  • The Royal Commission on Espionage 1946-1948 a Case Study in the Mobilization of the Canadian Civil Liberties Movement
    The Royal Commission on Espionage 1946-1948 A Case Study in the Mobilization of the Canadian Civil Liberties Movement by Dominique Thomas Clement BA Hons Queen's University A Thesis Submitted in Partial Fulfilment of the Requirements for the Degree of MASTER OF ARTS in the Faculty of Graduate Studies (Department of History) We accept this thesis as conforming to the required standard THE UNIVERSITY OF BRITISH COLUMBIA April 2000 © Dominique Thomas Clement AUTHORIZATION FORM In presenting this thesis in partial fulfilment of the requirements for an advanced degree at the University of British Columbia, I agree that the Library shall make it freely available for reference and study. I further agree that permission for extensive copying of this thesis for scholarly purposes may be granted by the head of my department or by his or her representatives. It is understood that copying or publication of this thesis for financial gain shall not be allowed without my written permission. 11 ABSTRACT There exists, at this time, surprisingly little historiography on how civil liberties were shaped and developed in practice throughout Canadian history. An examination of the 1946 Royal Commission on Espionage offers several insights into the nature of the immediate post-World War Two civil liberties movement. The commission was formed in response to the defection of a Russian cipher clerk, Igor Gouzenko, in late 1945. The commission investigated the existence of a Russian-led spy ring that had recruited several Canadian civil servants into disclosing secret information. The commission is unique in Canadian history; dominantly due to the fact that it was empowered under the War Measures Act which granted it enormous powers.

This permit applies to the ± 1043 acres of land identified in Book 32 Pages 341-348, Book 62 Pages 545-548, Book 35 Pages 475-477 Book 38 Pages 363-366, Book 41 Pages 114-116, and Book 58 Pages 386-388 of the land records of the Town of Coventry, Vermont, as the subject of a deed to New England Waste Services of Vermont, Inc. This permit specifically authorizes the Permittee to construct and operate Phase VI, to allow expansion and continued operation of the existing double-lined Landfill Facility, including phased development of an additional ± 51.2 acres of lined landfill capacity, expanded leachate management and gas control infrastructure, stormwater treatment ponds, greenhouses, and three contiguous soil stockpiles located south of Phase VI. This permit authorizes continued operation of the Facility, including Phase VI, for a period of time ending on June 30, 2028. The project is located on Airport Road in the Town of Coventry, Vermont. Jurisdiction attaches because the Project constitutes a material change to a permitted development, and thus requires a permit amendment pursuant to Act 250 Rule 34. 1.

MULVALE SID FRANKEL Faculty of Social Work University of Manitoba Canada has had recurring debates about guaranteed or basic income over several decades. This article outlines reasons for implementing basic income in the Canadian context—reduc- ing poverty and inequality, addressing precarious employ- ment, and building an ecologically sustainable economy. Recently there has been a strong renewal of interest in basic income in Canada. Expressions of interest have come from the Liberal federal government elected in 2015, from provincial governments, from political parties not in power, and from mu- nicipal governments. Support for basic income also is found in a growing range of prominent individuals and organizations. While basic income advocates are encouraged by recent develop- ments, several large and complex questions remain on how this ap- proach can be implemented in Canada.

Its focus is on the changes to immigration policy implemented between 1945 and 1963 by the governments of Mackenzie King, Louis St. Laurent, and John Diefenbaker, and on the events, ideas, and influences that drove those changes. The story is told through extensive primary-source research from the archival records of the federal Immigration Branch, the departments of Citizenship and Immigration, Labour, Agriculture, External Affairs, and the Privy Council Office.
