    Wartime Training at Canadian Universities during the Second World War Anne Millar Thesis submitted to the Faculty of Graduate and Postdoctoral Studies in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the Doctorate of Philosophy degree in history Department of History Faculty of Arts University of Ottawa © Anne Millar, Ottawa, Canada, 2015 ii Abstract This dissertation provides an account of the contributions of Canadian universities to the Second World War. It examines the deliberations and negotiations of university, government, and military officials on how best to utilize and direct the resources of Canadian institutions of higher learning towards the prosecution of the war and postwar reconstruction. During the Second World War, university leaders worked with the Dominion Government and high-ranking military officials to establish comprehensive training programs on campuses across the country. These programs were designed to produce service personnel, provide skilled labour for essential war and civilian industries, impart specialized and technical knowledge to enlisted service members, and educate returning veterans. University administrators actively participated in the formation and expansion of these training initiatives and lobbied the government for adequate funding to ensure the success of their efforts. This study shows that university heads, deans, and prominent faculty members eagerly collaborated with both the government and the military to ensure that their institutions’ material and human resources were best directed in support of the war effort and that, in contrast to the First World War, skilled graduates would not be heedlessly wasted. At the center of these negotiations was the National Conference of Canadian Universities, a body consisting of heads of universities and colleges from across the country.

NEW NON-FICTION One Good Reason A Memoir of Addiction and Recovery, Music and Love Séan McCann with Andrea Aragon A powerful memoir from the founder of Great Big Sea, exploring his alcoholism, childhood abuse, and fight to save his marriage, family, and himself In this deeply personal memoir, co-written with wife Andrea Aragon, singer-songwriter and renowned mental health, addiction, and recovery advocate Séan McCann leaves no stone unturned. Detailing, in powerful and lyrical prose, a childhood in Newfoundland indoctrinated in strict Catholic faith, the creation of the wildly successful Great Big Sea, his courtship and early marriage with Aragon, and the battle with alcoholism that nearly cost him everything, McCann offers readers a love story, a memoir of addiction and recovery, of young love and a strained marriage, of reaching international fame and rock bottom.

    The English Patient

    THE ENGLISH PATIENT MICHAEL ONDAATJE “A magically told novel … ravishing … many-layered.” —Los Angeles Times “Profound, beautiful and heart-quickening.” —Toni Morrison “Lyrical … dreamlike and enigmatic … A Farewell to Arms drenched in spooky ennui. It is also a difficult novel to leave behind, for it has the external grip of a war romance and yet the ineffable pull of poetry … An exquisite ballet that takes place in the dark.” —Boston Sunday Globe “A tale of many pleasures—an intensely theatrical tour de force but grounded in Michael Ondaatje’s strong feeling for distant times and places.” —The New York Times Book Review “A poetry of smoke and mirrors.” —Washington Post Book World “In this masterful novel, Michael Ondaatje weaves a beautiful and light-handed prose through the mingled histories of people caught up in love and war. A rich and compelling work of fiction.” —Don DeLillo “It seduces and beguiles us with its many-layered mysteries, its brilliantly taut and lyrical prose, its tender regard for its characters.… On every page The English Patient pulses with intellectual and aesthetic excitement.” —Newsday “A narrative of astonishing elegance and power … one of the finest novels of recent years—large, rich, and profoundly wise.” —Mirahella “It is an adventure, mystery, romance and philosophical novel in one.… Michael Ondaatje is a novelist with the heart of a poet.” —Chicago Tribune In memory of Skip and Mary Dickinson For Quintin and Griffin And for Louise Dennys , with thanks “Most of you, I am sure, remember the tragic circumstances of the death of Geoffrey Clifton at Gilf Kebir, followed later by the disappearance of his wife, Katharine Clifton, which took place during the 1939 desert expedition in search of Zerzura.

    Ms Coll 00050 Davies (Robertson) Papers Robertson Davies Papers (gift of June Davis) Dates: 1929-2008 Extent: 115 boxes (22 metres) Biographical Description: Robertson Davies was born in Thamesville, Ontario in 1913 and was the third son of W. Rupert Davies and Florence Sheppard McKay. Davies’ father, Rupert Davies was born in Wales and was the publisher of The Kingston Whig Standard and was appointed to the Senate as a Liberal in 1942, a position he would hold until his death in 1967. As a young child, Robertson Davies moved with his family to Renfrew, Ontario, where his father managed the local newspaper, the Renfrew Mercury. The family would later relocate to Kingston in 1925. Between 1928 and 1932, Davies attended Upper Canada College in Toronto, where he performed in theatrical performances and wrote and edited the school paper, The College Times. After graduating, Davies attended Queen’s University in Kingston, where he was enrolled as a special student as he was not working towards a specific degree. Between 1932 and 1935, Davies wrote for the school paper and performed and directed theatrical plays. In 1935, Davies traveled to England to study at Baillol College at Oxford, where he was enrolled in a Bachelor of Letters degree. At Oxford, Davies performed with the Oxford University Dramatic Society and was a co- founder of the Long Christmas Dinner Society.
