The Commonwealth Journalists Association is a professional association for working journalists throughout the Commonwealth. Journalists in Commonwealth countries have much in common but their circumstances vary. In many countries the media lacks resources, comes under pressure from government and commercial interests-and under threats from criminals and even terrorists. Access to high quality training is difficult in many Commonwealth countries and in most there may be no machinery for working journalists to get together and discuss their common problems, the changes to their profession and the new threats from security efforts and manipulation, particularly in developed countries of the Commonwealth. The CJA exists to remedy this situation, to bring journalists closer together whether they are working in print, broadcasting, or on-line journalism, and to help raise their status and quality. The CJA has branches in some Commonwealth countries, and members in all. The CJA was founded in 1978. 1, record 8, English, - Commonwealth%20Journalists%20Association

From the mid-1990s until the end of its mandate, the Chrétien government announced selective machinery changes, numerous non-structural changes to change the culture of the public service, and decentralization to departments, which, as Aucoin observed, contrasted with the view held in some quarters that major structural change and strong oversight was necessary. 1, record 12, English, - non%2Dstructural%20change

Cependant, à compter du milieu des années 1990 jusqu'à la fin de son mandat, le gouvernement Chrétien a annoncé certains changements à l'appareil gouvernemental, de nombreuses modifications non structurales afin de changer la culture de la fonction publique ainsi que la décentralisation vers les ministères, ce qui, comme l'a noté Aucoin, tranchait avec le point de vue de certains milieux, qui pensaient qu'il fallait d'importants changements structuraux et une supervision étroite. 1, record 12, French, - modification%20non%20structurale

The cessionary State is in principle fully competent immediately, at least after the actual transfer of government, to extend its own legislation and the functioning of its own administrative machinery to the territory acquired and to its population.
