The Ministry of Alberta Environment appointed a Hazardous Waste Management Committee on September 14, 1979. It was composed of three civil servants and three members of the public, one of whom was Harris. The committee’s task was to classify materials of concern, including who produced them and where they were being produced. The results were compiled into a report on Hazardous Waste Management in Alberta. It recommended that an integrated waste treatment system be established in Alberta with the Alberta Government playing a leadership role in the program. Harris’ main contribution was the section entitled “Concepts of Hazards, Toxicity and Risk”, focusing on the assessment of risks. In order to study successful hazardous waste management facilities, the committee visited plants all over Europe. Public talks were held throughout the Province of Alberta, mostly by Harris, to educate the people in hopes of finding a host for the proposed treatment facility. Ryley and Swan Hills were publicly accepted by their communities to host the treatment facility. Swan Hills was chosen as the location and on December 31, 1985 Harris resigned from the committee.

The specific topics this subseries covers are a bilingualism by-law in the city of Ottawa after amalgamation, bilingual education in Ontario, Moncton being declared a bilingual city, the Monfort Hospital in Ottawa offering French language medical training, bilingualism as a job requirement in the federal government as well as municipal jobs in bilingual cities, funding through Heritage Canada for translation and language training, cost associated with translation and language training at the federal level to implement a bilingual government, language rights in Quebec, Quebec language laws, discrimination against Anglophones in Quebec, activism of English rights groups such as Alliance for the Preservation of English in Canada (APEC), opinions on bilingualism and multiculturalism, support from Human Rights Institute of Canada members for the Institute’s work on bilingualism, organising screenings of a documentary called “The Rise and Fall of English Montreal,” and mutual support between the Institute and anglophone rights groups. Marguerite Ritchie and the Human Rights Institute of Canada opposed the implementation of bilingualism in the federal government and for the city of Ottawa because anglophones made up the majority of the population and francophones are significantly more likely to be bilingual. The Institute was concerned that official bilingualism in Ottawa would lead to discrimination against anglophones in municipal funding for cultural groups and in employment with the city by placing language qualifications above other qualifications. Marguerite Ritchie also questioned whether it was legal for a by-law to make a city bilingual without the permission of the province. The Government of Ontario stated that being the Capital Region, Ottawa was considered exempt from that rule, however Gatineau did not become bilingual despite being part of the Capital Region. Subseries includes some correspondence with board members and Institute members resigning in protest of the Institute’s position on bilingualism.
