The Franco-Americans of New England
Between 1840 and 1930, approximately 900,000 people left Quebec for the United States and settled in French-Canadian colonies in New England's industrial cities. Yves Roby draws from first-person accounts to explore the conversion of these immigrants and their descendants from French-Canadian to Franco-American. The first generation of immigrants saw themselves as French Canadians who had relocated to the United States. They were not involved with American society and instead sought to recreate their lost homeland. The Franco-Americans of New England reveals that their children, however, did not see a need to create a distinct society. Although they maintained aspects of their language, religion, and customs, they felt no loyalty to Canada and identified themselves as Franco-American. Roby's analysis raises insightful questions about not only Franco-Americans but also the integration of ethno-cultural groups into Canadian society and the future of North American Francophonies.
Wade's Story
Wade's Story is true. I am sharing it for the glory of GOD and so that others who are struggling with trials and suffering in their lives will be comforted and encouraged. The timeline is primarily 1996 to 2001, during which our family, church, friends, and community came together in love and support for our son, Wade Altman. At only nine years of age, during a normal, rambunctious, and mischievous childhood, Wade began having symptoms. Our shock at this turned into an aggressive search for treatment and a need to reach GOD for healing. My precious wife, Lisa, already a prayer warrior, turned the volume on high! As for me, I returned to JESUS on my face before HIM at the altar. There was now...
A Nation Beyond Borders
Recipient of the 2005 Governor General's Literary Award in non-fiction, Quand la nation débordait les frontières is considered the most comprehensive analysis of Lionel Groulx's work and vision as an intellectual leader of a nationalist school that extended well beyond the borders of Québec. For over five decades, historians and intellectuals have defined the nationalist discourse primarily in territorial terms. In this regard, Groulx has been portrayed—more often than not—as the architect of Québecois nationalism. Translated by Ferdinanda Van Gennip, A Nation Beyond Borders will continue to spark debate on Groulx's description of the parameters of the French-Canadian nation. Highlighting the often neglected role of French-Canadian minorities in his thought, this book presents the Canon as an uncompromising advocate of solidarity between all French-Canadian communities.
