The federal government and its policies transform Canadian cities in myriad ways. Canada in Cities examines this relationship to better understand the interplay among changing demographics, how local governments and citizens frame their arguments for federal action, and the ways in which the national government uses its power and resources to shape urban Canada. Most studies of local governance in Canada focus on politics and policy within cities. The essays in this collection turn such analysis on its head, by examining federal programs, rather than municipal ones, and observing how they influence local policies and work with regional authorities and civil societies. Through a series of case studies - ranging from federal policy concerning Aboriginal people in cities, to the introduction of the federal gas tax transfer to municipalities, to the impact of Canada's emergency management policies on cities - the contributors provide insights about how federal politics influence the local political arena. Analyzing federal actions in diverse policy fields, the authors uncover meaningful patterns of federal action and outcome in Canadian cities. A timely contribution, Canada in Cities offers a comprehensive study of diverse areas of municipal public policy that have emerged in Canada in recent years.

Written by esteemed political scientist Andrew Sancton, Canadian Local Government: An Urban Perspective is a comprehensive introduction to municipal government in Canada. The text emphasizes that what happens in local government affects our lives on a daily basis just as much, if not more,than what happens at the provincial and federal levels. Addressing all of the key questions political scientists ask about political institutions, the book explores how local governments are defined, why we have them, what they do, and how power is attained and distributed within them. Drawing onyears of experience in the field, Sancton examines the legal and political frameworks in which city governments operate; the structural changes associated with annexation and amalgamation; power, politics, and management in Canada's major cities; the important issue of money; and, finally, thefuture of local government. Current, engaging, and in-depth, this ground-up Canadian text reveals the crucial role local government plays in shaping everyday life.

Local government has rapidly become both more important and more complex and the quality of municipal management is becoming more significant every day as local governments deal with a vast array of organizational and community challenges. The Role of Canadian City Managers brings together experienced city managers and municipal chief administrative officers (CAOs) across Canada to analyse the daily issues that they face. Each chapter deals with a particular issue or challenge, such as council/staff relations, collaborative initiatives, and crisis readiness. The book contributes to the literature on local government and public administration by providing insights from the "real time" lived experiences of city managers, spoken in their own words. The book also speculates about the contemporary leadership role of the city manager and the future of the city management profession. The Role of Canadian City Managers is a useful resource for scholars and students of local government and public administration, as well as public servants who work with or aspire to leadership roles within local government.

The general objectives of this study were: to develop a quantitative picture of the changing population distribution in six selected urban regions (Halifax, Montreal, Toronto, Winnipeg, Calgary, and Vancouver); to identify the principal infrastructure and land use planning issues associated with the changing population patterns in those regions, based on the perceptions and experiences of senior planning professionals; and to identify the policies and strategies developed by regional and municipal governments, and to ascertain perceptions of their success. The report first describes overall patterns of urban growth and interprets the patterns based on a conceptual model of the evolution of an urban-centred region. It then turns attention to the six urban regions, discussing governmental structure, patterns of change, perceptions of issues, and strategies, with discussion centred around a core (usually urban core and suburbs combined) and rural-urban fringe differentiation. Issues and strategies are then synthesized and conclusions are presented concerning critical components for tackling the management of municipalities in the context of changing urban regions.
