How are they transformed from children to combatants? In Child to Soldier, Opiyo Oloya addresses these timely, troubling questions by exploring how Acholi children in Northern Uganda, abducted by infamous warlord Joseph Kony and his Lord’s Resistance Army (LRA), become soldiers. Oloya – himself an Acholi, a refugee from Idi Amin’s rule of Uganda, and a high- ranking figure in Canadian education – is a scholar who challenges conventional thinking on child-inducted soldiers by illustrating the familial loyalty that develops within a child’s new surroundings in the bush. Based on interviews with former child combatants, this book provides a cultural context for understanding the process of socializing children into violence. Oloya details how Kony and the LRA exploit and pervert Acholi cultural heritage and pride to control and direct the children in war. Child to Soldier is also ground-breaking in its emphasis on the tragic fact that child-inducted soldiers do not remain children forever, but become adults who remain sharply scarred by their introduction into combat at a young age. Given Approx. 224 pp / 6 x 9 / March 2013 the constant struggle in courts in deciding whether former child-inducted soldiers 12 illustrations should be pardoned or prosecuted for their activities and conduct, Oloya’s eye- Cloth 978-1-4426-4604-9 opening book will have a major impact. $65.00 (£45.99) E Paper 978-1-4426-1417-8 Opiyo Oloya is the Superintendent of Education for School Leadership with the $24.95 (£17.99) C York Catholic District School Board.

Along with offering gripping testimonies of former CI combatants, Opiyo Oloya helps readers understand how Acholi and Ugandan culture shaped the dynamics of children who became a part of war and illuminates the challenges faced by the Acholi people seeking a way forward.” George J.

Boasting an all- star cast of contributors – including some of Canada’s most prominent writers, journalists, and academics – it probes the role of public discourse and intellectual persuasion in shaping Canada’s past, present, and future. The Public Intellectual in Canada looks at how individuals have come to assume this role, how they are received by various publics, and what they have been able to accomplish. The pieces cover topics ranging from the potential and perils of advocacy to the influence of think tanks on public policy. Many pieces also delve into the roles of pollsters, political actors, pundits, social activists, economists, and ethicists, among others. Broad in scope and stylistically diverse, these essays offer an energetic overview of the links between thought, public exposition, and action in the fields of politics, science, and culture.

Hedican The Tragic Failure of Canada’s Aboriginal Policy Edward J. Hedican IPPERWASH On September 6, 1995, Dudley George was shot by Ontario Provincial Police officer Kenneth Deane. He died shortly after midnight the next day. George had been The Tragic Failure participating in a protest over land claims in Ipperwash Provincial Park, which of Canada’s Aboriginal Policy had been expropriated from the native Ojibwe after the Second World War. A confrontation erupted between members of the Stoney Point and Kettle Point Bands and officers of the OPP’s Emergency Response Team, which had been instructed to use necessary force to disband the protest by Premier Mike Harris’s government. George’s death and the grievous mishandling of the protest led to the 2007 Ipperwash Inquiry. Edward J. Hedican’s Ipperwash provides an incisive examination of protest and dissent within the context of land claims disputes and Aboriginal rights. Hedican investigates how racism and government practices have affected Aboriginal resistance to policies, especially those that have resulted in the loss of Aboriginal lands and led to persistent socio-economic problems in Native communities. He offers a number of specific solutions and policy recommendations on how Aboriginal protests can be resolved using mediation and dispute management Approx. 320 pp / 6 x 9 / May 2013 – instead of the coercive force used in Ipperwash Park that ultimately gave this 6 illustrations, 2 tables lamentable story such infamy.
