Excerpt from The Story of Confederation: With Postscript on Quebec Situation The published volume is extremely valuable as a record and for certain observations by one of the makers of Confederation, but it covers only the organic stage of Union - from the Charlottetown conferences to the actual culmination in 1867, and Confederation is still in the making. It has had treatment in the magazines and in several small volumes not purporting to be more than readable reviews of the bringing about of the B.N.A. Act, the Magna Charta of Canada as a dominion, but none of the publications to which I have referred covers the wide field which Mr. Gosnell has surveyed in his book to which this is a foreword. There have, of course, been several useful and able commentaries upon Confederation from the constitutional point of view, largely based upon judicial interpretation and particularly upon decisions of the Privy Council. With fifty years of perspective, we should now be in a position to judge more or less accurately of the merits of the work of the architects of the federal structure, and to view successfully federal relations under a variety of trying strains and over a wide extent of territory. It is true that as a result of conditions arising out of this war Confederation has yet to stand its severest test, but there is every hope that sectional and racial considerations, which are the lions in the pathway, will not be permitted to prevail. Mr. Gosnell modestly claims to have written only a journalistic review of Confederation. This may be true, but it is the kind of review which appeals to the ordinary reader who wishes to arrive at a serviceable knowledge of the subject, and in that, I think, consists its merits.

"A Woman of Valour is the biography of Marie-Louise Bouchard Labelle, a French-Canadian woman who found love with a priest thirty-three years her senior. Against all social convention, they lived, produced three children, and built a life together after fleeing their village. However, after several years together, Bouchard's husband ultimately chose to return to the priesthood, abandoning his family as a result. Through interviews and documentation, Claire Trepanier tells Bouchard's story of survival while highlighting the history of women's stature in Canada, and raising a question about the celibacy of Catholic priests."--Publisher's description

"From the time of its inception in Canada, multiculturalism has generated varied reactions, none more starkly than between French and English Canadians. In this groundbreaking new work, Eve Haque examines the Government of Canada's attempt to forge a national policy of unity based on 'multiculturalism within a bilingual framework, ' a formulation that emerged out of the Royal Commission on Bilingualism and Biculturalism (1963-70). Uncovering how the policies of bilingualism and multiculturalism are inextricably linked, Haque investigates the ways in which they operate together as part of our contemporary national narrative to favour the language and culture of Canada's two 'founding nations' at the expense of other groups. Haque uses previously overlooked archival material, including transcripts of royal commission hearings, memos, and reports, to reveal the conflicts underlying the emergence of this ostensibly seamless policy. By integrating two important areas of scholarly concern -- the evolution and articulation of language rights in Canada, and the history of multiculturalism in the country, Haque provides powerful insight into ongoing asymmetries between Canada's various cultural and linguistic groups."--Publisher's website.

Social entrepreneurship and social innovation both seek to improve the world through social change. Whereas social entrepreneurship revolves around the business side of change, social innovation focuses on the processes through which that change is generated. This textbook provides a comprehensive analysis of both topics, covering all the characteristics and elements of social innovation and social entrepreneurship, from a conceptual and practical perspective. The book has four sections: 1) Basics and concepts of Social Innovation and Social Entrepreneurship; 2) Business models and generation of value in social enterprises; 3) Social innovation within traditional companies, and 4) Definition and alignment of the impact of social innovation and entrepreneurship. Students and any practitioners that want to know about social innovation or social entrepreneurship will be exposed to contemporary topics in the field as well as a variety of cases and tools for its development. With its learning objectives, reflective questions, the definition of key concepts, and exercises, this book is the definitive text for advanced undergraduate and graduate courses in social innovation and social entrepreneurship.

This remarkable collection of essays by leading Indigenous scholars focuses on the themes of freedom, liberation and Indigenous resurgence as they relate to the land. They analyze treaties, political culture, governance, environmental issues, economy, and radical social movements from an anti-colonial Indigenous perspective in a Canadian context. Editor Leanne Simpson (Nishnaabekwe) has solicited Indigenous writers that place Indigenous freedom as their highest political goal, while turning to the knowledge, traditions, and culture of specific Indigenous nations to achieve that goal. The authors offer frank and political analysis and commentary of the kind not normally found in mainstream books, journals, and magazines.
