Download or read book Finding Refuge in Canada written by George Melnyk and published by Athabasca University Press. This book was released on 2021-02-19 with total page 197 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Millions of people are displaced each year by war, persecution, and famine and the global refugee population continues to grow. Canada has often been regarded as a benevolent country, welcoming refugees from around the globe. However, refugees have encountered varying kinds of reception in Canada. Finding Refuge in Canada: Narratives of Dislocation is a collection of personal narratives about the refugee experience in Canada. It includes critical perspectives from authors from diverse backgrounds, including refugees, advocates, front-line workers, private sponsors, and civil servants. The narratives collected here confront dominant public discourse about refugee identities and histories and provide deep insight into the social, political, and cultural challenges and opportunities that refugees experience in Canada. Contributors consider Canada’s response to various groups of refugees and how Canadian perspectives on war, conflict, and peace are constructed through the refugee support experience. These individual stories humanize the global refugee crisis and challenge readers to reflect on the transformative potential of more equitable policies and processes. Contributions by Howard Adelman, Irene Boisier Policzer, Shelley Campagnola, Matida Daffeh, Eusebio Garcia, Julia Holland, Bill Janzen, Katharine Lake Berz, Michael Molloy, Adam Policzer, Pablo Policzer, Victor Porter, Boban Stojanović, Cyrus Sundar Singh, and Flora Terah

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Until the late 1960s, the authorities on abortion were for the most part men—politicians, clergy, lawyers, physicians, all of whom had an interest in regulating women’s bodies. Even today, when we hear women speak publicly about abortion, the voices are usually those of the leaders of women’s and abortion rights organizations, women who hold political office, and, on occasion, female physicians. We also hear quite frequently from spokeswomen for anti-abortion groups. Rarely, however, do we hear the voices of ordinary women—women whose lives have been in some way touched by abortion. Their thoughts typically owe more to human circumstance than to ideology, and without them, we run the risk of thinking and talking about the issue of abortion only in the abstract. Without Apology seeks to address this issue by gathering the voices of activists, feminists, and scholars as well as abortion providers and clinic support staff alongside the stories of women whose experience with abortion is more personal. With the particular aim of moving beyond the polarizing rhetoric that has characterized the issue of abortion and reproductive justice for so long, Without Apology is an engrossing and arresting account that will promote both reflection and discussion.

Download or read book Understanding School Choice in Canada written by Lynn Bosetti and published by University of Toronto Press. This book was released on 2016-08-04 with total page 192 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Understanding School Choice in Canada provides a nuanced and theoretical overview of the formation and rise of school choice policies in Canada. Drawing on twenty years of work, Lynn Bosetti and Dianne Gereluk analyze the philosophical, historical, political, and social principles that underpin the formation and implementation of school choice policies in the provinces and territories. Bosetti and Gereluk offer theoretical frameworks for considering the parameters of school choice policies that are aligned and attentive to Canadian educational contexts. This robust overview successfully shifts the debate away from ideology in order to facilitate an understanding that the spectrum of school choice policy in Canada is a response to the varying political challenges in society at large. This book is essential reading for those who desire a deeper understanding of school choice policies in Canada.

Book excerpt: Most Canadians believe that their health is shaped by luck, genetics, lifestyle choices, and treatment options--and government agencies, public health units, and disease associations all reinforce this perception. This study, however, tells a different story, arguing that it is the social determinants of health, as imposed by the financial markets, that dictate the health of Canadians today. Showing that health care can be greatly improved with simple changes to social policy, the discussion describes the impact of food, housing, employment, education, and social services on the nation`s health.

Download or read book Refuge Or Asylum? written by Howard Adelman and published by North York, Ont. : York Lane Press. This book was released on 1990 with total page 256 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This collection of essays was provoked, in large part, by recent changes in Canada's policy towards refugees: the elimination of a designated class category in mid-1990 and the introduction of a new refugee determination law (Bill C-55). Under the latter piece of legislation, individuals must claim Convention Refugee Status before a quasi-judicial panel, and, if successful, enter the immigrant stream to become permanent residents in Canada. The tremendous backlog of cases which has resulted provides reason to question the lack of provision for temporary protection of refugees and to reassess official Canadian attitudes in general. The essays (divided into three sections entitled 'Theoretical Perspectives', 'Canadian Policy', and 'Countries of First Asylum') simply provide the background to the current situation. The four essays in the first part tackle the theoretical issues. Specifically, they distinguish between temporary asylum and permanent refuge and try to explain why, on an international level, the concept of protection for refugees has increasingly expanded to include an obligation to grant citizenship. The next five essays have similar concerns, but deal with them on the level of Canadian policy. Moreover, they concentrate on the issue of State sovereignty as being the vital factor in the movement from temporary to permanent protection. The final four essays consider selected countries of first asylum (Sudan, Thailand and Pakistan) and suggest that the international community, by creating a series of bureaucratic checks to control access borders, has also created a bureaucracy to aid and protect refugees within camps which, under the rationale of providing aid and assistance, further restricts refugees' rights of movement. In these essays it is argued that this dichotomy between self-reliance and restriction is ultimately more important than whether or not refugees are granted temporary or permanent protection.

Download or read book Making Political Choices written by Harold D. Clarke and published by University of Toronto Press. This book was released on 2008-11-01 with total page 304 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Recent national elections in Canada and the United States have been exciting, consequential contests. In the 2004 federal election in Canada, the Liberal Party narrowly clung to power after a volatile and bitter battle with the new Conservative Party. In 2006, the Conservative Party won a fragile victory, replacing the scandal-ridden Liberal government. In the 2000 American presidential election, Republican George W. Bush became the first candidate in over 100 years to capture the presidency without a majority popular vote. Four years later, Bush finally attained a narrow popular mandate but only after a hard fought campaign. Then, in 2006, the Republicans suffered a stunning reversal of political fortune, losing control of both Houses of Congress, as public opinion turned massively against the president. In Making Political Choices: Canada and the United States, Harold Clarke, Allan Kornberg, and Thomas Scotto employ a wealth of new survey data to describe these elections and evaluate competing theories of party support and voter turnout. While examining various arguments, the authors contend that a valence politics model provides a powerful explanation of voting behavior in Canada, the United States, and other mature democracies.
