  • The Canadian Adolescent Refugee Experience
    Living Within Hyphenated Paradoxes – The Canadian Adolescent Refugee Experience SOFIA NOORI A DISSERTATION SUBMITTED TO THE FACULTY OF GRADUATE STUDIES IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY GRADUATE PROGRAM IN SOCIAL AND POLITICAL THOUGHT YORK UNIVERSITY TORONTO, ONTARIO September 2020 © Sofia Noori, 2020 ABSTRACT In 2018, the Canadian government admitted 46,500 refugees. This followed a remarkable record resettlement of Syrian refugees in Canada from 2015–17, with just under half aged 17 or younger. This dissertation addresses how adolescent refugees negotiate the issues and aftermath of living in civil unrest, war, migration, transitory states, refugee camps, and resettlement. I analyze published memoirs and vlogs by Canadians who were adolescent refugees when they arrived in this country. By highlighting the life stories of ten Canadians who experienced varying degrees of “refugee-ness,” I argue that these asylum seekers contend with paradoxical claims to their subjectivities. While witnessing conflicts and camps traumatizes these young people, they successfully achieve independence and greater stability after settling in Canada. Shifting cultural practices informed by their native and host countries are factors that influence refugee’s sense of identity liminalities: being too young, too old, not westernized enough, not native enough, lacking schooling and wanting academic accolades. Readings of their narratives informed by psychoanalysis and postcolonial theory show that young refugees employ ancestral coping mechanisms, intellectualization, and sublimation to make meaning from their experienced losses and grief. Fanon’s and Said’s theories address the violent colonial context of exile and alienation. Anna Freud and Winnicott explain the internal mechanisms of resistance.

    Social Issues and Policy Review, Vol. 11, No. 1, 2017, pp. 78--123 The Global Refugee Crisis: Empirical Evidence and Policy Implications for Improving Public Attitudes and Facilitating Refugee Resettlement ∗ Victoria M. Esses University of Western Ontario Leah K. Hamilton Mount Royal University Danielle Gaucher University of Winnipeg The number of refugees across the globe is at an alarming high and is expected to continue to rise for the foreseeable future. As a result, finding durable solutions for refugees has become a major challenge worldwide. The literature reviewed and policy implications discussed in this article are based on the premise that one of the major solutions to the refugee crisis must be refugee resettlement in new host countries. For such a solution to succeed, however, requires relatively favorable attitudes by members of host societies, protection of the well-being of refugees, and effective integration of refugees into new host countries. In this context, we begin by reviewing the literature on determinants of public attitudes toward refugees, the acculturation of refugees in host societies, and factors affecting refugee mental health, all of which are directly relevant to the success of the resettlement process. We then turn our attention to the policy implications of these literatures, and discuss strategies for improving public attitudes toward refugees and refugee resettlement in host countries; for improving the resettlement process to reduce ∗ Correspondence concerning this article should be addressed to Victoria M.

Stories that empower the public. Stories that build a stronger democracy. www.uregina.ca/arts/journalism • [email protected] • 306-585-4420 A beginning, a middle and an end: Canadian foreign reportage examined. It’s a real honour to be here in Regina and especially to give the Minifie lecture. James M. Minifie embodied the best of Canadian foreign journalism. He was an early integrator who filed for both radio and TV and I’m sure would have also filed for online had it existed. The story of my coming to give this lecture is a little bit like the job that we do, a little like doing foreign correspondence. Just like foreign correspondence, every obstacle that could possibly be thrown in my way happened! I felt like I was being tested – the way we are with every single story we file. Even the very last leg of this journey, coming from Toronto just a few hours ago, I barely made it out. It was wet snow and a huge lineup of planes being de- iced. I couldn’t believe we made it out. So, just like every story we file, the object, as painful as it can be, is to make deadline – no matter what. The idea is that an imperfect but accurate and complete story on the air is better than no story.

  • GENERATION ONE: LIVING in TWO WORLDS YV Introduction GENERATION ONE: LIVING in TWO WORLDS YV Video Review
    GENERATION ONE: LIVING IN TWO WORLDS YV Introduction Focus Canadian multiculturalism has become a legally and politically entrenched institution, as well as an identifiable and, for many other countries, an enviable characteristic of Canadian life. But todays Generation One youths are challenging this multicultural ideal as they struggle to secure an identity within Canadian society. This News in Review story profiles the experiences of various Generation Ones and examines their imprint on Canadas cultural fabric. Canadas ethnically diverse population is often referred to as a cultural mosaic. According to Statistics Canada, recent census data identified over 200 ethnic origins and 100 languages spoken in the country. One out of every five persons in Canada was born in another country, with the vast majority of new immigrants settling in Canadas three largest cities: Toronto, Vancouver, and Montreal. Canadas ethno-cultural diversity is expected to further increase, and by 2016, it is estimated that foreign-born youth and Canadian-born youth from immigrant families will make up a quarter of the countrys population. This number will increase to nearly one-half of Canadians by 2031, with the majority of immigrants coming from Asia and the Middle East. Diversity will also continue to grow among “Generation Ones,” who are defined as the first generation born in Canada to immigrant parents. Almost one-half of this demographic group is projected to belong to a visible minoritynearly double the proportion reported in the 2006 census. However, Canadas ideal of multiculturalism is under greater scrutiny as new data and surveys reveal significant challenges facing todays Generation One youths.

We’re getting more and more complaints about CBC programming. Within the past year, the Office of the Ombudsman received 2,155 complaints, communications and expressions of concern, including 1,590 about information programming. This compares with 1,273 complaints about information programming in 2002-03 and 582 complaints in 2001- 02. Much of the increase is the result of orchestrated e-mail campaigns by interest groups. 2. CBC’s information programmers appear more and more willing to acknowledge and address their mistakes. Within the past year programmers admitted they were at fault 77 times. This compares with 53 admissions of fault in 2002-03 and 15 admissions in 2001-02. A new feature of this year’s annual report is a summary of the admissions of fault. It provides a good glimpse of the dialogue that takes place nowadays between programmers and listeners, viewers and users of CBC.ca. 3. CBC’s programmers are responding to the concerns of citizens more promptly than ever. In the past year, on average, programmers at CBC TV News responded to the complaints about their programs in about 12 days.
