Abstract:

It is an especially opportune time to reflect upon Canadian language issues, since the recent constitutional crises-still unresolved-have at once brought them into sharp focus and demonstrated how closely language, culture, and politics may be intertwined. The official policies of bilingualism and multiculturalism, in particular, have been receiving considerable attention. The players-the French and English “charter groups,” the aboriginal populations, and non-indigenous non-English/non-French groups (the “allophones,” who possess “heritage” languages)-have, consequently, been presenting themselves and their agendas with rather more force and acerbity than usual. Full accounts of the political upheavals, and the ramifications for language policy are now becoming available (e.g., Edwards in press a; in press b; in press c).

Abstract:

In the late 1960s, Canada’s regional theatres – those established by the federal government to celebrate the 1967 Centennial – had a general reputation for offering few opportunities for Canadian work to appear. Artistic directors of these houses tended to be primarily European-born – Christopher Newton at Theatre Calgary and Heiner Piller at Neptune Theatre, for example – and were inclined to produce remounted Broadway hits and musicals or popular foreign-stage classics. Theatre companies like Edmonton’s Citadel Theatre, Winnipeg’s Manitoba Theatre Centre and Nova Scotia’s Neptune Theatre were ostensibly created to present Canadian theatre, but the repertories broadened and playbills often told a different story, listing productions by Shaw, Miller, Wilde, Chekhov and Shakespeare with the rare Canadian play. As a result, there was virtually no space on our regional stages for new Canadian works and little interest on the part of Artistic Directors to actively search out and develop this genre.

Abstract:

Canada Among Nations 2005: Split Images, Andrew F. Cooper and Dane Rowlands, eds., Montreal and Kingston: McGill-Queens University Press, 2005, pp. xiv, 295.Split Images marks the twenty-first installment of the Canada Among Nations series. It also marks a new beginning as the first collaboration between the series host institution, the Norman Patterson School of International Affairs, and the Centre for International Governance and Innovation at the University of Waterloo, editors Andrew Cooper and Dane Rowlands, and publisher, McGill-Queen's University Press. It is reassuring to see that others have come forward to assume the task of providing an annual assessment of Canadian foreign policy, its current challenges, and future prospects. The Canada Among Nations series has, through the years, provided a valuable chronicle of the pressing concerns of the day. On occasion the volume has been overshadowed by unexpected events, such as the terrorist attacks of September 11th, that give the text less urgency than it would otherwise have. Potentially, this volume could have suffered a similar fate, given the election of Stephen Harper's minority government after the collection went to press. Repeated references to the Liberal government's International Policy Statement (IPS), not to mention the image of Paul Martin, Jr., that graces the cover, seem somewhat nostalgic, in the face of the Harper government's move to put its own face on such critically important policy arenas as relations with the United States, defence spending, climate change and the Middle East, among others.

Abstract:

City Politics, Canada, James Lightbody, Peterborough: Broadview Press, 2006, pp. 576.Scholarly research on Canadian urban politics has never been extensive, and the few who teach in the field have had to make do with a limited range of textbooks, mostly focused on the institutions of local government. Those wanting to extend their coverage to deal with such issues as the importance of globalization, social movements, race and ethnicity, social inequality, urban political culture, regional governance, the media, and federal policy, have been forced to rely on an assemblage of diverse materials. As well, the politics of, and role played by, the suburbs is often marginal to most texts, focused as they are on the politics of the largest central cities.

Abstract:

Canadian historians have traditionally stressed that the rebellions of 1837 and 1838 in Upper and Lower Canada were revolts against British imperial authority. Less stressed has been the fact that the rebellions were also civil wars and that British troops were aided by substantial numbers of loyalists in defeating the rebels. In recent years historians have tended to downplay the importance of French-Canadian nationalism, but by 1837–8 the rebellion in Lower Canada was essentially a struggle between French-Canadian nationalists and a broadly-based coalition of loyalists in Lower Canada. Outside Lower Canada there was no widespread support for rebellion anywhere in British North America, except among a specific group of American immigrants and their descendants in Upper Canada. It is a myth that the rebellions can be explained as a division between the older-stock inhabitants of the Canadas and the newer arrivals. It is also a myth that the rebels in the two Canadas shared the same objectives in the long run and that the rebellions were part of a single phenomenon. French-Canadian nationalists wanted their own state; most of the republicans in Upper Canada undoubtedly believed that Upper Canada would become a state in the American Union. Annexation was clearly the motivation behind the Patriot Hunters in the United States, who have received an increasingly favourable press from borderland historians, despite the fact that they were essentially filibusters motivated by the belief that America had a manifest destiny to spread across the North American continent. Indeed, it was the failure of the rebellions that made Confederation possible in 1867.

Abstract:

Dancing Around the Elephant: Creating a Prosperous Canada in an Era of American Dominance, 1957–1973, Bruce Muirhead, Toronto: University of Toronto Press, pp. 323.Canadian feelings of anti-Americanism have a long history. Some have suggested that Canada was born more out of a sense of wanting to protect itself from American invaders than with a sense of what it was. The view that Canada is the lesser state is seen in Pierre Trudeau's comment to the Washington Press Gallery in 1969: “Living next to you, is like sleeping with an elephant; no matter how friendly and even-tempered is the beast, one is affected by every twitch and grunt.” The elephant-mouse metaphor has been one of the best ones to describe the relationship between the two nations and is often used by left-leaning Canadian nationalists to illustrate how much weaker Canada is in the partnership.

In this collection of nine essays, the authors grapple with the difficult question of whether the courts have done more harm or good to women's causes. The result is an interesting, at times challenging, and sometimes puzzling set of reflections on the future of women's legal strategies in Canada.

Abstract:

It is not every day I have the pleasure of commenting on the work of 140 playwrights. The first two books are publications of Playwrights Union of Canada, which has approximately 350 members, receiving, in 1996, 136 new scripts from members and non-members. With funding from the Canada Council and the Ontario Arts Council, the Union, through its publishing imprint Playwrights Canada Press, publishes six to seven plays a year in trade book format. It also maintains a list of cerlox-bound copyscripts. This year, for sale in book stores, it will also start publishing copyscripts that sell well in a form analogous to the Samuel French format. Daniel David Moses’ Almighty Voice, for example, is about to be issued in this format. In addition to publishing single scripts, the Press also publishes anthologies, including in 1997 a collection of Newfoundland dramas, the largest and most costly project in the Press’s history, a conscious decision to bring Atlantic Province theatre - well, at least one Atlantic Province - to “mainland” Canada. The East has certainly been under-published in the last decade or longer.

Abstract:

Background: Utilizing a constructionist frame analysis to identify key messages, this study investigates the impact of Health Canada news releases on print media coverage during the rollout of the COVID-19 vaccine. Analysis: The analysis focuses on seven frames related to the vaccination rollout: safety and efficacy, global accessibility, domestic accessibility, distribution logistics, distribution timeline, continued preventative measures, and vaccine mistrust. Conclusions and implications: The authors found missed opportunities for public health behaviour frames in Health Canada press releases, significant differences in the framing of the vaccine in press releases versus news reports, and the lack of an agenda-setting effect based on the proportion of frames carried over.

Abstract:

Rosalind Kerr’s volume of eleven ground-breaking Canadian plays by lesbian or queer-identified playwrights is a long-overdue contribution to theatre studies in Canada as well as to the broader world of LGBTQ studies. Although collections such as Don Shewey’s Out Front: Contemporary Gay and Lesbian Plays (Grove Press, 1988), Eric Lane and Nina Shengold’s The Actor’s Book of Gay and Lesbian Plays (Penguin, 1995) and Ben Hodges’s Forbidden Acts: Pioneering Gay and Lesbian Plays of the 20th Century (Applause, 2003) have already alerted readers to some of the most important plays by British and American authors, works by gay and lesbian Canadians have been largely overlooked. With Kerr’s Lesbian Plays: Coming of Age in Canada and Sky Gilbert’s complementary volume, Perfectly Abnormal: Seven Gay Plays (2006), Playwrights Canada Press has clearly set out to give queer Canadian playwrights the profile they deserve.

Full text

Abstract:

This issue began from a sense not only that the number of theatre productions with only one performer has grown rapidly in the 1980s and 90s, but also that some of our most provocative theatre experiences have resulted from the encounter between the audience and the solo actor: Pol Pelletier’s Joie, Guillermo Verdecchia’s Fronteras Americanas, Shawna Dempsey and Lorri Millan’s dress pieces, and Daniel MacIvor’s House, to name only a few. While we have not assembled the statistics, we have little doubt that they would show a huge increase in solo-performer theatre productions in the last ten years, not only in Canada but in other countries in the world. It is surely significant that two anthologies of solo scripts, together with innumerable individually published monologues and solo plays, have appeared in Canada in the last three years (Solo, ed. Jason Sherman for Coach House Press in 1994; and Singular Voices, published by Playwrights Canada Press, also in 1994).

Abstract:

Citizenship in Transformation in Canada, Yvonne Hébert, ed., Toronto: University of Toronto Press, 2002, pp. 289One of many surprises found in reading of Citizenship in Transformation in Canada is that the title bears little relation to the substantive content of the book. Although preoccupied with citizenship in a broad sense, on closer inspection it is principally devoted to the exigencies of citizenship education in Canada. From the volume's title, I anticipated that this collection would address a broad range of conceptual and substantive themes in the emerging field of citizenship studies rather than focus almost exclusively on the specific problematic of civic education in Canada. In this vein, while many of the papers in the collection offer a reliable introduction to the changing nature of citizenship education, the editor's opening remarks are remarkably cautious in light of what the title suggests.

AbstractThis article investigates press coverage in Canada and the United States of the 1982 and 1984 Salvadoran elections employing the concept of the “demonstration election,” which posits that some elections occur not to select governments and solve problems but rather to confer international legitimacy on the government holding the election. The press plays a vital role in creating this aura of legitimacy. There is some evidence that the American press played a legitimizing role in the elections. While the elections received twice as much coverage in the American press as they did in the Canadian press, with the exception of some differences in leader evaluation and emphasis on issues, Canadians received essentially the same media portrayal of the elections as did Americans.

In 1983 Black Theatre Canada performed A Caribbean Midsummer Night’s Dream, which was perceived as a landmark in Canadian theatre. It was the first time Shakespeare had been performed in Canada with a Caribbean setting and a predominantly black cast. The black community newspapers promoted the production from its inception to the opening night, profiling cast members, and appealing for community support with solid coverage of the event. The mainstream media also was supportive in its highlighting of the production. The Toronto Theatre Alliance honoured the company with the presentation of a Dora Mavor Moore Award in the category of Innovation and Artistic Excellence.

Abstract:

September 11: Consequences for Canada, Kent Roach, Montreal & Kingston: McGill-Queen's University Press, 2003, pp. ii, 272.This is an important book. It is scholarly, timely, and provocative. It has two chief aims. The first, as the title suggests, is in Kent Roach's words “to provide a critical assessment of the consequences of September 11 for Canada” (18). The second is to suggest how in his estimation Canada's anti-terrorism policies should evolve. To these ends the various chapters in September 11 examine post-9/11 developments in Canadian law and democracy, in Canada's immigration and security policies, and in Canadian sovereignty. In their sum these chapters provide a masterly treatment of the challenges posed to this country by a defining moment in both contemporary international relations and the “special” Canadian-American relationship. Given the depth and scope of this work, no brief review can do justice to it. Its finely-tuned yet erudite legal arguments deserve to be read closely.

Abstract:

Linda Griffiths’ Chronic is the story of Petra, a Web designer in her thirties, suffering from what appear to be the symptoms of chronic fatigue syndrome. Defined as chronic, rather than a hypochondriac or one who is suffering from a critical illness, Petra’s disease is never given an exact name. What the play explores are the possible causes of her condition – repression, guilt, stress – and how it affects her relationships with others: her boyfriend Chris, who wavers between faithful and unfaithfulness, her competitive female co-worker Amber, her high-strung workaholic boss Oscar, her non-traditional doctor Diane, and even the Virus itself. Though the Virus seduces Petra, she knows that the Virus is unpredictable, an unknown that cannot be trusted. As an infection that frequently plagues both people and computers and can have a lasting impact, the Virus is a vehicle that Griffiths uses to explore the repercussions of “the wave of new connectivity” in contemporary society (13).

Abstract:

Business and Environmental Politics in Canada, Douglas MacDonald, Peterborough ON: Broadview Press, 2007, pp. xi, 224.Whether because of Al Gore, increasingly stern warnings from the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change or the strange weather of late, this past year has seen political actors of all stripes—business leaders prominent among them—restate their commitment to the environment. MacDonald's new book is thus a timely contribution, offering a historical perspective that may lead readers to treat the latest round of corporate “greening” with caution. This study of shifting business interests, strategies and power in relation to environmental policy making demonstrates how firms have worked over the last fifty years, notwithstanding public statements and even some sincere efforts to the contrary, to minimize the threats posed by new environmental regulations.

Constitutional Politics in Canada and the United States, Stephen L. Newman, ed., Albany: State University of New York Press, 2004, pp. vi, 282Constitutional politics in Canada and the United States are staples of teaching and research in both countries, and accordingly merit periodic updating and reflection. An excellent contribution in this respect is Stephen Newman's edited collection of essays, published as part of SUNY's series on American constitutionalism. The essays are balanced, of fairly even quality, and diverse in both subject matter and ideological perspective.

Abstract:

Still Counting: Women in Politics Across Canada, Linda Trimble and Jane Arscott, Peterborough, ON: Broadview Press, 2003. pp. xvi, 210Numbers matter. This is Trimble and Arscott's fundamental message. The ratio of women in elected and appointed political posts to their proportion in the population at large is a measure of fairness in political representation that has obvious implications for women's impact on political processes and policy outcomes. Although Canadian in perspective, the authors draw international comparisons where appropriate and find Canada rather lacking. Perennial under-representation, despite marked improvements over the past three decades, is an evident problem and an issue worthy of investigation.

Abstract:

This article revisits historical rivalries between established and emerging media, namely the press and broadcasting, during the first half of the twentieth century. To this end, the author constructs a dialogue between Neville Petersen's broadcasting research and his own press research over a similar period. In his major work, News Not Views: The ABC, Press and Politics (1932–1947), Petersen (1993) elaborates in detail the ongoing constraints imposed by Australian newspaper proprietors on the fledgling Australian Broadcasting Commission (ABC) in their ultimately unsuccessful struggle to restrict its news supply and influence. Drawing on subsequent press research based on international forums, the author revisits this rivalry, particularly Petersen's thesis that Australian press proprietors exercised disproportionate influence over the national broadcaster when compared with other English-speaking countries, such as Britain and Canada.

Abstract:

The Chinese community in Canada is one of the largest diasporas. According to the 2021 Census, the number of Chinese immigrants and their descendants in Canada has reached 1.71 million, of which more than 1.29 million speak Chinese as their first language. The vast Chinese language ecosystem created by descendants has a significant impact on the language environment and politics of Canada. In order to shape the Chinese language environment, in addition to the education of the Chinese language in the state education system and Confucius Institutes, non-governmental organizations such as Chinese schools, Chinese societies, the Chinese press, community centers and families play an important role. Together they create a coherent model for the shared delivery of the Chinese language ecosystem in Canada, based on government supply, public participation, market mechanisms and family education.

Political Thought in Canada: An Intellectual History, Katherine Fierlbeck, Peterborough ON: Broadview Press, 2006, pp. 178.Katherine Fierlbeck's project to provide “a brief exegesis of some of the more important political and philosophical debates in Canada's history” (6) is a difficult one, as she herself notes, because the criteria for determining which thinkers and ideas to include are contested. Fierlbeck selects a rich range of well known and under-theorized thinkers and, more importantly, she historicizes the links between political ideas and events so as to contextualize the development of political thought. Although she recognizes that there is no single school of Canadian thought, the unifying theme of the book is that of national identity.

Abstract:

This was how the Public Advertiser greeted the passage of the Quebec Act through parliament in June 1774. It was a remarkable transformation from the ecstasy evident in newspaper reports that greeted the fall of New France in 1760. As early as November 1759 the city of Nottingham singled out the North American campaign as the glorious core of British strategy. Its loyal address congratulated the king ‘particularly upon the defeat of the French army in Canada, and the taking of Quebec; an acquisition not less honourable to your majesty's forces, than destructive of the trade and commerce and power of France in North America’. What occurred in those fourteen years to produce such a stark revision of views on the conquest of New France? The answer can be found partly by surveying the English press for this period. During these years, treatment of Canadian issues in the press displayed quite distinct characteristics that revealed a whole range of attitudes and opinions on the place Canada held in the future of the North American empire. No consensus on this issue ever existed. Debate on Canada mirrored a wider discussion on the future of the polyglot empire acquired at the end of the Seven Years War in 1763. In ranged from the enthusiasm of officials at Westminster to spokesmen of a strain in English thinking that challenged the whole thrust of imperial policy to date.

With only a year and a half under its belt, the FTA continues to generate discussion and debate in Canada, as it has ever since Prime Minister Mulroney proposed the idea at the “Shamrock Summit” in 1985. The FTA is actually generating some columns in the U.S. press as well. Agricultural and natural-resource topics remain prominent in U.S.-Canadian trade issues.

Abstract:

Little research examines the communication work that public police do following police shootings. Based on an analysis of 85 press releases, press conferences, and media interviews after police shootings in Canada spanning 2010–2020, we analyse narrative techniques used in police communications. Contributing to literature on police image management, we examine patterns in these communications, and we also identify silences and absences. We argue police press conferences and press releases after police shootings are less oriented toward misinformation or agenda-setting and more toward risk aversion. Sixty-two percent of communications in our sample used “euphemisms,” which obfuscate elements of use of force, while 31% of communications were “silent” and provided no justification for or information on the shootings. For these reasons, these communications may contribute to a sense of injustice felt by families of the victims of police shootings. Our findings may give pause to police administrators and media liaison officers who should consider what message such risk-averse communications send to families of victims, as well as to the public. In conclusion, we reflect on what these findings mean for literature on police image management.

Abstract:

ABSTRACT: While contacts between Scandinavia and Kievan Rus’ in recent history have been limited, and Scandinavian, and Scandinavian-Canadian attitudes to Ukrainians were long characterized by an aggressive hostility and racist stereotypes. The image of the “Galician” merged with stereotypes of Russians, which have a long tradition in Scandinavia and Germany. “Galicians” became synonymous with backwardness, social retardation and superstition. As a result of pressure to assimilate and competition for the same jobs, Scandinavian-Ukrainian relations in Canada became strained. These attitudes took a particularly aggressive form in the Scandinavian press in Canada. This article attempts to identify anti-Ukrainian themes in Scandinavian and Scandinavian-Canadian literature and assess their significance for the identity formation of the Scandinavians in Canada in the early 20th century.

In their introduction to a special issue of the Papers of the Bibliographical Society of Canada, co-editors Rebecka Taves Sheffield and Nicholas Giguère provide a brief historical overview of the emergence of an LGBTQ+ press in Canada, and describe how the history of LGBTQ+ print culture in Canada is inextricably intertwined with the country’s history of media censorship, which has been often used to exclude LGBTQ+ people from public spaces. Sheffield and Giguère then summarize the articles, note, and review essay included in the special journal issue and describe how, on a whole, the contributors’ research sheds new light on the relationship between LGBTQ+ print media and the communities that it has both served and helped to create, despite persistent censorship.
