    BUILDING SOCIAL CAPITAL THROUGH SPORT, CULTURE AND RECREATION: AN EXPERIMENT IN COLLABORATIVE GOVERNANCE IN SASKATCHEWAN USING THE PROCEEDS OF STATE-DIRECTED GAMBLING A Thesis Submitted to the Faculty of Graduate Studies and Research In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements For the Degree of Special Case Doctor of Philosophy Interdisciplinary University of Regina by Lynn Eileen Gidluck Regina, Saskatchewan July 2015 © 2015: L.E. Gidluck UNIVERSITY OF REGINA FACULTY OF GRADUATE STUDIES AND RESEARCH SUPERVISORY AND EXAMINING COMMITTEE Lynn Eileen Gidluck, candidate for the degree of Special Case Doctor of Philosophy Interdisciplinary, has presented a thesis titled, Building Social Capital Through Sport, Culture and Recreation: An Experiment in Collaborative Governance in Saskatchewan Using The Proceeds of State-Directed Gambling, in an oral examination held on June 19, 2015. The following committee members have found the thesis acceptable in form and content, and that the candidate demonstrated satisfactory knowledge of the subject material. External Examiner: *Dr. Luc Theriault, University of New Brunswick Co-Supervisor: Dr. Gregory Marchildon, Johnson-Shoyama Graduate School Co-Supervisor: Dr. Raymond Blake, Department of History Committee Member: Dr. Rozzet Jurdi, Department of Sociology & Social Studies Committee Member: Dr. Larena Hoeber, Faculty of Kinesiology & Health Studies Committee Member: *Dr. Colin S. Campbell, One-Time Graduate Committee Member Chair of Defense: Dr. Laurie Clune, Faculty of Nursing *via SKYPE ABSTRACT When states make the decision to increase government revenue from gambling, they have to mediate between a range of options for operating, regulating and controlling an industry viewed by many people to produce more public harm than benefits. Very little research has been conducted that explores the interface between the generation of revenue from state-directed gambling and efforts that governments make to use this revenue source for a social purpose.
