Book excerpt: "[A] compelling and well-researched examination of work-place safety laws." KIRKUS Reviews When Sheila's husband, Dean, dies while seismic drilling in Alberta, she writes her favorite quote on a sticky note and tapes it on her desk: "Unthinking respect for authority is the greatest enemy of truth." ~ Albert Einstein Walking The Cutline is the true account of a small town woman's determination to seek justice for her late husband's work-place fatality. As Sheila submerges deeper into a world of lies and political injustice for profit, her suspicions about the real cause for Dean's death escalates as she attains conflicting and questionable information from all agencies involved, including Occupational Health and Safety. Against various opposition and advice to "just let it go" and surrender, Sheila stubbornly persists for nearly four years, piecing together what really happened. Ultimately, she uncovers a concrete document deemed impossible to attain: the smoking gun document. However, Canadian laws prove to be the ultimate obstacle in Sheila's pursuit to seek justice in a country silent about exposing what really happens when companies kill.

Download or read book Walking as Embodied Research written by Christian Ernsten and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2024-09-30 with total page 374 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In recent years, walking has emerged as a methodological tool and as a conceptually exciting point of departure across a range of disciplines and practices. This volume explores walking as a form of embodied research practice that offers fresh perspectives on key contemporary debates and areas of interest. These include the climate emergency and the debate around the Anthropocene, decolonial thinking and the struggle for social justice, feminist and queer walking methodologies, and the notion of the ‘infraordinary’ and practices of everyday life. Contributions to this volume are by scholars, artists and practitioners drawn from a wide range of disciplines and fields, and from across the Global South and North. An overarching theme of the volume is the manner in which the act of walking brings the body into presence as a material part of the research process, and the forms of attentiveness that this encourages. Another theme is the intimate connection between the act of walking and the act of writing. As familiar landscapes change under the weight of Anthropogenic environmental change, walking becomes an act of witnessing and a spur to action. Rather than being a singular activity, walking itself is understood as a socially, economically and politically constructed and contested act. This volume will serve as a source of inspiration to readers from across the arts, humanities, and social sciences who are interested in walking methodologies and in new and sustainable research practices.
Download or read book Coyote Lake written by Ian Clay and published by iUniverse. This book was released on 2007-05 with total page 112 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ten-year-old Will McKenzie, living on a farm in Alberta, Canada, moves north to a Native reservation because a pulp mill bought out his parents' farm. When he arrives in Coyote Lake, Will witnesses a close family friend dump his daughter in the ditch in the middle of the night. Through both Will and Minos's eyes, two first person overlapping accounts create a narrative pieced together that recounts Will's life.

And Coyote Lake is a place where outsiders are suspect, and where Will continually finds himself in the wrong place at the wrong time.
