    BIRCHALL LEADERSHIP AWARD 2020 The Royal Military Colleges Foundation in partnership with True Patriot Love Foundation’s Captain Nichola Goddard Fund Calgary, Alberta March 9, 2020 MEDIA ADVISORY Prestigious Leadership Award to be Presented to Olympian Beckie Scott in Calgary Calgary, AB – Beckie Scott, an internationally-recognized leader in sport and an Olympic gold medalist in cross country skiing, one of Canada’s modern heroes, will be honoured in Calgary on March 9, 2020 with the prestigious Birchall Leadership Award, created in honour of a Canadian World War II hero, 2364 Air Commodore Leonard Birchall. The Award will be presented at True Patriot Love Foundation's Captain Nichola Goddard Roundtable and Reception hosted by Bennett Jones LLP. Ms. Scott has served as an athletes’ representative at the highest level of international sport and is recognized globally for her efforts on behalf of clean, fair doping-free sport and athletes’ rights. Beckie Scott exemplifies Air Commodore Birchall’s qualities including the ability to lead in the face of difficulty or adversity to promote the welfare and safety of others. The Birchall Leadership Award is presented biennially by the Royal Military Colleges Foundation to a deserving Canadian to honour the memory of 2364 Air Commodore Leonard Birchall (1915-2004), who was an exemplary leader during World War II in combat and in prisoner of war camps, and post-war as a senior RCAF commander. Air Commodore Birchall, while pilot of an RCAF Canso seaplane on April 4th, 1942, spotted a Japanese raiding fleet off the coast of Ceylon (now Sri Lanka). His report allowed a Royal Navy fleet to save most of their ships and reduce damage to bases on the island.

  • Along the Highway: Landscapes of National Mourning in Canada
    Along the Highway: Landscapes of National Mourning in Canada by Jordan Claire Hale A thesis submitted in conformity with the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts in Geography Department of Geography and Program in Planning University of Toronto © Copyright by Jordan Claire Hale 2014 ii Along the Highway: Landscapes of National Mourning in Canada Jordan Claire Hale Master of Arts in Geography Department of Geography and Program in Planning University of Toronto 2014 Abstract Between 2002 and 2011, 158 Canadian Forces soldiers died while serving in Afghanistan and were repatriated via Canadian Forces Base Trenton to the Office of the Chief Coroner of Ontario in Toronto for autopsy. The repatriation route took their bodies along Highway 401 in central Ontario, where thousands assembled on bridges above the highway to pay their respects. In this thesis, I detail the memorial landscape that developed around what came to be known as the Highway of Heroes, and I use this conception of the highway as a landscape to demonstrate the ways in which it participates in the ongoing remilitarization of Canada. Following the work of Judith Butler, I argue that the Highway of Heroes contributes to the production of a hierarchy of grievable subjects, and the act of memorializing soldiers is implicated in the erasure of other victims of state violence, including missing and murdered Indigenous women. iii Acknowledgments I am immensely grateful to have had the support of so many wonderful individuals throughout the research process. First and foremost, I thank my partner Greg J. Smith, whose patience, sense of humour, editing prowess, and driver’s license were invaluable to this project.

It has been accepted for inclusion in Electronic Thesis and Dissertation Repository by an authorized administrator of Scholarship@Western. For more information, please contact [email protected]. Abstract Over the past two decades, expressions of Canadian national identity in cultural production have become increasingly militarized. This is particularly noticeable since the late 1990s in the commemorative works that have been created, renovated, or re-inscribed in Canada or in important Canadian international sites such as the Vimy Memorial in France. An integral component to this militarization is the paradoxical figure of the Unknown Soldier, both a man and a symbol, known and unknown, individualized and universal. Despite its origins in Europe after the First World War, the Unknown Soldier Memorial tradition has been reinvigorated in a Canadian context in the twenty-first century resulting in an elevation of white masculine heroism while curtailing criticism of military praxis.
