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.

  • If We Could All Be Peter Lougheed” Provincial Premiers and Their Legacies, 1967-2007 1
    “If we could all be Peter Lougheed” Provincial premiers and their legacies, 1967-2007 1 J.P. Lewis Carleton University [email protected] Paper for Presentation at The Annual Meeting of the Canadian Political Science Association Concordia University, Montreal June 2010 Introduction For a variety of reasons, the careers of Canadian provincial premiers have escaped explicit academic attention. Premiers are found frequently in Canadian political science literature, but more for direct roles and actions – in questions of the constitution, federalism, public policy and electoral and legislative studies – instead of longitudinal study and analysis. This fits a pattern of neglect in the field; some academics have lamented the lack of direct attention to provincial politics and history (Brownsey and Howlett 2001). The aggregate imprints of premiers are relatively ignored outside of regional and provincial treatments. No pan- Canadian assessment of premiers exists, and probably for good reason. The theoretical and methodological concerns with asking general research questions about premiers are plenty; leadership theory and historical approaches provide some foundations but any approach is going to confront conceptual challenges. This is where this study is found – in a void of precedents but a plethora of qualitative data. 2 Regardless of methodological challenges, some historians, political scientists and members of the media have not shied away from ranking and assessing national leaders. Some of the more popular treatments (from the popular culture version to the more academic approach) include Ferguson’s Bastards and Boneheads , Granatstein and Hillmer’s Prime Ministers: Ranking Canada’s Leaders , and Bliss’s Right Honourable Men . Bliss (xiv), the esteemed historian, is skeptical of such endeavours, “While this is Canadian history from Parliament Hill, I am not a Hegelian and I do not believe that political leaders, least of all prime ministers of Canada, are personifications of the world spirit.

  • Annual Report |2016
    Annual report | 2016 $500 million Commitment worth celebrating! Marking our $500,000,000 milestone in financing for Canada’s independent television & film community Proud to support Canadian television & film — and even prouder of the results Half a billion … and counting As industry insiders, we know just how much work — and money — it takes to create great television and film. So in 1980, we launched our first fund to support Canada’s independent producers. Since then, we’ve invested a total of $532,039,665 in nearly 2,000 productions via four different funds and programs. And while we’re tremendously proud of that contribution, we’re even prouder of the results. Many of these productions have attracted critical acclaim and awards, including Emmys, Rockies and fistfuls of Geminis, Genies and Canadian Screen Awards. They’ve premiered at Cannes, TIFF and Sundance and been broadcast around the world. Most importantly, they’ve contributed to a rich and diverse Canadian culture. In 2016, we committed $28.2 million in 113 productions that ran the gamut from serious to seriously entertaining: from exposés and insight-packed documentaries to edgy comedy and absorbing dramas. Now, thanks to recent changes to the CRTC rules governing Certified Independent Producer Funds, we’ll have the flexibility to support an even broader range of productions, including co-ventures. At the Rogers Group of Funds, we believe in supporting great television and film. It’s why we’ve invested more than half a billion dollars to date. And it’s why we’ll continue to offer Canadian independent producers a vital source of funding in the years to come.
