WE Day is part of WE— a movement that brings people together and gives them the tools to change the world locally and globally, achieving transformative outcomes for themselves and others. Alongside partners led by National Co-Title Sponsors RBC and TELUS, WE Day Atlantic Canada will bring together more than 8,000 local change- makers with inspirational speakers and world-renowned performers to celebrate their commitment to taking action on issues in their own backyards and global causes they are passionate about. Taking the stage this year is a cast of new faces and returning WE Day favourites, including Margaret Trudeau, Rick Hansen, Joseph Boyden, Roméo Dallaire, Kardinal Offishall, Tyler Shaw, Jully Black, Celebrity Marauders and more. Also taking the WE Day stage is Halifax native, Juno Award-winning Canadian hip hop artist and producer, Classified. Co-hosted by Much/E! host Tyrone Edwards and ETALK reporter and Much host, Liz Trinnear, this star-studded lineup will join international activists and WE co- founders, Craig and Marc Kielburger, to share their passion for change and energize the crowd with unforgettable performances and motivational speeches to inspire another year of action. Young people in Atlantic Canada are a driving force in empowering their community. By taking action on issues that matter most to them, students in the community have contributed to finding solution-based approaches to assist issues of hunger and homelessness through food drives like WE Scare Hunger and other creative initiatives. Students are helping Syrian refugees feel more welcome and comfortable by hosting welcome parties for new community members and raising awareness about the crisis in Syria. “Every time I take part at WE Day, I am amazed by all the positive impacts youth have created using their passion and commitment to make a difference in the world,” said novelist and short story writer, Joseph Boyden. “From coast to coast, thousands of youth are using WE as a platform to have their voices heard and together help build a better future for tomorrow.” Making WE Day a true celebration of youth taking action, young people with inspiring stories join the WE Day Atlantic Canada lineup, including Hani Al Moulia. Although legally blind, he is an accomplished photographer, promising student, and is an example of achievement in the face of adversity. Along with his parents and siblings, the Al Moulia family made the dangerous and uncertain trek from the Syrian city of Homs to Canada. Arriving in Canada in June 2015, Hani now shares the photographs of his family’s journey to their new home in Regina, Saskatchewan, in hopes that people will embrace the power of togetherness. Hani is one of many who will be sharing their incredible story on the WE Day stage. “WE Day celebrates the amazing young people who have taken action at home and around the world to create sustainable change for a better tomorrow,” said Craig Kielburger, co-founder of WE. “Standing in a stadium full of passionate youth will affirm your belief that real change can happen—and is happening every single day right here in Atlantic Canada. This past school year more than 400 schools and groups across Atlantic Canada made an incredible impact in their own backyards and in communities around the world through their commitment and passion for change.” WE Day events bring people together, filling stadiums around the globe to experience the greatest classroom in the world for a full day, live event. People can’t buy a ticket to WE Day—they earn their entry through service, by taking action on one local and one global cause of their choice. WE Day is free of charge to the thousands of students and educators in attendance across Canada, thanks to the generous support of partners led by National Co-Title Sponsors RBC and TELUS. WE Day engages students of all socioeconomic backgrounds through WE Schools, a yearlong educational program that provides schools and community groups with educational resources and student-led campaigns designed to enhance a school’s existing social initiatives or spark new ones. WE Schools encourages students to further their curricular learning and develop life skills for success. Young people are challenged to research and make an impact on at least one local and one global issue, and supported with curricular resources, service campaigns and mentorship programs to help them become change-makers. In the 2015/2016 school year students and teachers from across Atlantic Canada participated in remarkable social change. More than 400 schools and groups in Atlantic Canada improved the world through WE Schools, volunteering over almost 255,000 hours and raising over $696,000 in support of global issues and local causes including the welcoming and inclusion of Syrian refugees, bringing awareness to mental health issues and the collection of food items for local food banks. As only one example: Sunnyside Elementary School created awareness of mental health in their local community through an evening of Fine Arts which featured art pieces created by the students and inspired by famous artists who struggled with mental health. Sunnyside Elementary also reached their annual $5,000 goal for Kenya this year through the WE Schools, WE Are Silent campaign for which they hosted a non-stop dance-a-thon. Alumni studies show that after leaving the WE Schools program, 80 percent of students continue to volunteer, 83 percent continue to donate to charities and 79 percent (of those over 18) voted in the last national election. A global movement of 2.4 million young people strong, youth involved in the WE Movement have raised $62 million for more than 2,400 local and global organizations, volunteered 19.9 million hours for local and global causes and collected over 7.6 million pounds of food through service learning programs and campaigns. Anyone can find their place in the WE Movement and commit to making a change in the world. The first step is to take the WE Pledge at WE.org. By taking the pledge, participants are joining the WE Community and making a commitment to live WE every day. For every pledge taken on WE.org, $10 will be donated to local and global programs. Across Canada, WE Day and WE Schools are supported by partners led by National Co-Title Sponsors RBC and TELUS. RBC hopes to inspire every young Canadian to #Make150Count by celebrating the contributions and community spirit of youth in recognition of Canada’s 150th anniversary; TELUS supports the We give where we live® initiative, believing in the power of technology and communications to improve the lives of Canadians.

    May 26, 2016 BACKGROUNDER 2016 Coca-Cola Stage lineup Christian Hudson Appearing Thursday, July 7, 7 p.m. Website: http://www.christianhudsonmusic.com/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/ChristianHudsonMusic Twitter: www.twitter.com/CHsongs While most may know Christian Hudson by his unique and memorable performances at numerous venues across Western Canada, others seem to know him by his philanthropy. This talented young man won the prestigious Calgary Stampede Talent Show last summer but what was surprising to many was he took his prize money of $10,000 and donated it all to the local drop-in centre. He was touched by the stories he was told by a few people experiencing homelessness he had met one night prior to the contest’s finale. His infectious originals have caught the ears of many in the industry that are now assisting his career. He was honoured to receive 'The Spirit of Calgary' Award at the inaugural Vigor Awards for his generosity. Hudson will soon be touring Canada upon the release of his first single on national radio.

  • The Music Distribution Industry in Canada 2006
    THE MUSIC DISTRIBUTION INDUSTRY IN CANADA 2006 BY LARRY LEBLANC FEB. 2006 This report has been prepared by Larry LeBlanc for the Canadian Association of Broadcasters (CAB). The purpose of this document is to provide a profile of the English and French-language components of distribution of the Canadian-owned label and artist sector as well as Canadian artists signed or distributed by multinationals in Canada. The report specifically discusses changes in the music distribution sector in Canada since 1998. As well, such newly emerging factors as the rise of widespread Internet-based downloading; the rise of music subscription services; and the use of ringtones, ringtunes and podcasting in affecting music sales are also discussed. The report indicates that Canadian music retail has become more consolidated and more selective with product choices. Major music retailers carry a different product mix today than a decade ago. There are fewer music CDs, and more film-related DVD and computer game product. Although radio remains a critical vehicle for the Canadian record industry, labels and retailers cite a waning impact of the medium on overall sales. The study is based on a review of existing documentation, secondary research as well as analysis and findings drawn from 11 interviews conducted by Larry LeBlanc, as the principal source of primary research. Music OVERVIEW Canada's small market size, and a sizable support infrastructure is enabling the domestic industry to develop distinct acts for audiences home and abroad. In the past three years, global markets have embraced a new wave of formidable Canadian English-language rock acts including: Arcade Fire, Broken Social Scene, Death From Above 1979, Feist, Stars, the Dears, Alexisonfire, Metric, Bedouin Soundclash, and Hot Hot Heat; as well as such French-language acts as Corneille, and Lynda Lemay.

  • The Influence of Rap/Hip-Hop Music: a Mixed-Method Analysis by Gretchen Cundiff — 71
    The Influence of Rap/Hip-Hop Music: A Mixed-Method Analysis by Gretchen Cundiff — 71 The Influence of Rap/Hip-Hop Music: A Mixed-Method Analysis on Audience Perceptions of Misogynistic Lyrics and the Issue of Domestic Violence Gretchen Cundiff* Strategic Communications Elon University Abstract Using a qualitative content analysis and online survey, this research examined how college students perceive and respond to the portrayal of women when exposed to misogynistic lyrics. Based on cultivation theory, this study analyzed the lyrical content of popular rap and hip-hop songs (n=20) on Billboard’s “Hot 100” chart between 2000 and 2010. Song lyrics were classified into one or more of the following coding categories: demeaning language, rape/sexual assault, sexual conquest and physical violence. Themes of power over, objectification of and violence against women were identified as prevalent throughout the content analysis sample. Survey results indicated a positive correlation between misogynous thinking and rap/hip-hop consumption. I. Introduction This study examined the culture of rap/hip-hop music and how misogynistic lyrical messages influ- enced listeners’ attitudes toward intimate partner violence. Adams and Fuller (2006) define misogyny as the “hatred or disdain of women” and “an ideology that reduces women to objects for men’s ownership, use, or abuse” (p. 939). Popular American hip-hop and rap artists, such as Eminem, Ludacris and Ja Rule, have increasingly depicted women as objects of violence or male domination by communicating that “submission is a desirable trait in a woman” (Stankiewicz & Rosselli, 2008, p. 581). These songs condone male hegemony in which “men find the domination and exploitation of women and other men to be not only expected, but actu- ally demanded” (Prushank, 2007, p.
