Book Synopsis Place, Health, and Diversity by : Melissa D. Giesbrecht
Download or read book Place, Health, and Diversity written by Melissa D. Giesbrecht and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2016-06-03 with total page 266 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Although health equity and diversity-focussed research has begun to gain momentum, there is still a paucity of research from health geographers that explicitly explores how geographic factors, such as place, space, scale, community, and location, inform multiple axes of difference. Such axes can include residential location, age, sex, gender, race/ethnicity, culture, religion, socio-economic status, marital status, sexual orientation, education level, and immigration status. Specifically focussing on Canada’s rapidly changing society, which is becoming increasingly pluralized and diverse, this book examines the place-health-diversity intersection in this national context. Health geographers are well positioned to offer a valuable contribution to diversity-focussed research because place is inextricably linked to differential experiences of health. For example, access to health care and health promoting services and resources is largely influenced by where one is physically and socially situated within the web of diversity. Furthermore, applying geographic concepts like place, in both the physical and social sense, allows researchers to explore multiple axes of difference simultaneously. Such geographic perspectives, as presented in this book, offer new insights into what makes diverse people, in diverse places, with access to diverse resources (un)healthy in different ways in Canada and beyond.

Book excerpt: In distinguishing themselves from Americans, Canadians have long used the language of metaphor to describe their society as a mosaic and the United States as a melting pot. To undertake this difficult challenge of comparing the cultural myths and realities of Canada and the United States, the C.D. Howe Institute drew on the expertise of two of Canada's most esteemed sociologists, Jeffrey G. Reitz and Raymond Breton, both of whom are professors of sociology at the University of Toronto. Their study, the result of an exhaustive review of the available public opinion data, helps bring a picture of Canadians and Americans into clearer focus. Topics covered are: Canadian beliefs about the mosaic and the melting pot; attitudes toward the retention of minority cultures; the extent of cultural retention; and prejudice and discrimination.

Book Synopsis Rethinking Who We Are by : Paul U. Angelini
Download or read book Rethinking Who We Are written by Paul U. Angelini and published by Fernwood Publishing. This book was released on 2020-07-10T00:00:00Z with total page 455 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Rethinking Who We Are takes a non-conventional approach to understanding human difference in Canada. Contributors to this volume critically re-examine Canadian identity by rethinking who we are and what we are becoming by scrutinizing the “totality” of difference. Included are analyses on the macro differences among Canadians, such as the disparities produced from unequal treatment under Canadian law, human rights legislation and health care. Contributors also explore the diversities that are often treated in a non-traditional manner on the bases of gender, class, sexuality, disAbility and Indigeniety. Finally, the ways in which difference is treated in Canada’s legal system, literature and the media are explored with an aim to challenge existing orthodoxy and push readers to critically examine their beliefs and ideas, particularly in an age where divisive, racist and xenophobic politics and attitudes are resurfacing.
Book Synopsis Media and Minorities by : Augie Fleras
Download or read book Media and Minorities written by Augie Fleras and published by Thompson Educational Pub.. This book was released on 2001 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Canadians take great pride in their country's commitment to multiculturalism. Institutions that deny ethnic and racial diversity are not only seen as offensive, but they also compromise the challenge of crafting a progressive Canada. The mainstream media in Canada, through its awesome influence over our lives, wields sufficient power to set agendas, construct realities, and frame issues to advance or retard this cause. In defining what is acceptable and desirable, it provides the elusive ingredient for creating a society in which individuals live together respecting their differences. Media and Minorities examines the representational basis of media-minority relations in Canada. In so doing, it hopes to make a modest contribution to advancing the cause of a Canada that is inclusive and equitable, workable and fair.
Book Synopsis Multiculturalism and Religious Identity by : Sonia Sikka
Download or read book Multiculturalism and Religious Identity written by Sonia Sikka and published by McGill-Queen's Press - MQUP. This book was released on 2014-06-01 with total page 410 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How, and to what extent, can religion be included within commitments to multiculturalism? Multiculturalism and Religious Identity addresses this question by examining the political recognition and management of religious identity in Canada and India. In multicultural policy, practice, and literature, religion has until recently not been included within broader discussions of multiculturalism, perhaps due to worries of potential for conflict with secularism. This collection undertakes a contemporary analysis of how the Canadian and Indian states each approach religious diversity through social and political policies, as well as how religion and secularism meet both philosophically and politically in contested public space. Although Canada and India have differing political and religious histories - leading to different articulations of multiculturalism, religious diversity, and secularism - both countries share a commitment to ensuring fair treatment for the different religious communities they include. Combining broader theoretical and normative reflections with close case studies, Multiculturalism and Religious Identity leads the way to addressing these timely issues in the Canadian and Indian contexts.

Book excerpt: Essay from the year 2010 in the subject English Language and Literature Studies - Literature, language: English, abstract: Cultural diversity of Canada is a fact that needs more observation. Canada is a huge country that is divided into different territories with people living in terms of their cultural, ethnic and religious identity. Dionne Brand is one of protesting Canadian writers who scoped out in her novel What we all long for the "face" of current problem on examples of a group of youngsters.The whole observation is critically compiled, so that a reader could have a possibility to re-think the truth of modern society even in civilized countries, such as Canada.
Download or read book Canadistan written by Sarah Yasini and published by Independently Published. This book was released on 2019-04-09 with total page 323 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The culture and values of Canada have been long gone. It is now a multicultural country, but is it really? We Canadians have forgotten our real culture, from playing hockey, celebrating our former Prime Minister's achievements, and eating poutine with gravy. Canada has been celebrating cultures around the world, because they believe that "cultures are all equal." No, they are not. Islamic cultures promote pedophilia, honour killings, and child marriage, all while claiming that "it's their culture." People are throwing a blind eye to this topic, and not protesting for people's rights in the Middle East. People these days are fake feminists. You can not support Sharia law, and at the same time be a feminist, the two don't go together. We now hold thousands of refugees, with many in support of it. When crimes happen because of refugees, people are more concerned about "Islamophobia," which doesn't even exist. Media says that the Jihadis were "mentally ill.", and that "Islam means peace." How is a ideology so violent not taken seriously in our country? The more we ignore the violence that Muslims ahold, more violent and sex attacks will happen. We say "diversity is our strength", but is diversity really a good thing? England is the powerhouse of mass immigration. England is not the same anymore, with Sharia zones, mosques being built at a rapid rate, and Muslims controlling the whole country. Pierre Trudeau changed Canada forever by making it a multicultural country, allowing many immigrants from different countries to settle in Canada for a new and better life. Immigrating is good for someone seeking economic opportunity, but is Multiculturalism really a great and beautiful thing? Absolutely not. From all the useless protests that happen in the West, such as the annual Women's March and the Slut Walk, why are people forgetting the very thing that oppresses and abuses woman around the world? That's right, Islam. Now, in Canada, the Muslim population is increasing, and fast.With people in the Women's March embracing the hijab, and even reciting the azaan, why aren't feminists fighting for women's rights in the Middle East? Muslims want Sharia law, that is what they are taught to believe from a very young age. Canada is not a Sharia country, it believes in freedom, and Democracy. Islam shouldn't be in the West, they aren't compatible with each other. We Canadians should stand up for ourselves, and not let anyone take our country away from us, before it's too late. Sarah Yasini is a high school student from Ontario, Canada. She is a free speech advocate, and runs her own blog called @Sarahyasini.blog, in which she criticises Islam, feminism, and political correctness. In the future, she aspires to be a lawyer.
Download or read book Belonging? written by Keith G. Banting and published by Institute for Research on Public Policy. This book was released on 2007 with total page 716 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Diversity is one of Canada's defining characteristics. Yet here, as in other Western democracies, diversity policies are being called into question by developments such as the growing salience of identity, race and religion. Do minorities really feel they belong to the country? Is discrimination still a reality? Is social cohesion being strained? In this volume, leading scholars from Canada, Europe and the United States explore two broad policy agendas: first, the multicultural agenda, which focuses on recognizing cultural differences, helping minorities express their distinct identities and practices, and building more inclusive conceptions of citizenship; and second, the integration agenda, which seeks to bring minorities into the mainstream, strengthen the sense of mutual support and solidarity, and reinforce the bonds of a common community. The authors of these 15 chapters and 8 commentaries examine these questions from a range of perspectives, with a focus on ethnocultural minorities and indigenous peoples. In their concluding chapter, the editors discuss priorities that emerge from the analysis and relate them to the objectives of strengthening belonging and shared citizenship. Book jacket.
