Download or read book Saskatchewan s Communities in the 21st Century written by Jack C. Stabler and published by University of Regina Press. This book was released on 2002 with total page 100 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report traces the evolution of Saskatchewan's trade centre system for the 40 years between 1961 & 2001. For assessing & classifying communities into functional categories, 68 variables are used. In assessing a community's status & future prospects, the systematic trade centre relationships, the demand thresholds required to support trade & service activities, and the impact of non-systematic events such as the establishment of a manufacturing plant or mine are taken into account. The relationship between infrastructure & economic development is also discussed. The events summarized emphasize a continuous extension of the geographic framework within which people journey to work, shop, attend school, obtain health care and, in general, live their everyday lives. In this process, the concept of community, as a functional entity, has evolved from village or town to a region large enough to satisfy the everyday requirements of rural dwellers.

Download or read book Social Policy and Social Justice written by Jim Harding and published by Wilfrid Laurier Univ. Press. This book was released on 2006-01-01 with total page 497 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Social Policy and Social Justice looks concretely at the successes and failures of a social democratic government in Canada (1971-1982) in achieving social justice through its approaches to social policy. Social policy is analyzed widely, including day care, workers’ control, prescription drugs, social assistance, income distribution, legal aid and policing. Additional chapters review the NDP’s re-organization of bureaucracy and allocation of expenditures. Also included are an historical synopsis of the legislation pursued in the period and an analysis of the broader political, economic and sociological contexts in Canada. Social Policy and Social Justice is the first in-depth analysis of social policy at a provincial level. It is the product of the multidisciplinary scholarship of the authors, all of whom have extensive experience in policy-making, policy advocacy or policy research. This book will be an invaluable resource for comparative purposes, particularly since there are now three NDP governments across Canada, and the NDP is undergoing re-evaluation in the wake of the 1993 federal election. It will be of particular interest to those in government, university, community-based or political organizations wanting to re-examine mainstream assumptions about social democracy, social policy and social justice in Canada.

Download or read book The Geography of Manitoba written by John Welsted and published by Univ. of Manitoba Press. This book was released on 1996-03-15 with total page 353 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Manitoba is more than one of Canada's three prairie provinces. Encompassing 649,950 square kilometres, its territory ranges from Canadian Shield to grassland, parkland, and subarctic tundra. Its physical geography has been shaped by ice-age glaciers, while its human geography reflects the influences of its various inhabitants, from the First Nations who began arriving over 9,000 years ago, to its most recent immigrants. This fascinating range of geographical elements has given Manitoba a distinct identity and makes it a unique area for study. Geography of Manitoba is the first comprehensive guide to all aspects of the human and physical geography of this unique province. Representing the work of 47 scholars, and illustrated with over 200 maps, diagrams, and photographs, it is divided into four main sections, covering the major areas of the province's geography: Physical Background; People and Settlements; Resources and Industry; and Recreation.As well as studying historical developments, the contributors to Geography of Manitoba analyse recent political and economic events in the province, including the effect of federal and provincial elections and international trade agreements. They also comment on future prospects for the province, considering areas as diverse as resource management and climatic trends.

Download or read book Regina written by J. William Brennan and published by Lorimer. This book was released on 1989 with total page 242 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Pile of Bones", "Queen City of the West"--Regina's nicknames accurately reflect the city's exotic and varied history. Founded in 1882, Regina was one of the new towns that appeared along the Canadian Pacific Railway line as the "end of steel" marched steadily westward. J. William Brennan shows that Regina was, and in many respects still is, a "man-made city ": its location determined by the CPR and a cabal of land speculators. He demonstrates how a variety of forces--immigration and "King Wheat," the postwar oil and potash boom, and the spread of American popular culture--shaped the economic and social fabric of Regina over nearly a century. He offers finely crafted thumbnail sketches of her prominent and powerful citizens, and of more obscure citizens who nonetheless contributed greatly in the fields of labour and social services to the city's development. Handsomely illustrated with 150 historical photographs--many never before published--Regina: An Illustrated History reflects on the unique past of this remarkable western city.
