Leading theologians presented the First World War as the purifying agent that would cleanse Canada and the world from evil influences. All hope was put upon the citizen soldier, who became the embodiment of Christ in the ultimate fight between good and evil.

  • Winnipeg's Housing Crisis and The
    Class, Capitalism, and Construction: Winnipeg’s Housing Crisis and the Debate over Public Housing, 1934–1939 STEFAN EPP* The collapse of the construction industry during the 1930s resulted in a housing crisis of unprecedented proportions in cities throughout Canada. Winnipeg faced a particularly difficult situation. Beginning in 1934, the city undertook several endeavours to remedy the problem, all of which failed. While the shortcomings of federal housing programmes and reluctant federal and provincial governments were partly to blame for the failure of these local efforts, municipal debates on the subject of housing reveal that reform was also stalled by opposition from the local business elite, whose members disliked competition in the rental market. L’effondrement de l’industrie de la construction dans les anne´es 1930 a provoque´ une crise sans pre´ce´dent du logement dans les villes du Canada. La situation e´tait particulie`rement difficile a` Winnipeg. En 1934, la ville a commence´ a` prendre des mesures pour corriger le proble`me : toutes ont e´choue´. Si les faiblesses des pro- grammes fe´de´raux de logement et la re´ticence des gouvernements fe´de´ral et provin- cial ont contribue´ partiellement a` l’e´chec de ces efforts locaux, les de´bats municipaux sur la question du logement re´ve`lent que la re´forme s’est e´galement heurte´ea` l’opposition de l’e´lite locale du milieu des affaires, dont les membres n’aimaient pas la concurrence sur le marche´ locatif. DURING THE 1930s, Canadian cities struggled to cope with a significant housing shortage.

North America’s second general strike, similar in character to the SeattLe strike, deVeLoped in Winnipeg, Manitoba on May 15, 1919. Winnipeg, Located on the Canadian prairies, was then a city of 160,000 peopLe. Newspapers around the worLd filLed their pages with exaggerated stories of the Winnipeg GeneraL Strike, depicting a city in siege and streets rampant with bLoodshed. And when the goVernment made arrests, they described the strike Leaders as conspirators, BoLsheViks, and reVoLutionaries. Was this a second attempt at Communist reVoLution in North America?

  • The Church As Employer: Ideology and Ecclesial Practice During Labour Conflict
    The Church as Employer: Ideology and Ecclesial Practice during Labour Conflict OSCAR COLE-ARNAL Christian denominations within twentieth-century Canadian history, and in the United States, have produced numerous statements on social justice. Indeed, some of these reflect rather radical traditions. As well, one can readily find books which contain the more prominent of these documents, often with thoughtful commentary and analysis. By way of one example, Gregory Baum, Canada’s most noted Catholic theologian, has done significant work through his commentaries on social Catholic encyclicals and justice promulgations by Canadian and Québec bishops.1 These statements provide an invaluable resource for analyzing where particular Christian denominations stand officially in terms of rhetoric and public principles. However, they by no means provide sufficient data on how effectively or passionately these churches put principle into practice. Of course, there are different ways to get at this issue of comparing stated values and institutional practice, and this paper proposes to look at two case studies in Canadian history (one Protestant and one Roman Catholic) around the question of how well the church acts as an employer in relation to its stated justice values. Although there is no attempt to be exhaustive here, I will suggest that the weight which churches give to their stated principles can be assessed most clearly by how well they practice these convictions. Historical Papers 1998: Canadian Society of Church History 18 The Church as Employer Case 1: Social Gospel Values and the Toronto Printers’ Strike (1921) Towards the end of the Great War the two major social gospel churches promulgated statements with clear, even radical, social justice dimensions.

Radical social movements and countercultures challenged the conservatism of the preceding decade, rejected traditional forms of politics, and demanded an alternative based on the principles of social justice, individual freedom and an end to oppression on all fronts. Yet in Canada a unique political movement emerged which embraced these principles but proposed that New Left social movements – the student and anti-war movements, the women’s liberation movement and Canadian nationalists – could bring about radical political change not only through street protests and sit-ins, but also through participation in electoral politics.

  • Deaf Education, the Politics of Humanitarianism, and State Formation in Saskatchewan and Alberta, 1880-1931
    Deaf Education, the Politics of Humanitarianism, and State Formation in Saskatchewan and Alberta, 1880-1931 by Sandy Barron A thesis submitted to the Faculty of Graduate and Postdoctoral Affairs in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in History Carleton University Ottawa, Ontario © 2021 Sandy Barron Abstract This study traces the development of deaf education in Alberta and Saskatchewan between 1880 and 1931 and its corresponding effects on state formation in Western Canada. Through this topic, it identifies a rise of deaf politics in the wake of the First World War that achieved notable successes in Saskatchewan in the interwar period. A new term for discussing oppressive attitudes against deaf communities from hearing people, humanitarianism, is proposed and explored. These provinces took decades to develop state institutions that were meant to ensure “productive” and “independent” futures for deaf children in the burgeoning nineteenth-century liberal colonial order on the Prairies. In doing so, they began to define their own provincial boundaries, both in the sense of geography and responsibility. They also began to define theoretical boundaries between deafness and hearing, intellectual ability and disability, as well as rights and humanitarian assistance. The development of deaf education in Alberta and Saskatchewan, I argue, pushed emergent provinces to accept the rights of deaf youth to education, though this process was uneven and did not represent a straight teleological arch.
