Power Struggles: Hydro Development and First Nations in Manitoba and Quebec examines the evolution of new agreements between First Nations and Inuit and the hydro corporations in Quebec and Manitoba, including the Wuskwatim Dam Project, Paix des Braves, and the Great Whale Project. In the 1970s, both provinces signed so-called “modern treaties” with First Nations for the development of large hydro projects in Aboriginal territories. In recent times, however, the two provinces have diverged in their implementation, and public opinion of these agreements has ranged from celebratory to outrage. Power Struggles brings together perspectives on these issues from both scholars and activists. In debating the relative merits and limits of these agreements, they raise a crucial question: Is Canada on the eve of a new relationship with First Nations, or do the same colonial attitudes that have long characterized Canadian-Aboriginal relations still prevail?
Le déséquilibre fiscal, le financement des soins de la santé et la lutte au déficit sont non seulement des questions qui animent les débats à propos du rôle de l'Etat dans la société, mais ces questions mettent aussi en évidence le rôle de plus en plus important des gouvernements provinciaux au sein de la fédération canadienne. Ce rôle accru s'observe notamment par les politiques budgétaires : alors que le gouvernement fédéral s'est engagé dans une politique de stabilisation de ses dépenses dans la dernière décennie, les dépenses de l'ensemble des gouvernements provinciaux continuent d'augmenter. Cette augmentation n'est toutefois pas constante dans le temps et diffère d'une province à l'autre; comment expliquer cette situation? Pour fournir des éléments de réponse, trois principaux facteurs sont analysés dans cet ouvrage : l'idéologie partisane des gouvernements, leur popularité auprès des électeurs et l'échéance électorale.
These tensions are revealed in the literature that Clarke argues to be - paradoxically - uniquely Canadian and proudly apart from a mainstream national identity."--BOOK JACKET.
Understanding Stepfamilies takes a large step toward achieving integration of the many variables presented in understanding the stepfamily system. The book examines the dynamics and resources within these complex family systems. It helps clinicians and researchers understand the underlying structural patterns and dynamics of stepfamilies, promoting more successful, positive treatment outcomes. Chapters in Understanding Stepfamilies offer clinicians and researchers an international perspective, including contributions from the U.S., Canada, Israel, and The Netherlands. Readers learn of unique theoretical approaches to understanding stepfamily typologies and behaviors and specific clinical models for assessment and intervention, as well as more empirically-based findings regarding parent-child interactions.
