Symposium on B.S.E. An all day, free public meeting to examine the crisis in Canada's beef industry
David Orchard will speak at the end of the morning session to address some of the key questions and sum up the discussion.
Questions before the panel are: "Who has been hurt by B.S.E.,
who has gained? Is the B.S.E. border closure legal under NAFTA?
Is the beef industry being sacrificed by Ottawa for fear of
offending the U.S. government? Ninety percent of Canada's beef
packing industry is U.S. owned -- does it matter? Why won't the U.S.
and Canada agree to European and Japanese testing standards
and why is Canada behind in the testing necessary to keep its status
as a country of minimal risk ? In the U.S., meatpackers have been
outlawed from owning cattle, so that they can't manipulate prices --
should Canada follow suit? Should provincial and federal governments
hold an emergency public debate on B.S.E.?" and more...

A Forum on Conservatism; "What Does It Mean To Be Conservative?"
The Department of Political Science and The Canada Research Chair in Social Justice presents A Forum on Conservatism; "What Does It Mean To Be Conservative?"
featuring David Orchard, with Commentaries by Professors
John Whyte and Shadia Drury and Moderator Dr. Allan Cahoon (V.P.
Rsearch).
The demise of the Progressive Conservative party and the creation of the
new Conservative party raise questions about what it means to be
conservative. Does the term 'conservative' mean anything at all? Or has
it become meaningless? David Orchard, who has played a significant role
in the now defunct Progressive Conservative party, will tell us what it
means to him to be conservative. Shadia Drury will argue that
conservatism is a dilemma that is integral to the human heart—we are all
conservatives at heart even if it is impossible to be conservative. John
Whyte will explore the transformation of conservatism that is going on
before our eyes.
All welcome. For more information please contact Jodie Henry,
Assistant/Secretary Canada Research Chair in Social Justice, tel 306-585-5411
