The change in constructions of official Canadian identity was due to pressures from an ongoing dialogue in Canadian society that reflected the larger geo-political shifts taking place during the period. This dialogue helped shape the political discussion, from one focused on maintaining an out-dated national identity to one that was more representative of how many Canadians understood Canada to be. This change in political opinion accordingly transformed the official identity of the nation-state of Canada. Les années 1960 ont été une période tumultueuse qui a fait passer l'identité officielle canadienne d'une identité essentiellement britannique à une identité reflétant la diversité du Canada.

    UKRAINIAN CANADIAN STUDENTS' UNION СОЮЗ УКРАЇНСЬКОГО СТУДЕНТСТВА КАНАДИ UNION DES ÉTUDIANTS UKRAINIENS CANADIENS SUSK recalls the Canadian Train of Ukrainian Pioneers Larissa Schieven – Project Director One hundred and twenty years ago, Ukrainian pioneers arrived in Canada, with dreams of a better life for themselves and their families. After years of hardships, struggles and hard work, these brave Ukrainians made a home for themselves in Canada, and today, more than 1.2 millions Canadians have Ukrainian heritage. This past summer, in celebration and recognition of the hard work and sacrifices of these first Ukrainian-Canadian pioneers, the Embassy of Ukraine in Canada launched the Historical Train of Ukrainian Pioneers, tracing the path of the first Ukrainian settlers, beginning in Halifax and ending in Edmonton. Former Ambassador Ihor Ostash graciously donated 3 full-trip tickets to SUSK, the Ukrainian Canadian Students Union during the 53rd Annual National SUSK Congress in Ottawa. Four students, past and present SUSK executive members, had the opportunity and honour to take part in this once-in-a-lifetime experience, on segments of the trip. Augustine Krawchenko, internal relations director, Nadia Demko, secretary, Marco Jacuta, former president and myself, Larissa Schieven, project director, took part in the trip that began on June 24th, 2011 and ended on July 7th, 2011. On the train trip, which stopped in Halifax, Montreal, Ottawa, Toronto, Winnipeg, Saskatoon and finally Edmonton, were politicians, Ukrainian community leaders, members of Canadian and Ukrainian media, as well as artists, performers and musicians. Passengers were encouraged to wear authentic Ukrainian costumes. The SUSK participants are all extremely grateful to the Ukrainian embassy for the opportunity.

    Canadian Judicial Nomination Processes and the Press: ‘Interesting, in a Sleepy Sort of Way’

    Oñati Socio-legal Series, v. 4, n. 4 (2014) – Law in the Age of Media Logic ISSN: 2079-5971 Canadian Judicial Nomination Processes and the Press: ‘Interesting, in a Sleepy Sort of Way’ ∗ DAVID SCHNEIDERMAN Schneiderman, D., 2014. Canadian Judicial Nomination Processes and the Press: ‘Interesting, in a Sleepy Sort of Way’. Oñati Socio-legal Series [online], 4 (4), 685-708. Available from: http://ssrn.com/abstract=2511239 Abstract Most of the recent appointees to the Supreme Court of Canada have participated in a new Canadian judicial nomination process initiated by the current Conservative government. As originally formulated in early policy platforms, the process was intended to mimic features of US Senate judicial confirmation hearings and so would highlight the distinction (popular in US political discourse) between ‘applying’ and ‘making’ law. This led to widespread fears that any new public process would politicize judicial appointments and functions at the Supreme Court. The process turned out to be much more tepid than anticipated and so raises questions about what Canadians may have learned as a consequence of this new nomination process. This paper undertakes a qualitative analysis of reporting of four nomination processes from a select number of Canadian newspapers. The main object is to determine the degree to which readers might have been alerted to the distinction between law and politics or, put another way, between judicial activism and restraint. It turns out that this framing was not dominant in the coverage and that, instead, distinctive Canadian political preoccupations, like language politics, got channeled through this new political opportunity structure.

    APRIL 2016, Volume 58, Issue 4 Ukrainian Canadian Students’ Union President’s Message Dear Readers, The past few months have been very busy for SUSK, with our Executive spending many hours working on the upcoming SUSK Congress in Saskatoon. We have also been hard at work updating our position paper for the year, as well as updating our Student Archive by posting all of the names and authors of past issues online. The 2016 National SUSK Congress is back in Saskatoon after a 25 year absence. The entire SUSK Executive is thrilled to be working with the University of Saskatchewan Ukrainian Students' Association (USUSA) to help put on this 4 day event. Students from across Canada will meet to discuss various topics, learn from engaging speakers, and even explore a bit of the prairie life of Ukrainian settlers in the region. On the Saturday of the Congress weekend, SUSK is excited to be a part of the Vensa Festival - one of the largest Ukrainian festivals in Western Canada. Registration for Congress is still open for a short while so please visit congress.susk.ca to register today! Over the past few weeks, our SUSK Executive has also updated our position paper which will soon be live on our website, susk.ca. We identified current topics that are of importance to SUSK in both Canada and Ukraine. A few topics of the paper include Ukrainian studies, Ukraine's independence, the unjust imprisonment of Ukrainians by Russia, Ukraine's integration into the EU and NATO, and the Canada's Diplomatic Relations with Ukraine.

This practice is analyzed in Canada between 1963 and 1978, a period of continual Progressive Conservative Opposition. The under• lying question is whether shadow cabinet organization has become more or less institutionalized during the period. In the introduction Samuel Huntington's four tests of institutionalization are outlined. They were used in assessing Canadian shadow cabinet institutionalization. To operationalize the tests for this study it proved use• ful to analyze the institution of the Canadian cabinet system along these dimensions.

  • Gender, Political Leadership and Media Visibility: Globe and Mail Coverage of Conservative Party of Canada Leadership Contests

    Gender, Political Leadership and Media Visibility: Globe and Mail Coverage of Conservative Party of Canada Leadership Contests

    Gender, Political Leadership and Media Visibility: Globe and Mail Coverage of Conservative Party of Canada Leadership Contests LINDA TRIMBLE1 University of Alberta Introduction When women seek the leadership of competitive political parties, does their sex influence their news visibility throughout the campaign? Or is the amount and prominence of a leadership candidate’s news coverage determined by their competitiveness and standing in the race? To date, studies examining the relationship between gender and the amount of news coverage a candidate receives have provided inconclusive results. While some studies indicate a gender gap in news visibility, others sug- gest women are not disadvantaged relative to men and indeed may attract more news attention because of their sex. If gender parity in the amount of coverage of similarly situated candidates can be established, then it is likely that factors other than the sex of the candidate are shaping the quantity and placement of news coverage. This paper examines the relationship between the sex of the party leadership candidates and their visibility in news reports by performing a content analysis of Globe and Mail coverage of each of the three Con- servative Party of Canada leadership races featuring “high quality”2 female contenders: Flora MacDonald in 1976, Kim Campbell in 1993 and Belinda Stronach in 2004. While the three case studies are similar in three respects—political party, news source and the presence of a female candidate—they reflect important differences in the nature, competitive- ness and importance of the leadership race, the political context for women and the success of the female candidate.
