufficient seats to drive forward their legislative agenda without having to rely on at least one of the opposition parties. A January article in the Toronto Star revealed that the Liberals had quietly made overtures to at least four PC and NDP MPPs since the October election, 1 meaning that a floor crossing was a very real possibility.

  • Reforming Ottawa's Municipal Election Finances

    Reforming Ottawa’s municipal election finances A report to the City of Ottawa’s Corporate Services & Economic Development Committee And City Council By Councillor Alex Cullen (Bay Ward) City of Ottawa, 110 Laurier Ave. W., Ottawa K1P 1J1 (613) 580-2477; fax (613) 580-2517; e-mail: [email protected] April 28, 2005 Reforming Ottawa’s municipal election finances In the 2003 municipal election for the City of Ottawa’s 22 council seats (Mayor plus 21 ward councillors) a remarkable thing happened: every incumbent running for re-election succeeded. The incumbent mayor and 15 incumbent ward councillors running were all re-elected, despite competition from 60 other candidates, despite endorsements for certain challengers from the two major newspapers and sundry interest groups. The only new councillors elected were from 6 “open” seats where no incumbent was a contestant. A review of the 2003 municipal election in Ottawa indicates that there is an uneven playing field in municipal election campaigns, and the clear need for campaign financing reform. Analysis of the 2003 Municipal Election in Ottawa An analysis of the 2003 municipal election in Ottawa (see Analysis of 2003 Municipal Election, City of Ottawa1) shows that nearly $1 million was raised and spent in the 2003 municipal elections in Ottawa. It also reveals that the ability to raise and spend money to wage a campaign was a significant determinant in the success of candidates running for election. Money is important to promote the campaign of a candidate and his or her ideas. It pays for signs, advertisements and brochures to let the electorate know who is running for what and why.
  • Women's Eyes on the City Budget 2007

    Women's Eyes on the City Budget 2007

    Women’s Eyes on the City Budget 2007 The decisions City Council makes in the coming weeks will have a great impact on the lives of our families, organizations and communities. We have reviewed City Council’s decisions on the Budget Directions that are now being used by city staff to draft the budget. We ask City Council and residents in Ottawa to consider the following concerns when reviewing the draft budget to be released on February 7 th . Each of us have an important role to play to let our City Councillors know what we believe is most important to ensure a healthy and inclusive city. Visit www.ottawa.ca to know how. A Gender Equality Lens on the Budget To consider how the full diversity of women and men would be differently affected by a budget, we are looking at it with a “gender equality lens”. This means asking the following questions: o How will women and men; girls and boys be affected differently? o What impact will it have on specific groups of women who may be at greater risk of exclusion (Aboriginal, francophone, visible minority, immigrant, seniors, youth, low-income, persons with disabilities)? o Does it support programs and services that promote an inclusive city and quality of life for all? o Will the reduction or elimination of a service result in women carrying an extra load in unpaid work, as primary caregivers and community volunteers? On how the City raises funds - Revenues: o Change how cities are funded: The City of Ottawa does not have a spending problem; it has a revenue problem.
