Item Open Access Audio: Senate Reform: Is It Necessary And Can It Be Done?(2014-03-13) Barnhart, GordonSenate reform has been much debated; it has even become an oxymoron. It is a bit like the weather – everyone talks about it but no one does anything about it. Dr. Barnhart will discuss the topic of Senate reform drawing on his extensive research of the subject and his previous experience serving as Clerk of the Senate. He will outline the many past attempts at reform, and make suggestions for possible future action.Item Open Access Poster: Citizenship, Governance and Duty(Faculty of Arts, 2008)Item Open Access Poster: Implementing Self Determination: A leader's vision(Faculty of Arts, 2009)Item Open Access Poster: Islam, Gender and the Future of Multicultural Citizenship(Faculty of Arts, 2011)Item Open Access Item Open Access Poster: One Law for All: Understanding Canada's indigenous constitution(Faculty of Arts, 2012)Item Open Access Poster: Quality Care for Patients, Above All(Faculty of Arts, 2010)Item Open Access Poster: Ronald Bloore and the Art of Provocation(Faculty of Arts, 2016)Item Open Access Poster: Senate Reform Is It Necessary And Can It Be Done?(Faculty of Arts, 2014-03-13) Unknown ArtistItem Open Access Item Open Access Transcript: Islam, Gender and the Future of Multi-cultural Citizenship(Faculty of Arts, 2011-03-04) Fadel, MohammadCanada has a well-deserved reputation as a multicultural society. This reputation, moreover, is not just a self-serving Canadian myth: the 2006 Census discloses some remarkable statistics about the ethnic composition of Canada. According to the 2006 Census, Canadians reported belonging to more than 200 ethnicities as compared to the 25 ethnicities they reported in the 1901 Census. The proportion of Canadians belonging to visible minorities was 16%, or approximately 5 million (out of a total population of 34 million), as compared to 13%, or slightly less than 4 million, in 2001. That translates into a five-year growth among visible minorities of 27% compared to 5% growth for the rest of the Canadian population.Item Open Access Video: Librarians Unplugged: How and why librarians are speaking out about crucial social issues(Faculty of Arts, 2013-03-18) Samek, ToniOn the heels of Canada’s Freedom to Read Week (February 24 to March 2), Professor and 3M National Teaching Fellow Toni Samek will share aspects of her scholarship in librarianship and human rights. Life, liberty and the law come into sharp focus as Toni provides compelling contemporary examples of how and why librarians are speaking up about addressing the critical problems of society. From the CBC Radio Canada Human Library partnership to the Canadian Library Association’s participation in copyright reform in the digital age, there’s a wave of library noisemaking hitting the airwaves. Toni helps us tune in and listen to that new library sound.Item Open Access Video: Ronald Bloore and the Art of Provocation(Faculty of Arts, 2016-03-31) Long, TimothyAs Director of the MacKenzie Art Gallery from 1958 to 1966, Ronald Bloore stirred controversy at every turn. Whether inventing a fictional artist, including his own work in shows he curated, or declaring art of the Renaissance to be misguided, Bloore upset expectations and sparked debate. In the process he put Regina's fledgling art scene on the map nationally and internationally, articulating a defiantly indigenous vision of modern art.Item Open Access Video: The Fierce Urgency of Now: Global Education as a Gateway to Creating Critically Informed, Motivated and Globally Competent Citizens(Faculty of Arts, 2015-03-26) O'Sullivan, MichaelIn this, the era of globalization, in which the borders of the nationstate are ever more porous, the daunting challenges that face humanity are increasingly global in scope and therefore require global solutions. This has significant implications for the professional practice of K to 12 teachers, teacher-educators, and curriculum developers. Students need to be prepared to successfully confront the complex 21st century challenges that they will soon inherit as young adults.
