As the Liberal government prepares to receive his report Monday laying out a roadmap to economic self-sufficiency, Francis McGuire is questioning whether the civil service will have the drive to implement it.
McGuire and Gilles LePage, the co-chairmen of the Self-Sufficiency Task Force, will be releasing their final report designed to help the province wean itself from federal transfers by 2026.
McGuire says Premier Shawn Graham's first hurdle will be getting the provincial civil service behind the agenda.
"There has been a general sense that the sense of urgency in the civil service has died and that has to be rekindled," McGuire said.
More news for a slow day. New Brunswick Parliament breaking law.
In 1999, Penetanguishene had a 100 year tradition of opening town council meetings with the mayor's recital of the "Lord's Prayer."
Henry Freitag, a concerned town citizen, felt uneasy about having to stand for a prayer to a god he didn't believe in. Furthermore, he had decided not to run for office precisely because the custom of reciting the "Lord's Prayer" ran contrary to his personal beliefs.
(He didn't agree with those like Councillor Robins, also a non-Christian, who didn't object to the tradition because they used the time for quiet reflection.)
Henry Freitag took his case to court arguing that the practice violated his right to freedom of religion under s. 2(a) of the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms. The Ontario Court of Appeal agreed with him. It ruled that although Freitag hadn't been forced to participate in the prayer, the act of reciting the prayer was a form of coercion; Freitag had been clearly stigmatized by his decision not to stand and recite the "Lord's Prayer."
