One the one hand, some changes have been realized, whereas in other areas, you requested that we maintain our Club's tremendous heritage and sense of tradition by staying with the status quo.

Quatre juges se sont retournées aux auditions à l’aveugle, suivis des duels, chants de bataille, quarts de finale, demi-finales, finale; un parcours complet attendait l'artiste originaire de Fort-Coulonge. Pour une première fois dans l’histoire de l’émission, la finale était 100% féminine et l’aventure de Cahill s’est terminée le 18 octobre. Malgré le soutien de la population, l’artiste locale n’a finalement pas pu remporter la dernière étape de la compétition. L’émission lui a donné la chance de travailler aux côtés de talentueux artistes, de Ginette Reno à Tyler Shaw, sans bien sûr oublier qu’elle a pu tout au long de l’aventure compter sur les conseils de son coach, Marc Dupré. Cette expérience lui aura aussi permis de se retrouver sur l’album La Voix chante. Pour Mme Cahill, La Voix était l’occasion de prouver à ses filles qu’il n’est jamais trop tard pour accomplir ses rêves.

  • Do Good Intentions Beget Good Policy? Two Steps Forward and One Step Back in the Construction of Domestic Violence in Ontario
    Do Good Intentions Beget Good Policy? Two Steps Forward and One Step Back in the Construction of Domestic Violence in Ontario by April Lucille Girard-Brown A thesis submitted to the Department of Sociology In conformity with the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Queen‟s University Kingston, Ontario, Canada January, 2012 Copyright ©April Lucille Girard-Brown, 2012 Abstract The construction of domestic violence shifted and changed as this issue was forced from the private shadows to the public stage. This dissertation explores how government policy initiatives - Bill 117: An Act to Better Protect Victims of Domestic Violence and the Domestic Violence Action Plan (DVAP) - shaped our understanding of domestic violence as a social problem in the first decade of the twenty-first century in Ontario. Specifically, it asks whose voices were heard, whose were silenced, how domestic violence was conceptualized by various stakeholders. In order to do this I analyzed the texts of Bill 117, its debates, the DVAP, as well as fourteen in-depth interviews with anti- violence advocates in Ontario to shed light on their construction of the domestic violence problem. Then I examined who (both state and non-state actors) regarded the work as „successful‟, flawed or wholly ineffective. In particular, I focused on the claims and counter-claims advanced by MPPs, other government officials, feminist or other women‟s group advocates and men‟s or fathers‟ rights group supporters and organizations. The key themes derived from the textual analysis of documents and the interviews encapsulate the key issues which formed the dominant construction of domestic violence in Ontario between 2000 and 2009: the never-ending struggles over funding, debates surrounding issues of rights and responsibilities, solutions proposed to address domestic violence, and finally the continued appearance of deserving and undeserving victims in public policy.

    -1- CANADIAN BROADCAST STANDARDS COUNCIL QUEBEC REGIONAL COUNCIL CIQC-AM re Galganov in the Morning (CBSC Decision 97/98-0473) Decided August 14, 1998 Y. Chouinard (Vice-Chair), R. Cohen (ad hoc), M. Gervais, S. Gouin and P. Tancred THE FACTS At the time of this complaint, Howard Galganov, well-known political campaigner for the rights of English-language Quebeckers, hosted the morning show on CIQC-AM (Montreal) which ran from about 7:00 a.m., following the morning news, to 10 a.m. The first two hours of Galganov in the Morning consisted of chit chat between Mr. Galganov and his co-host, Jim Connell, various interviews and discussion of current affairs topics. This time slot also made room for a daily editorial by Howard Galganov. The last hour of the show was in an open-line format, dedicated to taking calls from listeners. A sampling of the broadcasts of November 17, 20 and 21, 1997 is provided below (more complete transcripts of these broadcasts are included in Appendix A). Mr. Galganov’s editorial on November 17, 1997 dealt with a “graffiti incident” which had occurred in Montreal over the week-end: To the victims of this graffiti and intimidation, I offer my sympathy for what you and your families are going through. But I also commend you and yours for the bravery it took and still takes to come forward and as much as I laud all of you for being brave and loyal Canadians, I equally hold all of our politicians, including the racist-separatist Parti Québécois government with the deepest of contempt for doing nothing to discourage this outrageous form of intimidation and to the Federal Government of Canada for its continuing acquiescence and gutlessness.
