Proud and Strong 2017 and Beyond Rosie MacLennan Olympic Trampoline Gymnast Identity & Citizenship Gordon Pinsent 2 Film Director, Actor, Poet, Playwright Identity & Citizenship The Canadian Icons Project / Canadian Change Conversations celebrate our identity and citizenship. Launched in conjunction with Canada’s 150th Anniversary, these initiatives create a place and space, physical and virtual, for conversations about issues that are shaping our society today and tomorrow. The goal is to reflect on our achievements – but also to deepen engagement, inspire positive action, and promote change and innovation that make our communities and nation even stronger and more sustainable. 63 Identity & Citizenship The Canadian Icons Project is a photographic and multimedia showcase of 150 iconic Canadians whose contributions have been felt across Canada and around the world, and who chronicle our nation’s diversity, creativity and achievements. The Canadian Change Conversations creates a platform to engage the Icons and Canadians at large in a series of narratives and demonstration projects designed to inform, challenge and change how we see our communities, our nation, our world and ourselves. Harnessing the power of Canadian Icons who serve to inspire, motivate and lead social change; exploring voices of citizens who help shape and move our communities; and supporting experimental 'makerspaces' to demonstrate responses and potential, the Canadian Icons Project / Canadian Change Conversations together encourage critical conversations designed to activate citizenship aimed at positive social change and innovation. 64 Don Dixon Creator, Director & Photographer of the Canadian Icons Project "Five years ago, with the help of some of Canada’s most talented communications and media industry experts, I began my journey – to photograph and interview Canada’s most accomplished living icons, in celebration of Canada's Sesquicentennial. While I was engaging these leaders, dreamers and visionaries, I quickly realized how important it was to share their unique stories, passions and appetite for change with the rest of Canada. This gave birth to the idea of an inclusive, nation-wide conversation to not only reflect on and celebrate our achievements, but also engage Canadians about the goals we strive for as a nation. I cannot think of a better time to launch such a positive and energizing dialogue, or a better way to honour the contributions of iconic Canadians from coast to coast to coast." 5 Table of Contents Table of Contents Advisors and Partners 7 Project Elements 10 Photographed to Date 15 Achievements to Date 19 Sponsorship Opportunity 21 Project Team 23 Contact Information 25 6 Advisors and Partners Margaret Atwood 7 Author Friends and Advisors Friends & Advisors: • George Anthony, Creative Consultant, CBC • Margaret Atwood, Poet, Novelist, Literary Critic, Essayist & Environmental Activist • The Right Honourable Adrienne Clarkson, 26th Governor General of Canada, Journalist, Stateswoman, & Co-founder, Institute for Canadian Citizenship • Don Lewtas, Managing Director, ONEX Corporation • Darrell MacMullin, CEO, BitGold, former managing director of PayPal Canada • The Right Honourable Paul Martin, 21st Prime Minister of Canada, Global Diplomat • Art Miki, Canadian Race Relations Founding Director • Ross Porter, President and CEO, Jazz FM91 • J.

It was then I decided to meet this new challenge head on and not only overcome my disability, but conquer it in such a way that I could never look back and say it disabled me. But I soon realized that that would only be half my quest, for as I went through the 16 months of the physically and emotionally draining ordeal of chemotherapy, I was rudely awakened by the feelings that surrounded and coursed through the cancer clinic. There were faces with the brave smiles and the ones who had given up smiling. There were feelings of hopeful denial and the feelings of despair. My quest would not be a selfish one. I could not leave knowing these faces and feelings would still exist, even though I would be set free from mine. Somewhere the hurting must stop…and I was determined to take myself to the limit for this cause. From the beginning the going was extremely difficult, and I was facing chronic ailments foreign to runners with two legs in addition to the common physical strains felt by all dedicated athletes. But these problems are now behind me, as I have either out- persisted or learned to deal with them. I feel strong not only physically, but more important, emotionally.

    West Allegheny School District 8th Grade ELA Summer Academic Pre-Work Promoting Literacy Today a Reader, Tomorrow a Leader Summer of 2021 Dear Parents, Guardians, and Students Entering 8th Grade, Summer is a wonderful time for families to participate in the education of their children. During the summer months many students experience a summer regression of basic reading and math skills. While this is concerning, there is an easy way to minimize the regression, by participating in the Summer Academic Pre- Work Program! Similar to our golf swings or level of fitness, academic skills regress when not practiced. Research suggests that the average learning regression during the summer months for students in reading equates to two months of instruction (Entwisle, Alexander, & Olson 2001; Cooper, H., Nye, B, et al, 1996). The Summer Academic Pre-Work Learning Program is designed to help your child maintain and possibly increase his/her academic skills through practice of important skills. Recommendations for the Summer Academic Pre-Work Program were made through the collaboration of a committee of teachers, superintendent’s parent advisory committee, and administrators. Please engage your child in the outlined academic activities. When your child returns to school in the fall, please send the completed ELA Summer Academic Pre-Work with your child so he/she can receive our congratulations and a reward for completing the program in addition to earning points toward his/her first quarter ELA grade. Thank you for participating in the Summer Academic Pre-Work Learning Program. WAMS ELA Summer Academic Pre-Work highlights are as follows: ➢ An incentive is included for turning in ELA assignments on the first day of school.

    Dr. Roberta Bondar the First Canadian Female Astronaut, Physician, Scientist and Photographer, Roberta Bondar Was Aboard The

    Dr. Roberta Bondar The first Canadian female astronaut, physician, scientist and photographer, Roberta Bondar was aboard the space shuttle Discovery for its January 1992 mission, realizing a personal dream and capturing the imagination of millions. Upon returning to Earth, Bondar wrote Touching the Earth , a book in which she speaks of her space experience and her love of the planet. For almost 20 years, Dr. Bondar has been on the scientific forefront in how the brain adapts to unfamiliar environments. She headed an international team at NASA for over a decade that researched the connections between astronauts recovering from the microgravity of space and neurological illnesses here on Earth, such as stroke and Parkinson’s disease. Her techniques have been used in clinical studies at Harvard Medical School and the University of New Mexico. Dr. Bondar participated in the National Gallery of Canada’s landmark exhibition, “Science and Photography: Beauty of Another Order”, and she photographed all of Canada’s national parks for a major book entitled Passionate Vision: Discovering Canada’s National Parks , published by Douglas & McIntyre. Her book Canada: Landscape of Dreams is now in its second printing. Dr. Bondar now applies her insights and lessons learned from the unpredictable environment of space to today’s constantly changing business environment. She created HyperThink™, a perspective and process that helps companies make adaptive decisions when entering uncharted territory. Among her numerous distinctions, Dr. Bondar has been honoured as a Fellow of the Royal Society of Canada, inducted into the Canadian Medical Hall of Fame for her pioneering research in space medicine, named by TIME magazine as one of North America’s Best Explorers and recognized with the Order of Canada and the NASA Space Medal.
