  • AB Today – Daily Report January 22, 2019
    AB Today – Daily Report January 22, 2019 Quotation of the day “What is clear from research by my team and other leading institutes is that oil sands expansion is inconsistent with preventing warming greater than two degrees celsius. If the NEB is considering climate change, no further expansion of delivery infrastructure from the oil sands should be approved.” Mark Jaccard, climate-energy economics professor at Simon Fraser University, calls on the ​ ​ ​ National Energy Board to review climate impacts during its reconsideration of the Trans Mountain pipeline expansion. Today in AB On the schedule The Legislature will reconvene on March 18 for the government’s final throne speech before the spring election. Minister, government whip announce they will not seek re-election Two high-profile NDP MLAs announced Monday they will not be seeking re-election. Infrastructure Minister Sandra Jansen, the infamous PC floor-crosser representing ​ ​ Calgary—North West, and Government Whip Estefania Cortes-Vargas, the first-term MLA ​ ​ ​ ​ from Strathcona—Sherwood Park, won’t be running for the NDP when the writ drops. In her exit statement, Jansen praised Premier Rachel Notley’s leadership, but said “after many ​ ​ years in public life” leaving politics is “the right decision for me and my family.” “Let me say, this is not an easy decision,” Jansen said. “I am proud of what I have been able to accomplish on behalf of my constituents, particularly over these last two years.” On Monday, her Twitter account was deleted. After defecting from the PCs to the NDP in 2016, Jansen temporarily brought on extra security from the Executive Protection Unit after receiving death threats.

  • William James Schultz
    Unlocking Radicalization: Correctional Officers, Risk Perception, and Ideological Extremism in Albertan Prisons by William James Schultz A thesis submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts Department of Sociology University of Alberta © William James Schultz, 2017 ii Abstract A wide range of sources have framed radicalization into violent extremism as a serious risk to prisons in Europe and North America. Some view prisons as a primary recruiting ground for groups like ISIS. I investigated whether this was accurate in Alberta by conducting semi- structured interviews with 43 correctional officers in three Alberta prisons. I asked three questions: 1. Do correctional officers observe what they perceive as radicalization among their inmate populations? 2. How do correctional officers perceive and govern the risks associated with ‘radical’ inmates? 3. What influence does an insider/outsider role play in shaping prison research? I found nothing to suggest active radical activity within my research sites, suggesting prison radicalization is largely an irrelevant threat in the Albertan Context. However, I also discovered that officers have (in many cases) unconsciously redefined the meaning of “radicalization,” and have applied the label onto inmates who are resistant to officer control, rather than members of ideologically violent radical groups. I explore this at length using Ulrich Beck’s Risk Society hypothesis. Finally, I discovered my status as a former correctional officer played a strong role in casting me as an “Insider/Outsider” researcher, something which deeply shaped my research experience and impacted the data I was able to gather. iii Preface This thesis is an original work by William Schultz.

    2015 Alberta Masonry DesignAwards 2015 2015 MASONRY Beautiful... ...but dangerous. It’s the proverbial tip of the iceberg. Awesome…but awfully deceptive. The same might apply to your residence. Behind the fine millwork and decorator finishes of your buildings, you could be facing risks such as mold, insects, wind damage and — perhaps most life-threatening — fire. A structure built with concrete block can greatly reduce these risks. Block resists moisture and mold. It cannot be destroyed by insects. It’s often the only thing still standing when severe weather has damaged surrounding property. And in industry-standard fire tests involving temperatures of over 1000°c, only block is left standing and structurally intact. Your residence is a big investment. Make sure it’s built as good as it looks. Learn more about the benefits and safety of building with concrete block.
