B.C. Provincial Police Stories
Cecil Clark's stories from the archives of B.C.'s first lawmen show why the B.C. Provincial Police was considered one of North America's best police forces. Included are tales of the McLeans, a gang of vicious young killers in the Interior; "Skook" Davidson, one of the force's most unconventional Special Constables; canine policemen; and Sergeant Sperry Cline and his one-of-a-kind approach to policing.

The Civil Service in Britain Today

Legislatures
Legislatures provides a democratic audit of Canada's provincial and national representative assemblies. It argues that the problem existing in these bodies is not a lack of talent so much as a lack of institutional freedom. Specifically, the problem is largely one of resources and rules. The move to a more multi-party system nationally and the increasing tendency to downsize provincial assemblies has placed additional hurdles in the path to good governance. Docherty uses the series' criteria of responsiveness, inclusiveness, and participation to evaluate critically the performance of legislatures in Canada, and makes recommendations for legislative reform in Canada.
