Quebec Women and Legislative Representation

  • Publisher: UBC Press

Women represent a slight majority of Quebec's population, yet they continue to occupy a minority of seats in its National Assembly and in Canada's House of Commons and Senate. To explain why this is, Manon Tremblay examines Quebec women's political engagements from 1791 to the present. She traces the path that led to women obtaining the rights to vote and run for office and then draws on statistics and interviews with female politicians to paint an in-depth portrait of women's under-representation and its main causes. Her innovative account not only documents the significant democratic deficit in Canada's parliamentary systems, it also outlines strategies to improve women's access to legislative representation in Canada and elsewhere.

Canada's Spies Attacked Me

This is a true story about how the Canadian Security Intelligence Service (CSIS) attacked me in America. The story starts back in 1998 when my father Mario Garzone, a Croatian-Canadian, telephoned the Croatian Embassy in Canada asking for a list of publishers for a book he was writing on Nostradamus. He later faxed a sample of his writings as a gift to the Croatian Embassy. Either CSIS or the Canadian Security Establishment (CSE) monitored these contacts. Once being brought to the attention of Canada's security establishment, my family was doomed. For you see, Canada and Britain fought a secret war against the Croatian military on behalf of the Serbs, when Canadian Peacekeepers went to the Balkans during the breakup of Yugoslavia in the early 1990's. The book contains the Nostradamus writings that drove CSIS into a witch hunt frenzy.

McGill University

The appointment of John William Dawson as principal in 1855 brought modern ideas of education to Montreal, and he imparted to the emerging institution his own deeep commitment to science. The Molson Hall in 1862, the first Medical School on campus in 1872, the Redpath Museum in 1882, the Macdonald Physics Building, the Redpath Library, and the Macdonald-Workman Engineering Building, all in 1893 were the major external evidences of the great intellectual advances that had been made. Equally, the admission of women students in 1884 marked the immense social developments in Montreal society. An early contribution to elementary teaching through the work of the McGill Nornal School was followed by the institution of examinations for a far-flung network of affiliated secondary schools and by the encouragement and supervision of local colleges. By the time Dawson retired in 1893 McGill's influence was already reaching across the new Dominion of Canada, and the university was ready to make the transition into the twentieth century.
