The main campus of the University of Regina is situated on Treaty 4 lands. These are the territories of the nêhiyawak, Anihšināpēk, and Dakota, Lakota, and Nakoda, and the homeland of the Métis. Today, these lands continue to be the shared territory of many diverse peoples from near and far. The nêhiyawak originally referred to Regina as oskana kā-asastēki which literally means “The place where bones are piled up.” This is why Regina’s nickname is “Pile O’Bones” and this is the origin of the name of our current location in Wascana Park. Bienvenue à l’Université de Regina, qui compte trois collèges fédérés : la First Nations University of Canada, le Collège Campion et le Collège Luther. Le campus principal de l’Université de Regina se trouve sur le territoire du Traité no 4, soit sur les terres des Nêhiyawaks, des Anihšināpēks, des Dakotas, des Lakotas et des Nakodas, et sur la terre ancestrale des Métis. Aujourd’hui, ce territoire demeure partagé par de nombreux peuples d’ici et d’ailleurs. À l’origine, les Nêhiyawaks appelaient Regina « oskana kā-asastēki », ce qui veut littéralement dire « l’endroit où les os s’amoncellent ». C’est pourquoi Regina est parfois surnommée « Pile O’Bones » (le tas d’os) en anglais. C’est aussi l’origine de «

  • Three Eras of Citizen-Rights in Canada: an Interpretation of the Relationship Between Citizen-Rights and Executive Power
    Three Eras of Citizen-Rights in Canada: An Interpretation of the Relationship Between Citizen-Rights and Executive Power by Kathleen Elizabeth Tsuji B.A., University of Victoria, 2009 A Thesis Submitted in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of MASTER OF ARTS in the Department of Sociology Kathleen Elizabeth Tsuji, 2013 University of Victoria All rights reserved. This thesis may not be reproduced in whole or in part, by photocopy or other means, without the permission of the author. ii Supervisory Committee Three Eras of Citizen-Rights in Canada: An Interpretation of the Effects of Citizen- Rights on Executive Power by Kathleen Elizabeth Tsuji B.A., University of Victoria, 2009 Supervisory Committee Dr. Peyman Vahabzadeh, (Department of Sociology) Co-Supervisor Dr. Kevin Walby, (Department of Sociology) Co-Supervisor iii Abstract Supervisory Committee Dr. Peyman Vahabzadeh, (Department of Sociology) Co-Supervisor Dr. Kevin Walby, (Department of Sociology) Co-Supervisor In Canada’s recent history, the cases of Kanao Inouye, Omar Khadr, and Maher Arar shed light on the relationship between citizen-rights and sovereign power, a problem which this thesis studies through its three-pronged strategy of analysis. First, it takes a postmetaphysical approach to the problem of exceptionality as it has been explored in the works of Jacques Derrida, Gianni Vattimo, and Reiner Schürmann. Their responses to the problem of exceptionality provide a framework that enables this thesis to capture the relationship between citizen-rights and sovereign power in relative detail. Second, it applies Schürmann’s epochal theory in order to offer a historical periodization of citizen- rights in Canada that highlights the effect of sovereign power on citizen-rights.

  • ''In the Field of Espionage, There's No Such Thing As Peacetime'': the Official Secrets Act and the Picnic Wiretapping
    DENNIS MOLINARO ‘‘In the Field of Espionage, There’s No Such Thing as Peacetime’’: The Official Secrets Act and the picnic Wiretapping Program Abstract: In 1951, the Canadian government created Privy Council Order 3486 (pc 3486) in order to engage in a covert phone-tapping program against individuals, organizations, and foreign governments (embassies) on Canadian soil. The program was codenamed ‘‘picnic’’ and was run by the Royal Canadian Mounted Police (rcmp), Canada’s then security service, specifically out of the Special Branch. In consultation with the rcmp, the government decided to continue the phone tapping indefinitely, with the rcmp writing warrants instead of a judge. After 1953 covert wiretapping continued through Section 11 of Canada’s Official Secrets Act. I argue that security can be understood and interpreted as an ideological construct. What did security mean in this period to the government and its intelligence services? Security was knowledge, in terms of safeguarding and hiding it and secretly collect- ing it. The article reveals the construction of state apparatus separated from the country’s legislative branch and changes our understanding of surveillance in the Cold War. In terms of wiretapping, the rcmp was not ‘‘going rogue’’ in its targeting of individuals in the Cold War, they were following orders. Keywords: security, Five Eyes, intelligence, national security, surveillance, Cold War, law, legal history, Canada, nato, United States, United Kingdom, Official Secrets Act, wiretapping, spying, espionage, counter-espionage, csis, rcmp, picnic Re´sume´ : En 1951, le Conseil prive´ prit le de´cret 3486 (cp 3486) portant sur un pro- gramme secret d’e´coutes te´le´phoniques de particuliers, d’organismes et de gouvernements e´trangers (des ambassades) en sol canadien.

    No. 38 October 10, 2020 50th Anniversary of the War Measures Act Invoked in 1970 - Pauline Easton - Demonstration on Parliament Hill in Ottawa in 1970 opposing the invoking of the War Measures Act. • The Prevailing Economic and Political Conditions on the Eve of the October Crisis of 1970 • Police Power Above the Civil Power: True Nature of Canadian Democracy • PROFUNC -- Canada's Secret Plan for Indefinite Detention • State-Sanctioned Black Ops and Cover-Ups - Anna Di Carlo - 50th Anniversary of the War Measures Act Invoked in 1970 - Pauline Easton - October 16, 2020 will mark the 50th Anniversary of the proclamation of the War Measures Act by 1 the Liberal government headed by Pierre Elliott Trudeau. Trudeau declared a state of "apprehended insurrection" in order to use the powers of the War Measures Act, which had been used in World War I and World War II to indefinitely detain people without charges or trial. Army deployed on the streets of Montreal October 15, 1970, the day before the War Measures Act is invoked. The police carried out more than 1,000 raids between October 7 and 10, 1970. Using the provisions of the National Defence Act, the army appeared on the streets of Ottawa on October 12 and on the streets of Montreal on October 15. After the War Measures Act was invoked, the police carried out another 3,068 raids and searches without warrants. During these raids police arrested 465 people and held them without charges. The vast majority of the people arrested were released after 21 days without charges while others were held for longer periods.
