Created by the Parliament of Canada as a Centennial project during the 1960s, the NAC has become Canada’s foremost showcase for the performing arts. Today the NAC works with thousands of artists from across Canada and around the world and collaborates with dozens of arts organizations across the country. The NAC is strongly committed to being a leader and innovator in each of the performing arts fields in which it works: classical music, English theatre, French theatre, dance, and variety and community programming. It is also at the forefront of youth and education activities, supporting programs for young and emerging artists, presenting programs for young audiences and producing resources and study materials for teachers and students. The NAC is the only multidisciplinary, bilingual performing arts centre in North America and one of the largest in the world. Accountability and Funding The NAC reports to Parliament through the Minister of Canadian Heritage and Official Languages. Of the NAC’s total revenue, approximately half is derived from an annual parliamentary appropriation, while the other half comes from earned revenue— box office sales, the NAC Foundation, NAC catering, le café (restaurant), commercial parking and facility rentals.

  • 2010-2011 Annual Report Blue Metropolis Foundation 2 MESSAGE from the CHAIR of the BOARD of DIRECTORS
    bluemetropolis.org November 2011 Annual Report 2010-2011 Blue Metropolis Foundation 2 MESSAGE FROM THE CHAIR OF THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS Blue Metropolis is much more than a great literary festival. It is a crucial cultural institution in an ever changing cultural and demographic landscape. And so it is with great pleasure and honour that I chair the Board of Directors of this astonishing organization. Since no individual organization or actor has the resources to singlehandedly produce meaningful change in society, Blue Metropolis Foundation has, since its beginning, forged strong partnerships with a variety of stakeholders in Montreal, Quebec, Canada and internationally. It has maintained these partnerships in 2010-2011, which has been a transitional year for the Foundation. The Board of Directors is proud of, and has supported, several noteworthy achievements: • a successful new-look festival, with a 50 percent increase in ticket sales and over 22,000 visitors in attendance • the development of new and innovative partnerships for our educational programmes and digital ventures • a significant reduction of our fixed costs, including a restructuring of the staff for even better productivity and to begin repaying the accumulated deficit • a bold fundraising campaign resulting in close to $500,000 from private donors Thank you to William St-Hilaire and her team for a successful transition and a memorable Festival. And special thanks to Linda Leith, the remarkable founder of Blue Metropolis, who resigned at the end of 2010. Cameron Charlebois Chair of the Board of Directors Vice President, Real Estate, Quebec Canada Lands Company 3 MESSAGE FROM THE PRESIDENT, GENERAL MANAGER AND ARTISTIC DIRECTOR When I arrived in January, I quickly realized the extent to which the Foundation’s activities are rich and diverse, and that the audiences which benefit from them are extremely varied.

Dedication This thesis is dedicated to my father Murray Kennedy who always stood behind me and knew I would succeed. Without his constant encouragement and support I would not have made it through this process. Abstract This thesis compares two translations done of the play written by dramaturge Michel Tremblay entitled, Albertine en cinq temps. Using A. Berman’s critique of translation and elements of linguistic analysis, the key characterizing elements of Tremblay’s plays are identified and then used as a base for analyzing the two existing translations of this work. To conclude my thesis, I have put forth my own translation of this play.

  • Francophone and Anglophone Literary Translators in Canada Agnes Whitfield
    View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE provided by YorkSpace The Case For Local Specificities: Francophone And Anglophone Literary Translators In Canada Agnes Whitfield The focus of this article is the changing role of Anglophone and Francophone literary translators as cultural mediators in Canada since the 1960s. Using a comparative model sensitive to both differences and similarities, I will offer an overview of literary translation in Canada during this period. Drawing from my introductions to two recent edited volumes of portraits of individual Canadian translators,1 I will examine how translators from both cultures became the purveyors and advocates of their cultural “other”, and within what intercultural traditions they inscribe their own practice. Special attention will be paid to the role these translators have assumed as cultural and literary agents within each literary institution. In more general terms, this analysis from the perspective of translators as cultural agents will provide insights into how English and French- language literary translation in Canada has worked towards building local specificities during a period of global cultural change. Creating a Tradition of Literary Translation The decades from the 1960s to the present constitute the founding period of literary translation into both French and English in Canada, for reasons directly related to local imperatives.
