The impact of the growing ethnic diversity of Canada's largest cities has been widely discussed. However, middle-class neighborhoods in recent ethnocultural transition have not been explored, especially the representations of these changes by their inhabitants. In this paper, we study attitudes of young families, immigrant and non-immigrant, towards ethnic transformations. When raising their children, young family households seem particularly concerned with their living environment and the representation of the changes occurring within their neighbourhood. Our study builds on fifty interviews conducted with families attending public places (parks and public libraries) in two neighbourhoods in the Montreal metropolitan area-one in the suburb, the other in the inner city. While increasing ethnic diversity does not seem to have a direct impact on their residential choices, our results show the more perplexing relation of young families towards changes within their environment, as these extend well beyond differentiated urban experiences between suburbs and the inner city. Schools, libraries, cultural and leisure activities organized in parks also appear as important places in the meeting of young families with the Unexpected Other. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

This article explores the musical culture of Kirkland Lake miners and considers one of its dimensions, as expressed by their musical practices, whether classical or pop, vocal or instrumental, performed at concerts or accompanying dances or parades. With access to the names and occupations of all the employees of two of the major mining companies in the city. Lake Shore and Wright-Hargreaves Gold Mines, we sought to determine if the miners were linked in one way or another to the different music events reported in the local paper, the Northern News, over the year of 1934. In our view, the diversity of musical practices observed could be explained by the presence of many ethnic communities in the mining workforce, and also by widely different working conditions, depending on whether a miner worked underground or at the surface.

Digital publishing is still in its infancy, but it is useful to relate what might be called the prologue to the history of digital publishing in French in Quebec. This article presents the actors who have contributed, and continue to contribute, to the transition from print to digital culture in Quebec. It offers a panoramic view of this transition in the various publishing genres from newspapers and magazines, to journals, books, theses, dictionaries, bibliographical databases, and legal texts. A typology of the actors working in these different genres emerges, comprising publisher, aggregator (general or specialist), distributor, production technician, retailer, and librarian. The builders of Quebec's digital publishing milieu are acknowledged through brief descriptions of their projects and enterprises. Many of them have displayed a notable capacity to engage in the development of new models for the production and diffusion of culture and research. The quality of their products, services, and expertise has been recognized several times over through international partnerships and co-operative ventures. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

This paper is based on confidential data from some Censuses and examines the factors of inequality of earnings and of poverty relative to Canadian immigrants during the period of 1990 to 2006. The results of our analysis show that immigrants from developing countries have been the most harmed by economic fluctuations. They have less income than either native-born Canadians or immigrants from other countries; in addition, the return on their human capital has diminished between 1991 and 2006. The importance of migratory flux from developing countries has increased the social heterogeneity of the immigrant population, and has aggravated the inequality of income within the group of immigrants from the South as well as between them and other immigrants.

When Bishop Charbonneau arrived in Montréal, the situation of immigration was a unique occasion to express his social convictions and his open mind on matters of housing and catholic action network. His pragmatic attitude was different from the ideological attitude of traditional nationalists. This paper first reviews how perspectives adopted on immigration had changed since the economic crisis of 1929, leading Charbonneau and the catholic action movements to pay attention to the concrete and human aspects of housing. Meanwhile, a real fight of power took place between the network of specialised movements of catholic action, approved by the archbishop, and more nationalistic associations like Association catholique de la jeunesse canadienne (ACJC), under Jesuit leadership since the beginning of the 20th century.

The release of a new study guide for immigrants aiming to become Canadian citizens in 2009 was the first major reform of this document since its inception in 1995. This paper examines the coverage of the Anglo-Canadian and Franco-Québécois press surrounding the new citizenship guide. Rather than supporting the widely accepted thesis that Canada is marked by a « collision of identities », our study suggests the emergence of an implicit alliance between the two Canadian “solitudes” with respect to their understanding of citizenship. In particular, the two groups of newspapers agree upon the necessity to protect « acquired gains » of Canadian society against the beliefs and practices of an uncivilized « Other ». Nevertheless, we should not jump to conclusions: does the convergence of media representations of Canadian citizenship really reflect the emergence of a shared collective identity in Quebec and Canada?

Sustainable development is at the heart of planning policies of Canadian cities. Reconciling heritage preservation and urban intensification, yet both on the agenda of sustainable development, involves negotiation skills from the municipalities between, on the one hand, residents' associations and, on the other hand, real estate companies. Each project involving modification of historic buildings requires a set of concessions from the various actors, able to mobilize a different set of defensive resources. In this paper, we propose to study the case of the district of Lower Town East, in Ottawa, where a eight-story building project, requiring the destruction of old houses in the name of urban intensification, has generated a strong mobilization of the citizens and the press. The case of Lower Town East is a perfect illustration of the difficult association between heritage and intensification. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

This paper presents the results of a qualitative construct analysis (Kelly, 1995) survey conducted with 71 students enrolled in French as a second language courses at five Canadian universities. The objectives of this research are to conduct a census of language technological activities that students have used in their French classes and to categorize their characteristics. A typology of six major types of activities based on seven bipolar continua is proposed. This typology presents different profiles for each type of activity and provides educational tools for language teachers. The typology draws on some aspects of existing models from Chamberland, Lavoie, and Marquis (1996), Burnett (2000), Poellbhuber and Boulanger (2001), Perrault (2003) and Cantin (2008).

Objective: To present points of agreement and disagreement about antipsychotics. Since the appearance of 2nd generation long-acting antipsychotics (LAA), and given the high frequency of noncompliance with antipsychotics in psychotic disorders, LAAs have attracted more interest in psychiatriv literature. However, their use is suboptimal, globally, and is also subject to significant national disparities. ln this context, the Association des médecins psychiatres du Québec (AMPQ) has asked for a review of the evidence concerning LAA efficiency and tolerance, and has called for consensual clinical reflection on the benefits and obstacles of prescribing them, as weil as potential solutions, including administrative and judiciary dimensions. Methods: The AMPQ established an expert committee, from 4 Quebec universities, which was responsible for preparing the review paper. The committee intended to appropriately provide c1inicians with the different aspects of LAA use. The committee produced a qualitative and selective review. Results: Mean LAA prescription rates observed in Canada are around 6% and data to confirm this are scarce. A 15% to 25% rate could be suggested. Conclusion: The committee has submitted the Quebec long-acting antipsychotic algorithm (QAAPAPLE, derived from the French acronym) as a result of the consensus reached by the 4 university psychiatry departments.

In Canada, the arrival of immigrants belonging to religions other than Christianity invites researchers to take into account the religious variable for understanding the construction of identity and integration among young adults. This paper addresses four issues through qualitative analysis of focus group and individual interviews of young adult second-generation immigrants, from Christian families in the Montreal and Quebec context: youth and its characteristics; immigration and second generation forms of socialization; religion, in terms of practices, relation to ethnicity and family project, and contemporary individualization, and, finally, the influence of the context on individual experience.

In this paper, I argue that the conflict between Canada's linguistically defined founding nations helped to consolidate multiculturalism as part of Canadian national identity in the 1990s. As a side-effect -- or condition -- of this consolidation, multiculturalism abandoned the language of groups and was redefined in liberal-individualist terms. As such, it was unprepared to reintegrate the claims for group rights and parallel institutions that reemerged on the political scene in the early 2000s. Today, it looks as if Canada is joining -- albeit as a latecomer -- the widespread trend of countries that are redefining their national identities yet again in terms of (one) shared culture and community.

This paper describes the process of inauguration of the first Centre d'interventions en musicothérapie (CIM) (centre for music therapy interventions), in Québec. It discusses the main steps of its creation, the reasons motivating its development and the different stages experienced for the birth of this site. How did the project emerges And, why the need to create such an establishment? The CIM offers services to different populations in various settings, according to requests. It allows music therapists to work within a team, to enrich their practice in a favourable atmosphere in order to complete their internship or to see their clients evolve. The opening of the space in September 2007 is the realization of a dream: to receive populations with specific needs in comfortable and adapted settings, including upholding and respecting the standards of the Code of Ethics of the Canadian Association for Music Therapy (CAMT).
