    W RECK: graduate journal of art history, visual art, and theory Volume 2, number 1 (2008) Freedom, Sex & Power:1 Film/Video Regulation in Ontario By Taryn Sirove, Ph.D. Candidate, Queen’s University P h o t o c o u r t e s y o f J o h n P o r t e r . Fig. 1. The Ontario Film and Video Appreciation Society (OFVAS) presenting its brief at public hearings on a new film classification law held at Queen’s Park, Toronto, Ontario, December 4-5, 1984. L-R: David Poole (CFMDC), Anna Gronau (The Funnel), Cyndra MacDowell (CARO). Photo by John Porter. “Ontario is getting out of the film censorship business,” announced the headline of the December 10, 2004 Toronto Star.2 This, after Glad Day Bookshop, a small retailer specializing in queer literature and videotapes, won a decisive legal battle against the Ontario Film Review Board (OFRB).3 Glad Day Bookshop appealed its previous conviction for illegally distributing the sexually-explicit video, Descent, by “renowned” American filmmaker, Steven Scarborough.4 The bookshop called upon the federal Charter of Rights and Freedoms to overturn a provincial regulation—the Theatres Act—which required that all videos and films be either approved by the OFRB, be partially censored, or altogether banned. Despite Glad Day Bookshop’s successful legal challenge to the Act and the OFRB, the Star headline was totally erroneous; as of today, the OFRB has retained its powers for the prior restraint and banning of film and video in Ontario. In this essay, I map a number of interventions and contests around the regulation of video and film from the 1980s until the present.

  • Vancouver by Tina Gianoulis
    Vancouver by Tina Gianoulis Encyclopedia Copyright © 2015, glbtq, Inc. Entry Copyright © 2006 glbtq, Inc. Reprinted from http://www.glbtq.com Cosmopolitan Vancouver, nestled on Canada's west coast in a picturesque triangle between English Bay, Burrard Inlet, and the Fraser River, has developed in less than 200 years from a frontier outpost in an untamed land to one of the fastest-growing cities in North America. With a constant influx of immigrants and a vigorous and adaptable economy, Vancouver is a progressive city with a large and active queer community. That community began organizing in the 1960s, with the founding of Canada's first homophile organization, and has continued into the 2000s, as activists work to protect queer rights and develop queer culture. With its sheltered location, fertile farmland, and rich inland waterways, the southwestern corner of British Columbia's mainland attracted settlers from a variety of native cultures for over three thousand years. More than twenty tribes, including the Tsawwassen and Musqueam, comprised the Stó:lo Nation, the "People of the Water," who farmed and fished the Fraser River Valley before the arrival of European explorers in the late eighteenth century. From the first European trading post, established by the Hudson Bay Company in 1827, the small community soon grew into a boomtown with a thriving economy based on its lumber and mining industries, fisheries, and agriculture. By the late 1800s, the settlement had become a hub for a newly developing railroad network, and in 1886, the City of Vancouver was incorporated. The city grew rapidly, tripling its population within a few decades and spawning a construction boom in the early 1900s.

  • Knowledge Reifying Force-Intention-Harm K(F+I+H): the Nature and Structure of Crime
    Fall 08 Journal of Theoretical and Philosophical Criminology Nature and Structure of Crime 2011, Vol. 3 9(1):110-132 Boyanowsky & Yasayko Knowledge Reifying Force-Intention-Harm K(F+I+H): The Nature and Structure of Crime A Multidimensional Theoretical Model Ehor Boyanowsky & Jonathan Yasayko Simon Fraser University Abstract Violence is regarded as a negative phenomenon and confused with aggression in social science to the detriment of analysis of their causes. We argue that violence is a natural phenomenon occupying a meaningfully different ecological space from aggression which involves elements of intention and harm and propose an eclectic multidimensional model encompassing both social construction and physical observation of violence for comparison and analysis of the structure of crime. A 70 year old pensioner awakens to find an intruder, a big, young, shaggy haired man, carrying an object, wandering through his house. In a panic he reaches into a drawer and grabbing his revolver, fires repeatedly, killing the unknown assailant. Still shaking, he calls the police. The old man is charged with murder. Why? Where does he live? In the play, Mother Courage and Her Children (Brecht, 1994) a sturdy matriarch halts her caravan at an execution site in the French countryside, realizing with horror that the man bound at the stake is her son. He explains, bemusedly, that he doesn‟t understand what is going on. Last week he had been raiding villages, raping and killing and pillaging and been commended by his commanding officers. This week he did the same thing and has been condemned to death. What is going on? In the 1980s the Special Committee on Pornography and Prostitution (the Fraser Commission) held hearings across Canada regarding the public‟s attitude toward pornography.

  • My Experience with Education in Canada and Federal Prisons Rod Carter
    My Experience with Education in Canada and Federal Prisons Rod Carter quit high school the first time in May 1964 just before the end of my I second go at Grade 10. I left again in November 1964 on the heels of a two week suspension for fighting at a school dance. During my years in public school, the teachers’ generally commented that I “could do better given my ability”. In high school, the remarks became more psychological as I became more rebellious. My file was littered with statements such as “there has been a change in his attitude”, “he avoids expression of his inner feelings” and “has a hostile attitude toward the adult world”. They were not seeing it wrong! I entered prison in October 1967 hauling a three and a half year sentence. My two uncles and two cousins, who were all Ontario Provincial Police (OPP) officers, had me destined for a life of crime. I spent reception at the Big House – Kingston Penitentiary – and transferred to Collins Bay Penitentiary a few months later to complete my sentence. Early in my sentence, I recognized a thirst for education, both formal and informal. Kierkegaard (2004, p. 124) said, “Freedom is man’s capacity to take a hand in his own development. It is our capacity to mould ourselves, the basic step in achieving inward freedom is ‘choosing one’s self’”. I served cell time reading, working on correspondence courses, listening to one of three radio channels and strumming guitar. During the day, I joined seven other students in the one-classroom school where I worked on my correspondence courses, which included English literature, composition and mathematics.

It has been accepted for inclusion in Dalhousie Law Journal by an authorized editor of Schulich Law Scholars. For more information, please contact [email protected]. Michael Fenrick* Habermas, Legal Legitimacy, and Creative Cost Awards in Recent Canadian Jurisprudence- Access to justice continues to be a live issue in Canadian courtrooms. While state-sponsored initiatives that promote access continue to flounder in Canada or in some cases, are cancelled altogether, the pressure is mounting to find creative solutions that facilitate greater participation in formal dispute resolution processes. The price of failing in this regard is very high. To truly flourish, both social cohesion and individual liberties require a more participatory and inclusive legal system than the one that currently precludes all but the wealthiest from accessing our courts. Drawing on the legal philosophy of Jargen Habermas, the author examines access problems from the perspective of the civil litigant who is facing the unmanageable financial burden of having her legal rights recognized and adjudicated in a Canadian courtroom. Specifically, this paper considers the role which creative costs orders can play in advancing the goal of fuller legal participation.

  • Brian Lam's Speech for Little Sisters 2014 Gray Campbell Award
    Gray Campbell Award presenter’s speech by Brian Lam for recipients Jim Deva & Janine Fuller, Little Sister’s Book & Art Emporium, 2014 In 1984, a young man of twenty-two moved to the big city of Vancouver for a summer job. Being shy and somewhat aloof, he didn’t make new friends easily, and while he loved the company of a good novel, he wasn’t able to find many books that told the kinds of stories in which he saw himself, making him feel less alone. But then he stumbled upon a bookstore located on the second floor of a converted house on Thurlow Street in the West End. Ascending the staircase, he saw announcements of meetings for various gay and lesbian groups, and typewritten notices from those looking for “like-minded” roommates, and handwritten posters asking for witnesses to the latest gay bashing down the street. And then once upstairs, in the narrow confines of crowded bookshelves, and in the covers of so many books of gay fiction, poetry, self-help, and history, he saw a reflection of himself looking back at him, and he finally felt like he had found a second home of sorts. That young man was me, and that bookstore was Little Sister’s. A year earlier in 1983, Jim Deva and Bruce Smyth, along with Barb Thomas, opened Little Sister’s Book and Art Emporium in that converted house on Thurlow Street. After moving to Vancouver from the prairies, Jim and Bruce worked in retail, and when they decided to go into business for themselves, they considered opening a clothing store or a shoe store, but finally settled on the idea of selling gay and lesbian art and books.
