News and updates Photos albums Quebec Government policy Print version you are here: Chrysotile Regulation / Quebec Government policy Policy Concerning the Increased and Safe Use of Chrysotile On June 19th, 2002, the Qu©bec government adopted a "Policy concerning the increased and safe use of chrysotile asbestos". An interdepartmental workgroup, involving thirteen (13) departments and organizations, and presided by the Minist¨re des Ressources naturelles, worked during one full year to put together this policy. The objective of this policy is to encourage departments and government agencies, as well as Crown corporations and municipalities to increase their use of products containing chrysotile. Qu©bec currently processes about 2% of its chrysotile production (6,000 tonnes out of a total output of some 300,000 tonnes per year) and the Qu©bec government hopes to double this domestic consumption in the medium term, by increasing the use of materials containing chrysotile, namely chrysotile-cement pipes and sheets, as well as bituminous pavement with chrysotile. Organizations targeted by the policy shall have the obligation to make sure that suppliers of chrysotile products that meet policy standards are invited to submit proposals when these organizations proceed with calls for tenders and acquisitions of goods. The policy also provides for assistance measures for the development and marketing of new products that contain chrysotile.

Results Story Quebec government won't face lawsuit By JIM BROWN OTTAWA (CP) - The Quebec government won't be on the hook for financial damages in a massive lawsuit by women who say they waited too long for treatment of their breast cancer. The Supreme Court of Canada, in a decision released without comment Thursday, quashed a request to name the province as a co-defendant in the class-action suit. That means the women can go ahead with a plan to sue 12 hospitals across the province, but can't target the government as the ultimate overseer of medicare. "I'm disappointed and quite surprised," said Michel Savanitto, the lawyer for the claimants. "But we'll have to deal with it and go forward." The suit was launched by Anahit Cilinger, a Montrealer of Turkish origin, who underwent surgery to have a cancerous tumour removed from her breast in 1999. She found herself on a lengthy waiting list for follow-up radiological therapy and, after a delay of three months, finally travelled to Turkey and paid for treatment there out of her own pocket. Upon her return, she took legal action claiming psychological and physical damages. She says the consensus of medical opinion is that the waiting time for her therapy should have been no more than eight weeks.

Montreal, November 10, 2001 / No 92 Harry Valentine is a free-marketeer living in Eastern Ontario. He can be reached at harryc@ontarioeast.net THE EMPEROR'S THE INCREASINGLY ASSERTIVE LADIES OF QUEBEC by Harry Valentine Traditional Quebec culture was predominantly a patriarchal culture in which the Catholic Church and its teachings formed the basis of the society. A journey through rural Quebec reveals the prominent place once held by the church. From miles away, the church steeple pierces the skyline amidst the greenery of summer or the snowy white of winter. In modern Quebec, the Catholic Church no longer holds sway over the young generation, as is did over their forefathers. Irreversible Phenomena Like many western societies, Quebec society evolved from a rural, agricultural culture. Over the past century, employment in Quebec's agricultural and resource sectors have steadily declined. The place of women changed in Quebec society as changes in employment evolved, changes facilitated by improvements in technology. Developments such as the telephone switchboard, the electric sewing machine, the evolution of the modern typewriter offered employment opportunities to women which did not exist prior to the year 1900. In traditional Quebec Catholic society, a women's place was in the home, married and raising children, while the husband was out earning a living. The opportunities offered to women in an evolving workplace attracted young, unmarried women into the workforce as wage earners, able to support themselves in an independent lifestyle. The economic self-sufficiency available to women gave them greater freedom of choice and control over their lives, though at first, this may not have been obvious. Prior to 1900, there were two basic options open to unmarried women in a patriarchal society, that being the convent or the brothel. Technology opened respectable opportunities for self-sufficiency for single women in the workforce. These opportunities set the stage for a silent revolution which would attract thousands of women to assert their independence and respectable self-sufficiency in an otherwise patriarchal culture.

Personal page THE EMPEROR'S CLIMATE CHANGE REQUIRES POWER DEREGULATION IN QUEBEC by Harry Valentine During the latter part of 2004 several significant events occurred that pertained to the generation of electric power in Quebec. One was the cancellation of a proposed natural gas fired thermal power station that was scheduled to be built southwest of Montreal. It was intended to supplement the shortfall in hydro-generated electricity in Western Quebec, but encountered opposition from environmentalists. A second event involved lower than expected water levels in Quebec's James Bay hydro-electric dams, reducing their power output. A third event was an announcement about a privately-funded wind farm being built in Eastern Quebec and intended to supplement Quebec's need for clean electric power. The fourth event was the revelation that the Quebec government had the highest per capita debt in Canada.

QUEBEC SOVEREIGNTY AND CANADIAN NATIONAL UNITY In August 1998, the Supreme Court of Canada delivered one of its most important decisions on the Canadian Constitution. The government of Canada had sent a reference case about the legality of Quebec secession. The government posed three questions to the Court: Under the Constitution of Canada, can the National Assembly, legislature, or government of Quebec effect the secession of Quebec from Canada unilaterally? Does international law give the National Assembly, legislature, or government of Quebec the right to effect the secession of Quebec from Canada unilaterally? In this regard, is there a right to self-determination under international law that would give the National Assembly, legislature or government of Quebec the right to effect the secession of Quebec from Canada unilaterally? In the event of a conflict between domestic and international law on the right of the National Assembly, legislature, or government of Quebec to effect the secession of Quebec from Canada unilaterally, which would take precedence in Canada? In the end, the Court declared that neither the Quebec government nor legislature have a legal right under Canadian constitutional law or under international law to unilaterally secede from Canada. However, the court also emphasized that the rest of Canada would have a political obligation to negotiate Quebec's separation if a clear majority of that province's population voted in favour of it.

Quebec Sovereignty Michael Beland A. Define the issue It is the teacher's responsibility to ensure that students are familiar with the terms of this issue. For example: Quebec sovereignty Quebec would have independent political authority over its territory and would no longer be part of, or have a partnership with, Canada. "Sovereignty" would be one concept to teach for background to the issue. Other potential concepts to teach for background could be "Confederation", "Nationalism", Provincehood", and "Sovereignty Association". This lesson plan focuses on the question, "Should Quebec have the legal right to be sovereign?" B. Consider all possible alternatives Quebec should have the legal right to be sovereign. Quebec should not have the legal right to be sovereign. Quebec should have the legal right to be sovereign only after a clear question, decided by both the Quebec government and the federal government, is supported in a provincial referendum in Quebec only. Quebec should have the legal right to be sovereign only after a clear question, decided by both the Quebec government and the federal government, is supported in a national referendum. Quebec should have the legal right to be sovereign if 50% + 1 of Quebec citizens support it in a provincial referendum.

A Federal Government - Voluntary Sector Accord: Implications for Canada's Voluntary Sector Previous Page Next Page Table of Contents Accord Home Learning from Experience, Respecting Differences The Quebec Experience The Quebec government has developed a policy that sets out a new framework for its relations with the community sector. In 2000, the Minister of Social Solidarity, André Boisclair, launched a vast public consultation campaign with community organizations to discuss this proposed policy of recognition and support for community action. Although a government policy rather than an inter-sectoral accord, the policy was the product of ten years of lobbying and demands for recognition from the sector. régies régionales de la santé et des services sociaux, conseils régionaux de développement, conseils locaux de développement, etc. With respect to financing, the community sector is concerned that the Quebec government had not made any concrete commitments towards allotting new funds to the sector in either versions of its framework policy, but has simply moved existing money around. Although funding of community organizations has not decreased over the past years, and many organizations have even seen their funding go up because government has reinvested money in the community subsector while cutting back in the health and social services subsector, their service loads have increased substantially. The Quebec case offer two important lessons for the development of an accord. The first is that a sense of openness and responsiveness is crucial. Although there is a strong history of government working with the voluntary and community sector in Quebec, the perception in this instance was that government officials had a clear vision of where they wanted to go with the policy and tried to sell that to the sector. But, the community sector was not prepared to follow this lead without modification. The second is that the formalization of a partnership with government may impose considerable demands on sector representatives to participate in a variety of roundtables and other fora. If these representatives are already part of many such collaborations within the sector, how they will participate and the structures and resources which support their participation may need to be closely evaluated.
