URL : http://journals.openedition.org/eccs/1118 ; DOI : 10.4000/eccs.1118 AFEC From Britishness to Multiculturalism: Official Canadian Identity in the 1960s Shannon CONWAY University of Ottawa The 1960s was a tumultuous period that resulted in the reshaping of official Canadian identity from a predominately British-based identity to one that reflected Canada’s diversity. 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.

  • Significant Developments in the Immigration Laws of the United States 1986
    Synopsis SIGNIFICANT DEVELOPMENTS IN THE IMMIGRATION LAWS OF THE UNITED STATES 1986 This Synopsis highlights significant legal developments which oc- curred in immigration law in 1986. The Supreme Court decided only one immigration case during this period, dealing with the definition of "child" in Immigration and Nationality Act section 244 suspension of deportation cases. The lower federal courts were highly active, dealing with a wide range of important immigration issues. The most significant development in 1986 was the passage by the 99th Congress of the Immigration Reform and Control Act of 1986 (IRCA). Passage of IRCA culminates six years of con- gressional attempts to reach an agreement on immigration reform. Seemingly cutting both ways, IRCA provides tough employer sanctions while offering generous legalization provisions and mul- tiple safeguards for the humane administrationof new policies. INTRODUCTION By presidential proclamation, July 4, 1986, was declared "Na- tional Immigrants Day."' On Liberty Weekend, "all America cele- brate[d] the memory of those hardy immigrants, who, symbolically at least, looked up and saw the Statue of Liberty lifting her lamp beside the golden door. It [was] a time to smile, to weep, to sigh contentedly."' 2 Meanwhile, despite widespread sympathy for immi- 1. Proclamation No. 5510, 51 Fed. Reg. 24, 509 (1986). The presidential procla- mation reads, in pertinent part: Since 1820, more than 52 million immigrants have come to the United States from all over the world. They have sought and found a new and better life for themselves and their children in this land of liberty and opportunity. The mag- net that draws them is freedom and the beacon that guides them is hope.

  • Some Personal Reflections on Manitoba Political Journalism
    DRAFT Some Personal Reflections on Manitoba Political Journalism By Frances Russell Prepared for the Roblin Professorship Conference, St. John’s College, University of Manitoba, Nov. 20‐22, 2008 Manitoba political journalism As a veteran of 46 years in journalism, I’ve witnessed one of the most profound and dramatic revolutions in the news business since Gutenberg invented the printing press. I began my career at the Winnipeg Tribune in May, 1962 after graduating with a BA in history and political science. Back then, Winnipeg was a fiercely competitive newspaper market, boasting two broadsheet dailies representing the nation’s two major newspaper chains: Southam, owned by the family of the same name and FP Publications, owned by the Siftons. Both the Trib and its bigger rival, the Winnipeg Free Press, put out a morning and up to three afternoon editions daily, re-plating the front page as necessary to carry breaking news. This was the era before computers, before tape recorders, before the internet, before the blackberry. Reporters scribbled their notes on copy paper using thick yellow newsprinter pencils. They pounded out their stories on blank sheets of newsprint wadded, along with carbon paper, into heavy black Underwood typewriters. Sometimes as many as four or five copies were required, the first for the all-important Canadian Press wire and the remainder for various editors. If they were on deadline, reporters would rip each page out as soon as they had completed a paragraph, shout “Copy” and hand it to a “copy boy” who would rush one page to the city editor, another to his assistant and literally skewer a third on CP’s long, very sharp metal spike resting on the city editor’s desk.
