July 22, 196543 Toronto
Volume 24, Number 14 July 22, 196543 Toronto British American Oil Company's Musical Showcase, a half-hour weekly television quiz - and -music program, goes national August 1. Twenty-two Western -Canadian stations are being added to the 31 -strong eastern roster. Other switches, to more elaborate production and all -live prize displays instead of graph- ics, will follow. So will a change to a paid quiz panel. (B-A wants more money fed into customer prizes - less to the on -air panel participants). The oil company's April dealer letter is reported to credit Showcase with pulling close to a million mail entries and in- creasing the rate of B -A credit card applica- tions by 300 per cent since first airing March 28. In the photo (1. to r.) are: Phil Lauson, Foster Advertising (Montreal); Jack Neuss, retail programs director for B -A (and creator of Showcase); George LaFlêche, emcee and singing star; Denny Vaughn, musical director; Peter Lussier, director -producer, and Bob McNicol, Foster Advertising (Toronto). This is baseball? That's what CFCB Radio in Cornerbrook, Newfoundland, and the local CBC Radio employees seem to think. At least they recently played a three -inning grudge match in their outlandish outfits and called it softball - even agreed on a 2-2 tie score once the shenanigans were over. It was all in a good cause - for the local Royal Canadian Legion. Price of admission to the game was set at one forget-me-not (the flower of remem- brance) per customer. Evidently the Legion's `lower sales were helped considerably. -

Edward F. Bush the CANADIAN FAST LINE on THE
480 Edward F. Bush THE CANADIAN FAST LINE ON THE NORTH ATLANTIC,l.851.-1915 Few of us today over the age of forty can have forgo tten the days of keen competition on the North Atlantic among rival steamship lines for the coveted Blue Riband. With the advent of large -scale trans-oceanic air service over rhe course of the past quarter- century, competition among the steamship lines had swindled to negligible significance, until today the passenger line is relegated for the most part to the luxury winter cruise in southern seas. Canada's bid to establish a fast subsidized mail and passenger service on the Liverpool-Quebec route (Halifax or Saint J ohn in winter) in competition with that serving New York, a trade which attracted the fastest ships and most competitive steamship lines, is less well known. First mooted in the House of Assembly, Canada West, in 1851, the long deferred and despaired of Canadian Fast Line service did not materialize until 1907, when the Laurier government realized the goals of its Conservative predecessors; the veteran Allan Line undertook to provide a weekly 17-18 knot service , commencing 1 August 1907. The Allan Line in turn shared its contract with the recently formed Canadian Pacific Railway Atlantic line; the two companies between them operated a bi-weekly service, Liverpool to Quebec, more or less competitive with service on the New York route. In the process, however, the Allan Line, oldest in the Canadian trade, was absorbed by its younger, but better heeled, partner and rival. An edi torial in the Montreal Gazette dated 5 June 1851 supported the motion of recent date introduced by William Hamilto n Merritt in the House of Assembly, Canada West, that a service fas t enough to be competitive with the lines serving New York be establish on the considerably sho rter 1 Quebec-Liverpool route, to be subsidized by the Canadian government. -
John Weinzweig and the Canadian Mediascape, 1941-1948
John Weinzweig and the Canadian Mediascape, 1941-1948 by Erin Elizabeth Scheffer A thesis submitted in conformity with the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Graduate Department of Music University of Toronto © Copyright by Erin Elizabeth Scheffer 2019 John Weinzweig and the Canadian Mediascape Erin Elizabeth Scheffer Doctor of Philosophy Graduate Department of Music University of Toronto 2019 Abstract This dissertation explores John Weinzweig’s incidental music for radio and film and its context in Canadian cultural life. Between 1941 and 1948, Weinzweig composed music for nearly one hundred CBC radio docudrama episodes and for four National Film Board documentaries. Weinzweig’s time at the CBC and NFB was his first large scale success as a working composer, following his graduate studies at the Eastman School of Music. Weinzweig’s incidental music was publicly broadcast across Canada, and can be interpreted in light of how it represents Canada during an anxious and difficult yet significant time in the nation’s history through the Second World War and the immediate post-war era. These works, featuring new music broadcast by organizations in their infancy, helped to shape audience perceptions of a rapidly changing country. I begin by situating Weinzweig’s documentary music both temporally and philosophically. The opening chapter explores his biography, the musical context of the 1940s in Canada, and the creation of the CBC and NFB, and it closes by discussing significant themes in the works: indigeneity, northernness, dominion over the landscape, and nation and national affect. The subsequent three chapters divide Weinzweig’s docudramas and documentaries by topic: World War Two propaganda and postwar reconstruction, Canada’s north, and finally a discussion of Weinzweig’s only radio drama The Great Flood , which premiered on CBC’s ii cultural program Wednesday Night in 1948. -

The Canadian Steam Merchant Marine, 1853-19031 Kenneth S
"They Lost the Smell:" The Canadian Steam Merchant Marine, 1853-19031 Kenneth S. Mackenzie Sir John A. Macdonald's National Policy "extinguished" the smell of the sea in the nostrils of Canadians, contended one member of Parliament during a 1920 debate in the House of Commons.2 Regrettably he did not amplify his reasoning, but nonetheless he came surprisingly close to the mark. Unfortunately, his word carried little weight, in part because he represented the inland constituency of Red Deer, Alberta. What did he know of the smell of the sea, many sceptics must have wondered? Still, what is most remarkable is the prescience of his comment. It may be that he was so accurate because he could examine the subject dispassionately, an argument bolstered by the fact that few Canadians more involved with the subject were as insightful. Indeed, the decline of interest in maritime affairs remains a theme that sorely perplexes many Canadians. In this essay I will show in broad terms how the Canadian steam merchant marine, far from being an undernourished, ill-founded venture, was in fact a vital force, and how it first expanded and then contracted in the half century under discussion. Few people within or without the country are even aware that Canada once possessed such a fleet; it is time for this historical fact to become better known. A word about sources may be useful at the outset. This study is based largely on non-quantifiable sources, since company records have not survived in any significant quantity. In fact, the really valuable sources — such as private letters, diaries and records — simply do not exist. -
