OBS

La Commission géologique du Yukon (CGY) [...] est devenue, en septembre 2005, une Direction au sein de la Division du pétrole, du gaz et des minéraux du ministère de l'Énergie, des Mines et des Ressources. La CGY ne fait donc plus partie de la Division des ressources minérales. Elle a maintenant le mandat de fournir de l'information en appui à l'exploration, à la mise en valeur et à la gestion des ressources non seulement minérales, mais aussi pétrolières et gazières et, dans une moindre mesure, d'autres ressources comme les forêts. La CGY fait actuellement l'objet d'une réorganisation en vue de répondre de façon efficace à ses nouvelles responsabilités, qui découlent d'un niveau de gestion plus élevé et d'un mandat élargi. La CGY est maintenant constituée de quatre services : Services techniques, Services minéraux, Géologie régionale, et Évaluations des minéraux et des hydrocarbures.

English

Subject field(s)
  • National Bodies and Committees (Canadian)
OBS

The Western Canada Concept was a Western Canadian political party founded in 1980 to promote the separation of the provinces of Manitoba, Saskathewan, Alberta and British Columbia and the Yukon and Northwest Territories from Canada in order to create a new nation. The party's concerns centred on perception that Western Canada could not receive fair treatment while the interests of Quebec and Ontario dominated Canadian politics. The party gained popularity in Alberta when western alienation was at its height following the federal Liberal government announcement of the National Energy Program in October 1980. This policy aimed to ensure low energy costs for Canadian industry and consumers, a policy that would not benefit Alberta, Canada's major producer of oil and gas.
