BY | PAR MATHIEU CHANTELOIS, TOBY SALTZMAN & de voyage CAROLE ScHINCK DESTINATIONS 27 BEN MULRONEY My favourite place to take a vaca- tion in Canada would be Whistler. One of the reasons I love it so much is because you can really enjoy it all year around. I had one of the best vacations of my life there—and it was in the middle of summer! From hiking to whitewater rafting to the incredible restaurants, I was ourism Whistler / Paul MorrisonWhistler / Paul ourism amazed that the place had so much T life in summertime. And the fact that they’re gearing up for the 2010 Photo: Olympics is great: the amenities are going to get even better, road access will keep improving. It will be the hub for everything exciting out west for the next few years. Without a doubt, Whistler is the place where I would love to spend more time. Spring, summer, fall, and of course winter. I love this place! (M. C.) Ben Mulroney is the host of eTalk Daily and Canadian Idol on CTV. De mon point de vue, le meilleur endroit où prendre des vacances au Canada, c’est Whistler, en Colombie- Britannique. J’aime le fait que les qua- tre saisons y sont aussi belles les unes que les autres. Je me souviens d’un séjour incroyable en plein été : randon- nées à pied, descentes en eau vive, restaurants haut de gamme. La station offre autant de possibilités durant la belle saison qu’en hiver. Et le fait qu’elle se prépare aux Jeux olympiques de 2010 ajoute encore à son attrait : accès routier, logement et activités culturelles et sportives vont continuer à progresser. Cela va être pour quelques années l’en- droit le plus in de tout l’Ouest canadien et, sans aucun doute, celui où j’aime- rais pouvoir passer le plus de temps possible. Au printemps, en été, en automne et, bien sûr, en hiver, j’adore Whistler ! (M. C.) Ben Mulroney est l’animateur de eTalk Daily et de Canadian Idol à CTV. 28 DESTINATIONS TRAVEL TOURISME C T Photo: Courtesy Photo: C RUFUS WAINWRIGHT No question, my favourite Canadian vacation spot is Pas de doute, mon endroit préféré est Montréal.

  • CAPURRI Ryerson University, Canada
    Volume 15, Issue 1, 129-144, 2021 “I Cannot Hide My Anger to Spare You Guilt”: On BLMTO and Canadian Mainstream Media’s Response VALENTINA CAPURRI Ryerson University, Canada ABSTRACT In this paper, I examine Canadian mainstream media’s response to Black Lives Matter Toronto, focusing in particular on two events that occurred in the city in the Summer of 2016 and Winter of 2017. By relying on Critical Race Theory, I argue that a White-dominated press has been unwilling to engage with the message presented by Black activists under the excuse that the tone of the message is overly harsh and threatening to White audiences. After analysing the historical roots of such a claim, I conclude that, in the current climate, there is no space for any dialogue in what remains an oppressor-oppressed relationship across the country, including in Toronto, Canada’s most multicultural city. KEYWORDS racism; white supremacy; critical race theory; Canada The quote in the title is from a keynote presentation delivered by Audre Lorde at the National Women’s Studies Association Conference in Storrs, Connecticut, in June 1981 (Lorde, 2007). In the presentation, Lorde examines how anger is one of Black women’s responses to racism despite the inability and unwillingness of White women, including many female-identified academics attending the conference, to bear witness to that anger. Lorde was pinpointing White women’s refusal to listen under the cover that the tone used to convey the message was excessively harsh and was therefore perceived as threatening. Thirty-nine years later, Black individuals, and Black women in particular, are still faced with similar challenges and with White society’s unwillingness to listen to the message conveyed by their anger, and the excuse is the same: the tone is too loud and intimidating.

    Presseinformation (03/2016) PRESSEMELDUNG „Klick!“ – Kanadas Politiker posieren beim Pride Toronto für Weltoffenheit Das Festival steht 2016 unter dem Motto „Setz dich zu uns!“ Mettmann/Toronto, 3. März 2016 – Pride Toronto, das größte, bunte, lebendige Kunst und Kultur vereinende Pride-Fest Nordamerikas, gab das Motto für das Festival 2016 bekannt und verkündete der Welt „Sit with us - Setz dich zu uns!“ Die Kampagne der homo- und transsexuellen Szene mit ihren zahlreichen Aktivitäten wird erstmals einen ganzen Monat lang dauern und Toronto zum Treffpunkt für Weltoffenheit und Toleranz werden lassen. Breite Unterstützung findet das Festival, das die Vielfältigkeit und das Zusammengehörigkeitsgefühl der kanadischen Gesellschaft zeigen und Menschen aller Art – unabhängig von Alter, Geschlecht, ethnischer Zugehörigkeit oder sexuellen Identität – integrieren soll, schon jetzt in Kanadas Staats- und Regierungsriege: Zum ersten Mal in der Historie wird ein amtierender Staatsminister Kanadas auf der Pride Parade mit marschieren: Justin Trudeau. Begleitet wird er von Ontarios Premierministerin Kathleen Wynne samt Partnerin Jane Rounthewaite sowie Torontos Oberbürgermeister John Tory. Foto-Shooting mit Minister Um die Kraft und Schönheit der facettenreichen kanadischen Gesellschaft zu würdigen, initiierte Pride Toronto ein öffentliches Foto-Shooting für Gemeindemitglieder, Künstler und Stadtoberhäupter, mit dem Ziel, ihre individuelle Persönlichkeit und Gesinnung zu zeigen. Das Foto-Shooting stieß auf eine überwältigende Resonanz. Die Bilder zeigen über 300 Gemeindemitglieder aller Altersklassen, mit den unterschiedlichsten sexuellen Orientierungen, Geschlechts- Identitäten und ethnischen Zugehörigkeiten. Ein Bild der Gesellschaft „Wenn ein Bild mehr sagt als 1000 Worte, dann haben vielleicht 1000 Bilder das Potenzial, ein wahrhaftiges Bild unserer Gesellschaft zu zeichnen - und was für eine wirklich vielgestaltige und wunderschöne Gemeinschaft wir haben!“, sagt Mathieu Chantelois, Executive Director der Pride Toronto.

    NEWSLETTER - VOLUME XVIII - No. I – September 2016 Being part of a community By Mona Greenbaum, director of the LGBT Family Coalition As director of the LGBT Family Coalition, once again at this time of year, I find myself sitting in front of a blank page, with 3 goals in mind: 1) I have to convince you to renew your membership to the LGBT Family Coalition or to become a member for the first time, by letting you know what a great organization the Coalition is. 2) I have to motivate you to pay your membership and hopefully give us a donation to help continue to promote the legal and social recognition of our families. 3) I’m hoping to inspire you to volunteer your skills to help work on important causes that affect our families. Here’s my usual approach: For our older members, I remind you of the battles we’ve already won: obtaining the right to have both parents in our families legally recognized; securing access to fertility clinics and adoption; winning the right to marry; increasing the visibility of our families in schools and other public institutions; etc. The Coalition was at the forefront of all these advances! For newer members, I speak about how the Coalition is pushing for change: having surrogacy legally recognized in Quebec; giving children with trans parents proper birth certificates that reflect who their parents are; gaining back RAMQ coverage of fertility treatments (including preservation of fertility for people who are transitioning); minimizing wait times before DPJ adoptions are finalized; continuing the fight against homophobia and transphobia in schools and social services; and most of all, making sure that the realities of our families are represented in our children’s everyday environment, not as something to be tolerated, but rather as a richness and an asset to the school and to the community.

  • Canadian Television by Jennifer Burwell
    Canadian Television by Jennifer Burwell Encyclopedia Copyright © 2015, glbtq, Inc. Entry Copyright © 2002, glbtq, Inc. Reprinted from http://www.glbtq.com The portrayal of gay, lesbian, bisexual, transgendered, and queer people in English Canadian television programming has been sporadic. There have been several significant appearances of glbtq characters on the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation (CBC), Canada's national public broadcasting system. The recent advent of PrideVision, a digital cable television network with a mandate to air glbtq Canadian content, will certainly lead to an increase not only in the presence of gays and lesbians on television, but also in the number of shows developed for a glbtq audience. Canadian Broadcasting Corporation Perhaps because it is a public broadcaster with a mandate to inform and enlighten as well as entertain, CBC has aired more television programs with glbtq content than Canada's other national network, CTV. CBC's Degrassi Jr. High (1987-1989), part of the youth-centered Degrassi series, dealt with abortion, single parenthood, sex, death, racism, AIDS, feminism, and gay issues as situations that the characters had to work through within the serialized narrative structures, while avoiding the "topic of the week" feel that is endemic to the genre. One episode, for example, featured the pre-adolescent character Caitlin discussing lesbianism with her English teacher, Miss Avery. A spin-off of the Degrassi series, Liberty Street (CBC, 1995-1996), featured Billy Merasty as Nathan Jones, a gay native ex-bicycle courier. The producers of Liberty Street went on to create Riverdale (CBC, 1997-2000), with gay character George Patillo. In early 2003, CBC announced that gay playwright Michel Tremblay will write Quebec's first television show to feature an on-going gay relationship, Le Coeur Découvert.
