  • Release : 1985-01-01
  • ISBN : 9780888629005
  • Pages : 276 pages

Download or read book The Other Macdonald Report written by Daniel Drache and published by James Lorimer & Company. This book was released on 1985-01-01 with total page 276 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1982 the Macdonald Commission began its $20-million mission to find a consensus on Canada's future. The commission held hearings in 28 towns and cities, met with 700 concerned parties and assembled nearly 40,000 pages of testimony. In his Report, Commission chair Donald S. Macdonald announced Canada must make a "leap of faith" and embrace free trade with the U.S., apparently signalling the victory of a globalizing, corporate vision of the country's development. The Other Macdonald Report reopens the debate, presenting twenty key submissions to the Commission by organizations such as the Canadian Conference of Catholic Bishops, the United Auto Workers, the National Action Committee on the Status of Women, the Canadian Mental Health Association and the National Farmers Union. Together these groups offer a vision of Canada where human needs take priority over capital and technology. The Other Macdonald Report offers alternatives to the corporate vision for Canada's future, alternatives forged during the vibrant free trade debates of the mid-1980s.

  • ISBN : 1552380564
  • Pages : 358 pages

Download or read book Nunavik written by Ann Vick-Westgate and published by University of Calgary Press. This book was released on 2002 with total page 358 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "In the pages of this book, you will read of the efforts of many to fearlessly audit the state of education in Nunavik. To diligently seek improvement of an already good system. To fix what is not necessarily broken so that those who come after us will have it even better than we did. The various tensions and differences of opinion are, to me, not contentious at all. The status quo, however good or excellent, is no place to stay. I think all recognize this." - Zebedee Nungak, from the Foreword As a history of the development of self-government in education, Nunavik: Inuit-Controlled Education in Arctic Quebec provides Native perspectives on formal education in Nunavik while offering readers a unique view into contemporary Inuit society. This book documents the development of education from the arrival of the first traders and missionaries in the mid-nineteenth century through the creation of the Kativik School Board and the evaluation of its operations by the Nunavik Education Task Force in the 1990s. Nunavik takes a detailed look at the complex debate of the Inuit of Northern Quebec about the purposes, achievements, and failures of the public schools in their communities, the first Inuit-controlled school district in Canada. Participants in these debates included elders who were educated traditionally, their children with a few years of education in mission and government schools, their grandchildren who attended southern high schools or residential schools, and current students and recent graduates of the Kativik schools. Qallunaat (non-Inuit) were also participants, as residents of Nunavik communities, parents of Inuit children, teachers, administrators, and expert consultants. Illustrated with rich historical photographs (many in colour) and maps from the collections of the Avataq Cultural Institute and the Makivik Corporation, Nunavik provides a uniquely Native perspective on school change in indigenous communities.

Book An Evaluation of the Implementation of the Environmental Regimes Established by Comprehensive Claims Settlements in Canada

Download or read book An Evaluation of the Implementation of the Environmental Regimes Established by Comprehensive Claims Settlements in Canada written by Paul F. Wilkinson and published by . This book was released on 1995 with total page 89 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The objective of the report is to evaluate the implementation of the environmental regimes created by comprehensive claims settlements in Canada. In practice, however, only the regimes created by the James Bay and Northern Québec Agreement ("JBNQA") have been implemented for long enough to permit meaningful evaluation. The structure and functioning of the environmental regimes established by the JBNQA are described, including the contents of the EISs, the objectives of the Regimes, and the mandates and structures of the Review Bodies that implement them. An historical overview of the implementation of the Regimes is presented, based on annual reports, minutes of meetings, and previous implementation reviews. The topics covered include year of establishment, frequency of meetings, place of meetings, communications programmes, aboriginal membership, continuity of membership, attendance, budgetary issues, remuneration of members, language of operations, availability of documentation in Cree and Inuktitut, secretariats, and the numbers and types of projects reviewed. The Regimes are then evaluated in light of the following criteria: their stated objectives; the situation prevailing in the area in question prior to their establishment; the situation prevailing in other areas; the standards normally applied to consultative committees; and the opinions of the parties"--Executive summary, p. 5.

Book Co operative Management of Local Fisheries

Download or read book Co operative Management of Local Fisheries written by Evelyn Pinkerton and published by UBC Press. This book was released on 2011-11-01 with total page 315 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is the first to consolidate information on the different routes by which these co-operative management arrangements have evolved. The authors include anthropologists, environmental planners, biologists, economists, fishery managers and tribal and governmental leaders. Their contributions examine the process of achieving co-management, the institutions created by co-management arrangements, and the benefits which result. Some of these benefits include more efficient and equitable management, less conflict between government and fishermen, and better co-operation between groups of fishermen. Co-operative Management of Local Fisheries looks at successes and failures of these arrangements for shared decision-making and offers guidelines for viable co-operative management.

Book excerpt: How do Indigenous communities in Canada balance the development needs of a growing population with cultural commitments and responsibilities as stewards of their lands and waters? Caring for Eeyou Istchee recounts the extraordinary experience of the James Bay Cree community of Wemindji, Quebec, who partnered with a multi-disciplinary research team to protect a territory of great cultural significance in ways that respect community values and circumstances. By addressing fundamental questions such as what should be protected and how, Indigenous and non-Indigenous partners reveal how protected area creation presents a powerful vehicle for Indigenous stewardship, biological conservation, and cultural heritage protection.
