Jacques Donzelot (1997) argued that the family is a form of discipline. It is an institution which regulates critical arenas within "the social". As David M. Schneider (1984) observed, the arenas of the "social," or "kinship" or the "family" are not natural. They are invented and constantly reconstructed. Gilles Deleuze (1997) pointed out that the family transports codes to recruit people into specific forms of marriage, conjugality, subjectivity, and agency. The family is a site of active participation, particularly of women (Donzelot, 1997: xxii), of embracement of, as well as resistance to, hegemonic notions of the states, ruling elites and popular culture. As such, the ideas "about" family floated and debated in families become critical barometers of larger social debates (Hunt, 199...

The prospective lack of a clear evidentiary basis for concluding whether changes resulted from an error of the design professional leads to a discussion of another problem with the existing change order process: the inherent conflict of interest when design professionals approve of changes. Since the remuneration of the professional is often based upon the total cost of construction, the design personal has a financial incentive to approve that result in additional costs. This is balanced only by the professional's adherence to the ethical standards of his or her profession. Accordingly, the approval of (again excepting possible emergency work to cover for such unexpected events as a flash flood) should incorporate a meaningful cost review process to protect ...

The traditional "bottom-up" approach to internal control documentation often proves timeconsuming and less than effective in identifying key controls, and it sometimes results in over-auditing. This seminar will outline the benefits of using a best-practice "top-down" approach to process and control assessment and documentation, and will provide practical guidance for applying this approach.
I was a community level chief for eight years and I know pretty well how things work at the community level and not everybody is in tune with what the chief and council want to do. By and large there's a majority that voted chief and council in and they set a mandate one way or another and they go ahead with their mandate. But not everybody's going to buy into it," he said. "So if I voted for the chief and I voted for a regional chief and a national chief and didn't like how my chief was working I would phone the national chief and say, 'I don't like the way things are going here and I think you'd better change it.' And that can't be done under the current situation. As a grand chief, and Angus Toulouse as a regional chief or Phil Fontaine as a national chief, you can't step in and sta...

Look up "leader" or "leadership" in the dictionary, and you will find definitions like: "A leader is one who leads", or "Leadership is the quality of being a leader." Our favourite definition of the term is "leadership is the process of convincing everyone that you're making progress, when you're going round in circles. One thought might be to adopt more of a needs and policy focus to tender documentation, rather than attempting to dictate solutions. Suppliers need to be engaged in the process of working out how to best serve the public need. Lack of communication, lack of clarity, lack of precision as to what is required, confusion over the meaning of tender documentation - call it what you will - all end up costing the public more. The conduct of a tender isn't a game, nor is it an e...

Reduced to its essence, LEED is a building certification process. It defines what is "green" by providing a common framework or language, and verifies actual performance through benchmarking and measurement. It is tied to five key areas: human and environmental health; sustainable site development; water savings; energy efficiency; materials selection; and indoor environmental quality. The LEED rating system has been designed to provide the building industry with consistent, credible standards for what constitutes a green building. The first step to LEED certification is to register a building project. To earn certification, a building project must meet certain prerequisites and performance benchmarks (credits) within each category. Projects are awarded certified, silver, gold, or plati...

The recent news about how Ontario's eHealth has conducted some of its procurement is disturbing to many. More than $15 million in consulting contracts were awarded without a competitive process. Those in the private sector are thinking, "What is the big deal? We do that all of the time." However, public sector organizations, like eHealth, spend tax payers' money and are subject to scrutiny that private companies cannot imagine. So even though, in the case of eHealth, we are talking about only $15 million in contracts for an organization that is responsible for a budget of over $700 million per year, it is a big deal. In my view, the eHealth officials were well within the scope of their responsibilities to exercise these provisions to begin work quickly on their mandate of implementing e...
