The Honourable John Norquay

Autor: Gerald Friesen

Número de Páginas: 552

The life and times of the Premier from Red River John Norquay, orphan and prodigy, was a leader among the Scots Cree peoples of western Canada. Born in the Red River Settlement, he farmed, hunted, traded, and taught school before becoming a legislator, cabinet minister, and, from 1878 to 1887, premier of Manitoba. Once described as Louis Riel’s alter ego, he skirmished with prime minister John A. Macdonald, clashed with railway baron George Stephen, and endured racist taunts while championing the interests of the Prairie West in battles with investment bankers, Ottawa politicians, and the CPR. His contributions to the development of Canada’s federal system and his dealings with issues of race and racism deserve attention today. Recounted here by Canadian historian Gerald Friesen, Norquay’s life story ignites contemporary conversations around the nature of empire and Canada’s own imperial past. Drawing extensively on recently opened letters and financial papers that offer new insights into his business, family, and political life, Friesen reveals Norquay to be a thoughtful statesman and generous patriarch. This masterful biography of the Premier from Red River sheds welcome ...

Global Witness Through Weakness

Autor: Joseph M. Lear Sr.

Número de Páginas: 194

The apostle Paul is recognized as the paramount example of what it means to be a Christian missionary committed to the cause of Christ. In his Second Epistle to the Corinthians, we read of the struggles he endured in establishing the church in Corinth. These struggles gave rise to his expose of his own paradoxical life and ministry, based on his firm conviction that strength only comes through weakness. Paul, in his confessed weakness, poured out his life as a participant in the sufferings and death of the Savior. He believed that only in such participation would resurrection grace and power be released for the salvation of lost humanity. This letter is a powerful blueprint for missionary training institutes and sending agencies as they prepare, select, and send missionaries to the four corners of the earth.

Histoire du Manitoba français (tome 2) : Le temps des outrages

Autor: Jacqueline Blay

Número de Páginas: 435

Récipiendaire du Prix Champlain 2014 Le temps des outrages, tome 2 – Histoire du Manitoba français, retrace l’époque se situant entre 1870 et 1916, au Manitoba français. En 1870, il n’y a aucun précédent pour guider les pas des uns et des autres, entre les forces en présence. Les questions touchant l’amnistie et les terres ancestrales sont déterminantes pour le peuple Métis. Victime de stratagèmes douteux, Louis Riel, leur chef historique, voit ses ambitions politiques contrecarrées et il perd la vie. En 1890, les droits scolaires et linguistiques garantis dans la Loi du Manitoba (1870), s’envolent comme des fétus de paille. En 1916, le Vatican ampute le diocèse de Saint-Boniface, au profit de la majorité catholique anglophone. Quarante-six ans après son adhésion au Canada, le Manitoba français est dépouillé de l’héritage de ses fondateurs laïcs et religieux, Louis Riel et Mgr Norbert Provencher. Dans cet ouvrage, l’historienne Jacqueline Blay poursuit son travail de déchiffrage minutieux et documente l’évolution et les rapports des communautés métisse, francophone et anglophone, la position du Québec et du Canada dans ces dossiers qui...

Le Messianisme de Louis Riel, 1844-1885

Autor: Gilles Martel

Número de Páginas: 505

Le premier mai 1876 Louis Riel écrivait à Mgr Courget: "Le Saint-Espirt m'a dit: Tu es le Messie de Gloire humaine que la Maison de Jacob s'attendait à trouver dans le Verbe incarné". A la suite de quel cheminement psychologique et sous la pression de quels facteurs sociaux Louis Riel en arriva-t-il à cette convition? Quelle fut l'évolution de cette idéologie messianique et millénariste tout ou long de sa vie? Enfin quel rôle joua cette idéologie dans ses actions politiques entre 1869 et 1885? Utilisant abondamment des sources manuscrites souvent inédites, la présent analyse de sociologie historique entend situer la personne de Riel dans l'historie collective du peuple métis. La description circonstanciée des bouleversements socioéconomiques du peuple métis et l'analyse détaillée des traumatismes psychologiques de Louis Riel se conjuguent pour éclairer d'un jour nouveau cette page controversée de l'histoire canadienne.

Reproductive Processes and Contraception

Autor: Kenneth W. Mckerns

Número de Páginas: 719

This monograph represents the eighth sponsored by the International Society for Biochemical Endocrinology. The topics should be of interest to basic research scientists, medical practitioners, and students of repro ductive biology. It complements our monograph published in 1979 on Structure and Function of the Gonadotropins. The monograph is organized in ten topic areas relative to the general theme of reproduction and contraception. There are several chapters in each area. Obviously, all aspects of each area could not be covered. An attempt was made to seek interesting basic research ideas and concepts that might in the future be applicable to fertility regulation. The topics are: interactions in gonadotropin regulation; GnRH analogues as contra ceptive agents; receptors in cellular localization of hormones; uterine and mammary receptors; germ-cell regulation and secretory proteins; control mechanisms and metabolic regulations; hCG peptides and anti sera as antifertility agents; ieutinization, oocyte maturation, and early pregnancy; steroids and cell growth; and finally, prostaglandins and cell function. The studies encompass many disciplines and techniques in anatomy,...

Three Rivers

Autor: Dan Lee

Número de Páginas: 294

Kentucky is richly blessed with rivers. This book tells the stories of three of the most beautiful and historic: the Rolling Fork, the Nolin, and the Rough. Each is an unpredictable force of nature flowing through a land that varies from wide, sunny meadows to dark, rock-bound hollows. Chapters describe the people who lived in the river valleys, including pioneers, frontier preachers, a future president, cave explorers, Confederate and Union soldiers, desperate killers, hardscrabble farmers, and inspired visionaries. Sometimes they were wasteful and violent and vain; at other times they were inventive and graceful and kind. Their descendants realized that survival had come to mean something new: living in harmony with the land and the rivers.
