New Group Bucks Birth Control keeps the THE UBYSSEY doctor away VOL. XLVII, No. 33 VANCOUVER, B.C., FRIDAY, JANUARY 8, 1965 CA 4-3916 New group bucks birth control ban By IAN CAMERON UBC's newly-formed Demographic Society plans to go ahead with distribution of birth-control information despite the Criminal Code of Canada and the AMS. The Demographic Society's constitution, placed before the AMS University Clubs Commit­ tee Wednesday, states the group intends to "disseminate birth control literature". However the Criminal Code of Canada, section 150, subsec­ tion C, calls this an offence. And Thursday AMS presi­ dent Roger McAfee denied re­ ports given to the downtown news media to the effect the AMS has approved the spread of birth control information at UBC. But Sieglinde Streda, found­ er of the Demographic Society, said she is not worried by the possibility that the constitution —ben mckinnon photo may not be passed by the AMS SPEEDY SCIENCEMEN raced and rioted while blocking B.C.

The facts were that the Plaintiff’s home was destroyed in a fire. The Defendant, the Plaintiff’s insurer, denied the claim made under the insurance policy on the grounds that the fire had been deliberately set even though the local fire chief, the Defendant’s own fire investigator and the Defendant’s initial expert all agreed that there was no evidence of arson. At trial, the jury awarded the Plaintiff $1 million in punitive damages against the Defendant for bad faith denial of coverage.

  • (Title of the Thesis)*
    “ODDBALLS AND ECCENTRICS” (“LES HIRSUTES ET LES EXCENTRIQUES”): VISUAL ARTS AND ARTISTS IN THE POPULAR PRESS IN POST-WAR CANADA by Debra Anne Antoncic A thesis submitted to the Department of Art In conformity with the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Queen‟s University Kingston, Ontario, Canada (May 2011) Copyright © Debra Anne Antoncic, 2011 Abstract This dissertation examines the representation of visual arts and artists in two popular Canadian magazines. It is based on case studies of the Montréal-based Le petit journal, a French-language magazine, and the Toronto-based English-language publication Star Weekly, from 1945 to 1968. Both were weekly magazines with large readerships and included content for the entire family. Neither was devoted to visual arts but both carried photographs and articles that engaged with broad issues in the field of visual arts. As such, they represent a cross-section of ideas and perspectives that is very different from those of daily newspapers or of publications explicitly devoted to the arts. In addition, both implicitly claimed a national perspective by including articles and information about different regions of Canada. In this way, although in reality the two publications constitute a central Canadian perspective, inflected in each case by the particularities of their provincial locations, they claimed a national vision. In contrast to existing research concerning art journals and art critics in Canada, my investigation involves the ownership and editorial direction of these two popular magazines. By analyzing the content of the magazines across more than two decades, I am able to identify shifts in outlook as they occurred and consider them in the context of the period.
