1 October 11, 2011 by COURIER the Honourable Peter Kent, P.C., M.P October 11, 2011 BY COURIER The Honourable Peter Kent, P.C., M.P. Minister of the Environment Les Terrasses de la Chaudière 10 Wellington Street, 28th Floor Gatineau, Quebec K1A 0H3 Dear Minister Kent: Re: Recovery Strategy for the Woodland Caribou (Rangifer tarandus caribou), Boreal Population, in Canada – Saskatchewan Mining Association. The Saskatchewan Mining Association (SMA) represents mining and exploration companies operating and investing in Saskatchewan. This initial letter to you is to express the sincere and deep disappointment of our members in the proposed Recovery Strategy of the Woodland Caribou (Rangifer tarandus caribou), Boreal Population, in Canada (the Proposed Recovery Strategy) that was released on August 26, 2011. The SMA has been actively involved in consultation sessions with Environment Canada (EC) over the past two years that were to have informed this Proposed Recovery Strategy. These efforts included direct correspondence to senior EC officials on August 6, 2009, January 25, 2010, September 13, 2010, and June 30, 2011, as well as direct involvement in a consultation meeting in Saskatoon on August 31, 2010 (correspondence is attached). In each of these instances, we provided Environment Canada officials with our concerns regarding the Scientific Review for the Identification of Critical habitat for Boreal Caribou report, as well as information to help inform development of the Recovery Strategy. Unfortunately, this input was not used or was ignored in the development of the Proposed Recovery Strategy. This document contains the same unanswered, critical shortcomings as did the earlier review, and we have not been provided with an explanation as to why the information we had provided was disregarded. In this proposal, Saskatchewan unfairly bears the consequences of a flawed model that was not developed in a transparent manner. As written, the Proposed Recovery Strategy will not only impose severe restrictions on the development of any resource or infrastructure project in the entire northern half of Saskatchewan, but will also restrict economic and social development for the residents of this region, already one of the most economically disadvantaged areas in all of Canada. Even worse, it is far from certain that implementing such severe restrictions on human and industrial activity in the north would have any impact whatsoever on the sustainability of the province’s woodland caribou populations. As this report indicates, natural fires are the most significant 1 factor affecting caribou habitat in northern Saskatchewan (exceeding 60% disturbance in some units), while anthropogenic activities have very little impact (2-4%) in any of the local population regions identified. Minister, I would ask that you reflect upon the serious repercussions that this report will have on the social and economic fabric of the people of Saskatchewan, particularly the province’s north, on its mineral industry, on the investment climate in Canada and strategically on the global supply of uranium – especially given that anthropogenic activities are recognized as having a minimal impact on the boreal caribou populations in northern Saskatchewan. A more detailed letter from the SMA that specifically addresses what we have identified as the scientific, technical and administrative errors and inconsistencies will be forthcoming. We would be pleased to discuss our concerns with you or your staff at any time as we look to find a solution to ensure healthy boreal caribou populations, a healthy quality of life for residents of northern Saskatchewan, and a healthy mining sector that can continue to contribute to the province’s economic growth and to global clan energy security.

    The Honourable Marc Garneau P.C., M.P. Minister of Foreign Affairs of Canada Global Affairs Canada 125 Sussex Drive Ottawa, Ontario K1A 0G2 Tuesday, June 22nd 2021 Object: Audit of the financial and personal connections of Hong Kong officials in Canada Dear Minister, We the undersigned, are writing to raise our concern about the deteriorating human rights situation in Hong Kong and to urge the Canadian Government to undertake an audit of the financial and personal connections Hong Kong officials have in Canada. In the recent months, we have seen Beijing continue its crackdown on the pro-democracy movement in Hong Kong with the mass arrest and charging of 47 pro-democracy activists under the National Security Law, the introduction of electoral reform which would prevent pro- democracy parties from standing for election, the freezing of the owner of Apple Daily Jimmy Lai’s assets, the passing of an Immigration Bill which would give the Chinese Government the power to restrict freedom of movement into and out of the city, and the banning of the June 4 Tiananmen Square vigil. In the middle of Beijing’s destruction of Hong Kong’s autonomy, rule of law, and way of life, stand thousands of Canadian citizens who are fearful of their future in the city. They are desperately waiting on the Canadian Government and its allies to act. With nearly every prominent pro-democracy voice in Hong Kong in jail, awaiting trial, or overseas in exile, it is clear that there is an increased need for a robust and coordinated response against the Hong Kong officials who are responsible for human rights abuses and the crackdown on the pro- democracy movement in the city.

I love you both to the ends of the earth and am eternally grateful for your tolerance of this project. ii Acknowledgments To my family – Lindsey, you made the greatest sacrifices that allowed this project to come to fruition. You moved away from your family to Michigan. You allowed me to conduct two months of fieldwork when you were pregnant with our daughter. You helped drafts come together and were a constant sounding board and confidant throughout the long process of writing. This would not have been possible without you. Sophia, Poe, and Jo served as motivation for this project and a distraction from it when each was necessary. Mom, Dad, Chad, Max, Julian, and Olivia, as well as Papa Ernie and Grandma Audrey all, helped build the road that I was able to safely walk down in the pursuit of this doctorate. You served as role models, supports, and friends that I could lean on as I grew into my career and adulthood. Lisa, Tony, and Jessica Suarez stepped up to aid Lindsey and me with childcare amid a move, a career transition, and a pandemic.

    The Right to Authentic Political Communication by Ann Elizabeth Rees M.A., Simon Fraser University, 2005 B.A., Simon Fraser University, 1980 Dissertation Submitted in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the School of Communication Faculty of Arts and Social Science Ann Elizabeth Rees 2016 SIMON FRASER UNIVERSITY Spring 2016 Approval Name: Ann Elizabeth Rees Degree: Doctor of Philosophy Title: The Right to Authentic Political Communication Examining Committee: Chair: Katherine Reilly, Assistant Professor Peter Anderson Senior Supervisor Associate Professor Catherine Murray Supervisor Professor Alison Beale Supervisor Professor Andrew Heard Internal Examiner Associate Professor Political Science Department Paul Thomas External Examiner Professor Emeritus Department of Political Studies University of Manitoba Date Defended/Approved: January 22, 2016 ii Abstract Increasingly, governments communicate strategically with the public for political advantage, seeking as Christopher Hood describes it to “avoid blame” and “claim credit” for the actions and decisions of governance. In particular, Strategic Political Communication (SPC) is becoming the dominant form of political communication between Canada’s executive branch of government and the public, both during elections and as part of a “permanent campaign” to gain and maintain public support as means to political power. This dissertation argues that SPC techniques interfere with the public’s ability to know how they are governed, and therefore undermines the central right of citizens in a democracy to legitimate elected representation by scrutinizing government and holding it to account. Realization of that right depends on an authentic political communication process that provides citizens with an understanding of government. By seeking to hide or downplay blameworthy actions, SPC undermines the legitimation role public discourse plays in a democracy.
