I have "Principal Shuffle" The principals of Glebe's three Ottawa Board Schools will be leaving the area at the end of the school year. Their departure is part of a city-wide "principal shuffle". Mr King, currently at Glebe Collegiate, is being transferred to Canterbury High School to begin his term as principal there in September 1979. Mr Zadow will be going to Woodroffe Elementary School from a six year stint at Mutchmor. And Mr Wing leaves First Avenue School, after two years,ifor Elgin Street School. Mr Zadow enjoyed his tenure at Mutchmor and found the experience "very rewarding. I'm going to miss the community," he stated. Mr King found the Glebe community to be "very well organized and aware. People were never afraid to pick up the phone and complain to me." Mr Wing also enjoyed his time at First Avenue, finding it interesting and rewarding. He was pleased with the excellent cooperation he received from the community. "There were always people ready to help," he said. By September, the Glebe will be welcoming three new principals.

  • Canadian Humour
    Canadian humour Canadian humour is an integral part of the Canadian Identity. There are several traditions in Canadian humour in both English and French. While these traditions are distinct and at times very different, there are common themes that relate to Canadians' shared history and geopolitical situation in North America and the world. Various trends can be noted in Canadian comedy. One thread is the portrayal of a "typical" Canadian family in an on-going radio or television series. Examples include La famille Plouffe, with its mix of drama, humour, politics and religion and sitcoms such as King of Kensington and La Petite Vie. Another major thread tends to be political and cultural satire: television shows such as CODCO, Royal Canadian Air Farce, La Fin du monde est à 7 heures and This Hour Has 22 Minutes, monologuists such as Yvon Deschamps and Rick Mercer and writers, including Michel Tremblay, Will Ferguson and Eric Nicol draw their inspiration from Canadian and Québécois society and politics. Another trend revels in absurdity, demonstrated by television series like The Kids in the Hall and The Frantics, and musician-comedians such as The Arrogant Worms, Three Dead Trolls in a Baggie and Bowser and Blue. Satire is arguably the primary characteristic of Canadian humour, evident in each of these threads, and uniting various genres and regional cultural differences. Humber College in Toronto and the École nationale de l'humour in Montreal offer post-secondary programmes in comedy writing and performance. Montreal is also home to the bilingual (English and French) Just For Laughs festival and to the Just for Laughs museum, a bilingual, international museum of comedy.
