    Citizen Trade Policy Commission Friday January 25, 2008 Room 206, Cross State Office Building 9:00 A.M. Commission Business Meeting Meeting Summary Members present: Sen. Margaret Rotundo, Senate Chair, Rep. John Patrick, House Chair, Sen. Kevin Raye, Sen. Bruce Bryant, , Rep. Jeffery Gifford, Elise Flemings, Michael Burson , John Palmer, Leslie Manning, Wade Merritt, Sarah Bigney, Malcolm Burson, Paul Volckhausen, Wade Merritt, and John Palmer Guest Speakers: Peter Riggs, Forum on Democracy & Trade; and Kaye Wilkie, Chair, Intergovernmental Policy Advisory Committee, and as Director of International Policy, New York State, Department of Economic Development Staff present: Curtis Bentley, Legislative Analyst and Judy Gopaul. I. Colombia Free Trade Agreement – Peter Riggs discussed the politics, pros and cons of the Colombia FTA. (See Attachment). Mr. Riggs thought that the president would send the bill to Congress sometime in March, however, he felt that there was not much support for the agreement. Kay Wilkie gave a brief history of IGPAC, her role in the IGPAC. She also spoke about the Antigua internet-gambling case. Ms. Wilkie also gave her view on the agreement, that the majority of the provisions in the Colombia FTA were similar to NAFTA – not a fair agreement. She suggested that states should engage in the free trade policy process, think proactively about how states can build capacity to influence federal policy. II. Action to be taken: The Commission agreed to delay their decision and vote on the Colombia FTA until they had an opportunity to hear testimony from Maine citizens at the public hearing on February 21st, 2008. It was agreed that the commission would meet after the public hearing to discuss and vote on what action should be taken – whether to send a letter with the commission’s and Maine citizen concerns to the Maine delegates and Governor Baldacci.

  • Review of the Impact Assessment Agency's Draft Regional
    Canadian Science Advisory Secretariat Newfoundland and Labrador Region Science Response 2020/033 REVIEW OF THE IMPACT ASSESSMENT AGENCY’S DRAFT REGIONAL ASSESSMENT OF OFFSHORE OIL AND GAS EXPLORATORY DRILLING EAST OF NEWFOUNDLAND AND LABRADOR Context The Impact Assessment Agency (IAA), in collaboration with Natural Resources Canada and the Newfoundland and Labrador (NL) Department of Natural Resources, and guided by a Committee appointed by the Minister of Environment and Climate Change Canada (ECCC), is developing a Regional Assessment (RA) pertaining to offshore oil and gas exploratory drilling east of Newfoundland and Labrador. The final Agreement to Conduct a Regional Assessment of Offshore Oil and Gas Exploratory Drilling East of Newfoundland and Labrador (hereafter referred to as “the Agreement”) was signed on April 15, 2019 between Her Majesty the Queen in Right of Canada as represented by the federal Ministers of the Environment and Natural Resources and Her Majesty the Queen in Right of Newfoundland and Labrador, as represented by the provincial Ministers of Natural Resources and Intergovernmental and Indigenous Affairs. On the same date, a joint committee was established between the Governments of Canada and Newfoundland and Labrador. The roles of the Committee, as well as the Task Team and the Technical Advisory Group are described in the Agreement. The RA is intended as a Regional Study pursuant to the Canadian Environmental Assessment Act (CEAA 2012) and will assess the potential effects of existing or future physical activities carried out in the Study Area (see Figure 1) which contains multiple current and proposed oil and gas exploration and production activities. The focus of the RA is to bring together existing and available data on the environmental setting of the Study Area, in order to provide a general, regional-scale description of key environmental components at a level of detail that is considered useful and appropriate for the purposes of the RA.

  • Actions and Future Plans
    ACTIONS AND FUTURE PLANS ORGANIZATION Atlantica Centre for Energy OVERVIEW The Atlantica Centre for Energy is dedicated to increasing energy literacy for community leaders and stakeholders. The Centre includes leading energy professionals, national and international organizations in New Brunswick, Nova Scotia, Newfoundland & Labrador, Ontario, Alberta, and Prince Edward Island. The Centre serves as a bridge between organizations operating in the energy sector and the community to help realize opportunities associated with energy resources in Atlantic Canada. It provides a meeting ground for government, the education and research sectors, and the community at large to foster partnerships and engage in energy-related issues. During our 15-year history, we have investigated numerous energy opportunities that had the potential to be “game-changers” for the region, as well as nationally. It is our opinion after studying the SMR potential over the past two years, that the development of advanced SMR technology in New Brunswick has as much potential as any we have studied in the past. The opportunity is significant for New Brunswick, the Maritime region, and has pan-Canadian positive impacts. Our vision for SMR development in Canada: The Canadian Nuclear Utilities have identified a concurrent three-stream approach for the development and deployment of SMR technology as part of a pan-Canadian approach. These three streams are being developed in parallel with equal priority to address the various Pan Canadian needs and to bring benefits to all of Canada and the world. We are specifically supportive of NRCan supplying funding to support the advanced Generation-4 SMRs being developed in New Brunswick, which brings additional benefits of SMR to Canada and the rest of the world.

Once protections were enacted, the population started to rebound. Here, we describe the recolonization and recovery of gray seals in the United States, focusing on the re-establishment of pupping sites. We fit individual generalized linear models to various time series (1988–2019) to estimate rates of increase in observed pup counts at four of the more data-rich sites. Annual rate of increase at individual sites ranged from −0.2% (95% CI: −2.3–1.9%) to 26.3% (95% CI: 21.6–31.4%). The increase in sites and number of pups born in the United States is driven by population growth and immigration from Canadian colonies and is part of a larger recovery of the Northwest Atlantic population.

  • Historical Atlantica
    Historical Atlantica: How the impact of the past will shape our future By Robin Neill September 2007 Atlantic Institute for Market Studies The Atlantic Institute for Market Studies (AIMS) is an independent, non-partisan, social and economic policy think tank based in Halifax. The Institute was founded by a group of Atlantic Canadians to broaden the debate about the realistic options available to build our economy. AIMS was incorporated as a non-profit corporation under Part II of the Canada Corporations Act and was granted charitable registration by Revenue Canada as of October 3, 1994; it recently received US charitable recognition under 501(c)(3) effective the same date. The Institute’s chief objectives include: a) initiating and conducting research identifying current and emerging economic and public policy issues facing Atlantic Canadians and Canadians more generally, including research into the economic and social characteristics and potentials of Atlantic Canada and its four constituent provinces; b) investigating and analyzing the full range of options for public and private sector responses to the issues identified and acting as a catalyst for informed debate on those options, with a particular focus on strategies for overcoming Atlantic Canada’s economic challenges in terms of regional disparities; c) communicating the conclusions of its research to a regional and national audience in a clear, non- partisan way; and d) sponsoring or organizing conferences, meetings, seminars, lectures. training programs, and publications, using all media of communication (including, without restriction, the electronic media) for the purpose of achieving these objectives.
