  • Our Society Lacks Consistently Defined Attitudes
    ‘OUR SOCIETY LACKS CONSISTENTLY DEFINED ATTITUDES TOWARDS THE BLACK BEAR’: THE HISTORY OF BLACK BEAR HUNTING AND MANAGEMENT IN ONTARIO, 1912-1987 by MICHAEL COMMITO, B.A. (HONS), M.A. McMaster University DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY (2015) Hamilton, Ontario (History) TITLE: ‘Our society lacks consistently defined attitudes towards the black bear’: The History of Black Bear Hunting and Management in Ontario, 1912-1987 AUTHOR: Michael Commito, B.A. (Hons) (Laurentian University), M.A. (Laurentian University) SUPERVISOR: Dr. Ken Cruikshank NUMBER OF PAGES: vii, 282 ii ABSTRACT What kind of animal was a black bear? Were black bears primarily pests, pets, furbearers or game animals? Farmers, conservationists, tourists, trappers, and hunters in early twentieth- century Ontario could not agree. Even as the century progressed, ideas about bears remained twisted and there was often very little consensus about what the animal represented. These varying perceptions complicated the efforts of the provincial Department of Game and Fisheries and its successor agencies, the Department of Lands and Forests and the Ministry of Natural Resources, to develop coherent bear management policies. Perceptions about black bears often conflicted and competed with one another and at no one time did they have a single meaning in Ontario. The image of Ontario’s black bears has been continuously negotiated as human values, attitudes, and policies have changed over time. As a result, because of various and often competing perspectives, the province’s bear management program, for most of the twentieth century, was very loose and haphazard because the animal had never been uniformly defined or valued. Examining the history of these ambiguous viewpoints towards the black bear in Ontario provides us with a snapshot of how culture intersects with our natural resources and may pose challenges for management.

  • From Weekly Newspapers to Online Dailies: the Transformation of Canada's Community Press
    From weekly newspapers to online dailies: The transformation of Canada's community press by Isobel-Patricia Lonergan A thesis submitted to the Faculty of Graduate and Postdoctoral Affairs in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Journalism Carleton University Ottawa, Ontario © 2015 Isobel-Patricia Lonergan i Abstract The speed, scope and scale by which information is transmitted have contributed to a monumental shift in the way community newsrooms operate. The Internet has given Canada’s community newspapers the ability to publish online as quickly as their daily and broadcast counterparts, providing both opportunities and challenges. This study investigates how community newsrooms are adapting to a digital environment, examines media response to technological change, and assesses the long-term viability of community newspapers via an analysis of structural trends at a time when newspapers are forced to once again renegotiate their place within the evolving networked news ecology. This is, after all, not the first time newspapers have faced a so- called disruptive technology. Radio did not kill newspapers, nor will the Internet. Canada’s community newspapers have a viable future, but only if there is a return to the core mandate of the weekly press, which requires meaningful investment in a multimedia newsroom. i Acknowledgements A heartfelt thank you goes out to my thesis supervisor, Klaus Pohle, for his guidance and support as I found myself juggling my career, significant life events and this project simultaneously. His assistance and patience are deeply appreciated and I am grateful for his encouragement and wisdom along the way. My sincere thanks to Susan Harada for her constructive comments and feedback.

  • A Free and Independent Press Has Become One of the Hallmarks of a Healthy Democracy
    PROVINCIAL UNITY AMIDST A DIMINISHING PRESS GALLERY by LESLIE DE MEULLES 2009-2010 INTERN THE ONTARIO LEGISLATURE INTERNSHIP PROGRAMME (OLIP) 1303A WHITNEY BLOCK QUEEN'S PARK TORONTO, ONTARIO M7A 1A1 EMAIL: [email protected] PAPER PRESENTED AT THE 2010 ANNUAL MEETING OF THE CANADIAN POLITICAL SCIENCE ASSOCIATION, MONTREAL,QUÉBEC, WEDNESDAY, JUNE 2nd, 2010. A free and independent press has become one of the hallmarks of a healthy democracy. Press galleries and bureaus have similarly become a cornerstone of the democratic process insofar as they independently report on, and keep politicians accountable. However, the Ontario Legislature Press Gallery membership has been declining over the past 20 years. This decline may very well be an indicator that this „valued‟ democratic institution is in dire straits. This paper attempts to explain why the Press Gallery is shrinking and how decreasing number have led to a lack of political coverage to Northern Ontario, and is leading Northern constituents to rely heavily on their MPPs as a source of political news. This is problematic, as MPP communication can hardly be expected to be non-partisan, objective reporting on the events at Queen‟s Park. That people in Northern Ontario rely on partisan political messaging as a substitute for political news shows how the media as an institution is failing the North, as relying on these forms of communication is akin to relying on propaganda. Due to a dearth of literature on the Ontario Legislature, the research for this paper relied on interviews conducted with Northern MPPs, and current and former Press Gallery members1. The paper exists in three parts.

Dunbar, Editor Editodal Office Copper Cliff, Ont. Authorized ,* second clan mail. Post Offle Department. Ottawa IN EVERY WAY - PLAY IT SAFE! "Every season, fishermen drown, get lost, suffer mishaps and en- counter disaster because some safe- ty precaution was overlooked, or because they were unaware of or neglected one or more of angling's prime rules for safe fishing," the Ontario Department of Lands and Forests reminds anglers. "In every way, play it safe !" is the warning which prefaces a list of fishing safety "musts" listed in the 1959 "Summary of the Ontario Fishing Regulations" Issued by the department. Here they are: Land fish carefully! Keep a landing net handy - and use it. Otherwise your hand may slip on the slimy fish and run foul of a triple-barb hook, with painful results, far from a doctor. Use a heavy glove and long-nose pliers when removing hooks from "mus- kies" and other such fish. Cast clear of other anglers! Learn the overhead bait-cast. It's accurate, effortless, safe Casting bait by the "side-winder" method is for when you're alone! It's dangerous, of course, to fly- cast directly overhead - a puff of wind may blow the hooked fly in your face. Most fly casters use a "three-quarters" cast - keeps the line to one side a bit, though, so be sure your companions are safe on your other side Fish only from a firm footing! To fish from a slippery rock or log Is to invite disaster: avoid the loose, slippery kind.
