Book Relations interterritoriales  hydro  lectricit   et pouvoir

Download or read book Relations interterritoriales hydro lectricit et pouvoir written by Martine Verdy and published by . This book was released on 2018 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Le développement hydroélectrique du fleuve Churchill au Labrador est une histoire de conflits entre les provinces du Québec et de Terre-Neuve-et-Labrador qui se poursuit dans le présent. Le conflit prend son origine du contrat signé le 12 mai 1969 entre Hydro-Québec et la Churchill Falls (Labrador) Corporation (CFLCo) qui garantit près de la totalité de la capacité du barrage de Churchill Falls à Hydro-Québec. Cette électricité se vend à Hydro-Québec à des tarifs dérisoires pour une durée de 65 ans, soit jusqu'en 2041. Très peu d'études permettent de comprendre le contexte politique et frontalier qui a donné lieu à cette situation et comment cela impacte les identités et le territoire de chacune des provinces. D'ailleurs, la vaste littérature sur l'hydroélectricité au Québec n'inclut pas la contribution majeure du barrage de Churchill Falls dans son développement hydroélectrique. L'objectif central de cette thèse est donc de comprendre comment les contextes interterritoriaux dans lesquels s'est développé le fleuve Churchill affectent les territoires et les identités de part et d'autre de la frontière du Labrador. Afin de répondre à cet objectif, une analyse historique et géographique du développement hydroélectrique du fleuve Churchill et de ses conséquences a été réalisée. De manière conceptuelle, cette recherche démontre l'importance de l'interterritorialité dans la compréhension de la construction des territoires et des identités et du fonctionnement des frontières. L'interterritorialité est ici initiée par le projet de développement hydroélectrique « conjoint » entre les provinces du Québec et de Terre-Neuve, Churchill Falls, ainsi que par le contrat qui régit la relation interterritoriale. La présente thèse démontre, à travers plusieurs exemples empiriques, que cette interterritorialité est influencée initialement par les frontières et les identités mais qu'elle contribue également à leur construction. De manière empirique, la recherche établit que le projet hydroélectrique de Churchill Falls a principalement servi à développer d'autres projets hydroélectriques dans la province du Québec. Cette thèse confirme que cette situation s'explique par le pouvoir du Gouvernement du Québec sur le territoire frontalier du fleuve Churchill qui lui permet de contrôler ce territoire. Churchill Falls permet la reproduction du territoire de barrages hydroélectriques du Québec qui est central à la construction de l'identité québécoise projetée par Hydro-Québec et le Gouvernement du Québec. L'identité québécoise associée à sa fierté nationale, qui semble provenir originellement de son développement hydroélectrique dans le Nord du Québec, provient finalement d'un barrage hydroélectrique localisé à l'extérieur de ses frontières formelles.

Book Final Report of the Truth and Reconciliation Commission of Canada  Volume One  Summary

Download or read book Final Report of the Truth and Reconciliation Commission of Canada Volume One Summary written by Truth and Reconciliation Commission of Canada and published by James Lorimer & Company. This book was released on 2015-07-22 with total page 673 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the Final Report of Canada's Truth and Reconciliation Commission and its six-year investigation of the residential school system for Aboriginal youth and the legacy of these schools. This report, the summary volume, includes the history of residential schools, the legacy of that school system, and the full text of the Commission's 94 recommendations for action to address that legacy. This report lays bare a part of Canada's history that until recently was little-known to most non-Aboriginal Canadians. The Commission discusses the logic of the colonization of Canada's territories, and why and how policy and practice developed to end the existence of distinct societies of Aboriginal peoples. Using brief excerpts from the powerful testimony heard from Survivors, this report documents the residential school system which forced children into institutions where they were forbidden to speak their language, required to discard their clothing in favour of institutional wear, given inadequate food, housed in inferior and fire-prone buildings, required to work when they should have been studying, and subjected to emotional, psychological and often physical abuse. In this setting, cruel punishments were all too common, as was sexual abuse. More than 30,000 Survivors have been compensated financially by the Government of Canada for their experiences in residential schools, but the legacy of this experience is ongoing today. This report explains the links to high rates of Aboriginal children being taken from their families, abuse of drugs and alcohol, and high rates of suicide. The report documents the drastic decline in the presence of Aboriginal languages, even as Survivors and others work to maintain their distinctive cultures, traditions, and governance. The report offers 94 calls to action on the part of governments, churches, public institutions and non-Aboriginal Canadians as a path to meaningful reconciliation of Canada today with Aboriginal citizens. Even though the historical experience of residential schools constituted an act of cultural genocide by Canadian government authorities, the United Nation's declaration of the rights of aboriginal peoples and the specific recommendations of the Commission offer a path to move from apology for these events to true reconciliation that can be embraced by all Canadians.

  • Release : 2021-08-18
  • ISBN : 0228009278

Download or read book The Laughing People written by Serge Bouchard and published by McGill-Queen's Press - MQUP. This book was released on 2021-08-18 with total page 170 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Laughing People, translated from the award-winning Le peuple rieur, conveys the richness and resilience of the Innu while reminding us of the forces – old and new – that threaten their community. This memoir and tribute tells the tale of the very long journey of a very small nation, recounting both its joie de vivre and its crosses borne. Readers follow Serge Bouchard, a young anthropologist in the 1970s, as he arrives in Ekuanitshit (Mingan, Quebec) and comes to know its residents. His observations and questions document a community weathering yet another season of change – skidoos replace dogsleds and forests are bulldozed for prefabricated housing – while nonetheless defying external pressures to assimilate or disappear altogether. Returning to these texts fifty years later, Bouchard moves beyond platitudes of strength and dives into wide-scale injustices to present the sacrifices and beauty of the Innu people on individual terms. Whether recounting the impact of the residential school system on Georges Mestokosho, the wave of Innu activism inspired by An Antane Kapesh, or the uncelebrated work of women like Nishapet Enim, The Laughing People presents an opportunity for readers to be part of the preservation and proliferation of these important stories.
