Canadian Federation of Students Federation
'. c Dear Members, Under the Bylaws of the Federation, the National Executive is required to submit a written report to each national general meeting accounting for its activities and the activities of the Federation since the previous national general meeting. Amongst other.things, the Bylaws state that the Report is to clearly delineate "the disposition of all directives given the National Executive by the plenary of the previous general meeting." Unfortunately, due to a variety of factors and pressures, the National Executive did not have an opportunity to compile information on all of the previous general meeting's directives prior to the deadline for producing and translating the Report. On behalf of the National Executive, I apologize for this ommission. Nevertheless, I believe this Report provides a satisfactory overview of the Federation's activity since the previous general meeting. ~ojtruIY'i ~I/{~W lff}u~/l Michael Manci elli National Deputy Chairperson - ------- ----_ ... ------------ 1. CAMPAIGNS At the previous national general meeting, members called for a number of campaign initiatives. Campaign Against Federal Funding Cuts The May 1995 national general meeting resolved that an "On to Ottawa' trek be held. Since then, the National Executive has made a number of efforts to put things in progress. The date to launch the Trek has been chosen as May 1. A coordinated effort will be made to organize students and our supporters to make their way to Ottawa from then until the 8, when a week long of activities will begin. For those who cannot make the trip, local and regional actions will take place. -

Popular Trials/Criminal Fictions/Celebrity Feminism and the Bernardo/Homolka Case by Mehera Rose San Roque B.A., The University of Sydney, 1991 LL.B., The University of Sydney, 1995 A THESIS SUBMITTED IN PARTIAL FULFILMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF MASTER' OF LAWS in THE FACULTY OF GRADUATE STUDIES (Faculty of Law) We accept this thesis as conforming to the required standard THE UNIVERSITY OF BRITISH COLUMBIA April 1999 © Mehera Rose San Roque, 1999 In presenting this thesis in partial fulfilment of the requirements for an advanced degree at the University of British Columbia, I agree that the Library shall make it freely available for reference and study. I further agree that permission for extensive copying of this thesis for scholarly purposes may be granted by the head of my department or by his or her representatives.

Department of *J The University of British Columbia Vancouver, Canada Date 2.6 lA/U^ DE-6 (2/88) Abstract This thesis examines representations of a Canadian criminal case, the Bernardo/Homolka case. I argue that the Bernardo/Homolka case constitutes what Robert Hariman has termed a "popular trial"; a trial or case that provides "the impetus and the forum for major public debates" and generates discussion extending beyond the immediate court proceedings, to broader issues concerning the law and the legal system. As a 'popular trial', or as what Nancy Fraser terms a moment of "hyperpublicity", the Bernardo/Homolka case provides a means of understanding mechanisms of public opinion making and broader relations of inequality. -

With the rise of mass media, such offenders also began sending verbal communications to journalists and the authorities. Unsurprisingly, the 21st century has seen alienated killers promote their violent actions and homicidal identities through online communications: from VLOGs to manifestos, even videos depicting murder and corpse mutilation. -
War on the Air: CBC-TV and Canada's Military, 1952-1992 by Mallory
War on the Air: CBC-TV and Canada’s Military, 19521992 by Mallory Schwartz Thesis submitted to the Faculty of Graduate and Postdoctoral Studies in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the Doctorate in Philosophy degree in History Department of History Faculty of Arts University of Ottawa © Mallory Schwartz, Ottawa, Canada, 2014 ii Abstract War on the Air: CBC-TV and Canada‘s Military, 19521992 Author: Mallory Schwartz Supervisor: Jeffrey A. Keshen From the earliest days of English-language Canadian Broadcasting Corporation television (CBC-TV), the military has been regularly featured on the news, public affairs, documentary, and drama programs. Little has been done to study these programs, despite calls for more research and many decades of work on the methods for the historical analysis of television. In addressing this gap, this thesis explores: how media representations of the military on CBC-TV (commemorative, history, public affairs and news programs) changed over time; what accounted for those changes; what they revealed about CBC-TV; and what they suggested about the way the military and its relationship with CBC-TV evolved. Through a material culture analysis of 245 programs/series about the Canadian military, veterans and defence issues that aired on CBC-TV over a 40-year period, beginning with its establishment in 1952, this thesis argues that the conditions surrounding each production were affected by a variety of factors, namely: (1) technology; (2) foreign broadcasters; (3) foreign sources of news; (4) the influence -

Executive Summary This Report analyzes the tension between victim privacy and the open court principle, and especially in the context of sexual assault proceedings. It explains that the open court principle is one of the most highly prized values in t he Anglo-Canadian common law tradition. Not only has the jurisprudence under the Charter of Rights and Freedoms reinforced this value, it has set more onerous requirements for exceptions to the open court principle to meet. -
