The dramatic debatein the clos- ing hours of the 1961 session of the Legislature, involv- ing our late lamented supporter George Hobbs, Alex. Matthew,Ray Perrault and the Premier, has brought forth a clear and welcome statement in the Speech from the Throne inthe 1962 Session, of the government’s intention to develop a University hospital, for diagnosis, treatment,teaching and research, on thePoint Grey campus. Reactions. Readers’ reactions to my suggestions for further action,outlined on this page in theprevious issue, have been very interesting. The Vancouver Sun ranan editorialentitled “Alumni Eye the Hustings”, concerning the need for more Alumni as candidates for public office. A very thoughtful suggestion hascome from a graduate in Eastern Canada on the subject of trade union contributions to university scholarship and buildingfunds. Another member has suggested that unions be challenged to give block contributions equal in amount to those given to U.B.C. by their employing companies. Further, a company manager has underlined the need forrecognition by management and executives that employees should be able to sit in the provincial Legislature without losing their jobs. The forthrightremarks of theVictoria College Counciland Principal Hickman on trying to provide first class educationwith bargain basement budgets have our hearty endorsement.

It provides an overview of the magazine’s 35-year history, as well as an analysis of its current state: editorial, advertising, circulation, readership and competition. The report also offers an inside account of the strategic planning that went into the relaunch, including: findings from a July 2002 competitive analysis of Toronto Life, Canada’s preeminent city magazine; highlights from a November 2002 Vancouver magazine subscriber survey; and a chronicle of various planning meetings, held within Transcontinental Media West, between July and December 2002. This report evaluates Vancouver magazine’s prospects for a successful relaunch within the framework of the two city magazine studies, each of which addresses the role and purpose of a city magazine. Questions and findings from those studies are then posed to three editors of Vancouver magazine (past and present), who offer an analysis of the city magazine research within the context of their specific experiences at the magazine.

  • A Bibliography
    Canadian Children's Literature 11 975: A Bibliography JBHIVR. SBRFLEET & MAR YRU. This bibliography attempts to record those books published in 1975- CCL's founding year-which are directly related to Canadian children's literature. It will be followed, in the future, by bibliographies for 1976 and subsequent years. Our main goal has been to make the list as complete as possible. Accordingly, we have come up with a total of host 300 items-both in French and Enghsh-for 1975. Still, though our investigations have been extensive, it is possible that errors or omissions may have arisen, especially in a few instances where we were unable for one reason or another to obtain an examination copy of s particular work. Where such oversights exist, we would be grateful if our readers would let us know so that corrections can be made in future bibliographies. Generally speaking, the book titles are indicative of the content. In order to remove one possible source of confusion, however, ihose books which are neither fiction nor poetry nor drama-i.e., those books not com- monly categorized as "creative writings-have been signified by the letters "n.f." (non-fiction) following the details of publication for the entry. Cer- tain items for professional reading-e.g., the new edition of Sheila Egoff's The Republic of Childhood-have also been included in this category. Especially in the case of non-fiction, it may sometimes be question- able whether a particular book is more appropriate to an adult or an adoles- cent reader. We have tried-while still being judicious-also to be reasonably open to the range of interests and needs, often quite sophisticated, that many children and teenagers have.

According to David Suzuki, the 74-year-old environmentalist who re- ceived the 18th annual George Wood- cock Lifetime Achievement Award in February, it all comes down to science. If politicians had listened to Suzuki and other scientific-minded futurists about thirty years ago, Kyoto Protocol standards would have been achievable.
