Toronto, Canada 4 Foreword There must be a first time for everything—and this is it in the matter of a directory of information about the Canadian motion picture industry and the roads leading to it. We hope this Year Book will reflect the status of our industry in the national life. And we do have a status. There are some things in this first edition which will not be repeated in those to follow, such as the history of the Canadian motion picture industry. Per¬ haps for that reason this one will be kept even after the next one comes out. I want to thank the many who offered to help in any way they could when they heard of our intention —and those who did. The prospect of such a book as this created mild excitement among many persons who are proud of their industry. I would like also to note that this task was undertaken at the suggestion of N. A. (Nat) Taylor—a suggestion which grew out of his interest in things Canadian. We hope to get the next Year Book out consider¬ ably earlier, now that we have the benefit of trial and error, and we hope that the improvement will surprise even us.

  • About This Issue

    About This Issue

    ABOUT THIS ISSUE SCHOOL SCHMOOL WAS CREATED IN TIOHTIÀ:KE ("MONTREAL"), UNCEDED INDIGENOUS KANIEN'KEHA:KA (MOHAWK) TERRITORY, WHICH HAS HISTORICALLY BEEN A MEETING AND LIVING SPACE FOR HAUDENOSAUNEE, ABÉNAKI, AND ALGONQUIN PEOPLE. WE ALSO RECOGNIZE THE CONTINUED PRESENCE OF MÉTIS, INNU, AND INUIT FOLK ON THIS LAND. School Schmool is your radical guide to your often unradical school. In 1994, the first editors wrote, “When we say ‘school schmool’ we don’t mean to be dismissive. What we mean is that there are a lot of things going on at university, and school is only one of them.” Though it began as a bi-annual publication that brought together group profiles, articles, and practical resources for social justice, School Schmool is now an ad-free, corporate-free, agenda-with-an-agenda, connecting the McGill, Concordia, and greater Tioh’tia:ke communities.We hope to bridge (and break) the gap between academia and issues outside the classroom by providing a guidebook where students can find information on resources and initiatives taking place in their communities. We strive to feature content that presents radical, anti-oppressive, and intersectional perspectives on current issues, especially works by Queer and/or Trans people, Black and/or Indigenous people, and other people of colour. The theme for this year’s edition is THE TANGIBLE. Over the past few years, it's often felt like everyone was particularly exhausted. Instead of just talking about how shitty things sometimes are, we wanted to offer possibilities for concrete actions, and real ideas for creating radical communities. Sometimes engagement can mean learning how to occupy the McGill administration building (p.

    Rapid Transit in Toronto Levyrapidtransit.Ca TABLE of CONTENTS

    The Neptis Foundation has collaborated with Edward J. Levy to publish this history of rapid transit proposals for the City of Toronto. Given Neptis’s focus on regional issues, we have supported Levy’s work because it demon- strates clearly that regional rapid transit cannot function eff ectively without a well-designed network at the core of the region. Toronto does not yet have such a network, as you will discover through the maps and historical photographs in this interactive web-book. We hope the material will contribute to ongoing debates on the need to create such a network. This web-book would not been produced without the vital eff orts of Philippa Campsie and Brent Gilliard, who have worked with Mr. Levy over two years to organize, edit, and present the volumes of text and illustrations. 1 Rapid Transit in Toronto levyrapidtransit.ca TABLE OF CONTENTS 6 INTRODUCTION 7 About this Book 9 Edward J.

    A Montreal Massacre Memorial and Legacy, by Wendy C

    Preface 2020 The following document, A Montreal Massacre Memorial and Legacy, by Wendy C. Gentleman is supplementary material for the article in the CSME bulletin for Dec, 2020. It is intended for educational purposes. We have strived to cite all sources, and this version of the document has removed several graphics in an effort to respect copyright regulations. Preface 2014 What follows is a document about the Montreal Massacre and some of its legacy, which is based on the presentation given by Dr. Wendy Gentleman at the December 6, 2014 memorial ceremony held by the Dalhousie Undergraduate Engineering Society and the Dalhousie Women in Engineering Society. Dr. Gentleman is an Associate Professor in Dalhousie's Department of Engineering Mathematics. In 1989, at the time of the massacre, she was in Montreal in the first year of her undergraduate studies in Mechanical Engineering at McGill University. This was the fourth such ceremony at which Dr. Gentleman spoke about the massacre, her experiences as a woman in engineering, and her views on how we can honour the victims. Dr. Gentleman speaks at December 6 memorial ceremonies because it has personal significance for her, and because she recognizes its broader significance for other engineers, women, and Canadians. Dr. Gentleman also recognizes that many among our younger generations do not know about the Montreal Massacre, let alone why they should care. So another reason that Dr. Gentleman speaks at December 6 ceremonies is to educate people about our relevant history; she wants people to appreciate why the Montreal Massacre matters to them, why they should learn, and why they should never forget.

While this phenomenon has enjoyed a wide coverage in the media, there is only a limited amount of scholarly research available on the subject. Furthermore, research on Canadian school shootings is practically inexistent. Focusing on the Dawson school shooting as a case study, this thesis hypothesizes that the repetitive occurrences of school shootings reveal a deeper social malaise regarding masculinity in North America.

    July 22, 196543 Toronto

    Volume 24, Number 14 July 22, 196543 Toronto British American Oil Company's Musical Showcase, a half-hour weekly television quiz - and -music program, goes national August 1. Twenty-two Western -Canadian stations are being added to the 31 -strong eastern roster. Other switches, to more elaborate production and all -live prize displays instead of graph- ics, will follow. So will a change to a paid quiz panel. (B-A wants more money fed into customer prizes - less to the on -air panel participants). The oil company's April dealer letter is reported to credit Showcase with pulling close to a million mail entries and in- creasing the rate of B -A credit card applica- tions by 300 per cent since first airing March 28. In the photo (1. to r.) are: Phil Lauson, Foster Advertising (Montreal); Jack Neuss, retail programs director for B -A (and creator of Showcase); George LaFlêche, emcee and singing star; Denny Vaughn, musical director; Peter Lussier, director -producer, and Bob McNicol, Foster Advertising (Toronto). This is baseball? That's what CFCB Radio in Cornerbrook, Newfoundland, and the local CBC Radio employees seem to think. At least they recently played a three -inning grudge match in their outlandish outfits and called it softball - even agreed on a 2-2 tie score once the shenanigans were over. It was all in a good cause - for the local Royal Canadian Legion. Price of admission to the game was set at one forget-me-not (the flower of remem- brance) per customer. Evidently the Legion's `lower sales were helped considerably.
