  • Exhibiting a Nation: Canada at the British Empire Exhibition, 1924–1925
    View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE provided by Histoire sociale / Social History (E-Journal, York University) Exhibiting a Nation: Canada at the British Empire Exhibition, 1924–1925 ANNE CLENDINNING* The British Empire Exhibition held in 1924 and 1925 presented a chance for Canada to assert a national identity and a prominent place, as a self-governing, “white” dominion, within the British imperial family of nations. Those responsible for the gov- ernment pavilion consciously sought to understate regional differences and to con- struct and project a unified, homogeneous image of the nation, despite its vast geographic distances and obvious differences of language and race. While their inten- tions were to attract investment and improve export markets for Canadian goods, the exhibition commissioners assembled a set of images intended to sum up the idea of Canada. The resulting national representation proved to be contested, fragmented, and sometimes controversial. But for Canadians who visited the exhibit, the pavilion seemed to speak on an emotional level, inspiring national identification and pride. L’Exposition de l’empire britannique de 1924 et de 1925 a permis au Canada d’affirmer son identité nationale et de se hisser au palmarès des dominions « blancs » du giron de l’Empire britannique. Les responsables du pavillon gouvernemental ont consciemment cherché à minimiser les différences régionales de même qu’à dépein- dre le Canada comme un pays homogène en dépit de son immensité géographique et de ses différences évidentes de langue et de race. Bien qu’ils cherchaient à séduire les investisseurs et à trouver des débouchés pour les produits canadiens à l’exportation, les commissaires à l’exposition ont assemblé un panorama d’images visant à résumer l’idée du Canada.

  • Cultural Collaboration, Connective Traditions, and Aboriginal Brass Bands on British Columbia's North Coast, 1875-1964
    “Here Comes the Band!”: Cultural Collaboration, Connective Traditions, and Aboriginal Brass Bands on British Columbia’s North Coast, 1875-1964* S USAN NEYLAN, WITH MELISSA MEYER Moment One: Susan Neylan In 2002, I visited Haida Gwaii (the Queen Charlotte Islands) for the first time. I was eager to see the new poles recently raised at Skidegate (in the summer of 2001) and the Haida-run museum at Kaay llnagaay. Along with a bit of natural history, the museum features, of course, Haida material culture. One room in particular is filled with historical pieces that most visitors associate with Haida artistic styles – poles, bentwood boxes, elaborately carved argillite. However, in the corner of this room, hanging on the wall, there are also two rather well-worn, obviously well-loved tubas and a big drum. Accompanying these is a photograph of the Skidegate marching brass band. The caption reads: “The band had won three competitions on the mainland in 1910, 1911, and 1912. The cup, brought home with the band after that third win, is now located in the Skidegate Band Office.”1 Nearly a hundred years since being won in the battle of the Aboriginal brass bands, the trophy is still held in high esteem by the village, and the inclusion of mementos of the brass band in their local museum suggests that the Haida value this musical past as cultural history. * Hartley Bay resident Simon Reece told us that when he was young, children who heard the village band strike up a tune used to call out: “Here comes the band … and the marriage,” referring to one of its most common public performative duties, which was to play at weddings (Margaret [neé Clifton] and Simon Reece, interviewed by Susan Neylan and Melissa Meyer at Hartley Bay, 18 July 2003).

  • Changes in Bridge Engineering, and a New Bridge Over a Unesco World Heritage Site
    CHANGES IN BRIDGE ENGINEERING, AND A NEW BRIDGE OVER A UNESCO WORLD HERITAGE SITE William Victor Anderson, P.Eng., Executive Vice President, Delcan Sylvain Montminy, P.Eng., Division Manager, Delcan Abdol Nouraeyan, P.Eng., Program Manager, City of Ottawa Marcel Delph, P.Eng., Senior Project Manager, City of Ottawa Paper prepared for presentation at the STRUCTURES: BRIDGES IN A CLIMATE OF CHANGE Session of the 2009 Annual Conference of the Transportation Association of Canada Vancouver, British Columbia ABSTRACT Some 35 years ago the St. Patrick Street Bridge over the Rideau River in the City of Ottawa was replaced. It was proposed that the new bridge be an arch bridge, replacing the existing functionally obsolete multi-span concrete arch which had been at the site since the 1920s, but respectful of the heritage of the site and the crossing. However, in the then-prevailing climate of bridge design, a more conventional post-tensioned concrete multi-span slab bridge was selected for design, and it was constructed in 1975. It might be described as functional but perhaps uninspiring. Since then the steel box girder Hunt Club Bridge has been constructed over the Rideau River, and the Cummings Bridge has been rehabilitated, amongst other bridge works over the river. Similarly the Bank Street Arch Bridge and the Plaza Bridge over the Rideau Canal have been restored. As well, in the intervening years the Rideau Canal has now been designated as a UNESCO World Heritage Site, and is on the National Register of Historic Sites in Canada. It is now proposed that another new bridge over the Rideau River and Rideau Canal be constructed near the south limit of the City.

  • Rideau River - Rideau Falls Catchment Lower Rideau River Subwatershed Report 2012
    RIDEAU RIVER - RIDEAU FALLS CATCHMENT LOWER RIDEAU RIVER SUBWATERSHED REPORT 2012 The RVCA produces individual reports for 16 catchments in the Lower Rideau subwatershed. Using data collected and analysed by the RVCA through its watershed monitoring and land cover classification programs, surface water quality conditions are reported for the Rideau River along with a summary of environmental conditions for the surrounding countryside every six years. This information is used to help better understand the effects of human activity on our water resources, allows us to better track environmental change over time and helps focus watershed management actions where they are needed the most. The following pages of this report are a compilation of that work. For other Lower Rideau catchments and Lower Rideau Subwatershed Report, please visit the RVCA website at www.rvca.ca. Inside 1.
