In this volume eleven areas of government policy are analyzed, including economic management (deficit control, trade promotion and employment), national unity social policies (child care, elderly benefits and housing) and ethics. Overall, Liberal policies bear a much stronger resemblance to Tory Blue philosophy than their own Red Book.

The twenty-sixth edition of How Ottawa Spends examines the policy initiatives, priorities, and initial spending of Martin’s Liberals in an era where a political coronation seemed inevitable but high expectations had to be managed downwards almost immediately. Carleton University’s School of Public Policy and Public Administration’s annual study focuses on key issues, including Canada-US cross-border relations, health care reform, public safety and security, and the role of public inquiries. A less-than-buoyant fiscal surplus, escalating concerns about Liberal Party ethics and

A history of logging and life in the Ottawa Valley in the 19th century.The legend of the rough and rugged lumberjack is familiar to nearly all Canadians. The hardy shantyman toiling through the harsh winter, the powerful axeman felling mighty trees, and the great log drives downriver are key to Ontario’s history in the 19th and early 20th centuries. The Ottawa Valley was home to one of the world’s richest coniferous forests, which gave rise to flowing timber, lumber, and pulp and paper industries and a major theme in Canadian social and cultural history.Lumber Kings and Shantymen t

For decades, Ottawa has struggled with Atlantic Canada and the West over the question of political restructuring. Although Ottawa has often tried to push the "outer" provinces towards regional integration, it has never been successful. Ottawa and the Outer Provinces explores the idea of regional integration from several perspectives: it examines the relevance of the issue in Canadian history; the effect of institutional variables on the debate; the impact of past cultural experiences; and the challenge of balancing equity and efficiency principles in a divided policy. Ottawa and the Outer Prov

In How Ottawa Spends, some of the country’s top political analysts get inside the byzantine world of federal decision-making, shedding light on the real priorities of the political parties.Among their findings: federal spending cuts do not necessarily "stick", because affected ministers are often given an offsetting package of funds for different purposes; while Ottawa has become the country’s biggest advertiser (close to $60 million in 1982-83), it has increasing trouble discerning between information and propaganda; because they are afraid of losing their regional blocs of supp
