But I hope that’s where you’ll find yourself as you sit down to read the articles and reviews we’ve Sponsors included here for you. Charles Baillie We have some interesting pieces in this issue for you to enjoy. Marylynn Miller Oke and Fleck Family Foundation Friesens I had the opportunity to chat with cousins Margie Wolfe, publisher of Second Story Press, Mary Macchiusi and Pnina Bat Zvi, the host of a top-rated current-affairs program in Israel, about the Perna Siegrist Design Rawlinson Moving & Storage writing and publishing of The Promise, a book about their mothers, Rachel and Toby, and John Spray their time spent in a concentration camp during World War II. While the process certainly Sylvan Learning TD Bank Group wasn’t easy, both Margie and Pnina think their mothers would be proud. They hope that by sharing the story with students at schools, synagogues and libraries they will teach them Funders about the consequences of hate. Canada Council for the Arts After hearing Deborah Ellis present at the 2018 IBBY Congress in Athens, Kathy Stinson Canadian Heritage (Canada Book Fund) Manitoba Department of Culture, posted a portion of Deb’s speech on her blog. Someone then suggested she contact me Heritage and Tourism and ask if I’d like to share it in Canadian Children’s Book News, which resulted in my asking Ontario Arts Council Ontario Arts Foundation Kathy if she’d like to expand that piece into a profile about Deb. Kathy was happy to do so, Toronto Public Library Deb agreed, and the end result is the beautiful piece you’ll read in this issue. Well-known for the number of works she’s had published and the accolades she’s received, Deb is even more of an inspiration for her stance around politics and social movements. I hope you’ll enjoy learning more about Deb as much as I did.

Her cousin Margie, daughter to Toby, grew up in Toronto. She is an award-winning publisher, producing feminist- inspired social justice and human rights books for adults and young readers at Second Story Press, which she co-founded in 1980. It seems they were ultimately destined to tell unforgettable stories. Giving voice to whispers of memories In The Promise, young Rachel and Toby were sent to Aus- chwitz-Birkenau concentration and extermination camp after their parents had been taken, then killed at Treblinka. The girls witnessed daily atrocities and became well aware of the unfathomable consequences if one misbehaved or became too sick to work. “I started to hear about this story from my mom at a very young age,” recalls Pnina. “But, I had it in bits and pieces. As I grew older, I learned the whole story. I wanted to tell it to young readers. Maybe they will feel what I felt when I wrote it, Pnina Bat Zvi Margie Wolfe or when I heard it first.” Although Pnina repeatedly asked Rachel and Toby about writing their story, the sisters were very reluctant.

  • Welcome Tofriesens!
    welcome to friesens! While at Friesens, we want your color approval experience to be a pleasant one. While we view every project that enters our plant as important, having you in- house for a Press Check on your project provides a unique, interactive opportu- nity for our employee-owners to better meet and hopefully exceed your highest print expectations. If you are doing a Press Check for the first time, the task may appear to be a daunting one. However, rest assured we’ve done it many, many times and we will use that experience to make it seem like you’ve been doing Press Checks forever. If you're a Press Check 'veteran', we look forward to your input and collaboration. EFFECTIVE COMMUNICATION PRESSCHECKSThe key to a smooth Press Check is communication. We will meet with you before your Press Check begins to discuss your particular objectives. We will ask you if you want help from our Press Operators and if you know what is–and what is not –possible on press. Please feel free to ask any questions about terms, procedures and events that you don’t understand. Page sequence, color registration and marks are common concerns. If there are some critical elements of a book that need special attention, be sure to let our operator know. All information you give to us is valuable…so please don’t hold back. If there is more than one person coming to do the Press Check, it is helpful for our operators to have a clear understanding of who will make the final decision, as we all see color a little differently.

  • Nudging Public Policy to Promote Growth in the Social Enterprise Sector: a Manitoba Case Study
    Nudging Public Policy to Promote Growth in the Social Enterprise Sector: A Manitoba Case Study by Maria C. Gheorghe A thesis submitted to the Faculty of Graduate Studies of the University of Manitoba in partial fulfillment of the requirements of the degree of MASTER OF ARTS Department of Political Studies University of Manitoba Winnipeg Copyright © 2021 by Maria C. Gheorghe Abstract Social enterprises are important for local economic development in Canada and have an impact that goes far beyond their financial contributions to the economy. As a relatively new field though, public policy is needed to help grow the social enterprise sector. The purpose of this thesis is to assess whether nudging, an approach from behavioural economics, could used as part of public policy aimed at promoting growth in this sector. To answer this question, this thesis engages in a case study of the Manitoba Social Enterprise Strategy (MSES) and its related policy documents (MSES 2017 and MSES 2018). This thesis uses MSES Pillar 3: Expand Market Opportunities as a litmus test for whether nudging, vis-à-vis public policy, can promote growth in Manitoba’s social enterprise sector. Nudging is defined using the framework of choice architecture, addressing non-financial barriers, and experimentation. The key findings of this research are that nudging is already a part of successful public policy which helps promote growth in Manitoba’s social enterprise sector and opportunities exist to use nudging to expand market opportunities for local social enterprises. Both these findings support this thesis’ central argument that nudging should be used to promote growth in the social enterprise sector.
