Dalton mcguinty autobiography of malcolm

Not if Dalton McGuinty has his way.

The Premier has weighed in on the controversy we first told you about on Monday.

Malcolm Watson, a teacher in a Buffalo seminary school, was caught having a not-so-private sexual relationship with a 15-year-old student in a mall parking lot.

He was convicted on the charge and plea bargained an incredible deal – spend a year in jail stateside or serve three years free in Canadian exile.

He chose the latter, and his punishment officially began this week.

The federal government has yet to say if it’s going to do anything about the situation, which has outraged many Canadians.

But McGuinty has no such reticence and wants Watson sent back where he came from.

“It’s obviously not the kind of precedent that we want to allow the Americans to establish,” he admonishes. “Not the kind of thing we’re prepared to accept, so we will certainly work with the federal government and I hope we’re of one mind in this regard to ensure we don’t become some kind of a dumping ground.”

Immigration Minister Monte Solberg has promised to take action if it appears any young people are endangered by the sex offender’s presence.

Attorney General Michael Bryant is waiting for Solberg to make up his mind about what to do, before suggesting anything.

“We will let the federal immigration minister … make his decision as to what’s going to happen,” he suggests. “We’re going to do everything we can …  but there is an initial step that has to take place, and that is that the immigration minister has to do some work.”

For once, the NDP and the Liberals are in agreement at Queen’s Park. New Democrat MPP Michael Prue, a former immigration officer, calls Watson’s sentence bizarre, saying it’s contrary to international law.

Where Watson winds up makes no real difference t

Premier of Ontario from 2003 to 2013

This article is about the former Premier of Ontario. For his father, the Ontario legislator, see Dalton McGuinty Sr.

Dalton James Patrick McGuinty Jr.OOnt (born July 19, 1955) is a Canadian former politician who served as the 24th premier of Ontario from 2003 to 2013. He was the first Liberal leader to win two majority governments since Mitchell Hepburn nearly 70 years earlier. In 2011, he became the first Liberal premier to secure a third consecutive term since Oliver Mowat after his party was re-elected in that year's provincial election.

McGuinty was born in Ottawa. He studied science at university, but ended up taking a law degree and practiced law in Ottawa. His father served as a Liberal member of Provincial Parliament (MPP) from 1987 until his death in 1990. A provincial election was called for later that year and McGuinty successfully ran in his father's seat, though the incumbent Liberal government was defeated. After party leader Lyn McLeod resig

BUILDING POLICY ANALYSIS FROM PUBLIC DISCOURSES

(MODULE # 2)

…

BRAINSTORMING POLICY ISSUES:

THE FIRST STEP IN POLICY ANALYSIS IS BRAINSTORMINGTHE ISSUES SURROUNDING THE TOPIC OR SOCIAL PROBLEM. BRAINSTORMING PUBLIC DISCOURSES PRECEEDS ISSUE DEVELOPMENT AND IS BASED ON “CREATIVITY.”

CREATIVITY CAN BE DEFINED AS – RE-ARRANGING WHAT WE KNOW IN ORDER TO FIND OUT WHAT WE DON'T KNOW. THE IMPORTANCE OF CREATIVITY IN ASSEMBLING AND DIS-ASSEMBLING (OR DE-CONSTRUCTING) THE PUBLIC DISCOURSES SURROUNDING A SOCIAL ISSUE/PROBLEM CANNOT BE OVERESTIMATED. IT IS A NECESSARY STEP AND PRECURSOR TO COMPREHENSIVE ANALYSIS. IT ALLOWS YOU TO SORT OUT, AND THROUGH, THE PUBLIC DISCUSSIONS AND THEMES THAT SURROUND, AND ANIMATE, A SOCIAL PROBLEM.

RESEARCH PURPOSE: TO IDENTIFY AN IMPORTANT MATTER OF PUBLIC INTEREST OR SOCIAL PROBLEM AND ITS RELATION TO PUBLIC POLICY.

DISCUSSION PAPERS: DISSEMINATE RESEARCH QUICKLY IN ORDER TO GENERATE COMMENT AND SUGGESTIONS FOR REVISION OR IMPROVEMENT. THEY MAY HAVE BEEN PRESENTED AT CONFERENCES OR WORKSHOPS ALREADY, BUT WILL NOT YET HAVE BEEN PUBLISHED IN JOURNALS.

[SO WHAT IS THE DIFFERENCE?] == POLICY PAPERS OFTEN BEGIN WITH DISCUSSION PAPERS AND BACKGROUND PAPERS AS RESOURCES, BUT ARE MUCH MORE COMPREHENSIVE IN GOAL AND SCOPE.

***POLICY PAPERS: ARE CRITICAL ANALYSES OF AN IMPORTANT SOCIAL ISSUE OR PROBLEM THAT INVOLVES THE RESEARCH AND DEVELOP OF A DEFENSIBLE PLAN (POLICY PROPOSAL) FOR SOLVING THE PROBLEM AND FORMULATE WORKABLE STRATEGIES FOR IMPLEMENTING THE PLAN.

THREE KEY FOCI:

[1] AIMS TO IDENTIFY KEY POLICY ISSUES;

[2] APPLY THE BEST AND MOST UP-TO-DATE RESEARCH TO HELP UNDERSTAND THESE ISSUES; AND

[3] EXPLORES THE IMPLICATIONS OF THIS RESEARCH FOR THE DESIGN AND CONDUCT OF POLICY.

THE PROSPECTIVE OUTCOME:

POLICY PAPERS ARE GENERALLY EXPECTED TO INCREASE THE INVOLVEMENT OF ORGANIZATIONS AND INDIVIDUALS IN AND IMPORTAN

Prime Minister Justin Trudeau has added more to the federal debt this year than any other prime minister in Canadian history.

And, if Trudeau’s friends and surrogates in the media are correct, he will announce another $50-100 billion in new borrowing in his upcoming throne speech on September 23.

This next round of reckless spending, we’re being told, will be sold as something of a Green New Deal.

Finance Minister Chrystia Freeland says the plan is to “decarbonize” the economy, and Trudeau touted it as an “ambitious green agenda.”

But before Canadians give the PM another blank cheque, we should remember our own experiences with disastrous green energy projects and failed green energy schemes. Even Canadians who worry about climate change and want to prioritize a clean natural environment should not fall for the empty promises of a so-called green recovery.

For those in Ontario, we’ve seen this movie before — and it doesn’t end well.

In 2009, the Ontario Liberal government introduced the Ontario Green Energy Act, a utopian strategy that was supposed to make Ontario a green pioneer and world leader in sustainable development.

Instead, it drove countless Ontario households into bankruptcy, forced businesses and manufacturers to shut their doors or flee the province, landed an unlucky Liberal staffer in jail, and meanwhile, well-connected insiders built personal fortunes through green corporate handouts and special backroom deals.

Under this scheme, the Ontario government shut down the province’s coal energy plants and attempted to replace them with highly subsidized wind and solar energy sources. These sources turned out to be highly unreliable, failing to meet the energy needs of the province.

Ontario found itself in the precarious position where it was importing expensive energy during peak hours and forced to sell excess energy produced at night at a substantial loss.

Energy prices spiked by 110% in Ontario, and the government was left scramblin
