By Kerry Auriat Recently, the Sun's sister newspaper, the Winnipeg Free Press, ran a series of articles about the catastrophic situation in Manitoba's child welfare system. Previous studies of Manitoba's child welfare system advocated this idea in order to ensure First Nations children did not lose their cultural identity.

This study investigates tattoo removal as a means of identity negotiation using Brewer's (1991) optimal distinctiveness theory as the conceptual foundation. Twenty-two informants who ranged in age from 19 to 43 participated in in-depth interviews telling their stories of tattoo acquisition and removal. Findings unpack the relationship between consumption, disposition, and the different aspects of the self-concept. Informants who felt overly individuated (or assimilated) in a frequently activated social identity group because of tattoo acquisition, compensated for this conflict by enhancing feelings of affiliation (or differentiation) in another frequently activated social identity via tattoo removal. This study extends previous research on the role of consumption in shaping the maintena...

Mieville, England's enfant terrible of urban SF/fantasy (King Rat, Perdido Street Station), is not so casually slotted. For he's crafted a true genre-bending parable that is at once mythical, deeply allegorical, deliciously subversive -- and a decent cop procedural to boot. Warning: All fiction requires a suspension of disbelief. It's the quid pro quo of the art form, and SF/fantasy is its poster child. Moreover, Mieville is merciless in this regard. If you're constantly trying to figure out how such an implausible scenario might actually work, it's fatally distracting. [Adrian McKinty]'s wayward cop, Mercado, is a keeper. If he's smart, he'll warp in from Australia again and set a reprise for her in post-Fidel Cuba.

We love the area because we can walk wherever we want to go," says Henry Kuhl, a farmer who, with his wife, Jocelyn, bought a loft in the district two years ago when it came time to turn their potato and asparagus operation near Portage la Prairie over to their children. "We're coming from a rural area where we had to drive for absolutely everything." It's a joy, he says, to have sports and cultural amenities right at the doorstep. "I was attracted by the spaces. They're large and have a lot of light," says artist Christian Worthington, who's lived in the area for three years. "And there's romance to some of the buildings." Living and working in the area is "like living in a small town in the middle of a city." The community is currently suffering an identity crisis, he says, with so...
Canadian policy makers have repeatedly emphasized improving relations with Brazil as a strategic objective in the Americas. Given past failures to cooperate, this objective may be difficult to realize. We argue that one of the reasons for this unrealized relationship between Canada and Brazil within hemispheric institutions is different national approaches to the role and purpose of multilateralism. This argument is advanced through an analysis of national interpretations of each country's engagement with multilateralism, drawing on the local literatures. The paper concludes with a discussion of the prospects and limits of future multilateral cooperation between the two countries, drawing on examples from the Inter-American System.

With more than 27,000 Aboriginal children currently in provincial care, solving the issues surrounding Aboriginal adoptions has never been more important. These issues include: the inequality of funding between the First Nations Child Welfare agencies and provincial agencies (which has instigated a Canadian Human Rights Complaint by the Assembly of First Nations and the First Nations Child and Family Caring Society of Canada), the denial of Aboriginal Identity from Aboriginal adoptees, and the lack of recognition of Aboriginal custom adoptions. This paper focuses on these issues, discusses Supreme Court jurisprudence, as well as how Aboriginal adoptions are currently being dealt with in the provinces of Saskatchewan and British Columbia.
