Canadian Federalism
David Bosold
Kommentar
In this class, we will analyze the role of the Canadian Provinces and Territories in Canadian Politics. After a brief overview of Canada’s political system and a part highlighting the differences of Canadian Federalism vis-à-vis other federal systems such as the US and Germany our main focus will be on the policy fields which are exclusively or partly governed by the Provinces. The course will feature case studies to highlight particular aspects of Canada’s policies on education, health care, natural resources, immigration and economic development. The latter includes the growing presence of Canadian Provinces in the country’s economic policy, mostly in the form of international trade offices (often co-located in Canadian embassies or consulates). In terms of course requirements, students will write a (fictitious) policy paper for a Canadian Province of their choice. This document will feature measures to reform the respective Provincial Nominee Program (PNP), the immigration schemes by which provinces can (pre-)select immigrants with permanent residence status. We will also have a session with a representative of the Québec delegation based in Germany and visit the Canadian Embassy in Berlin.
