    APRIL 2008 VOLUME 15 / NUMBER 2 $3 PM# 40064924 NOTE FROM THE CHAIR The MPWWA is committed to the improved operation of water and wastewater treatment plants through the better understanding of the design, construction and manage - ment of these facilities. Through the provision of regular “hands on” workshops and seminars, the association has enabled operators to upgrade their knowledge and has provided operators, especially those in smaller Maritime centres, with the opportunity to receive proper train - ing. The MPWWA encourages and facilitates an interchange of ideas between operators, professional and consultant engineers, contractors and other wastewater associations. In effect, the MPWWA provides an open forum for Atlantic Canada and has improved communications among operators, provincial govern - ments, industry and wastewater consultants across Newfoundland, New Brunswick, Nova Scotia and Prince Edward Island. What training opportunities are on the way? We have our 28th annual training seminar planned for April 20 to 23. At the event, we will be touching on several new technologies and introducing some of the latest equipment that is being used in the treatment of water and wastewater. In the coming months, there are also the following workshops lined up: • Electrical workshops at PEI's Holland College, Module #1 (May 5 to 6) and Module #2 (May 7 to 8). • Fire hydrant and valves workshops this spring, date and place TBA. MPWWA's training committee will hold a meeting shortly after the April conference to plan the workshops for the coming year. Have an idea? Send it our way.

  • Minister of Fisheries and Oceans
    Honourable Ron Chisholm Minister of Fisheries and Aquaculture P.O. Box 2223 Halifax, NS B3J 3C4 January 9th, 2009 Dear Minister Chisholm, In June 2008, your Government announced its commitment to develop a Sustainable Coastal Development Strategy by 2010. We commend the government for taking on this significant initiative. We would like to be formally involved, in a consultative capacity, in the development of the Sustainable Coastal Development Strategy. We are requesting a meeting to discuss mechanisms whereby our input can be formally included in the process. The undersigned organizations support the development and implementation of a Sustainable Coastal Development strategy. Specifically, we expect the Strategy will address the following pressing coastal issues: deteriorating coastal water quality, the destruction of coastal ecosystems and habitats, the loss of marine biodiversity, protection of traditional fisheries, maintaining coastal access, and the vulnerability of our coastal areas to climate change. There is a pressing need for clearer, integrated governance and effective planning that involves the residents of coastal communities. An effective Coastal Development Strategy must result in action on the problems facing our coast. Given the sensitivity of Nova Scotia’s coasts to climate change impacts such as sea level rise, storm surges and accelerated erosion, the province should work with municipalities to reduce the vulnerability of our coastal communities to climate change. Secondly, we expect the Strategy to include federal-provincial-municipal cooperation and coordination on comprehensive land-use planning that addresses coastal issues through use of tools such as zoning, set-backs and the establishment of coastal marine protected areas within consistently applied and enforced regulations.

  • The 2006 Provincial Election in Nova Scotia
    63 The 2006 Provincial Election in Nova Scotia - Lori Turnbull, Dalhousie University1 Abstract Rodney MacDonald, the youngest premier in Nova Scotia’s history, made an election call on May 13, 2006. He had been the leader of the Progressive Conservative party for only three months, but was certainly no rookie politician. He was elected to the legislature first in 1999 and went on to hold several cabinet portfolios in John Hamm’s government, including immigration and tourism. Not quite three years had passed since the last provincial election in 2003, but MacDonald was eager to try to upgrade the PC minority government to a majority and to establish a mandate for himself as leader of the province. When all was said and done exactly one month later, MacDonald ended up with two seats fewer than he had at dissolution. The New Democrats were the clear winners, picking up five seats, while the Liberals slipped by one.1 The results were no surprise to political pundits and seemed to confirm the durability of Nova Scotia’s three-party system. In this brief article, I review the events and issues that defined the 2006 campaign. 1. Nova Scotia Politics, Pre-dissolution The Conservative government’s generosity in April of 2006 was a warning sign that an election call was near. Premier MacDonald traveled the province bringing good news to a whole host of causes, including a pledge of $6.4 million for research on offshore oil and gas (Canadian Press, ctv.ca, April 28, 2006). The legislature re-opened with a Speech from the Throne on May 4 that promised, among other things, tax cuts and investments in schools, hospitals, roads, and affordable housing (CBC News, cbc.ca, May 5, 2006).
