    OPUNTIA 434 Late January 2019 Opuntia is published by Dale Speirs, Calgary, Alberta. It is posted on www.efanzines.com and www.fanac.org. My e-mail address is: [email protected] When sending me an emailed letter of comment, please include your name and town in the message. ABOUT THE COVER: 8 Street SW under the railroad tracks in downtown Calgary. The transcontinental railroad is the southern boundary line of the downtown core. The other side is the Beltline district. Tens of thousands of people live on each side of the tracks in condo towers. In the absence of an oil pipeline to the Pacific coast, each day numerous kilometres-long tanker trains like this one head west along these tracks to the tidewater. AS I STROLLED OUT ONE DAY 2019-01-12 photos by Dale Speirs In the last issue of this zine, I remarked that January was a dull time in Calgary. I wrote too soon, for the day after I posted that issue, the Yellow Vest Convoy came through the city in support of the oil pipelines. As I strolled down the Stephen Avenue pedestrian mall where it terminates in front of City Hall, there was a crowd at the intersection. The photos sum up the event. 2 Justin Trudeau has made himself even more unpopular out west than his father Pierre, an achievement that took some doing. Both father and son did it by messing up petroleum policy, Pierre with his National Energy Policy, and Justin by his timidity in dealing with anti-pipeline groups funded by foreign petroleum interests.

Yet many The Banality of National believed they were overdressed as if for a wedding, or as some stated “out Bollywooding Bollywood.” Many also Identity: Justin Trudeau’s perceived it as a lack of recognition of the “regular” Indian —people who identify as Indian, yet do not normally wear Clothes in India the types of clothing the Trudeau family was wearing. Trudeau’s appropriation of Indian national identity through Kennen Sparks clothing helped him in some cases, yet overall it was deemed a “distraction” because using national identity in 02/28/2018 such a way can be a misrepresentation. National identity can be useful as a political capital, yet the continual over- the-top use of it becomes, as one critic put it, “desperate” because it is not a stable foundation in a geopolitical sense as national identity is fluid and contested. While it may seem trivial to talk about clothes and their importance to national identity, they form an important aspect of geopolitics because issues such as this play a big role in shaping geopolitical codes. National identity not only affects how people see themselves but also how they view others as well--which affects how a state chooses its friends and enemies and then justifies its actions to Wikimedia Commons: Hamandir Sahib (Golden Temple) the world.

  • “Je T'aime, Papa”: Theatricality and Sincerity in Justin Trudeau's 2000
    “Je t’aime, Papa”: Theatricality and the Fifth Canon of Rhetoric in Justin Trudeau’s Eulogy for his Father, Pierre Elliott Trudeau Tracy Whalen University of Winnipeg Rhetorical theory has long engaged with—and has been quick to distinguish itself from—theatricality, particularly in discussions of the fifth canon (pronuntiatio, hypokrisis, or delivery).1 Aristotle connects the art of delivery and the “actor’s art” in the Rhetoric, but maintains the distinction between speaker/rhetor and actor; the rhetor is advised to make clarity, not flattery, the guiding principle of good speaking. Aristotle laments the state of oratory under democracy, where speakers, he felt, pandered to the crowd through theatrical flourish: “The honours of dramatic contests fall, as a rule, to the actors; and, just as, on the stage, the actors are at present of more importance than the poets, so it is, owing to the vices of society, in the contests of civil life” (1403b). Pseudo Cicero’s Ad C. Herennium continues the anti-theatrical bias (not to mention class bias) in its discussion of physical movement: “Accordingly the facial expression should show modesty and animation, and the gestures should not be conspicuous for either elegance or grossness, lest we give the impression that we are either actors or day labourers” (III. XV.26). Jody Enders traces from Greco-Roman times a persistent tradition of equating theatricality not only with bad rhetoric, but also with the “emasculation of eloquence” (255). She points to the castrating language of Quintilian and Tacitus, who decry a once- rigorous rhetoric that, in the form of histrionic delivery and theatrical declamation, had 1 George Kennedy writes, “The prevailing meaning of hypokrisis in Greek is acting and the regular word for an actor is hypokrites” (218, note 1).
