I 9 92? 11 ABSTRACT Two secondary social studies textbooks, Canada: A Nation Unfolding, and Canada Today were analyzed with regard to the inclusion of the lives, experiences, perspectives and contributions of females throughout history and today. Drawing on the existing literature,-a framework of analysis was created comprised of four categories: 1) language; 2) visual representation; 3) positioning and; 4) critical analysis of content. Each of these categories was further broken into a series of related subcategories in order to examine in depth and detail, the portrayal of women in these two textbooks.

Stanbury (Vice-Chair), R. Cohen (ad hoc), P. Fockler and M. Hogarth THE FACTS On November 12, 1998, one of the topics discussed on CFRA-AM’s (Ottawa) Lowell Green Show, which is reprised the next day without editing in a videotaped format on CHRO-TV, was the controversial sentencing decision in the Lilian Getkate case. Getkate had shot her husband in the back while he was sleeping but pleaded self-defence based on the fact that she had suffered through years of abuse and lived in fear that he would kill her. She was sentenced to two years less a day of house arrest. Host Lowell Green was very critical in his comments on this sentencing decision. He alleged that there were no police records, hospital files or other form of corroboration even by friends or family to support the wife’s accusation of abuse. Sarcastically, he congratulated women for having been granted the leisure of killing men at will without fear of any harsh sentencing. His commentary on the case included the following monologue (with brief intervention from a caller): Here’s my advice for this wonderful Thursday morning. First of all, you take out a huge insurance policy on your husband, then, as he lay sleeping, you plug him full of brain holes. Then, when they come to arrest you, you tell everyone what a beast the guy was and presto, you’ve got yourself one rich widow.

  • Honour and Care
    Honourand Care Spring 2018 A Blessed Life By Peter McKinnon everal birthday cards adorn Edith Goodspeed’s room at the Perley and Rideau Veterans’ Health Centre, marking her recent birthday. “This was Snumber 99,” she says with a smile, “for all my future birthdays, I won’t count any higher…I’ll just stay 99.” Edith has certainly earned the right to lie about her age. As a Nursing Sister in England during the Second World War, she experienced the horrors of Nazi bombing and helped countless soldiers recover enough to return home or back into battle. She later raised three children and today is blessed with seven grandchildren and two great grandchildren. Born in 1919 as the second child of a farm family in Rosetown, Saskatchewan, Edith Mary Ferrall was named after her aunt. Edith’s father died before she was three; her mother sold the farm and raised Edith and her brother Arthur in Cypress River, Manitoba. “My parents both worked hard and did a lot for the community,” she recalls.

    e-- glebe 9, 1 Octobertrepart 1992 Vol. 21 9 No. Central Park replanting a big success BY STEVE GURMAN More than 60 people turned out on Sunday, September 27 to plant trees in Central Park. Nearly 100 trees and bushes, including red maple, elm, ash, willow, poplar and serviceberry were placed in the western and northern sections of the park by an enthusiastic group, which shrugged off the occasional drizzle (which was perfect for the trees, however). The planting supervisors arrived at 8 a.m. to set up the registration and re- freshment tables, run through a practice planting and as- sign tasks for the day. Planters began to turn up at 9 a.m. and by 9:30 the exercise was in full swing.

    CANADIAN BROADCAST STANDARDS COUNCIL ONTARIO REGIONAL COUNCIL CFRA-AM re the Mark Sutcliffe and Lowell Green Shows (CBSC Decisions 9697-0083, 0084 and 0085) Decided May 7, 1997 A. MacKay (Chair), R. Stanbury (Vice-Chair), R. Cohen (ad hoc), P. Fockler, M. Hogarth, M. Ziniak THE FACTS On January 1, 1997, the Ottawa police shot Mr. Francis Nicholls, a member of the black community, in his Ottawa apartment. On the following morning, Mark Sutcliffe, sitting in for the regular early morning (6:00-9:00 a.m.) host, Steve Madely, on CFRA-AM (Ottawa), dealt with issues relating to the shooting; he continued on the subject on the early morning show of January 3. Lowell Green, the host of the mid-morning (9:00 a.m.-12 noon) show, did not raise the subject on his show of January 2 but did deal with it at length on the show of January 3. Since the complainant raised issues of a substantially similar nature regarding the three shows of hosts Sutcliffe and Green which dealt with the shooting, the CBSC considers it appropriate to address the complaints in a single decision. There are so many excerpts from the various shows which bear some relevance to the issues raised in the complainant’s letter that the Council believes that the most useful way of presenting these is in Appendices to this decision, with only brief excerpts in the body of the decision. To do otherwise would result in an otherwise unavoidably confused presentation of the facts. That being said, the Council is of the view that having the lengthier excerpts available to those who wish to review this matter in detail will at least permit them to have all of the relevant material at hand.

During what the present thesis calls the “crisis of Britishness” from 1964 to 1968, the British character of Canada was redefined and Britishness portrayed as something foreign or “other.” This post-British conception of Canada has been buttressed by historians depicting the British connection as a colonial hangover, an externally-derived, narrowly ethnic, nostalgic, or retardant force. However, Britishness, as a unique amalgam of hybrid identities in the Canadian context, in fact took on new and multiple meanings.
