Lesson Plan with Activities: Political
LESSON PLAN POLITICAL PARTIES Recommended for Grade 10 Duration: Approximately 60 minutes BACKGROUND INFORMATION Parliamentary Roles: www.ola.org/en/visit-learn/about-ontarios-parliament/ parliamentary-roles LEARNING GOALS This lesson plan is designed to engage students in the political process through participatory activities and a discussion about the various political parties. Students will learn the differences between the major parties of Ontario and how they connect with voters, and gain an understanding of the important elements of partisan politics. INTRODUCTORY DISCUSSION (10 minutes) Canada is a constitutional monarchy and a parliamentary democracy, founded on the rule of law and respect for rights and freedoms. Ask students which country our system of government is based on. Canada’s parliamentary system stems from the British, or “Westminster,” tradition. Since Canada is a federal state, responsibility for lawmaking is shared among one federal, ten provincial and three territorial governments. Canada shares the same parliamentary system and similar roles as other parliaments in the Commonwealth – countries with historic links to Britain. In our parliament, the Chamber is where our laws are debated and created. There are some important figures who help with this process. Some are partisan and some are non-partisan. What does it mean to be partisan/non-partisan? Who would be voicing their opinions in the Chamber? A helpful analogy is to imagine the Chamber as a game of hockey, where the political parties are the teams playing and the non-partisan roles as the people who make sure the game can happen (ex. referees, announcers, score keepers, etc.) LEGISLATIVE ASSEMBLY OF ONTARIO POLITICAL PARTIES 01 EXPLANATION (5 minutes) Political Parties: • A political party is a group of people who share the same political beliefs.

Selecting Women to Lead Provincial Parties in Government By Melanee Thomas Associate Professor Department of Political Science University of Calgary 2500 University Drive NW Calgary, AB T2N 1N4 Abstract: The majority of Canada’s women premiers were selected to that office while their parties held government. This is uncommon, both in the comparative literature and amongst premiers who are men. What explains this gendered selection pattern to Canada’s provincial premiers’ offices? This paper explores the most common explanation found in the comparative literature for women’s emergence as leaders of electorally competitive parties and as chief political executives: women are more likely to be selected when that party is in crisis or decline. Using the population of women provincial premiers in Canada as case studies, evidence suggests 3 of 8 women premiers were selected to lead parties in government that were in crisis or decline; a fourth was selected to lead a small, left-leaning party as predicted by the literature.

Conservatives share of vote is slightly higher than the Liberals, making major gains in key areas for the party • Bloc Quebecois (BQ) is a winner in this election, moving up to official party status which will give the party added resources as well as significance in the House of Commons • The NDP managed to win enough seats to potentially play an important role in the House of Commons, but the party took a big hit in Quebec — where they were only able to hold one of the Layton era “Orange Wave” seats • Maxime Bernier, who started the People’s Party of Canada after narrowly losing the Conservative leadership contest in 2017, lost the seat he has held onto since 2006 • The former Treasury Board president Dr. Jane Philpott, who ran as an independent following her departure from the liberal caucus, lost her seat in Markham Stouffville to former Liberal MPP and Ontario Minister of Health, Dr. Helena Jaczek.

Readers Respond to Pickering Mayor's Position
Readers’ responses in the News Advertiser to the article “Recouping Canada’s $150-million investment,” by Pickering Mayor Dave Ryan, August 23, 2017 Pickering mayor seems to be unaware of the number of jobs in agriculture Opinion Aug 25, 2017, Pickering News Advertiser Mayor Dave Ryan’s column, where he attempts to promote a business-as-usual case for an airport on the Pickering Lands instead of the very best use of the lands for agriculture, simply doesn’t reflect the reality of our changing world. Contrary to the number of jobs he claims agriculture would provide, he’s obviously unaware that more than 640,000 people in the province are employed in agri-food industries, and in 2013, agri-food systems provided one in eight jobs in Canada, employing more than 2.2 million people. Forecasts from the Greater Toronto Airport Authority about capacity at Pearson have proven consistently wrong in the past and if the GTAA had auspices over Hamilton-Cambridge where existing infrastructure would easily support an airport, it would never be making a case for an airport in Pickering. These lands represent 95 per cent of Canada’s remaining five per cent triple-A farmland — the very best there is — and this precious and irreplaceable infrastructure comes already included. Maybe Mayor Ryan should concentrate on producing the 25,000 jobs that we were promised Seaton would supply for Pickering, instead of reducing the overwhelming future opportunities that the agri-food industry could supply. Angie Jones. Pickering Online Comment re this letter: By Mark, Aug 26 2017 9:15AM The Mayors comments are spot on.
