  • Meanings of Birdwatchers and Dog Walkers at a Multiple-Use Urban Forest
    Encounters with Difference and Politics of Place: Meanings of Birdwatchers and Dog Walkers at a Multiple-Use Urban Forest by Taryn M. Graham A thesis presented to the University of Waterloo in fulfilment of the thesis requirement for the degree of Master of Arts in Recreation and Leisure Studies Waterloo, Ontario, Canada, 2013 © Taryn M. Graham 2013 1 AUTHOR’S DECLARATION I hereby declare that I am the sole author of this thesis. This is a true copy of the thesis, including any required final revisions, as accepted by my examiners. I understand that my thesis may be made electronically available to the public. ii Abstract With a particular interest in birdwatchers and dog walkers, this case study explored place meanings of users at Westmount Summit Woods, a multiple-use urban forest located just west of downtown Montreal, Quebec, Canada. A document analysis was conducted on the research site, followed by data collected through online questionnaire. A total of 120 users participated in the online questionnaire, of which included birdwatchers (n=44), dog walkers (n=61), and the broader community (n=15). Three themes relating to place meaning were interpreted: (1) Attachment to and Preference for; (2) (Re)connection with Self and Others; and (3) Conflict Between and Within. Findings suggest encounters played key roles in the formation of social identity, capital, and conflict. Questions regarding access to and use of public space, how humans and animals are placed vis-à-vis one another, and ways to build civic culture out of difference were addressed. Following on from these findings, recommendations for outdoor recreation management and future research were offered.

  • Light Blue Cross Sky Photo Simple Church Newsletter
    Catholic Action March 2021 - Newsletter Sharing the Good News A NOTE to Members We hope you are enjoying the community stories about different people in our faith community. Do you have a story to share? Tell us about your parish or maybe a project you are working on. Do you know a good Samaritan? Drop us a line and we will gladly include it in our newsletter. Stay safe and God Bless! Meet Father Scott Two Parishes, Two Languages, One Pastor On September 1, Father Timothy Scott, CSB officially assumed responsibility as pastor of the English-language St. Gabriel’s Catholic Church and of the French-language Église St Charles. Serving as pastor of more than one community comes with its challenges, but this appointment has the added layer of being conducted in two languages. “I had an upcoming funeral that I thought would be in French, but when I checked I realized it was for a member of the English community. When the parishes are sharing the same space and there is one secretary, I need to check in which language the service is to be held. It keeps me on my toes,” he said. The two parishes stand side-by-side in Montreal, Auxiliary Bishop Alain Faubert approached him about serving as pastor of both communities; he was appointed with a four-year mandate. In September, parishioners of St. Gabriel’s were notified that their church would need to close due to structural issues with renovations to be undertaken in the spring. In the meantime, both parishes are celebrating Mass at St-Charles.

Dès les années 1960 et 1970, les résidants du quartier Milton Parc s'opposent à la destruction massive de leur quartier. Plusieurs maisons victoriennes en pierre grise allaient faire place à un vaste projet de rénovation urbaine dont la première partie, et la seule construite, est le complexe La Cité. Appuyés par Héritage Montréal et l'architecte Phyllis Lambert, directrice et fondatrice du Centre Canadien d'Architecture, et avec l'aide financière de la SCHL, les résidants qui militent depuis les années 1960 créent entre 1979 et 1982 le plus important projet de coopératives d'habitation en Amérique du nord, entraînant la rénovation de rangées entières de bâtiments construits au tournant du siècle. Le 23 septembre 1998, Postes Canada émet un jeu de timbres commémoratifs consacrés à l'histoire de l'habitation. Un de ces timbres, représentant les habitations à logements multiples (maisons en rangée), est tiré d'une photo des duplex à deux étages par logement de la Coopérative Milton Parc sur la rue Jeanne-Mance.
