  • Évolution Culturelle Et Enjeux Identitaires Des Minorités Canadiennes-Françaises Dans Les Journaux Et La Littérature Pour La Jeunesse De 1912 À 1944
    De l’impuissance à l’autonomie : évolution culturelle et enjeux identitaires des minorités canadiennes-françaises dans les journaux et la littérature pour la jeunesse de 1912 à 1944 par Laurent POLIQUIN Thèse présentée à la Faculté des Études supérieures de l’Université du Manitoba comme exigence partielle en vue de l’obtention du grade de PHILOSOPHIÆ DOCTOR Department of French, Spanish and Italian University of Manitoba Winnipeg, Canada Copyright © Laurent Poliquin, 2012 RÉSUMÉ Cette étude vise à déterminer dans quelle mesure des causes antérieures à la Révolution tranquille expliquent la nouvelle organisation sociale du Canada français, contrairement à l’idée selon laquelle les années soixante inaugurent une rupture identitaire amenant les Canadiens français à l’extérieur du Québec à ne plus se considérer comme issus d’une nation canadienne-française commune. Durant le première moitié du XXe siècle, plusieurs événements perturbateurs complexifient l’histoire des relations entre ces groupes minoritaires et ceux qu’elle perçoit comme les Autres : la majorité anglo-canadienne et les Canadiens français du Québec en situation majoritaire. Les crises scolaires en Ontario (1912), au Manitoba (1916) et en Saskatchewan (1931), ainsi que les crises de la conscription (1917 et 1944), ont chacune une incidence non seulement sur les rapports réels entre les minorités et les groupes majoritaires concernés, mais aussi sur les représentations qu’ils en ont dans la presse canadienne. Le dépouillement de quelques journaux des minorités canadiennes-françaises (Le Droit, Le Patriote de l’Ouest, La Liberté, La Survivance) publiés durant les crises provinciales ou nationales envisagées nous permettra de vérifier l’hypothèse selon laquelle elles contribuent, sous les formes qu’elles prennent dans la presse en tant que « moments discursifs » (Moirand), à préparer la rupture du Canada français de 1912 à 1944.

    Furrows of the Field: Methodology in Writing the Religious History of the Canadian Prairies A thesis submitted to The Faculty of Graduate Studies and Research in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts in Religious Studies University of Regina By Connor John Thompson Regina, SK April, 2019 Copyright 2019: Connor John Thompson UNIVERSITY OF REGINA FACULTY OF GRADUATE STUDIES AND RESEARCH SUPERVISORY AND EXAMINING COMMITTEE Connor John Thompson, candidate for the degree of Master of Arts in Religious Studies, has presented a thesis titled, Furrows of the Field: Methodology in Writing The Religious History of the Canadian Prairies, in an oral examination held on April 23, 2019. The following committee members have found the thesis acceptable in form and content, and that the candidate demonstrated satisfactory knowledge of the subject material. External Examiner: Dr. Murray Knuttila, Brock Univesity Co-Supervisor: Dr. William Arnal, Department of Religious Studies Co-Supervisor: Dr. Bryan Hillis, Department of Religious Studies Committee Member: Dr. Andre Magnan, Department of Sociology & Social Studies Chair of Defense: Dr. Susan Johnston, Department of English Abstract The primary concern of this thesis is explanation of the drastic decline in church attendance that has characterized Prairie religious history, and Canadian history more broadly, over the course of the twentieth and early twenty first centuries. In the case of the Canadian Prairies as a region, this transformation has also been tied up with the change from a heavily social gospel influenced society based on the highly valued ethic of co-operation to a society that is increasingly non-church going and which more highly values the ethic of individualism.

Despite suffering from painful mental illness, Scott established policies, governmental infrastructure, and institutions that shaped the future of Saskatchewan. Sadly, his remarkable contributions, like his untended tombstone, have been largely forgotten. Walter Scott said, “This is a great country. It needs big men with large ideas.” The ideas and achievements of Saskatchewan’s citizens and leaders are impressive, indeed. Tommy Douglas, one of our best-known Premiers, improved labour standards, enhanced the cooperative sector, modernized the province through the Crown Corporations, and laid the groundwork for Canada’s first Medicare system.
