Why Dissent Matters: Because Some People See Things the Rest of Us Miss, by William Kaplan Abstract Rachel Louise Carson was an American author and marine biologist who is widely credited with advancing the global environmental movement. In the late 1950s, Carson turned her attention from nature writing to conservation—specifically, towards problems that she believed were linked to synthetic pesticides—and gathered evidence about a looming environmental disaster. The er sult was the book Silent Spring, which brought environmental concerns to the attention of an unprecedented portion of the American public. Both Carson and her book were met with fierce opposition by agriculture and chemical companies. These companies argued that restrictions placed on pesticides, specifically DDT, caused tens of millions of needless deaths and hampered agriculture. -
Cultural Diplomacy and Nation-Building in Cold War Canada, 1945-1967 by Kailey Miller a Thesis Submitt
'An Ancillary Weapon’: Cultural Diplomacy and Nation-building in Cold War Canada, 1945-1967 by Kailey Miller A thesis submitted to the Graduate Program in History in conformity with the requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy Queen’s University Kingston, Ontario, Canada September, 2015 Copyright ©Kailey Miller, 2015 Abstract This dissertation is a study of Canada’s cultural approaches toward the Communist world – particularly in the performing arts – and the ways in which the public and private sectors sought to develop Canada’s identity during the Cold War. The first chapter examines how the defection of Igor Gouzenko in 1945 framed the Canadian state’s approach to the security aspects of cultural exchanges with the Soviet Union. Chapters 2 to 4 analyse the socio-economic, political, and international context that shaped Canada's music, classical theatre, and ballet exchanges with communist countries. The final chapter explores Expo ’67’s World Festival of Arts and Entertainment as a significant moment in international and domestic cultural relations. I contend that although focused abroad, Canada’s cultural initiatives served a nation-building purpose at home. For practitioners of Canadian cultural diplomacy, domestic audiences were just as, if not more, important as foreign audiences. ii Acknowledgements My supervisor, Ian McKay, has been an unfailing source of guidance during this process. I could not have done this without him. Thank you, Ian, for teaching me how to be a better writer, editor, and researcher. I only hope I can be half the scholar you are one day. A big thank you to my committee, Karen Dubinsky, Jeffrey Brison, Lynda Jessup, and Robert Teigrob. -

CUTTS, D.D., AUTHOR OF “TURNING POINTS OF ENGLISH CHURCH HISTORY,” “A DICTIONARY OF THE CHURCH OF ENGLAND,” “A HANDY BOOK OF THE CHURCH OF ENGLAND,” ETC. PUBLISHED UNDER THE DIRECTION OE THE TRACT COMMITTEE. LONDON: SOCIETY FOR PROMOTING CHRISTIAN KNOWLEDGE. NORTHUMBERLAND AVENUE, W.C. 43, QUEEN VICTORIA STREET, E.C. BRIGHTON: 129, NORTH STREET. NEW YORK: E & J. B.YOUNG AND CO. 1898. PREFACE. A great mass of material has of late years been brought within reach of the student, bearing upon the history of the religious life and customs of the English people during the period from their conversion, in the sixth and seventh centuries, down to the Reformation of the Church of England in the sixteenth century; but this material is still to be found only in great libraries, and is therefore hardly within reach of the general reader. The following chapters contain the results of some study of the subject among the treasures of the library of the British Museum; much of those results, it is believed, will be new, and all, it is hoped, useful, to the large number of general readers who happily, in these days, take an intelligent interest in English Church history. -
St Mary the Virgin Buckland a Guide to Our Church
St Mary the Virgin Buckland a guide to our church PREFACE In 1975/1976 Richard Copus, who was then a student at Buckland College, compiled a comprehensive survey incorporating an account of the Architectural, Structural and Social history of Buckland church. His work provided both the stimulus for the first booklet and the greater part of its contents. This third edition incorporates additional information that has since come to light as well as more recent changes in the fabric of the church. A glossary and explanation of heraldic terms used herein has also been included. Richard Copus made extensive use of Charles Keyser's article in the Berkshire Archaeological Journal of January 1907, which included many interesting photographs of the church around 1900. Copus also made acknowledgements to the following: Professor J.R.Harding's lectures on the History of Buckland given in the village in 1951 Andrew S.N.Wright, 'A History of Buckland', 1966 The Berkshire Record Office, Reading The Throckmorton Family Archives at Coughton Court, Warwickshire Notes by the Rev J Capron (Vicar 1963 - 1971) To which the following should be added: ASHMOLE, Elias, 'History and Antiquities of Berkshire' with Notes by Henry Hinton 1811 - 1813 ARCHAEOLOGICAL JOURNALS, Bucks, Berks & Oxon 1907 DIOCESAN ECCLESIASTICAL PAPERS FARMER, David Hugh, 'The Oxford Dictionary of Saints' 1978 HALL, James, 'Dictionary of Subjects & Symbols on Art' 1974 HARRIS, C.G.

RAND, by William Kaplan' JAMIE CAMERON 2 TO LAWYERS, SCHOLARS, AND STUDENTS of a certain generation, Ivan C. Rand was an iconic figure. He is remembered as the judge who forged a singular path for the Supreme Court of Canada in that first, magical decade of final-court su- premacy after Privy Council appeals ended. Rand immortalized the Court's com- ing of age with glittering decisions showcasing "found" rights that were protected by the constitution from violations by the state. Extra-judicially, he master- minded a solution to the Ford strike and invented the "Rand formula"-a bril- liant device of union security that made union dues mandatory without creating a closed shop.? Accomplishments that continue to stand out in Canadian legal his- tory marked Rand as a man who was ahead of his time. -

LETTERS from JOHN JONES 1791-1822 Edited by Sarah Harrison
LETTERS FROM JOHN JONES 1791-1822 Edited by Sarah Harrison PROOF COPY 1 [Transcript of original letters so the numbering relates to letter pages front and verso. The letter scan names have not been inserted but are easy to find using the date of the letter. The pencil numbering indicate that some letters are missing from the original collection. The numbering was probably done by Juxon Henry Jones who owned the letters. The footnotes need to be checked and completed.] 1 [pencil: 6] [pencil: Feb 7/91] Dear Jennefee, As I did not return to chambers, last Saturday, till near six o'clock, & consequently did not receive your letter, till then, I did not notice it in the letter I wrote to my mother from the Oxford Coffee-house. In that letter I gave an account of the very curious manner in which the late curious match has been cobbled up. I shall forbear any further remarks on the subject, for I can offer none which you have not already suggested to yourself. It will be a friendly, though, I hope, not a fruitless wish, that the parties may live very happily. I approve of the plan, of noticing this junction (for I will not call it a marriage) in the Exeter Papers, and I would have it done in this form "27th January, 1791. Married at St Pancras's in Middlesex, Philip Stowey of Kenbury in Devonshire Esqr. to Miss Ann Sheldon"1 for a longer tale than this would probably occasion more observation than is necessary for the credit of the well-adapted couple. -
Mulroney's Shadows: the Many Images of Canada's Eighteenth
1 Mulroney’s Shadows: The Many Images of Canada’s Eighteenth Prime Minister A paper prepared for the annual meetings of the Canadian Political Science Association, University of British Columbia, June 2008 Jonathan Malloy Department of Political Science Carleton University [email protected] All politicians leave mixed legacies. But among Canadian politicians, Brian Mulroney may stand unique. Other leaders have left contradictory images - John A. MacDonald as the nation-building alcoholic, or Mackenzie King, the great compromiser who talked to spirits and his dog. Pierre Trudeau stands especially as a compelling and remarkable figure that defies easy summary. But perhaps no leader has left such a marvelously complex, contradictory and still- evolving legacy as Canada’s eighteenth prime minister - Brian Mulroney. The public legacy of Brian Mulroney is truly multifaceted. It spans ideologies and deeply intertwines his own person with his policy accomplishments. Mulroney pleases few and angers many, but for different and at times contradictory reasons. Mulroney has multiple images - among them are a harsh ideologue, a milquetoast pleaser, an obsession with polls, deep indifference to public opinion, a slick operator whose slickness was exposed continually, a statesman and possibly a crook. At the core of all this instability and multiple images is a complex personality and ego that continually surprises and disappoints. Only Pierre Trudeau comes close to offering the same complexities. Cohen and Granatstein wrote in Trudeau’s Shadow (1998) that “No other Canadian public figure has ever retained such power to move his country almoist fifteen years after leaving office. No one else in office either has ever had his power to galvanize opinion. -
Journalist Cameron Admits She Was RCMP Informant
Print this Page Journalist Cameron admits she was RCMP informant By KIRK MAKIN JUSTICE REPORTER Wednesday, Feb. 25, 2004 UPDATED AT 1:03 AM EST Journalist Stevie Cameron has admitted being the confidential informant whose identity was protected by the Royal Canadian Advertisement Mounted Police in the Eurocopter helicopter-procurement case. Despite her public insistence last fall that she was not the informant, Ms. Cameron conceded to The Globe and Mail last night that she now realizes that the name blacked out in documents produced before a secret trial was evidently hers. But she maintained that the RCMP erroneously applied the confidential-informant designation to her without her knowledge after meetings with officers in 1995. "The fact is that I didn't know very much at the time," she said. "You think you're off the record -- but when somebody decides for whatever reason to put you down as a confidential informant, you don't know about it." But an RCMP affidavit suggests that the confidential informant in the case knew of his or her status as early as 2001. Yesterday's admissions by Ms. Cameron came after The Globe learned of a legal motion the Ontario Crown intends to make next week that would unseal the identity of the informant. A Crown notice of motion states that the RCMP are now aware of information "that means the sealing in question can no longer be sustained." After a call from The Globe, Ms. Cameron met with her lawyer yesterday afternoon. She later responded to all of The Globe's questions except one -- whether it was she or the police who had instigated the unsealing motion by the Crown.
