St. Catharines Riding MP a Graduate of Brock University, Dykstra Was fi Rst Elected to the House of Commons in 2006 Election ’08: It’s your decision - page 10-11 NIAGARATHE COMMUNITY NEWSPAPER OF NIAGARA NEW COLLEGE S FREE October 10, 2008 Vol 39 • Issue 2 Students living on pennies By CORY WILKINS Staff Writer Many college students face chal- urtle lenges during their fi rst year and liv- ing on a budget is just one of them. T Students, forced to adapt to new surroundings, often struggle with new experiences such as student living, orientation and an increase in the amount of schoolwork. Not all students battle with these issues, although living on a budget is one most have in common. A college program may only be a oving few short years, but the expenses can linger for much longer. Some L experts project the average cost of post-secondary education to be upwards of $10,000 per year. Liv- ing on a budget will help keep that estimated cost to a minimum. Many students apply for the On- tario Student Assistance Program (OSAP) – an interest-free student loan – as well as for a number of other ause fi nancial aids and grants, yet the fi - See page 7 nancial burden can still be painful. C According to the Ontario College Application Services, the average cost of one year’s tuition is about $3,500. Add the cost of residence or house rent – roughly $5,000 per school year – and not much money is left from that estimated $10,000. “The best advice I can give stu- dents about living on a budget is to plan ahead,” said Darren Gray, 23, a student of the Business Administration – Professional Golf Management program at the Niagara-on-the-Lake campus. “Prospective students should plan their budget for the year, but also break that down into monthly or weekly budgets.

Referencias de las sentencias citadas. resumen El modelo canadiense de regulación de la competición electoral es, probable- mente, uno de los más interesantes del mundo, al colocar la preocupación por la equidad –o la igualdad de oportunidades entre los competidores– en el centro del debate. En su primera parte, este artículo ofrece un resumen de la construcción del modelo, prestando atención al papel que ha tenido en este proceso el diálogo entre el poder legislativo y el poder judicial. La segunda parte trata sobre los debates judiciales más relevantes en relación con cuestiones como los gastos de terceros, las normas sobre radiodifusión en los períodos electorales y los requisitos para el acceso a la financiación pública, mostrando que estos debates, en realidad, trataban sobre una cuestión ideológica más amplia: si en Canadá debía prevalecer un modelo (1) El presente artículo ha sido elaborado durante una estancia de investigación en la Universidad de Toronto, en el verano de 2012, financiada por el International Council of Ca- nadian Studies (Faculty Research Program).

Many of its founding members had belonged to groups such as the Socialist Party of Canada, One Big Union, the Socialist Labor Party, the Industrial Workers of the World, and other socialist, Marxist or Labour parties or clubs. The party was founded as the Canadian section of the Comintern, and was thus similar to Communist parties around the world. The party alternated between legality and illegality during the 1920s and 1930s. It was initially illegal, and created the Workers' Party of Canada in 1922 as its public face.

  • Introduction 1
    Notes Introduction 1 . Similar attempts to link poetry to immediate political occasions have been made by Mark van Wienen in Partisans and Poets: The Political Work of American Poetry in the Great War and by John Marsh’s anthology You Work Tomorrow . See also Nancy Berke’s Women Poets on the Left and John Lowney’s History, Memory, and the Literary Left: Modern American Poetry, 1935–1968 . 2 . Jos é E. Lim ó n discusses the “mixture of poetry and politics” that informed the Chicano movements of the 1960s and 1970s (81). On Vietnam antiwar poetry, see Bibby. There are, of course, countless studies of individual authors that trace their relationships to politics and social movements. I incorporate the relevant studies throughout the chapters. 3 . In analogy to Wallerstein’s model, the literary world has been conceptualized as a largely autonomous cultural space constituted by power struggles between centers, semi-peripheries, and peripheries, most prominently by Franco Moretti and Pascale Casanova (cf. Moretti; Casanova). But since Wallerstein insists that the world-system is concerned with world-economies (global capitalism) and world-empires (nation-states aiming for geopolitical dominance), systems, that is, which cut across cultural and institutional zones, it seems more plausible to posit the modern world-system as the historical horizon of textual production and interpretation. One of the first uses of world-systems analysis for a concep- tualization of postmodernity and postmodern art was Fredric Jameson’s essay “Culture and Finance Capital” ( Cultural Turn 136–61). 4 . Ramazani remains elusive about the extraliterary reference of these poets’ imagination.
