  • A Tribute to the Honourable R. Gordon Robertson, P.C., C.C., LL.D., F.R.S.C., D.C.L
    A Tribute to The Honourable R. Gordon Robertson, P.C., C.C., LL.D., F.R.S.C., D.C.L. By Thomas d’Aquino MacKay United Church Ottawa January 21, 2013 Reverend Doctor Montgomery; members of the Robertson family; Joan - Gordon’s dear companion; Your Excellency; Madam Chief Justice; friends, I am honoured – and humbled – to stand before you today, at Gordon’s request, to pay tribute to him and to celebrate with you his remarkable life. He wished this occasion to be one, not of sadness, but of celebration of a long life, well lived, a life marked by devotion to family and to country. Gordon Robertson – a good, fair, principled, and ever so courteous man - was a modest person. But we here today know that he was a giant. Indeed, he has been described as his generation’s most distinguished public servant – and what a generation that was! Gordon was proud of his Saskatchewan roots. Born in 1917 in Davidson – a town of 300 “on the baldest prairie”, in Gordon’s words, he thrived under the affection of his Norwegian-American mother and grandparents. He met his father – of Scottish ancestry - for the first time at the age of two, when he returned home after convalescing from serious wounds suffered at the epic Canadian victory at Vimy Ridge. He was, by Gordon’s account, a stern disciplinarian who demanded much of his son in his studies, in pursuit of manly sports, and in his comportment. Gordon did not disappoint. He worked his way through drought- and depression-torn Saskatchewan, attended Regina College and the University of Saskatchewan, and in 1938 was on his way to Oxford University, a fresh young Rhodes Scholar.

  • Reconciling Cabinet Secrecy with the Rule of Law
    RECONCILING CABINET SECRECY WITH THE RULE OF LAW By Yan Campagnolo A thesis submitted in conformity with the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Juridical Science Faculty of Law University of Toronto © Copyright by Yan Campagnolo, 2018 P a g e | ii Reconciling Cabinet Secrecy with the Rule of Law Doctor of Juridical Science, 2018 Yan Campagnolo Faculty of Law University of Toronto ABSTRACT This dissertation explores the tension between government openness and secrecy. It focuses on Cabinet secrecy, that is, the doctrine protecting the confidentiality of the collective decision-making process at the top of the executive branch in Westminster jurisdictions. I argue that Cabinet secrecy is crucial to the proper functioning of the system of responsible government as it fosters the candour of ministerial discussions, protects the efficiency of the decision-making process, and enables Ministers to remain united in public notwithstanding any disagreement they may have in private. Yet, excessive secrecy can hamper government accountability by depriving citizens, parliamentarians and judges of the information needed to hold public officials responsible for their decisions and actions. An important question is who should have the final authority over the disclosure of Cabinet secrets when a dispute arises, the Government or the Courts? Under the common law, Courts in the United Kingdom, Australia, New Zealand and Canada (at the provincial level) asserted the authority to review and overrule Cabinet immunity claims to prevent abuses of power. In Canada, at the federal level, by the enactment of sections 39 of the Canada Evidence Act and 69 of the Access to Information Act , Parliament deprived the Courts of the power to inspect and order the disclosure of Cabinet secrets.

  • Diefenbaker's Legacy: New Ways of Thinking About Nuclear Weapons
    Published as: Erika Simpson, “New Ways of Thinking about Nuclear Weapons and Canada’s Defence Policy,” Diefenbaker’s Legacy, edited by D. C. Story and R. Bruce Shepard, (Regina: Canadian Plains Research Centre, 1998), pp. 27-41 “Diefenbaker’s Legacy: New Ways of Thinking about Nuclear Weapons and Canada’s Defence Policy” Erika Simpson Abstract Prime Minister John Diefenbaker’s initial decision to acquire nuclear weapons systems for the Canadian Forces was followed by much debate within Cabinet. During the Cuban Missile crisis, Cabinet Ministers continued to argue about whether Canada should fulfill its defence commitments. Finally the Prime Minister and his Minister of External Affairs Howard Green publicly opposed the nuclear commitments the government had originally undertaken. This paper asserts that the underlying belief systems of influential decision-makers significantly influenced defence decision-making leading to the Diefenbaker government’s contrasting record of nuclear commitments. The research is based largely on documents arising out of the recently-declassified records of Cabinet; the newly-opened personal papers of the Prime Minister; and the documents available from the Department of National Defence’s Directorate of History (e.g. the recently-opened Raymont series). The paper shows that, contrary to conventional wisdom, senior officials within the Diefenbaker government, including the Prime Minister after 1962, were not altogether confused by the strategic environment nor naive about their defence responsibilities and NATO obligations. Some deliberately attempted to buy time and seek options to delay the acquisition of nuclear weapons. Whereas ‘Defenders’ within the government worked to fulfill the nuclear commitments, ‘Critics’ pursued alternatives which they deemed to be in the best interests of war prevention.

It does so by evaluating Canadian policy towards the development and use of Commonwealth institutions for cooperation. The thesis begins by sketching the development of Canadian policy towards the Commonwealth between 1944 and 1955. It argues that Canadian behaviour during this period set a pattern, which as it evolved in the face of changing conditions, was generally pursued through the period 1956 to 1965.

  • Le Secret Ministériel : Théorie Et Pratique VII VIII Le Secret Ministériel : Théorie Et Pratique
    Le secret ministériel Théorie et pratique DIKÈ Collection dirigée par Josiane Boulad-Ayoub et Bjarne Melkevik « Le soleil ne transgressera pas son orbe (métra). Ou alors les Érinyes, aides de la justice, le découvriront. » (Héraclite, Aphorisme 94) Les Érinyes, déesses de la vengeance, dont Héraclite fait les auxiliaires de la justice, se métamorphosent à la fin de l’Orestie d’Eschyle en bien- veillantes Euménides. Fille de Thémis dans la mythologie, DIKÈ, alliée cependant aux nouvelles divinités Athéna et Apollon, s’humanise dans la tragédie, se laïcise, se politise en s’associant aux progrès de la démocratie, du débat juridique et politique, du développement des lois. DIKÈ n’était pas, à Athènes, la mimésis d’une essence de la justice, elle était à la fois l’idée abstraite du droit et, sous de multiples formes, l’action judiciaire. La collection « DIKÈ », comme la Pnyx et l’Agora athéniennes, offre un espace public, un lieu de rencontre pour penseurs venus d’horizons et de disciplines différents, du droit, de la philosophie du droit, de la philosophie politique, de la sociologie, prêts à débattre des questions juridiques urgentes et disposés à une critique aussi polymorphe et diverse que les structures complexes du droit contemporain qu’ils tenteront de mettre à jour. Penseurs persuadés que DIKÈ, élevée à la dignité autonome du concept, est toujours enchaînée au juste et à l’injuste et que, privée de déterminations concrètes, la justice n’est qu’une forme vide. Persuadés aussi que l’ambivalence des structures juridiques invite à procéder à une enquête sur la généalogie des formes historiques du droit.
