RECOMMENDATION / ACTION: [All Directors – Corporate Weighted] That the Regional District purchase an annual subscription (10 issues) of the Composite Public Affairs newsletter for an amount of $87 including GST. BACKGROUND/RATIONALE: I feel the newsletter is worthwhile for the Board’s reference. ATTACHMENTS: January 4, 2019 issue Dept. Head: CAO: Page 1 of 1 January 31, 2019 R-2 Composite Public Affairs Inc. January 4, 2019 Karen Goodings Peace River Regional District Box 810 Dawson Creek, BC V1G 4H8 Dear Karen, It is my pleasure to provide you with a complimentary issue of our new political newsletter, The Composite Advisor. British Columbia today is in the midst of an exciting political drama — one that may last for the next many months, or (as I believe) the next several years. At present, a New Democratic Party government led by Premier John Horgan and supported by Andrew Weaver's Green Party, holds a narrow advantage in the Legislative Assembly. And after 16 years in power, the long-governing BC Liberals now sit on the opposition benches with a relatively-new leader in Andrew Wilkinson. B.C.'s next general-election is scheduled for October 2021, almost three years from now, but as the old saying goes: 'The only thing certain, is uncertainty." (The best political quote in this regard may have been by British Prime Minister Harold MacMillan who, asked by a reporter what might transpire to change his government's course of action, replied: "Events, dear boy, events." New research suggests that MacMillan never said it — but it's still a great quote!) Composite Public Affairs Inc.

  • The Tailings of Canadian Politics: the North-South Political Divide
    The Tailings of Canadian Politics: The North-South Political Divide TRACY SUMMERVILLE AND GREG POELZER The Northern Review #25/26 (Summer 2005): 106–122. Regionalism continues to be a central concern of scholars of Canadian politics. Most scholars focus on Western alienation, Quebec separatism, or Atlantic economic disparities. Yet little attention has been given to the North-South political cleavages within provinces.1 The concerns of resi- dents over land claims in northern British Columbia and the transporta- tion of garbage to Kirk land Lake from Toronto, to cite but two examples, suggest the existence of a distinctly northern provincial identity. This paper argues that there is clear evidence that residents across Canada’s provincial Norths see them sel ves as distinct from the larger provincial political communities of which they are a part. Moreover, we suggest the residents of the provincial Norths have com monalities in their political perceptions and responses to important policy issues. Our paper begins with a discussion of the relationship among culture, institutions, and internal colonialism as factors in the development of re- gional political identity and a brief outline of the issues of northern iden- tity in scho larship on the North. We then illustrate through three cases— gun con trol and the related bear hunting moratoriums, health care, and economic devel opment—that policies designed in the provincial South are framed with in a very diff erent set of beliefs, values, and attitudes than in the provincial North. Clearly, the outcomes of these policy decisions have very diff erent impacts in the provincial Norths because of these disparate beliefs and values.
