A recent study indicates that 38% of child- ren between the ages of 0 and 17 in the borough of Ville-Marie live in a state of poverty, which serves to confirm the importance of providing the most vulnerable families with access to our activities and services. INCREASING VISIBILITY TO PROMOTE CHANGE One of the highlights of the year was our participation in the first YWCA Canada Day of Action on Parliament Hill in Ottawa. Close to 100 women from YWCAs across the nation met with elec- ted officials to raise awareness of the importance of setting aside projects that meet the specific needs of women and girls within the context of the National Housing Strategy. In accordance with our proposal, this strategy has now planned to devote at least 25% of these projects to the needs of women and girls. This is a major achievement that fuels our sense of pride in being a part of this great movement.

E. PHELAN, 2331 St. Catherine Street, lVIontreal HISTORY HE history of Montreal as a centre of population commences with the visit of Jacques Cartier to the Indians of the town of Hochelaga in 1535. The place was situated close to T Mount Royal, on a site a short distance from the front of the McGill College Grounds, and all within less than a block below Sherbrooke Street, at Mansfie1.d Street. It was a circular palisaded Huron-Iroquois strong hold, which had been in existence for seyeral generations and had been founded by a party which had broken off in some manner from the Huron nations at Lake Huron, at a period estimated to be somewhere about 1400. It was at that time the dominant town of the entire Lower St. Lawrence Valley, and apparently also of Lake Champlain, in both of which quarters numerous settlements of the same race had sprung from it as a centre. Cartier describes how he found it in the following words: " And in the midst of those fields is situated and fixed the said town of Hochelaga, near and joining a mountain which is in its neighbour­ hood, well tilled and exceedingly fertile; therefrom one sees very far.

Ma recherche a l’histoire du cartier à dévoiler une époque ou les rues Sherbrooke ouest, de Maisonneuve ouest et Dorchester ouest on était riche en patrimoine, avec des grands terrains et jardins magnifiques et maisons patrimoine d’époque…. qui n’existe plus aujourd’hui. C’est possiblement la raison pour la quelle le quartier porte ce nom. Récemment on a fête la 400ième anniversaire du Québec. Les journaux ont publie que tous les clochetés de les églises on sonnait au même temps pour cette journée de fête.

  • La Diversité Ethnoculturelle À L'assemblée Nationale : Portrait Et
    La diversité ethnoculturelle à l’Assemblée nationale : portrait et perceptions des députés de circonscriptions multiculturelles de la région métropolitaine de Montréal présenté par Gabrielle Angers-Gosselin Boursière-stagiaire 2012-2013 Assemblée nationale Mai 2013 SOMMAIRE Terre d’immigration, le Québec est aujourd’hui une société de plus en plus diversifiée et métissée où les minorités ethnoculturelles sont appelées à occuper une plus grande place. Dans ce contexte de diversité accrue, cet essai offre une réflexion quant à la représentation politique de cette multiplicité d’identités. Peu de recherches ayant abordé la question en dehors des sphères municipale et fédérale, il se veut un premier état de la situation au niveau de l’Assemblée nationale. Réalisé à partir d’entretiens avec quinze députés représentant des circonscriptions multiculturelles de la région de Montréal, il se base sur leurs expériences et leurs perceptions pour brosser un portrait détaillé des enjeux de l’intégration politique des groupes minoritaires, souvent sous-représentés dans les instances politico-administratives. À travers l’analyse de ce corpus, cet essai trace la représentativité ethnoculturelle de l’Assemblée nationale par une analyse comparative entre les témoignages de six élus issus des communautés culturelles et de neuf élus de la majorité nationale. Il évalue si un député ethnoculturel est plus en mesure de représenter les minorités ethnoculturelles et de faire valoir leurs intérêts en Chambre, du fait de son appartenance. Les constats et les tendances tirés de cet essai font ressortir l’ambivalence du mandat de représentation du député qui oscille, selon les circonstances, entre représentation collective et particulière. 2 Table des matières Introduction ........................................................................................................
