Download or read book Canada s Francophone Minority Communities written by Michael Derek Behiels and published by McGill-Queen's Press - MQUP. This book was released on 2004 with total page 469 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: By the late 1950s Canada's Francophone and Acadian minority communities were in rapid decline. Demographic, economic, socio-cultural, institutional, and political factors that had sustained both the concept and the reality of French Canada for well over a century were being eliminated or transformed at an unprecedented rate. To survive, these beleaguered minority communities set out to conquer the challenges of rebuilding their provincial and national organizations, training a new generation of leaders, redefining their respective provincial and national identities, elaborating new political and constitutional policies and strategies for survival and expansion, and then defending and securing full implementation of these policies and strategies. growth of their communities, revitalized Francophone organizations and leaders lobbied for constitutional entrenchment of official bilingualism and of a mandated Charter right to education in their own language, including the right to governance over their own schools and school boards. Having achieved their objectives in the 1982 Charter of Rights and Freedoms, Francophone provincial and national leaders learned the techniques of micro-constitutional politics to convince the Ontario, Alberta, and Manitoba provincial governments to implement full and unfettered school governance by and for Francophone minority communities. a collectivist and remedial interpretation to the Charter's official language minority education rights section 23. The Canadian government assisted the Francophone minority in two ways: it made funds available to Francophone organizations and parents via the Court Challenges program and it signed lucrative financial agreements with the provinces to help defray the additional costs of establishing French-language schools and school boards. While the Francophone minority communities were pursuing implementation of their section 23 Charter rights, they found themselves drawn into the mega-constitutional negotiations and ratification procedures surrounding the controversial Meech Lake Constitutional Accord, 1987-90, and the omnibus Charlottetown Consensus Report, 1990-92. During the Quebec/Provincial Round, their Charter rights remained intact when the Meech Lake Accord failed to obtain ratification. conception of a pan-Canadian cultural and linguistic duality which helped minimize the constitutional and political impact of the Quebec government's insistence upon a territorial conception of duality, that is, an asymmetrical Canada/Quebec federation. When Canadians rejected the Charlottetown deal, neither conception achieved formal constitutional recognition. Nevertheless, Canada's Francophone minority communities were regenerated by the intertwined developments of constitutional renewal and their winning of school governance. A new, vigorous Francophone pan-Canadian national community emerged, one capable of ensuring the survival of its constituents communities well into the 21st century.
Download or read book Voices from French Ontario written by Sheila McLeod Arnopoulos and published by McGill-Queen's Press - MQUP. This book was released on 1982-11-01 with total page 216 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For more than a year and a half Sheila Arnopoulos travelled through the region visiting or living in Sudbury, Hearst, Dubreuilville, and Timmins. Here she chronicles the changes time has brought to the lives of some of the 700,000 people of French origin in Ontario. She describes the blossoming of a culture which draws from both French and English backgrounds. She features the stories of two celebrated Canadian businessmen from Sudbury, Paul Desmarais and Robert Campeau, in a discussion of the development of a new commercial and financial élite. Arnopoulos also writes of miners, poets, playwrights, lumber barons, and ordinary people, to give a vivid picture of their frustrations and aspirations. The French of Nouvel-Ontario have created a regional identity of their own. But under what conditions can French communities in English Canada hope to survive? Arnopoulos finds that federal bilingualism and the expansion of French Quebec businesses across the country are most likely the key factors.

Download or read book Ideological Perspectives on Canada written by M. Patricia Marchak and published by McGill-Queen's Press - MQUP. This book was released on 2011 with total page 158 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Ideological Perspectives on Canada, Patricia Marchak builds on her earlier descriptions of Canadian reality - its liberalism and socialism - to argue that today's corporatism differs from its forerunners in both its values and its definition of society. Marchak argues that liberalism and socialism have many commonalities, such as the goals of equality and freedom for citizens. Corporatism, however, is opposed to equality and promotes an authoritarian hierarchy, resembling the older conservative ideology. To support her argument, Marchak provides a general overview of the study of ideologies, analyzes liberalism and socialism in the context of Canada, and uses Marxist theory to explain past and present class structure and the emergence of a corporatist social structure. A valuable contribution to the debate about the society we live in, Ideological Perspectives on Canada attempts to look at ideologies from an objective standpoint, while admitting that analysts can never fully remove themselves from the web of their own society, which in the Canadian case is steeped in liberalism, socialism, and corporatism.
Download or read book Race Ethnicity and Power written by Donald G. Baker and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2024-01-01 with total page 157 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: First published in 1983, Race, Ethnicity and Power focuses on contemporary race and ethnic relations in six countries and looks at the historical context by tracing how various forces and factors, such as group power capabilities, shaped present-day ethnic and race relations. It describes how English settlers, and their descendants used their power historically to control major political, economic and social structures, and to shape the cultural policies of these countries. It explains how ethnic and race relations are best understood by assessing the changing power capabilities of Anglo and non-Anglo groups, and shows how changes in group relations are the consequence of two major factors: modification in group power resources and capabilities, and changes in situational factors. This book will be of interest to students of sociology, political science, ethnic studies and international relations.
