Starting in the mining game at Crean Hill back in 1914, his con- tinuous Inco service dates from 1923. And speaking of Crean Hill. Jack fondly recalls that it was the nicest community he ever lived in, which is something from a man born and raised in Somerset coun- ty, England. Despite the beauty of Somerset Jack left home at 18 and wander- lusted his way to Canada, finally arriving in Toronto. He worked there several years before coming north to Crean Hill in 1914. He went back home in 1919 but couldn't settle down to the peace- ful country life, so returned to Crean Hill in 1923. He was soon made a shift boss, and later moved 1 to Creighton. He went to Frood as mine captain in 1934, then back to Creighton as foreman in 1937. Ill health brought him up from underground in 1943, and he was surface foreman until his retire- ment. Jack thinks a miner's life is a much easier and more pleasant one today, but lacks the color of yesteryear. He wouldn't trade his memories for a whole regiment of jacklegs.

The facts were that the Plaintiff’s home was destroyed in a fire. The Defendant, the Plaintiff’s insurer, denied the claim made under the insurance policy on the grounds that the fire had been deliberately set even though the local fire chief, the Defendant’s own fire investigator and the Defendant’s initial expert all agreed that there was no evidence of arson. At trial, the jury awarded the Plaintiff $1 million in punitive damages against the Defendant for bad faith denial of coverage.

  • (Title of the Thesis)*
    “ODDBALLS AND ECCENTRICS” (“LES HIRSUTES ET LES EXCENTRIQUES”): VISUAL ARTS AND ARTISTS IN THE POPULAR PRESS IN POST-WAR CANADA by Debra Anne Antoncic A thesis submitted to the Department of Art In conformity with the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Queen‟s University Kingston, Ontario, Canada (May 2011) Copyright © Debra Anne Antoncic, 2011 Abstract This dissertation examines the representation of visual arts and artists in two popular Canadian magazines. It is based on case studies of the Montréal-based Le petit journal, a French-language magazine, and the Toronto-based English-language publication Star Weekly, from 1945 to 1968. Both were weekly magazines with large readerships and included content for the entire family. Neither was devoted to visual arts but both carried photographs and articles that engaged with broad issues in the field of visual arts. As such, they represent a cross-section of ideas and perspectives that is very different from those of daily newspapers or of publications explicitly devoted to the arts. In addition, both implicitly claimed a national perspective by including articles and information about different regions of Canada. In this way, although in reality the two publications constitute a central Canadian perspective, inflected in each case by the particularities of their provincial locations, they claimed a national vision. In contrast to existing research concerning art journals and art critics in Canada, my investigation involves the ownership and editorial direction of these two popular magazines. By analyzing the content of the magazines across more than two decades, I am able to identify shifts in outlook as they occurred and consider them in the context of the period.
