Acknowledgements The XVIth Symposium of the Atlantic Provinces Linguistic Association was organized with the help of the Social Sciences and Humanities Research Council of Canada through its financial support and in collaboration with the offices of the French Consulate General in Moncton and Halifax. On the occasion of the publication of the Symposium's Proceedings the Centre de recherche en linguistique appliquée (CRLA) de VUniversité de Moncton would like to extend its gratitude to these institutions. Nous avons été très honorés que l'Association de linguistique des Provinces atlantiques (ALPA) confie au Centre de recherche en linguistique appliquée (CRLA) de rUniversité de Moncton rorganisation de son XVIe colloque annuel ainsi que la publication des Actes qui rassemblent la plupart des communications qui y ont été présentées. Nous remercions tous les membres et amis de l'ALPA qui ont tenu à nous assurer de leur présence à l'occasion de cette rencontre. Nous sommes tout particulièrement reconnaissants à Henriette Walter de rUniversité de Haute-Bretagne, à William Labov de l'Université de Pennsylvanie et à Pierre-Étienne Laporte, président du Conseil de la langue française du gouvernement du Québec d'avoir si aimablement accepté notre invitation. La qualité remarquable des conférences qu'ils ont prononcées et leur présence parmi nous ont très certainement contribué au succès de ce colloque. 1/objectif de cette rencontre était non seulement de partager les résultats de nos recherches sur des sujets très variés mais aussi de faire le point sur la question des rapports entre deux disciplines connexes, soit la sociolinguistique et raménagement des langues. La première section des Actes de ce colloque regroupe donc les textes des communications se rapportant à cette thématique. La seconde section, quant à elle, réunit les textes des communications libres. Nous souhaitons que ces Actes permettent à tous ceux et celles qui n'ont pu assister au XVIe colloque de l'ALPA de prendre connaissance des échanges stimulants et fructueux qui ont marqué cette rencontre. Catherine Phlipponneau We are honored that the Atlantic Provinces Linguistic Association (APLA) has entrusted the Centre de recherche en linguistique appliquée (CRLA) de l'Université de Moncton with the organization of its XVIth Annual Symposium and the publication of its Proceedings, a collection of the majority of papers presented during the Symposium. We would like to thank all members and friends of APLA who attended this meeting. We are particularly grateful to Henriette Walter, Université de Haute-Bretagne; William Labov, University of Pennsylvania, and Pierre-Étienne Laporte, President of the Conseil de la langue française of the Government of Québec for having graciously accepted our invitation. The outstanding quality of the lectures they presented as well as their presence among us most certainly contributed to the success of the Symposium. The purpose of the meeting was not only to share the outcome of our research on diverse subjects with our colleagues but also to examine the relationship between sociolinguistics and language planning, two closely related fields. The discussion papers that developed this thematic are presented in the first section of the Symposium's Proceedings. The second section is dedicated to the remaining papers on a range of subjects. It is our hope that these Proceedings will provide all those who were unable to participate in Atlantic Provinces Linguistic Association XVIth Symposium

  • Ukrainian Language in Canada: from Prosperity to Extinction?
    Ukrainian language in Canada: From prosperity to extinction? Khrystyna Hudyma University of Saskatchewan In this paper I want to explore in what way and due to what factors the Ukrainian language in Canada evolved from being a mother tongue for one of the biggest country’s ethnic groups to just an ethnic language hardly spoken by younger generations. Ukrainian was brought to the country by peasant settlers from Western Ukraine at the end of the 19th century; therefore, it is one of the oldest heritage languages in Canada. Three subsequent waves of Ukrainian immigration supplied language retention; however had their own language-related peculiarities. Initially, the Ukrainian language in Canada differed from standard Ukrainian, with the pace of time and under influence of the English language they diverged even more. Profound changes on phonetic, lexical and grammatical levels allow some scholars to consider Canadian Ukrainian an established dialect of standard Ukrainian. Once one of the best maintained mother tongues in Canada, today Ukrainian experiences a significant drop in number of native speakers and use at home, as well as faces a persistent failure of transmission to the next generation. Although, numerous efforts are made to maintain Ukrainian in Canada, i.e. bilingual schools, summer camps, university courses, the young generation of Ukrainian Canadians learn it as a foreign language and limit its use to family and school settings. Such tendency fosters language shift and puts Canadian Ukrainian on the brink of extinction in the nearest future. 1 Introduction The first records of immigrants arriving from the territory of modern Ukraine to Canada go back to 1892, and thus, have more than a century of history.

  • Differences and Similarities in Attitudes Towards Intellectual and Visual Culture Within the Ukrainian-Canadian Community in Edmonton, Alberta.1
    Volume 3.1 / Fall 2016 Differences and Similarities in Attitudes towards Intellectual and Visual Culture within the Ukrainian-Canadian Community in Edmonton, Alberta.1 Susanna M. Lynn Abstract Ukrainian-Canadians are a relatively well-established group in Canada. This paper draws on data gathered from ten interviews about ethnic identity discourses which I conducted with new and established members of the Ukrainian-Canadian community in Edmonton, Alberta. Using critical discourse analysis, I investigate the responses to nine of the original thirty-seven interview questions, which included two ranking questions; these questions inquired about participants’ opinions and evaluations of [Ukrainian] literature, language, music and important “kinds” and aspects of culture. Responses exposed some of the similarities and differences in attitudes the two groups held towards intellectual and visual culture, highlighting the evolving nature of this community, and providing detail that enhances understanding of these attitudes. I present key arguments as to why these similarities and differences may, at least in part, correlate to the unique socio-cultural environments in which each group has been developing culture since Ukraine’s Independence. In particular, I posit that “the linguistic factor” (a term I use to summarize the interconnected influence that language, literature, and linguistic ability have on each other) is one of the most salient forces in shaping and informing these similarities and differences in attitudes towards intellectual and visual culture. 1 This research received support from the Shevchenko Scientific Society of Canada and the Social Sciences and Humanities Research Council (SSHRC). Introduction Ukrainian-Canadians have been a part of Canada’s foundation since the 1890s, and have been the focus of a respectable amount of literature, especially concerning their early history.

The Catholic intellectual tradition that animates St. Thomas More College enables our students to be the forces for transformation that Havel describes.

  • The Canadian Institute of Ukrainian Studies: Foundations, EWJUS, Vol
    The Canadian Institute of Ukrainian Studies: Foundations Volodymyr Kravchenko University of Alberta Abstract: The Canadian Institute of Ukrainian Studies (CIUS) became the second academic institution in the Western world to fully specialize in exploring Ukrainian history, culture, and current affairs after the Harvard Ukrainian Research Institute (HURI). Establishment of the CIUS in Edmonton was not predetermined. There were other ideas and competing projects with regard to place, profile, and institutional model of Ukrainian studies in Canada. Edmonton became a winner due to a unique combination of Western regionalism, multiculturalism, the makeup of the Ukrainian local community, and the personal qualities of that community’s leaders. Contrary to widespread opinion, the CIUS did not copy the institutional model of the HURI. The CIUS model is unique, as it embraces a broad, interdisciplinary research agenda, and community-oriented activities related to education and culture. Keywords: Canadian Institute of Ukrainian Studies, Edmonton, Winnipeg, Toronto, multiculturalism. INTRODUCTION or over forty years the Canadian Institute of Ukrainian Studies (CIUS) has F been one of the only two academic institutes in the Western world fully specialized in exploring Ukrainian history, culture, and current affairs. Its purview has particularly embraced a broad variety of topics related to the Ukrainian community in Canada, as well as institutional and intellectual aspects of Ukrainian studies in the West since the 1960s. Although many insightful observations
