  • CHANGING on the FLY Situating Multiculturalism, Citizenship, and Hockey Through the Voices of South Asian Canadians
    CHANGING ON THE FLY Situating multiculturalism, citizenship, and hockey through the voices of South Asian Canadians EXECUTIVE SUMMARY BY COURTNEY SZTO CHANGING ON THE FLY Situating multiculturalism, citizenship, and hockey through the voices of South Asian Canadians Hockey and multiculturalism are often referred to as defining features of Canadian culture; yet, rarely do we question the relationship and tensions between these two ideas. This research project examines the growing significance of hockey in Canada’s South Asian communities (defined as those with ancestry from India, Pakistan, Bangladesh, Nepal, Sri Lanka, as well as former “British India”—the West Indies, Fiji, and East Africa). It discusses issues surrounding “race” and racism in Canadian sport and highlights the value of ethnic media by unpacking the growth and popularity of the Hockey Night in Canada Punjabi Edition broadcast. The observations to follow are the result of fieldwork conducted at local hockey games and events, interviews with representatives from the Hockey Night Punjabi broadcast, and South Asian Canadian hockey players, parents, and coaches located in the Lower Mainland of British Columbia. The goals of this project were to (1) inject more “colour” into hockey’s historically white dominated representations, and (2) encourage alternative and multiple narratives about hockey and citizenship by asking which citizens are able to contribute to the stories and legacies that make up our national understanding. Some of the major themes that emerged from this project include: a pattern of dismissing on-ice racial slurs as gamesmanship; a reluctance to name any particular incident as racist; a feeling of resentment from white hockey parents directed at wealthier South Asian participants; and a consistent editing of racialized contributions from hockey’s overall history.

  • The First Women's World Ice Hockey Championship and the Emergence of the Routine of Women's Elite Hockey by Patrick Alexand
    The First Women’s World Ice Hockey Championship and the Emergence of the Routine of Women’s Elite Hockey by Patrick Alexander Reid A thesis submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Faculty of Kinesiology, Sport and Recreation University of Alberta © Patrick Alexander Reid, 2018 Abstract Ice hockey is Canada’s national winter sport (Government of Canada, 1982). While men’s hockey has been an event in the Olympic Games since 1920, women’s hockey was only added as an event in 1998 (IIHF, 2016). A watershed moment that advanced the growth of women’s hockey was the inaugural Women’s World Hockey Championship (WWHC), held in Ottawa, Canada, in March of 1990. Sociologist Nancy Theberge (2000) proclaimed the event was an important turning point in women’s ice hockey. It proved to be the test event for women’s hockey to be considered for inclusion in the winter Olympic Games, an accomplishment that would contribute to the legitimation of women’s hockey as an elite sport. The purpose of this current research is to investigate the WWHC in detail as a case study. Primary data encompassing the 1990 WWHC files of the Canadian Amateur Hockey Association (CAHA) were made available for this study with the permission from CAHA president M. Costello. This study benefits from the data sources and insights available by the author who served as the event’s general manager. The historical description of the event utilizing data from the CAHA files corrected some misconceptions previously reported in the literature.
