When a local Radio station announcer's voice reaches his listeners as they tune in his programs - news, chatter, music, - day after day, year after year, it's the voice of an old friend. They see him in church, at the movies and at social affairs. Some of them went to school with him. Others remember his erstwhile predilection for their cookie jars. And when he tells them about your products, it isn't a high-pressure "pitch". It's just the voice of a friend, offering advice to his neighbors on what and where to buy. So when you advertise, go Radio; and when you go Radio go local. Zadia Dcucaiatt SUITE 404 200 ST. CLAIR AVE.

  • 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.

  • Here's Your NTCI 2011 Newsletter
    Here’s Your NTCI 2011 Newsletter — But We Need Your Help To Go GREEN! 100 Years of Red & Grey Each year the NTCI Foundation spends over $4,000 on postage for mailing the attached newsletter to the 8,000 alumni in our database — money which could otherwise be used for student awards and grants to support extracurricular activities. Last year we asked you, our readers, to email us your email addresses and your agreement to receive future issues of the newsletter by email. Many of you responded but there are still almost 4,000 alumni in our database for whom we have no email addresses. This year we have transmitted copies to the 4,300 alumni whose email addresses we have by emailing instructions to download it from the Foundation’s website at www.ntcifoundation.ca. We intend to move almost entirely to email distribution, except we will continue to mail the newsletter by Canada Post to those who explicitly request it. This year (2011) for the last time we are also sending it by Canada Post to alumni who haven’t yet responded and for whom we have no email addresses. Our move to email will help use the Foundation’s limited resources more effectively and will also be more environmentally friendly. So, starting in May 2012, newsletters will be sent by email only unless you explicitly request a paper copy. To do this, please inform us by email or check the appropriate box on the tear-off sheet below and mail it (along with any other relevant response forms from the newsletter) to NTCI Foundation, 17 Broadway Avenue, Toronto, Ontario M4P 1T7 by July 31, 2011.

    Liberalism, Social Democracy, and Tom Kent Kenneth C. Dewar Journal of Canadian Studies/Revue d'études canadiennes, Volume 53, Number/numéro 1, Winter/hiver 2019, pp. 178-196 (Article) Published by University of Toronto Press For additional information about this article https://muse.jhu.edu/article/719555 Access provided by Mount Saint Vincent University (19 Mar 2019 13:29 GMT) Journal of Canadian Studies • Revue d’études canadiennes Liberalism, Social Democracy, and Tom Kent KENNETH C. DEWAR Abstract: This article argues that the lines separating different modes of thought on the centre-left of the political spectrum—liberalism, social democracy, and socialism, broadly speaking—are permeable, and that they share many features in common. The example of Tom Kent illustrates the argument. A leading adviser to Lester B. Pearson and the Liberal Party from the late 1950s to the early 1970s, Kent argued for expanding social security in a way that had a number of affinities with social democracy. In his paper for the Study Conference on National Problems in 1960, where he set out his philosophy of social security, and in his actions as an adviser to the Pearson government, he supported social assis- tance, universal contributory pensions, and national, comprehensive medical insurance. In close asso- ciation with his philosophy, he also believed that political parties were instruments of policy-making. Keywords: political ideas, Canada, twentieth century, liberalism, social democracy Résumé : Cet article soutient que les lignes séparant les différents modes de pensée du centre gauche de l’éventail politique — libéralisme, social-démocratie et socialisme, généralement parlant — sont perméables et qu’ils partagent de nombreuses caractéristiques.

    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.

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.
