“From Sod House to Lefse House”
“From Sod House to Lefse House” Immigration, Ethnicity, and the Formation and Reformulation of the Norwegian-Canadian Identity in Western Canada. By Kristin Borgenheim A Thesis presented to the Department of Literature, Area Studies and European Languages Faculty of Humanities In Partial Fulfilment of the Requirements for the MA Degree in English. UNIVERSITY OF OSLO Spring 2011 ii Abstract This thesis investigates the formation and reformulation of a distinct Norwegian- Canadian identity in western Canada. It argues that Norwegian immigrants to Canada in the beginning of the twentieth century adapted to Canadian society through their Norwegian lenses and worldview, and created a distinct Norwegian-Canadian western identity through the establishment of various organizations. During the late 1930s and 1940s, mainly as a result of the Great Depression and World War II, Norwegian Canadians seem to have become more assimilated, but there were still some who worked to revive interest in the Norwegian culture. With the movement towards official Multiculturalism in Canada and the initiation of the Multiculturalism policy in 1971, Norwegian Canadians experienced an ethnic revival. The Norwegian-Canadian identity had been reformulated and was now largely expressed through symbols. Still, their Norwegian heritage held great importance, and Norwegian Canadians again celebrated their heritage both privately and publicly. iii Acknowledgements After countless hours of research, writing and editing, my thesis is done and the time has come to thank the many people who in different ways have helped me complete it. First, I would like to thank my supervisor, Associate Professor David C. Mauk for his feedback. A very special thanks to Professor Gerhard Ens for providing suggestions and believing in my project.

The Development of the Edmonton Arts Council – a Case Study Connecting Communities Through the Arts
The Development of the Edmonton Arts Council – A Case Study Connecting communities through the arts John Mahon Executive Director Edmonton Arts Council Purpose of presentation Typically, a presentation on connecting communities through the arts illustrates how artists favourably, or perhaps unfavourably, impact on their community. This paper, while not the opposite, is a less direct story. The purpose here is to describe a process, a history, where a community created an organization with a practical purpose of supporting artists and the process of art in that community while, at the same time, consciously serving the entire community by strengthening the connection(s) between the artists and the community. The creation of the Edmonton Arts Council (EAC) was a long and, at times, annoyingly slow process but, in retrospect, that slow pace was ideal and resulted in a stronger, sturdier organization with amazingly solid support from all parts of the community. The development of the EAC was not directed or controlled by a rigid pre-conceived policy or model. It was ultimately a community-led process of planning and improvisation. That process required not only that artists and specific parts of their artistic community work together but also that the arts community connect and work effectively with the overall community. Prologue It is an understatement to say that the arts and festivals are vitally important to the community of Edmonton. Edmonton has long defined itself as a home for artists and the city has seen remarkable artistic achievements in its close to 100 years of existence. The reasons for this are many and open to much discussion and speculation.
