Paper. $30. ISBN 978-0-252-08162-0.Christine Kim's and Augie Fleras's books enter into the multifarious conversation of Canadian multiculturalism and the possibility of a national identity. Kim examines the internal factors and consequences of immigration to Canada and multiculturalism through her analysis of minor publics, public spaces, and the intimacies they may produce. Fleras considers the current Canadian multicultural paradigm by tracing immigration patterns to Canada and the consequences of Canadian immigration policies and legislation.In The Minor Intimacies of Race, Kim sets up her work with an analysis of the Bank of Canada's attempts to feature an Asian female scientist on the $100 bill. As Kim relays, the Asian-looking scientist was not met with great favour by initial focus groups previewing the design, but rather the response was that an Asian-looking woman could hardly represent Canada or Canadian values (pp. 1-3). Kim uses this response to demonstrate how the politics of multicultural recognition does not necessarily permeate the nation to the degree to which multicultural rhetoric does. That is, although Canada has adopted official multicultural policies since the late 1970s, multicultural recognition in everyday interactions has not yet reached the masses (otherwise the Asian scientist on the bank note would not have been scrutinized for not properly representing Canada).Central to Kim's book is the idea of publics. Kim uses the concept of 'dominant publics' and 'minor publics' to highlight social intimacy and feeling involved in the construction of publics, but especially minor publics. The term 'Asian Canadian' tends to be a catchall term used to describe a variety of ethnic groups or diasporas without noting the many cultural, linguistic, socio-economic, and geographical differences. For Kim, the idea of a 'minor public' represents a group of people that is brought together through shared experiences, feelings, community, and identity (although Kim asserts that this is not inherently tied to notions of race or ethnicity). Drawing further from mainstream YouTube videos, Twitter 'tweets', local Canadian artists, and contemporary Canadian literature, Kim uses media to highlight how Asian publics, many of which are often included in an Asian Canadian diaspora, may indeed be broken down further into minor publics.For Kim, feelings matter because a minor public can only remain in existence as long as their participants are engaged in active dialogue. They are much more ephemeral and momentary than a catchall term such as 'Asian

The overall theme of this journal arose some time ago from conversations between many of the contributors about the term 'health' and the different ways researchers have applied it to our understanding of the Indian residential school system in Canada. The more we discussed how the term had been applied, and mulled over the possible implications of those applications, the more we recognised the importance of exploring the boundaries of the term, going beyond its traditional usage referring to hospitalisation and medical treatment. As this special issue demonstrates, health, when used in the context of Canada's Indian residential schools, is linked directly to physical education programming, food and malnutrition, language and intergenerational trauma, extra-curricular programming, military preparedness, and cultural identity. Although this collection represents a small sample of the work being carried out by researchers in Canada, we hope it opens up the possibilities for research and understanding regarding healthrelated matters stemming from the residential school system.All of the contributors to this special issue are also politically engaged in one way or another in their various fields. As such, we paid close attention to the final reports of the Truth and Reconciliation Commission - a federally mandated body that was responsible for collecting and documenting the history of the Indian residential school system from the perspective of the students. Although the six-year investigation ended in 2015, research into the health aspects of the system continues as Indigenous people and Canadians wrestle with complex matters tied to health. All of the articles in this collection refer to some extent to the work of the Truth and Reconciliation Commission.Ian Mosby and Tracey Galloway's article, '"The abiding condition was hunger": assessing the long-term biological and health effects of malnutrition and hunger in Canada's residential schools', explores the present-day effects of historical malnutrition on Indigenous people and Indigenous communities. Citing malnutrition studies from around the world, the authors argue that many of the health problems that Indigenous people in Canada face can be traced to the residential schools. It is a groundbreaking study in that it links food deprivation, and the lack of access to healthy foods, to biological and psychological development, thus challenging typical interventions that aim to address health-related issues, such as obesity prevention and diabetes, among Indigenous people.

Eamon suggests the print community played an important role in the evolution of British North American society. Newspapers were relatively expensive in this period and so it not surprising that he finds that their readership was a small segment of the population disproportionately made up of members of the colonial elite. Newspaper publishing was not especially profitable, so in each of the two colonies appointment as the King’s printer would have been a financially desirable sinecure even if there was a cost in terms of editorial latitude. As well as disseminating news during the late eighteenth century, newspapers in Halifax and Quebec City evolved as print forums which served to mould social discourse and public taste. Eamon shows that members of the print community used the press to promote the coffeehouse as the preferred milieu for the colonial elite to socialise. He also shows that newspapers helped legitimise acceptance of the theatre in polite society. Newspapers and magazines also diffused useful knowledge for the benefit of their readers, in particular agricultural science. Eamon also situates the print community of Halifax and Quebec City in the wider context of the British Empire. Newspapers circulated widely across the empire and editors in Halifax and Quebec City drew upon their content to promote British values. Celebration of the monarchy was considered to be particularly important. Eamon cites for example a report from July 1789 in the Quebec Herald of prayers offered for the speedy restoration of the health of King George III by the numerous congregation of the Jewish synagogue in an unnamed Jamaican town, presumably Kingston. He also notes that such news often did not reach Halifax and Quebec City in a timely fashion. Furthermore when ships carrying print cargo were delayed, and in Quebec City where the harbour closed during the winter months, apologetic editors had to fill their pages with alternative content such as anecdotes and general essays. This is an important addition to the literature on the historical development of Canadian newspapers. Eamon shows that notwithstanding the logistical challenges in disseminating news across the world in this period, the British North American newspapers were an integral part of a British imperial print community. Perhaps he might have explored further the role the Halifax and Quebec City newspapers played in ensuring that both Nova Scotia and Quebec remained loyal to the British Crown during the American Revolution.

twentieth century, but Morgan insists that Carnochan was set apart by ‘the wider range of her interests, her sustained and close attention to archival detail and her love of research, and her insistence on the centrality of a particular place, not just events, to the past’ (p. 55). Morgan returns to the history of Niagara-on-the-Lake in the fourth chapter, examining how the Niagara Parks Commission, the Ontario Ministry of Tourism, the local government and various residents of the town laboured to establish Niagara-on-theLake as a tourist destination and to create for it ‘an identity that managed and married landscape, history, and culture’ (p. 113). Today, Niagara-on-the-Lake is best known as the site of the Shaw Festival, and Morgan has some interesting material on the controversies that accompanied the establishment of the Festival, although not as much as one would like about how the Festival affected the town’s historical identity. It also seems strange to end the story of Niagara-on-the-Lake in the 1970s, given that the town was one of the places centrally involved in the recent 200th anniversary commemorations of the War of 1812. The middle chapters deal with a very different theme – the efforts to create a historical narrative that established the importance of Indigenous peoples and contested ‘the forms of colonial knowledge that placed them outside of the historical time of the nation’ (p. 61). Chapter 2 focuses on two Six Nations historians, Elliott Moses and Milton Martin, ‘two civilized Indian men’ who approached the history of their people from very different perspectives (p. 175), illustrating the point that debates over history ‘take place between colonized people themselves, not just colonizer and colonized’ (p. 78). Chapter 3 examines the efforts of a sympathetic white woman, Celia B. File, who taught at the Mohawk school at Tyendinaga and produced an insightful memoir of her experiences, to ensure that the history of the Iroquois people in southern Ontario was not forgotten. Morgan’s efforts to link together her four studies in her conclusion are not entirely successful but the book still offers a wealth of new and original insights into the role of place and of the importance of local historians in the construction of history.

Three main challenges for research design of political leadership ranking studies are: (1) reliability of respondents, (2) reliability of measurements, and (3) comparison of subjects over different time periods. The problems presented by all three challenges can lead to respondents relying heavily on subjective reputation. It is easy to assume that overlooked and underrated leaders are repeatedly left behind as they are routinely labelled in ranking exercises as ‘middle of the pack’ or ‘adequate’. To help identify underrated leaders and overlooked measures, this article compares the results of an expert survey to a set of new objective measures on the same group of leaders.

Les problèmes présentés par ces trois défis peuvent impliquer que les sondés se reposent largement sur la réputation subjective. Il est facile de présupposer que les dirigeants ignorés et sous-estimés sont constamment mis de côté car ils sont régulièrement qualifiés dans les exercices de classement comme ‘milieu du lot’ ou ‘acceptables’.

During the First World War, 25 Canadian members of the federal Parliament and provincial legislatures recruited infantry battalions from their constituencies. Perceiving themselves to be Canada’s ‘natural leaders’, middle-aged parliamentary colonels believed prominence and success in public life exemplified the qualities of moral leadership and strong character necessary for military command. After landing in England, however, the vast majority of the units were broken up and most of the former commanders were denied front-line positions due to age and unfitness. This article details how the colonels coped with the loss of their battalions, which undermined their self-image as natural military leaders and challenged their masculine authority. Defending their reputations against accusations of cowardice and self-interest, the colonels were forced to reinterpret their sense of duty and manliness, thereby emphasising civic responsibility in place of battlefield service. Pendant la Première Guerre Mondiale, 25 membres canadiens du Parlement fédéral et des législatures provinciales ont recruté des bataillons d’infanterie dans leurs circonscriptions.

在第一次世界大战期间,25名加拿大联邦议会和省立法机构的成员从他们的选区招募步兵营。中年议会上校认为自己是加拿大的“天生领袖”,他们认为在公共生活中的突出和成功体现了军事指挥所必需的道德领导品质和坚强性格。然而,登陆英国后,绝大多数部队被解散,大多数前指挥官由于年龄和身体不适而被剥夺了前线职位。这篇文章详细描述了上校们是如何应对营的损失的,这破坏了他们作为天生军事领袖的自我形象,挑战了他们的男性权威。为了捍卫自己的声誉,上校们被迫重新诠释他们的责任感和男子气概,从而强调公民责任,而不是战场上的服务。由25名成员组成的加拿大人组成的议会,由加拿大人组成的议会,由加拿大人组成的议会,由加拿大人组成的议会,由加拿大人组成的议会,由加拿大人组成的议会,由加拿大人组成的议会,由加拿大人组成的议会,由加拿大人组成。在加拿大,有3个主要的薪金薪金是由“自然管理人员”、“行政管理人员”、“政治管理人员”和“质量管理人员”、“士气管理人员”和“军事管理人员”组成的。一次到达为了昂格勒泰酒店,然而,la grande majorite单位位于安大略省demantelees et那儿学生des旧诫se是vus开头拒绝者les职位德面前en存在为了年龄等为了不适当。这篇文章审查了以下评论:“上校们不公平面对(la perte de leurs bataillons)”,“上校们不公平面对(fafait face)”,“上校们不公平面对(fafaire face)”,“上校们不公平面对(fafaire face)”,“上校们不公平面对(fafaire face)”。在武装人员和'intérêt人员的指控中,在武装人员和'intérêt人员的指控中,在武装人员和医务人员的指控中,在武装人员和医务人员的指控中,在军事人员和医务人员的指控中,在军事人员和医务人员的指控中,在军事人员和医务人员的指控中,都是有责任的。

Perceiving themselves to be Canada’s ‘natural leaders’, middle-aged parliamentary colonels believed prominence and success in public life exemplified the qualities of moral leadership and strong character necessary for military command. After landing in England, however, the vast majority of the units were broken up and most of the former commanders were denied front-line positions due to age and unfitness. This article details how the colonels coped with the loss of their battalions, which undermined their self-image as natural military leaders and challenged their masculine authority. Defending their reputations against accusations of cowardice and self-interest, the colonels were forced to reinterpret their sense of duty and manliness, thereby emphasising civic responsibility in place of battlefield service. Pendant la Première Guerre Mondiale, 25 membres canadiens du Parlement fédéral et des législatures provinciales ont recruté des bataillons d’infanterie dans leurs circonscriptions.

With the exception of First Nations, Métis, and Inuit people, most Canadians enjoy water security. Indigenous people are ninety times more likely than other Canadians to lack piped water. These disparities result from and maintain the colonial relationship between Canada and Indigenous peoples. As displaced people with values often in opposition to neo-liberalism, Indigenous people present an existential threat to Canadian identity, this identity having been created around possession of a vast land that extends to the North Pole, and subsequent heavy resource extraction throughout this land. To maintain Canada’s national identity and the activities that support it, Indigenous people have to be pushed to the figurative and literal fringes and rendered invisible. Five short case studies of water insecurity demonstrate how neo-liberalism props up and legitimises decentralised water governance in Canada, which in turn promotes and maintains environmental inequality, Indigenous marginalisation and, ultimately, the Canadian identity. A l’exception des peuples des Premières Nations, des Métis et des Inuits, la plupart des Canadiens bénéficient de la sécurité de l’eau. Les peuples indigènes ont quatre-vingt-dix fois plus de chances que les autres Canadiens de manquer d’eau courante. Ces disparités sont le résultat et maintiennent la relation coloniale entre le Canada et les peuples indigènes. En tant que populations déplacées ayant des valeurs souvent en opposition au néolibéralisme, les peuples indigènes présentent une menace existentielle à l’identité canadienne, cette identité ayant été créée autour de la possession d’un vaste pays qui s’étend jusqu’au Pôle Nord, et la forte extraction ultérieure de ressources à travers tout le pays. Afin de maintenir l’identité nationale du Canada et les activités qui la soutiennent, les peuples indigènes ont été repoussés vers les marges figurées et littérales et ont étés rendus invisibles. Cinq courtes études de cas d’insécurité de l’eau démontrent comment le néolibéralisme soutient et légitime la gouvernance décentralisée de l’eau au Canada, qui à son tour promeut et maintient l’inégalité environnementale, la marginalisation indigène, et, finalement, l’identité canadienne.
除了第一民族、姆萨姆蒂斯人和因纽特人,大多数加拿大人都享有水安全。土著居民缺乏自来水的可能性是其他加拿大人的90倍。这些差异源于加拿大和土著人民之间的殖民关系,并维持着这种关系。作为与新自由主义价值观相悖的流离失所者,原住民对加拿大的身份构成了生存威胁,这种身份是在拥有延伸到北极的大片土地以及随后在这片土地上进行大量资源开采的情况下建立起来的。为了保持加拿大的民族特性和支持它的活动,土著人民必须被推到象征性和字面上的边缘,并被忽视。五个关于水不安全的简短案例研究表明,新自由主义是如何支持和合法化加拿大分散的水治理的,这反过来又促进和维持了环境不平等、土著边缘化,并最终影响了加拿大的身份认同。各国人民例外、加拿大人与因纽特人的交换、加拿大人与其他国家的交换、加拿大人与其他国家的交换。法国人不喜欢四分之一的法国人,而加拿大人不喜欢四分之一的法国人。这些不平等的薪金是指维持加拿大殖民地与土著人民之间的关系的薪金。En的证物,人口deplacees ayant值可是在反对派盟neoliberalisme les peuples indigene presentent一个威胁existentielle一l 'identite法裔加拿大女子,这个identite ayant高频账户autour de la占有用品vaste支付qui s 'etend一直'au极北部,然后拉的强项提取ulterieure de ressources travers全部支付。在“维持加拿大国民身份”一词之后,“所有的活动”、“所有的人”、“所有的人”、“所有的人”、“所有的人”、“所有的人”、“所有的人”、“所有的人”、“所有的人”、“所有的人”、“所有的人”、“所有的人”、“所有的人”都是无形的。五国法院对加拿大的加拿大的加拿大的;加拿大的加拿大的;加拿大的加拿大的;加拿大的;加拿大的;加拿大的;加拿大的;加拿大的;
