Le Conseil a eu l’avantage, au cours de cette période, d’être sous- trait au souci du lendemain, ses revenus lui étant complètement assurés par une caisse de dotation. Mais un revenu fixe ne va pas sans inconvénient, comme il a pu le constater à I’expérience. Comment, en effet, une insti- tution ayant précisément pour mission de favoriser la croissance et le pro- grès accepterait-elle sans déchoir de se voir réduite peu à peu à l’impuis- sance, alors que les besoins de son public ne cessent d’augmenter? Sentant diminuer ses chances d’obtenir un nouvel apport de fonds pour sa caisse de dotation, le Conseil en est venu à se demander si la liberté d’action dont il continuait de jouir ne pourrait pas être garantie par sa propre ma- turité tout autant que par le détachement politique que lui conférait la loi. Les subventions de la Commission du Centenaire et les fonds consacrés par le Ministère des Affaires extérieures à notre rayonnement artistique à l’étranger ont apporté aux arts un encouragement inespéré, mais ces mesures d’exception n’ont guère allégé les difhcultés fondamentales du monde artistique. Quant aux humanités et aux sciences sociales, leur situa- tion était si désespérée qu’il ne leur restait plus, semble-t-il, qu’à réclamer une intervention entièrement nouvelle, complètement distincte de l’action du Conseil. Nul doute que le rapport présenté par M. Bladen à l’Asso- ciation des universités et collèges du Canada aurait envisagé des solutions aussi extrêmes si le Conseil n’avait pris les devants et demandé des secours d’urgence, laissant au gouvernement le soin d’en déterminer les modalités pratiques. Le parlement, invité à approuver un crédit extraordinaire de 10 millions de dollars, a acquiescé sans hésitation le 2 avril 1965. Cette somme ne devait pas être ajoutée aux 50 millions de la Caisse de dotation, mais de- vait être dépensée - intérêt et principal - dans l’espace de quelques années. Elle a permis au Conseil de doubler son budget pour l’année à l’étude, et de retrouver presque la stature qu’il avait aux yeux de sa clientèle huit ans auparavant. Nous avons exprimé dans notre rapport de l’an dernier la gratitude du Conseil et celle de ses bénéficiaires, mais nous voulons la réitérer ici au moment où les résultats commençent à se manifester. Le prochain rapport annuel du Conseil tentera d’évaluer ce geste, qui ne se résume pas à une simple correction des difficultés actuelles. Désor- mais, on semble admettre en effet que le Conseil ne saurait s’acquitter de son rôle avec des revenus plus ou moins fixes. Tout semble laisser prévoir, de la part des pouvoirs publics, une augmentation graduelle de l’aide à la vie artistique et intellectuelle, en vue d’assurer d’une part la croissance des arts de création et d’interprétation, et d’autre part le relèvement du 1 niveau de la recherche et des études savantes dans le domaine des huma- nités et des sciences sociales. Le Conseil étudie en ce moment la situation en vue de présenter au gouvernement de solides arguments en faveur d’un régime de financement permanent. II est regrettable que le tournant le plus important dans la vie du Con- seil ait coïncidé avec le départ des deux dirigeants qui avaient tant fait pour le préparer. Le Conseil tient à exprimer ici, au nom des artistes et des universitaires du pays, tout ce qu’il doit à MM. Albert Trueman et Eugène Bussière, son premier directeur et son premier directeur associé, qui ont mis un remarquable esprit d’entreprise au service du “nationalisme intellectuel”, pour emprunter une expression chère à M. Claude Bissell. Le 15 avril 1965, MM. Jean Boucher et Peter M. Dwyer leur ont succédé. A l’automne M. Graham Towers, qui avait dirigé de main de maître, depuis le début, les destinées du Comité de placements du Conseil, a de- mandé lui aussi a être remplacé. A la suite de sa démission, reçue avec beaucoup de regret, M. J. G. Hungerford, lui aussi membre du Comité depuis le début, lui a succédé à la présidence, et M. Louis Hébert, prési- dent de la Banque canadienne nationale, a été nommé au Comité. Il y a eu aussi des changements dans la composition du Conseil lui-même. Le mandat du Brigadier J. S. Wardell s’est terminé le 14 février 1965; celui de M. Luc Lacourcière et de M. Gerald M. Winter, le 13 mai; celui de M. Frank Lynch-Staunton, le 18 mai; et celui de M. Marcel Faribault, le 11 février 1966. Par décret ministériel, plusieurs nouveaux membres ont été nommés pour trois ans: Mme Stanley Dowhan, le Rév. C. H. Forsyth, M. W. P. Gregory, M. Gilles Pelletier, M. Claude Robillard et M. 1. A. Rum- boldt. En outre, les membres suivants ont vu leur mandat renouvelé pour trois ans: M. Trevor F. Moore et M. Samuel Steinberg. Outre les changements qu’il a apportés à ses programmes et qui sont détaillés dans le corps du présent rapport, le Conseil a adopté, sur le plan de l’organisation, deux mesures importantes en vue de faire face à une tâche de plus en plus lourde: il a consolidé les rouages qui lui permettent de consulter des experts de l’extérieur, et il a engagé quelques spécialistes pour renforcer ses cadres permanents. Le Conseil sait depuis toujours qu’en raison de la nature de sa tâche, il doit, pour exercer une action efficace et bien accordée à la réalité, y associer des représentants de son public. C’est là une nécessité absolue, car autrement il lui serait impossible d’élaborer ses programmes avec précision, d’atteindre tous les candidats en puissance, de faire évaluer les demandes de façon experte, et de faire comprendre et accepter ses décisions par I’en- semble du public. Jusqu’ici, il avait eu recours à une série de comités de cinq membres, mais la multiplicité des comités posait des problèmes de coordination et ne permettait guère ni de faire la synthèse des jugements, 2 Avant-propos ni d’évaluer les projets hors concours, ni d’avoir des consultations suivies sur des questions d’orientation générale. Pour toutes ces raisons le Conseil a fait un grand pas l’automne dernier en créant deux groupes consultatifs permanents comprenant chacun une quinzaine de spécialistes, Sun pour les arts et l’autre pour les humanités et les sciences sociales (voir page 103).

DEWAR Abstract: This article argues that the lines separating different modes of thought on the centre-left of the political spectrum—liberalism, social democracy, and socialism, broadly speaking—are permeable, and that they share many features in common. The example of Tom Kent illustrates the argument. A leading adviser to Lester B. Pearson and the Liberal Party from the late 1950s to the early 1970s, Kent argued for expanding social security in a way that had a number of affinities with social democracy. In his paper for the Study Conference on National Problems in 1960, where he set out his philosophy of social security, and in his actions as an adviser to the Pearson government, he supported social assis- tance, universal contributory pensions, and national, comprehensive medical insurance. In close asso- ciation with his philosophy, he also believed that political parties were instruments of policy-making. Keywords: political ideas, Canada, twentieth century, liberalism, social democracy Résumé : Cet article soutient que les lignes séparant les différents modes de pensée du centre gauche de l’éventail politique — libéralisme, social-démocratie et socialisme, généralement parlant — sont perméables et qu’ils partagent de nombreuses caractéristiques.

This practice is analyzed in Canada between 1963 and 1978, a period of continual Progressive Conservative Opposition. The under• lying question is whether shadow cabinet organization has become more or less institutionalized during the period. In the introduction Samuel Huntington's four tests of institutionalization are outlined. They were used in assessing Canadian shadow cabinet institutionalization. To operationalize the tests for this study it proved use• ful to analyze the institution of the Canadian cabinet system along these dimensions.

  • How Canada's History Hall Has Evolved Over 50 Years
    Wallace-Casey, C. (2018) ‘Constructing patriotism: How Canada’s History Hall has evolved over 50 years’. History Education Research Journal, 15 (2): 292–307. DOI https://doi.org/10.18546/HERJ.15.2.10 Constructing patriotism: How Canada’s History Hall has evolved over 50 years Cynthia Wallace-Casey* – University of Ottawa, Canada Abstract In this article, I illustrate how the national narrative in Canada’s Museum of History has evolved over 50 years. Located in the national capital of Ottawa, the new Canada’s History Hall presents a concise overview of a nation, stretching from time immemorial to the present. It was opened on 1 July 2017 as a signature exhibition in celebration of Canada’s sesquicentennial. It also represents a fourth manifestation of a national museum narrative for Canada. From humble beginnings in 1967 (when Canada celebrated its centennial), the narrative has changed substantially in response to national policies and societal values. Adopting a critical discourse analysis methodology, and drawing from archival evidence, I analyse how this national narrative has evolved. Canada’s History Hall presents Canadian students with a concise national template for remembering Canada’s past. Over the past 50 years, this narrative has changed, as curators have employed artefacts and museum environments to construct patriotic pride in their nation. Until 2017, this narrative was blatantly exclusionary of Indigenous voices. More recently, the Truth and Reconciliation Commission of Canada has called for reconciliation in education, including public forums for education. The Canadian Museum of History has responded to this call by weaving Indigenous voices into the national narrative of the new Canadian History Hall.

Volpp Professor Marianne Constable Fall 2015 Abstract Partial Histories: Constituting a Conflict between Women's Equality Rights and Indigenous Sovereignty in Canada by Genevieve Painter Doctor of Philosophy in Jurisprudence and Social Policy University of California, Berkeley Professor Calvin K. Morrill, Chair This dissertation is a history of an idea, a retelling of a simple story about an idea as a complicated one, and an explanation of the effects of believing the simple story. From 1869 to 1985, to be an Indian in the eyes of the Canadian state – to be a “status Indian” – a person had to have a status Indian father. The Canadian government registered a population of Indigenous people as status Indians and decided that Indian status passed along the male line. If an Indian man married a non-Indian woman, his wife gained status and their children were status Indians. In contrast, if a status Indian woman married a non-Indian man, she lost her Indian status, and her children were not status Indians.

This omission causes real hardship to those Canadians who are not well-served by the existing patchwork of limited provincial plans and private insurance. It also represents significant forgone benefits in terms of governments’ ability to negotiate drug prices, make expensive new drugs available to patients on an equitable basis, and provide integrated health services regardless of therapy type or location. This paper examines Canada’s historical failure to adopt universal pharmaceutical insurance on a national basis, with particular emphasis on the role of public and elite ideas about its supposed lack of affordability. This legacy provides novel lessons about the barriers to reform and potential methods for overcoming them. The paper argues that reform is most likely to be successful if it explicitly addresses entrenched ideas about pharmacare’s affordability and its place in the health system.

  • The Public Dimension of Broadcasting: Learning from the Canadian Experience

PUB DATE Jul 86 NOTE 47p.; Paper presented at the International Television Studies Conference (London, England, July 10-12, 1986). PUB TYPE Reports - Descriptive (141) -- Speeches/Conference Papers (150) EDRS PRICE MF01/PCO2 Plus Postage. DESCRIPTORS *Broadcast Industry; Communications; Community Role; Cultural Influences; Foreign Countries; Government Role; History; *Mass Media; Nationalism; *Political Attitudes; Programing (Broadcast); *Public Service; Television Research IDENTIFIERS *Canada; *Private Sector ABSTRACT The political context surrounding Canadian broadcasting dramatically changed following the election of a conservative government in 1984, and Canada's current broadcasting debate is marked by national and special interest concerns. While an important social aspect of the system is its profoundly undemocratic nature, the constituent elements of a democratic public medium exist. In dealing with the democratization of communications, it is first necessary to clarify the place of communications in democratic public life, then recognize the public character of the media. The Canadian broadcasting experience has contributed its share to obscuring the emancipatory potential of broadcasting, but it also contains the seeds of its own antithesis, and the struggles around it provide many instructive elements of an alternative approach to broadcasting based on a reconstituted public dimension. This public dimension can be fully realized only if a number of critical areas are transformed. From a critical analysis of the Canadian experience and the alternative practices and proposals that have marked it, there emerge some elements of a more coherent, responsive, direct system of public broadcasting.

  • Three Essays on Social Assistance in Canada: a Multidisciplinary Focus on Ontario Singles
    Three Essays on Social Assistance in Canada: A Multidisciplinary Focus on Ontario Singles by Nicholas Falvo A thesis submitted to the Faculty of Graduate and Postdoctoral Affairs in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Public Policy Carleton University Ottawa, Ontario © 2015 Nicholas Falvo ii Abstract A single employable adult relying on social assistance in Ontario receives approximately $7,500 annually on which to live. Yet, in spite of this very low amount, singles make up Ontario’s fastest growing household group on social assistance. In 2012, a review of the province’s social assistance system recommended an immediate $100 increase in monthly benefit levels for singles. All of this raises three key questions: 1) How did Ontario’s social assistance system develop into its current form? 2) What do social assistance recipients do with increased monthly benefits? 3) To what extent might increased benefit levels lead to higher caseloads? The present dissertation comprises three essays—each one looking to answer one of the above questions, and each with a different methodological approach. Each essay also has a different geographical focus: the first looks exclusively at Ontario; the second looks at Ontario’s welfare system while interviewing a sample of Toronto-based recipients; and the third looks at six provinces, including Ontario. In the first essay I gave consideration to the emergence and development of Ontario’s social assistance system. With the 1965-1975 period being its ultimate focus, I found that the Great Depression prompted senior levels of government in Canada to spend more on income assistance, and that the strength of Canada’s post-World War II economy made it more palatable for both the Canadian and Ontario governments to expand social assistance coverage and increase benefit levels.

  • Canadian Committee for the History of the Second World War: First
    Canadian Committee for the History of the Second World War ⁄ Comité Canadien de l' Histoire de la Deuxième Guerre mondiale The first conference ⁄ La première conférence at ⁄ au Collège Militaire Royal de Saint-Jean 20 - 22 Oct 1977 Proceedings Compte rendu CANADIAN COMMITTEE FOR THE HISTORY OF THE SECOND WORLD WAR Proceedings of the First Conference Held at Collège militaire royal de Saint-Jean Saint-Jean, Quebec 20-22 October, 1977 These proceedings are being distributed with the permission of the authors of the various papers given at our first conference. because of the disparate nature of the subjects it was considered preferable not to seek a publisher for the proceedings, but rather to limit distribution to members of the Canadian Committee and certain other interested people, such as the president and secretary of the international committee. Consequently no attempt has been made to link the papers to an overall theme, and there has not been the rigorous editing that would have accompanied publication. It was a suggestion to hold a conference on the Dieppe landings in 1942 that prompted these meetings. When it was found that there was inadequate interest among historians in Canada for an exhaustive examination of the Dieppe question, or even of a reconsideration of Canadian military operations in the Second World War, we decided to build a conference around the most active research under way in Canada.
