GENEROSITY OF OUR DONORS..............18 AUDITOR’S REPORT...............................20 FROM OUR LEADERSHIP Some CANFAR records were broken during 2014 – 15, and I am so grateful to the many, many people across Canada who made this possible. Our flagship Toronto gala Bloor Street Entertains – co-chaired by Scotiabank’s Brian and Megan Porter – realised its best year in 18 with revenue just shy of $1 million. We also broke a record by reaching more than 2.5 million Canadian high school students through Over the past year, CANFAR has experienced a renewed sense of a call to our youth awareness program, Kisses 4 CANFAR. We engaged in more research action - young people are taking up this cause, and I am delighted. As a partnerships than ever before – from the St. Paul’s Hospital/CANFAR Chair in concerned parent, the need for us to focus our efforts on ridding the planet HIV/AIDS Research in Vancouver, to co-funding Montreal-based cure research of HIV and AIDS is more compelling than ever; so is the need to reach young with the Canadian Institutes for Health Research (CIHR), and HIV prevention Canadians with our message. Over the past year, our high school awareness research with CIHR’s Institute for Gender and Health. We were pleased to program, Kisses 4 CANFAR, reached more than 2.5 million young Canadians Christopher continue our partnerships with the Canadian HIV Treatment Network by funding in every province and territory in the land.

During what the present thesis calls the “crisis of Britishness” from 1964 to 1968, the British character of Canada was redefined and Britishness portrayed as something foreign or “other.” This post-British conception of Canada has been buttressed by historians depicting the British connection as a colonial hangover, an externally-derived, narrowly ethnic, nostalgic, or retardant force. However, Britishness, as a unique amalgam of hybrid identities in the Canadian context, in fact took on new and multiple meanings.

  • How Stephen Harper Changed Canada's Relations with the United
    Odd Man Out: How Stephen Harper Changed Canada’s Relations with the United Nations by Michael Blanchfield A thesis submitted to the Faculty of Graduate and Postdoctoral Affairs in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Journalism in Journalism and Communication Carleton University Ottawa, Ontario © Michael Blanchfield 2015 Abstract Since coming to power in 2006, Prime Minister Stephen Harper has changed how Canada views the world, and how the world views Canada. This is evident through Canada’s strained relations with the United Nations. He has shown disdain for the UN treaty process, including the Arms Trade Treaty, the Convention to Combat Desertification, and the Convention on Cluster Munitions. He used the UN umbrella to court support for his Maternal, Newborn Child Health initiatives, masking an overall cut in development spending. The UN has served as his government’s main battleground to bring Canada closer to Israel than before. A combination of political ideology and domestic political necessity lies behind this new foreign policy direction. That has meant smashing the brand of past Liberal governments and crafting policies that can appeal to Harper’s core base, while attempting to attract other more mainstream supporters. ii Acknowledgements I returned to Carleton University to study journalism 26 years after getting my undergraduate degree so that I would be forced to write something resembling this. So to my professors and fellow students, who inspired me in different ways, my sincere thanks. A special thanks to Klaus Pohle, for a great title, so casually suggested over a modest lunch. I would not have been able to do this without any of you.
