    “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.

  • Embracing Worldly Flavors Introduction

    Embracing Worldly Flavors Introduction

    2013 Embracing Worldly Flavors Introduction May Cuisine trends follow a trajectory that typically begins in the kitchens of fine dining establishments and often take years to mature. Lately, one particular trend – the embrace of global cuisine – is moving through segments at a fast speed, leaving many operators determined to stay ahead of the pack without alienating their customer base. In this issue, we will focus on embracing global cuisine, what’s driving it forward, and how it is playing out in all restaurant segments. You will learn which aspects of this rising trend are Bonefish Grill’s Fresh Ceviche right for your restaurant menu and how you can successfully introduce them to your customers. Technology & New Restaurant Concepts Drive the Global Cuisine Trend Through the digital space, Americans have constant access to food-focused blogs, recipe websites, and TV shows. There are a variety of food-focused magazines for them to browse through as well. As a result, the American public is more in-the-know on food trends than ever before. And as their food knowledge expands, so does their palates; they’re looking for new concepts and fresh flavors that allow them to experience in real life what they read about or watch on tv. This has really accelerated the spread of global cuisine adoption through American eateries. New industry concepts like specialty ethnic restaurants, and inventive fast-casual and chef- casual eateries are encouraging the trend. For example, Brasa, which opened in Berkeley in 2012, specializes in the Peruvian dish pollo a la brasa (rotisserie-style chicken) with aji amarillo (a peppery chili sauce).

What we can see, however, is a charging bull – one with its horns locked on rental growth. — The Norwegian economy is doing better than we anticipated six months ago, and activity seems to be particularly good in Oslo. Strong employment growth should increase the demand for office space, and the limited availability of attractive vacant space is paving the way for significant rental growth. Despite our general caution in applying cycle analysis to the CRE market, we must admit that our sense is that we are facing a late cycle rental uplift.
