Much has changed since 1918, including the rapid evolution of technology and the emergence of an increasingly global society and economy. Statistics Canada has changed as well, enhancing our processing and analytical capabilities, and expanding our programs. Today, the agency’s reach extends from coast to coast to coast and far beyond, as we work with colleagues around the world. We continue to innovate. Now more than ever, we are focused on the needs of our users. We are adopting leading edge statistical methods, and collaborating with clients, stakeholders and partners. We are striving to meet Canadians’ evolving information needs, and using new tools and channels to make our data more accessible and engaging. Statistics Canada’s centennial is an opportunity to honour the generations of talented people who have brought the agency to where it is today. It is also a STATISTICS chance to celebrate what has remained consistent over time: the quality of our data, the dedication of our employees and most importantly, the value that we CANADA’S add to Canadians’ understanding of our society, environment and the economy. CENTENNIAL IS As we mark this milestone, Statistics Canada remains committed to providing Canadians with high-quality statistical information that matters. Together, we are AN OPPORTUNITY laying the groundwork for another remarkable century. TO HONOUR Anil Arora GENERATIONS OF Chief Statistician of Canada TALENTED PEOPLE 2 Chapter 1: Setting the stage and introducing the early 1970s FORWARD It has been a true privilege to have been bestowed the honour of writing the next chapter of Statistics Canada’s history. Sitting day after day in a somewhat chilly room at Library and Archives Canada, I methodically delved into the richness of our past — holding in my hands documents ranging from letters from Prime Ministers to mere transactional memos. I felt truly humbled —here I was, assembling a portrait of the great women and men who bit by bit, made Statistics Canada the world renowned institution it is today. Believe me when I say, that we truly stand on the shoulders of giants. It was definitely a challenge to assemble that “bit-by-bit” perspective into a narrative. I see this as analogous to how it can often be difficult to appreciate the value of our day-to-day work. It is only when we pause and stand back from the gallery walls, and look with greater perspective at our collective history, that we truly perceive the bigger picture to which we all contribute. To that end, when enough time has passed to allow for SITTING DAY AFTER sufficient objectivity, it will again be time to document the next chapter of the agency’s history. So take time to reflect and to celebrate, and to document your successes and DAY IN A SOMEWHAT your failures - for both of these help shape who we are and who we will become. CHILLY ROOM AT The people I met during this project helped shaped its outcome. From the kind and helpful folks in the Statistics Canada library and at Library and Archives Canada, to the LIBRARY AND external review board who generously donated their time to read my disjointed narratives and to patiently steer me in the right direction, to Dr. Wilk’s French teacher who I met while on holiday and who was moved to tears by his memories, to all the friendly folks in ARCHIVES CANADA, Communications and Dissemination Branch who always had a smile for this fish-out-of-water and who took this project to the finish line, thank you. I METHODICALLY I hope that I have done justice to the formidable task of illuminating our path from the DELVED INTO THE early 1970s through to the end of Dr. Fellegi’s tenure.

For Statistics Canada, such works are also opportunities to commemorate the agency’s contributions to Canada and its people. They also serve as a reminder that an institution such as Statistics Canada did not instantly materialize—it was shaped over many years by many influences, and it continues to evolve each and every day. Two relatively recent significant works have been authored on the history of Statistics Canada, the first of which was published in 1993: 75 Years and counting: A history of Statistics Canada. This publication covered the early beginnings and the first 75 years of the agency. Six years later, a more academically-oriented work was published: The Dominion Bureau of Statistics: A History of Canada’s Central Statistical Office and Its Antecedents 1841-1972. The latter, written by retired Assistant Chief Statistician David Worton, intertwined the agency’s story within the larger economic, political and social context of the times. True to common practice among historians, the story ends in the far enough past to allow for sufficient objectivity. Two decades later, in 2018, Statistics Canada celebrates its 100th birthday and, in honour of the occasion, has published this new work. Although not as academically oriented, it takes flight from where Mr. Worton left off and, after a brief synopsis of the early years, tells the story of the next 36 years, until 2008. 6 Chapter 1: Setting the stage and introducing the early 1970s THE ADVENT OF STATISTICS IN CANADA Canada celebrated the 150th anniversary of its The earliest counts are sourced from letters from confederation in 2017.

  • The Limits to Influence: the Club of Rome and Canada
    THE LIMITS TO INFLUENCE: THE CLUB OF ROME AND CANADA, 1968 TO 1988 by JASON LEMOINE CHURCHILL A thesis presented to the University of Waterloo in fulfilment of the thesis requirement for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in History Waterloo, Ontario, Canada, 2006 © Jason Lemoine Churchill, 2006 Declaration AUTHOR'S DECLARATION FOR ELECTRONIC SUBMISSION OF A THESIS I hereby declare that I am the sole author of this thesis. This is a true copy of the thesis, including any required final revisions, as accepted by my examiners. I understand that my thesis may be made electronically available to the public. ii Abstract This dissertation is about influence which is defined as the ability to move ideas forward within, and in some cases across, organizations. More specifically it is about an extraordinary organization called the Club of Rome (COR), who became advocates of the idea of greater use of systems analysis in the development of policy. The systems approach to policy required rational, holistic and long-range thinking. It was an approach that attracted the attention of Canadian Prime Minister Pierre Trudeau. Commonality of interests and concerns united the disparate members of the COR and allowed that organization to develop an influential presence within Canada during Trudeau’s time in office from 1968 to 1984. The story of the COR in Canada is extended beyond the end of the Trudeau era to explain how the key elements that had allowed the organization and its Canadian Association (CACOR) to develop an influential presence quickly dissipated in the post- 1984 era. The key reasons for decline were time and circumstance as the COR/CACOR membership aged, contacts were lost, and there was a political paradigm shift that was antithetical to COR/CACOR ideas.

THE SUPREME COURT OF CANADA’S ROLE IN CONSTITUTIONAL POLITICS Several times in Canada’s history the turbulent waters of constitu- tional politics have roared up to the Supreme Court, when for a moment the political gladiators in a constitutional struggle put down their armour, don legal robes and submit their claims to the country’s highest court. September 1981 was surely such a moment. Indeed, it is difficult to find any other constitutional democracy whose highest court has been called upon to render such a crucial decision in the midst of a mega constitutional struggle over the future of the country.

  • “Everybody Called Her Frank” : The
    JOURNAL OF NEW BRUNSWICK STUDIES Issue 2 (2011) “Everybody Called Her Frank”1: The Odyssey of an Early Woman Lawyer in New Brunswick Barry Cahill Abstract In February 1934 Frances Fish was called to the bar of New Brunswick and spent the next forty years practising law in her home town of Newcastle (now City of Miramichi) NB. In 1918 she had been both the first woman to graduate LLB from Dalhousie University and the first woman to be called to the bar of Nova Scotia. Though she initially intended to remain in Halifax, she instead left Nova Scotia almost immediately, abandoning the practice of law altogether. She spent the next fifteen years working as a paralegal in Ottawa and Montreal before returning to New Brunswick and resuming the practice of law. This article is a study of Fish’s career in New Brunswick, framed within the experience of the first women lawyers in Canada, of whom she was the seventh.2 Résumé En février 1934, Frances Fish a été reçue au Barreau du Nouveau-Brunswick. Pendant les quarante années qui ont suivi, elle a pratiqué le droit dans sa ville natale, Newcastle (qui fait maintenant partie de la ville de Miramichi), au Nouveau-Brunswick. En 1918, elle a été la première femme à obtenir un baccalauréat en droit de la Dalhousie University et la première femme reçue au Barreau de la Nouvelle-Écosse. Bien qu’elle avait, au début, l'intention de rester à Halifax, elle a quitté la Nouvelle- Écosse presque immédiatement après ses études, abandonnant complètement la pratique du droit.
