  • “To Tend Goal for the Greatest Junior Team Ever” – Ted Tucker, Former
    “To tend goal for the greatest junior team ever” – Ted Tucker, former California Golden Seals and Montreal Junior Canadiens goalie by Nathaniel Oliver - published on August 30, 2016 Three of them won the Stanley Cup. One is in the Hockey Hall of Fame. Arguably three more should be. Six were NHL All-Star selections. Each one of them played professional hockey, whether it was in the NHL, WHA, or in the minors – they all made it to the pro level. And I am fortunate enough to have one of the two goaltenders for the 1968-69 Montreal Junior Canadiens – the team still widely considered the greatest junior hockey team of all time – to be sharing his story with me. Edward (Ted) William Tucker was born May 7th, 1949 in Fort William, Ontario. From his earliest moments of playing street hockey or shinny, Ted Tucker wanted to be a goaltender. Beginning to play organized hockey at the age of nine, there was minimal opportunity to start the game at a younger age. “At the time that I started playing hockey, there were no Tom Thumb, Mites, or Squirts programs in my hometown. There was a small ad in our local newspaper from the Elks organization, looking for players and asking which position you preferred to play. I asked my parents if I could sign up, and right from the get-go I wanted to be a goalie”. As a youngster, Tucker’s play between the pipes would take some time to develop, though improvement took place each year as he played.

À ville unique, projet unique Métropole culturelle et ville UNESCO de design, Montréal mise sur sa vitalité et sa créativité pour favoriser sa croissance et se définir à l’échelle internationale. Avec le Quartier des spectacles, la Ville de Montréal réalise l’un des plus importants projets de réaména- gement urbain de la dernière décennie. Inspirée par la vision du milieu culturel, l’administration municipale a entrepris la revitalisation d’un secteur névralgique du centre-ville, qui présentait depuis de nombreuses années un caractère déstructuré. La Ville a mis sur pied une structure de gouvernance particulière afin de soutenir le déploiement du projet en misant sur une concertation étroite avec les parties prenantes du milieu : les organismes culturels, les grands proprié- taires immobiliers, les commerçants, les institutions publiques et d’enseignement ainsi que les résidents. Après s’être assurée de la participation financière du gouvernement du Canada et du gouvernement du Québec, la Ville a également soutenu et mandaté le milieu déjà activement engagé au sein du Partenariat du Quartier des spectacles, organisme sans but lucratif, pour prendre en charge plusieurs activités de promotion, d’animation et de gestion du Quartier. Portés par cet élan, les partenaires s’attachent à consolider, à mettre en valeur et à développer la vocation culturelle du Quartier et à permettre aux organismes présents sur le territoire de demeurer au centre-ville.

It is located in a diversified area that borders institutional, residential and retail uses. This concentration of cultural activity is a major asset for the vitality of the area and Montréal’s profile. However, this poses various constraints on residential development projects and the design of public spaces. The overall quality of the Quartier des spectacles is diminished by the presence of a number of vacant or parking lots. The development of these lots, especially those on Sainte-Catherine Street, would give the Quartier des spectacles a coherence that it currently lacks. However, this development must take into consideration the requirements of outdoor events and reserve open space for public purposes.

  • Representations of Race and Italian-Ness in Canada's Printed Media Kr
    CAN ITALIAN-CANADIANS HAVE THEIR CANNOLI AND EAT IT TOO? REPRESENTATIONS OF RACE AND ITALIAN-NESS IN CANADA’S PRINTED MEDIA KRYSTA PANDOLFI A DISSERTATION SUBMITTED TO THE FACULTY OF GRADUATE STUDIES IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY GRADUATE PROGRAM IN EDUCATION YORK UNIVERSITY TORONTO, ONTARIO March 2018 © Krysta Pandolfi, 2018 Abstract In 2009, Dina Pugliese, co-host of a popular daily television show in Toronto, stated in an interview that she was hesitant to pursue an on-camera career because she worried that she was “too spicy-Italian.” Her words speak to long-standing stereotypes of Italians, developed out of eighteenth and nineteenth century representations of Italy. Clearly, hers is not an identity that has been uncomplicatedly subsumed into Whiteness. Stereotypes borrowed from Europe mark Italian-Canadians, who mostly come from Southern Italy, and who were seen (both inside and outside of Europe) as ‘swarthy’, ‘hot-blooded’ and ‘short-tempered.’ In this dissertation, I examine the concept of Italian-ness in two culturally specific Italian- Canadian magazines, Panoram Italia and Accenti. Thematic data was collected to explore how the magazines construct the image of the Italian-Canadian in their editorial discourses and how this discourse analysis may serve to reveal existing racialized power relations. I identify parallels between Italy as Europe’s south and the Italian-Canadian community, and the ways they serve to function as a filter to understanding Italian-Canadian migration and ongoing concepts of difference within Canada. Furthermore, I explore how the magazine editorial discourses strove to define the interplay between Italian-ness within Canada’s ethno-racial categorizations.
