    CHAMPIONS & GRAND AGGREGATE WINNERS Annual Bonspiel of the Manitoba Branch of the Royal CalCaleeeedoniandonian Curling Club 1889 ––– 1907 MCA ANNUAL BONSPIEL 1908 ––– 2013 MANITOBA OPEN BONSPIEL 2014 ––– present CurlManitoba – Bonspiel Champions & Aggregate Winners Since 1889 ( December 1, 2020 ) Page 1 Manitoba’s 150 th anniversary celebration provides motivation for review of history in many areas, including Manitoba proud curling heritage. This document accumulates together, for the first time, an acknowledgement of all of the Manitoba Curling Association’s annual bonspiel “champions”. The project was initiated by Les Ferris of Holland, inspired by local history which tells the story of Holland’s Hector McLean team returning home to a brass-band reception after winning the MCA’s annual bonspiel in 1900. Ferris’ first research was possible thanks to a set of early MCA annual publications, originally collected by Stan Oleson and Ab Gowanlock. The research effort of MCA ‘historians’ Rick Mutton and Heather Helston is acknowledged and appreciated as an additional foundation of this document. The support of Heidi Rees, Reference Services, Manitoba Legislative Library is also much appreciated. Reference has been made to archive copies of the annual bonspiel programmes (which evolved into the association’s annual publication). Archive copies of the Winnipeg Free Press, Manitoba Morning Free Press, and Winnipeg Tribune have provided key insights into the bonspiels of the late 1800’s and early 1900’s. In addition, reference has also been made to the Morris Mott/John Allardyce book Curling Capital: Winnipeg and the Roarin’ Game, 1876 to 1988 and to the archives of thecurler.com. The documented was drafted by Resby Coutts on behalf of CurlManitoba and the Manitoba Curling Hall of Fame & Museum.

  • Selecting Selinger: the 2009 Leadership Race and the Future of NDP Conventions in Manitoba∗
    Selecting Selinger: The 2009 Leadership Race and the Future of NDP Conventions in Manitoba∗ Jared J. Wesley, University of Manitoba [email protected] Paper for Presentation at The Annual Meeting of the Canadian Political Science Association Concordia University, Montreal June 2010 Abstract In a delegated convention held in October, 2009, the Manitoba New Democratic Party (NDP) selected former Finance Minister Greg Selinger to replace Canada's longest-serving and most popular premier, Gary Doer. Official appeals filed by the victor’s chief rival, Steve Ashton, and persistent criticism of the process in the media raised significant concerns over the method by which the new premier was selected. These complaints proved a fleeting fixation of the media, and have not harmed the NDP’s popularity or affected the smooth transition of the premiership from Doer to Selinger. Yet, questions persist as to whether the 2009 leadership race marked the last delegated convention in the history of the Manitoba New Democratic Party. This paper examines the 2009 leadership race in the context of contests past, analyzing the list of criticisms directed at the process. Grounding its findings in the comments of delegates to the 2009 Convention, it concludes with a series of probable choices for the party, as it begins the process of considering reforms to its leadership selection process. Leading contenders for adoption include a pure one-member, one-vote system and a modified version similar to that of the federal NDP. ∗ Funding for the 2009 Manitoba NDP Convention Study was provided by the Faculty of Arts, Duff Roblin Professorship, and Department of Political Studies at the University of Manitoba, and the Canada Research Chair in Indigenous Politics and Governance.

  • Remembering and Forgetting Winnipeg: Making History on the Strike of 1919 Trevor Stace
    50 Remembering and Forgetting Winnipeg: Making History on the Strike of 1919 Trevor Stace This article examines the approaches that historians, beginning in the mid 20th century and into the early 21st century, used to write about the Winnipeg General Strike of 1919. It focuses on five major works: The Winnipeg General Strike by D.C. Masters; Confrontation at Winnipeg by David J. Bercuson; The Workers' Revolt in Canada, 1917-1925 edited by Craig Heron; and When the State Trembled: How A.J. Andrews and the Citizens' Committee Broke the Winnipeg General Strike by Tom Mitchell and Reinhold Kramer. It identifies where the monographs depart from one another in interpretation; as well as where they remain the same. Given the layers of complexity, the interpretation of the event becomes especially salient in the 21st century as its 100th anniversary steadfastly approaches and the question of how should it be publicly presented in 2019 requires an answer soon (which the paper also addresses) With the 100th anniversary of the Winnipeg General Strike of 1919 steadfastly approaching the question of how the representation of the significant Canadian historical event will proceed in the public, the media, and the government [municipally, provincially, and federally] has yet to be answered. The public memory of the Bloody Saturday has endured in the hearts and the minds of Winnipeg-Canadians. In 1969, for instance, on the 50th anniversary of the strike, the United Steelworkers of America presented to the City of Winnipeg a plaque that read: “in honor of the people of Winnipeg whose sacrifices for Union Recognition Helped Millions of Canadians win the benefits of collective bargaining.”1 Twenty-five years later in 1994, on the strike’s 75th anniversary, there were attempts to include its remembrance into official provincial celebrations of Manitoba Day [May 12]—but was ultimately rejected.

  • 16 CALDWELL Ukraine Free
    When Ukraine Became Free: Ukrainian Independence through the Perspective of Ukrainian Canadian Lobbying Associations Hayley Caldwell, University of Winnipeg Introduction During the Cold War, in its dealings with the Soviet Union, Canada had to be especially cautious. In one sense, this was of course because of the nation’s increasing complex economic relationship with the United States in the post- World War II period; from another, this was due to the fact that a large number of its citizens had their geo-ethnic origins within the boundaries of the Eastern Bloc.1 Of all the Canadians from this region, however, the Ukrainians were the most representative.2 Therefore, when Germany reunified and it was suspected that the Soviet Union was to disintegrate, Canada had a continual obligation to be mindful of this population living within its borders. The year 1991 was a tremendously joyous time for the majority of Ukrainian-Canadians. Hundreds of conferences were held by various lobbying group in honour of the centennial of the arrival of their ancestors to the country – a wave of immigration that began, at least in an official sense, in 1891. There was, however, another occasion that year that demanded perhaps even greater celebration. On December 3rd, 1991, Canada became the second nation in the world to acknowledge a liberated Kiev.3 Prime Minister Brian Mulroney was the first leader of a Western G7 nation to recognize the sovereignty of Ukraine.4 This was a very significant diplomatic maneuver, displaying Canada’s deep connection to this part of the world. The question that directs this research is: What role did Ukrainian Canadian lobbying groups have in influencing Canada’s domestic and foreign policies at the end of the Cold War? There is clear evidence to indicate that 1 Jaroslav Petryshyn, “‘The Ethnic Question’ Personified: Ukrainian Canadians and Canadian- Soviet Relations, 1917-1991,” in Reimagining Ukrainian Canadians, ed.

  • The Effect of the Market on the Framing of Elections at the Subnational Level in Canada
    Canadian Political Science Review Vol. 9, No. 1, 2015, 28-40 The Importance of Context: The Effect of the Market on the Framing of Elections at the Subnational Level in Canada Shannon Sampert Department of Political Science, University of Winnipeg (on leave) Perspectives and Politics, Editor, Winnipeg Free Press– Email Address: [email protected] Adelina Petit-Vouriot Department of Political Science, University of Toronto – Email address: [email protected] Abstract: In Canadian media studies, very little research has been done on how elections at the subnational level are covered by newspapers. This paper analyzes the way major newspapers in six Canadian capitals covered provincial elections between 2011 and 2012. The findings were interesting in that they underscored the importance of context in news coverage. Rather than a formulaic game frame focus, with an adherence to who’s winning and who’s losing, our study determined that each newspaper had a distinct voice and focus in their news coverage. This adds a new and interesting dimension to the study of election coverage in Canada. Keywords: Election studies, media analysis, content analysis, framing, game frame, agenda setting. Résumé: Dans les études de media canadiennes, très peu de recherches ont été effectués sur les élections au niveau régional qui sont couvertes par les journaux. Ce document analyse comment les journaux régionaux de six capitales canadiennes on couverts les élections provinciales entre les années 2011 et 2012. Les résultats étaient intéressants, ils insistaient sur l’importance du contexte pour la diffusion des actualités. Plutôt qu’un jeu stéréotypé, avec un gagnant et perdant, notre étude a déterminé que chaque journal avait une présentations et diffusion particulière.

Department of M0S \ C The University of British Columbia Vancouver, Canada Date flffoL 3.6 Rqfe DE-6 (2/88) ABSTRACT In this thesis, First Nations popular music is examined as a polysemic sign (or symbolic form) whose meaning is mediated both socially and politically. Native popular music is a locus for the action of different social forces which interact in negotiating the nature and the meaning of the music. Music is socially meaningful in that it provides a means by which people construct and recognize social and cultural identities. As such, First Nations popular music functions as an emblem of symbolic differentiation between Canadian natives and non-natives. Native pop music plays host to a number of political meanings embedded in this syncretic musical form.

  • A History of Food and Nutrition in Indigenous Communities In
    A History of Food and Nutrition in Indigenous Communities in Canada, 1962-1985 By Krista Walters A Thesis submitted to the Faculty of Graduate Studies of The University of Manitoba in partial fulfilment of the requirements of the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY Department of History University of Manitoba Winnipeg, Manitoba Copyright @ 2020 by Krista Walters ABSTRACT This thesis explores the history of food and nutrition in Indigenous communities in mid- to late- twentieth century Canada. It does so through tracing changes in state policies and procedures, as well as Indigenous approaches to foodways, health, and healing from the 1960s into the 1980s. It looks at how the shifting discourses of nutrition and food science impacted educational materials and programs for Indigenous peoples, often aimed at mothers and children in Indigenous communities, and highlights a moment of possibility in the early 1980s when Indigenous peoples were increasingly being consulted on and leading state programs tailored to their communities and their cultures. It aims to privilege the experiences of Indigenous peoples through the choice of sources and attention to Indigenous methodologies. It therefore includes discussion of Indigenous activism and its impact on health and healing, food production and preparation, land use and agriculture, and data collection used for food and nutrition surveys. Central to this dissertation is the concern that Indigenous peoples have been studied, pathologized, and racialized as part of a long history of settler-colonialism in Canada. Many of the state nutrition projects that informed policies and programs during the period were organized and carried out by non-Indigenous experts and their cadres, with a very top-down approach.

  • Some Personal Reflections on Manitoba Political Journalism
    DRAFT Some Personal Reflections on Manitoba Political Journalism By Frances Russell Prepared for the Roblin Professorship Conference, St. John’s College, University of Manitoba, Nov. 20‐22, 2008 Manitoba political journalism As a veteran of 46 years in journalism, I’ve witnessed one of the most profound and dramatic revolutions in the news business since Gutenberg invented the printing press. I began my career at the Winnipeg Tribune in May, 1962 after graduating with a BA in history and political science. Back then, Winnipeg was a fiercely competitive newspaper market, boasting two broadsheet dailies representing the nation’s two major newspaper chains: Southam, owned by the family of the same name and FP Publications, owned by the Siftons. Both the Trib and its bigger rival, the Winnipeg Free Press, put out a morning and up to three afternoon editions daily, re-plating the front page as necessary to carry breaking news. This was the era before computers, before tape recorders, before the internet, before the blackberry. Reporters scribbled their notes on copy paper using thick yellow newsprinter pencils. They pounded out their stories on blank sheets of newsprint wadded, along with carbon paper, into heavy black Underwood typewriters. Sometimes as many as four or five copies were required, the first for the all-important Canadian Press wire and the remainder for various editors. If they were on deadline, reporters would rip each page out as soon as they had completed a paragraph, shout “Copy” and hand it to a “copy boy” who would rush one page to the city editor, another to his assistant and literally skewer a third on CP’s long, very sharp metal spike resting on the city editor’s desk.
