  • Private Broadcasting and the Path to Radio Broadcasting Policy in Canada
    Media and Communication (ISSN: 2183–2439) 2018, Volume 6, Issue 1, Pages 13–20 DOI: 10.17645/mac.v6i1.1219 Article Private Broadcasting and the Path to Radio Broadcasting Policy in Canada Anne Frances MacLennan Department of Communication Studies, York University, Toronto, M3J 1P3, Canada; E-Mail: [email protected] Submitted: 6 October 2017 | Accepted: 6 December 2017 | Published: 9 February 2018 Abstract The largely unregulated early years of Canadian radio were vital to development of broadcasting policy. The Report of the Royal Commission on Radio Broadcasting in 1929 and American broadcasting both changed the direction of Canadian broadcasting, but were mitigated by the early, largely unregulated years. Broadcasters operated initially as small, indepen- dent, and local broadcasters, then, national networks developed in stages during the 1920s and 1930s. The late adoption of radio broadcasting policy to build a national network in Canada allowed other practices to take root in the wake of other examples, in particular, American commercial broadcasting. By 1929 when the Aird Report recommended a national net- work, the potential impact of the report was shaped by the path of early broadcasting and the shifts forced on Canada by American broadcasting and policy. Eventually Canada forged its own course that pulled in both directions, permitting both private commercial networks and public national networks.

  • Housing First in Canada
    Calgary ALBERTA Calgary Homeless Foundation Key Messages • Provides a detailed look at “systems-response” and integrated services. • Has one of the longest histories in Canada of supporting housing first programs. • As a foundation it supports a number of Housing First programs but doesn’t provide direct service delivery. • Has some of the most robust data on successes due to the length of history and foresight. • Has expanded Housing First to include more than just people experiencing chronic or episodic homelessness. Introduction In 1994, when the City of Calgary began counting the numbers of people experiencing homelessness living in shelters or on its streets, there were approximately 400 homeless people. Subsequent years saw an explosive growth of homelessness the biggest in Canada at the time, with 3,500 people identified as experiencing homelessness by 2006 (Laird, 2007). algary, like many communities across Canada, had the number of homeless individuals in Calgary between 2008 Chist orically responded to the homelessness crisis through and 2012 (ibid.), reversing a 30% biennial growth trend. a patchwork of community-based emergency services and supports. There was no ‘system’, but rather an ad-hoc collection In this case study, we examine the application of Housing First of service providers, funded by all levels of government as part of the response to homelessness in Calgary. What makes and charitable donations. As a community, the response to this example compelling is: homelessness was led first by the Calgary Committee to End Homelessness and then by the Calgary Homeless Foundation a) How Housing First was incorporated as a (CHF). The latter organization became the central force in philosophy that underpins the community creating a shift towards the adoption of Housing First strategies response to homelessness; in the city.

  • Success Indicator Baseline Report
    LIVING A CREATIVE LIFE AN ARTS DEVELOPMENT STRATEGY FOR CALGARY Success Indicator Baseline Report 2019 UPDATE From the original report: When Calgary was designated a Cultural Capital of Canada in 2012, winning the Cultural Capital bid involved a renewed commitment to developing a long-term strategy for the arts in Calgary. Calgary Arts Development began to lead the arts plan process that has now become Living a Creative Life: an arts development strategy for Calgary. Engaging a wide group of stakeholders, the arts plan process took place from April 2012 to December 2013 and involved consultations with Calgarians who ranged from interested citizens, community groups, educators, and civic and provincial partners, to arts administrators from organizations of all sizes, and independent artists of all disciplines. These conversations included over 1,000 voices and occurred at dialogue sessions, summits, open houses and discipline-specific meetings, as well as at four full-day sessions spent with the 36 members of the citizens’ reference panel, who were randomly selected from across the city. After many hours of discussion, a shared vision and five major focus areas for the arts in Calgary emerged. The five focus areas defined are: • Creative Communities • Centre City Arts District • Arts Incubation • Artistic Exchange • Youth & Education Published in March 2014, LIVING A CREATIVE LIFE is an arts development strategy for Calgary, by Calgarians. As of November 2019, it has attracted over 170 signatories who are contributing to one or more of the strategy’s five major focus areas. The complete strategy is available at calgaryartsdevelopment.com/living-a-creative-life.

Wozny Page 1 of 125 Media Art Collection Research Study – Final Report Executive Summary The Media Art Collection Research Study addresses the current state of independent media art collections in Alberta by contextualizing them within a Canadian and an international framework. Acquisition practices and policies from the archival community have been juxtaposed against those of exhibitors and distributors from within the independent media arts sector and the wider cultural community of galleries, cinémathèques and museums, in order to properly situate Alberta conventions. The resulting recommendations have been directed at contemporary media art practitioners, those who manage media art collections, those who foster or fund the growth and development of the independent media arts community, and those who seek to provide ongoing access to the historical development and legacy of independent media art practices within Alberta.
