    Extractions: Home Ethnic Groups -Remittance Man -Italian ... Guest Book Ethnic Groups The story we are about to tell is disturbing on many fronts. It happened only one hundred years ago, and it happened in the Kootenay region of British Columbia. This was a land of promise, plenty and prejudice. The major immigrant players in this story ( Chinese Italians and British Remittance Men ) have moved on to be part of mainstream Canadian society. We feel that by looking at these subjects through the lens of a hundred years we can shed light on these important topics in the modern day and take a step toward effective change. One of the most disturbing facts about these materials is that, although a hundred years may have passed, the basis of prejudice and intolerance has not changed. The hatred for races different from the norm has simply shifted to a new set of immigrants. With this site we hope to facilitate change in the basic attitudes Canadians hold toward those different from themselves and to build bridges to a more positive future for all. Such intolerance toward ethnic groups during the period under study, while shocking, was not unique to the Kootenays. Prejudice and discrimination were common to the majority of members of Victorian society. While the Kootenays were neither worse nor better than any other region in B.C., we hope that by looking at the stories and pictures featured here, you might take a look at wherever you live with a more critical eye.

    Extractions: Ethnic Folklore I. The meaning of “Ethnic Group” Members of an ethnic group are those who share and identify with a historically derived cultural heritage or traditions. Those traditions may include both explicit and explicit patterns of behaviours (folk customs), folk literature, and material culture. Membership in an ethnic group can also be acquired by descent. It should be noted that an ethnic group is often a part of a lager society consisting of various ethnic groups - rather than being independent and self-sufficient. This is generally the case even in a society or a country where outsiders think is made up of one ethnic group. “Ethnic identity” refers to the intellectual and emotional sense that a person has of his/her relationship to the behaviours, ideas, and values of a particular ethnic group. Ethnicity is any customary behaviour, verbal expression and material culture that are inspired by, or are based on this sense of “ethnic identity.” It should be noted that the existence of a ethnic group and the sense of ethnic identity are situational (i.e. may vary with situation and circumstance) There are three main social forces that lead to the creation or recognition of ethnic groups: nationalism, colonialism, and immigration. Colonialism means one nation being ruled and exploited by another. Immigration means coming to one nation from another. Nationalism is often born from anti-colonial feelings. These factors are to some extent interrelated.

    http://www.thompsonbooks.com/55077108.html
    
    Extractions: ELECTRONIC VERSION: This book may be ordered in Adobe Acrobat PDF format. Please contact the publisher for details. D uring the 1990s, a new surge of poverty struck the western industrial nations, including Canada. Slower economic growth both at national and international levels, globalization and the erosion of the welfare state contributed to this poverty surge. Moreover, there is a widespread perception that this poverty has become increasingly concentrated in certain neighbourhoods, known as "ghetto," "inner city," "poverty zone," etc., and that such neighbourhoods have become mostly the habitats of minority groups ö racial minorities in some societies, immigrant groups in others. This path-breaking book examines the relationship between poverty and ethnicity in Canada. The authors provide a comprehensive picture of Canadian cities with regard to the concentration of poverty and, in particular, examine whether there is an ethnic dimension associated with it. They find a disturbing trend towards rising poverty levels during the 1990s, with poverty tending to be concentrated in certain neighbourhoods. Also, certain ethnic groups, especially visible minorities and those consisting mostly of recent immigrants, seem to be doubly disadvantaged, suffering not only from a general poverty due to economic factors but also factors related to their immigration status, such as limited knowledge of the official languages and the mismatch of their skills and the demands of the labour market.

Várdy's Hungarians of the New World by Nándor Dreisziger Historians of the twenty second century will probably regard the twentieth century as the "golden age" of the Hungarian community in the United States. Throughout the entire time-span of hundred years there had been a substantial Hungarian demographic and cultural presence in the land Magyars call "Amerika." It is quite appropriate that this century ended with the publication of a major work of synthesis on the history of the USA's Hungarian ethnic group. This synthesis is Béla Várdy's Magyarok az Újvilágban: Az észak-amerikai magyarság rendhagyó története [Hungarians in the New World: An eclectic history of the Hungarians of North America] (Budapest: A Magyar Nyelv és Kultúra Nemzetközi Társasága, 2000). The book is a massive volume written more for the lay reader than the academic researcher. Its title is something of a misnomer C it is what might be called a "publisher's title" C although the subtitle comes closer to the book's subject, the history of the Hungarian ethnic group of the United States.

The report shows that Canadians have access to a variety of ethnic services that are widely carried across the country in both analogue and digital form. In creating this snapshot of the industry during 2001, the Commission studied a sample of 40 different-sized markets across the country. Based on 1996 data from Statistics Canada, sample markets were generally chosen for the study if they contained at least one ethnic group which represented 5 per cent or more of the community. An ethnic group is defined as any culturally or racially distinct group other than those groups comprised of respondents who identified themselves with Statistics Canada in 1996 to be of French, British, Canadian, or Aboriginal Canadian origin. Population determined each market size. Markets that had a population of 300,000 or more were considered large, those with a population ranging between 299,999 and 100,000 were considered medium and those with a population of less than 100,000 were considered small.

Richard, Madeline A. Vancouver: UBC Press, 1991. Chapter Two: The Relationship between Intermarriage and Assimilation:Patterns, Correlates, and Determinants The convergence hypothesis of classical immigration theory has been central to many studies of assimilation (Lieverson 1963). Its basic premise is that the process of individual adaptation leads to the convergence of the individual and group characteristics with those of the host society over time. The extent of assimilation is normally assessed in terms of the dissimilarity between the distribution of certain characteristics of the immigrant groups and the dominant cultural group. The processes of acculturation, that is, cultural or behavioural assimilation and integration that lead to convergence, are numerous and complex, operating within generations as well as across successive generations. A form of social interaction theory is enlisted in this literature to predict the nature of change between the groups. The expectation is simply that the smaller immigrant groups of subordinate status will experience the greatest change, and in the process can expect to become more like the culturally dominant group over successive generations. Social interaction theory also reminds us that assimilation is a two-way street in that the dominant group will in turn be affected by its minority groups, but not with the same force (LaPiere and Farnsworth 1942; Gordon 1964:62).

    Extractions: anada is often described as a multicultural nation. But what does that mean? Simply stated, it means that Canadians are not of any one cultural background, race or heritage. Instead, Canadians today reflect a vast diversity of cultural heritages and racial groups. This multicultural diversity is a result of centuries of immigration. All Canadians, including the Native People, can trace their origins to an immigrant past. This does not mean that the majority of Canadians are immigrants. Far from it. Only about 16% of today's Canadian citizens were born outside Canada. Nor does this mean that anyone who wants to immigrate to Canada may do so. Immigration to Canada is a privilege, not a right. Canada remains selective about who may enter and, equally important, who may not. Over the years, attitudes toward immigration and the development of immigration policies have evolved, reflecting economic, political and social issues in our country. Recently, the federal government has announced changes that will both decrease the number of immigrants allowed into Canada and make it more difficult for people in Canada, Canadian born and immigrants alike, to bring family to Canada from abroad. Immigration: The Early Years mmigration has played and continues to play a key role in shaping the character of Canadian society. Although only a minority of Canadians have first-hand experience of immigration, all Canadians have a parent, grandparent or more distant relative who came to Canada as a stranger to a strange land. Because all Canadians share an immigrant past, there would be no Canada without immigration.

Prior to Martin, a token ethnic here or there was found in every government. Usually they were in minor portfolios like multiculturalism, seen as peripheral to the politics of the nation. It was 1957 when Diefenbaker appointed Michael Starr, the first Ukrainian cabinet minister, minister of labour. Diefenbaker was a pioneer in this area having himself been depicted as a foreigner in the wild, wild Saskatchewan politics of racism in the late 1920s and '30s. In 1958, Diefenbaker swept over 200 seats but the ethnic contingent he brought with him was very small. Lester Pearson didn't boast of ethnic power in his cabinet because there was none. In the United States the Jewish community was major in the 1930s election of Herbert Lehman as governor of New York and then as a senator. In Canada the highly qualified Jewish politician, David Croll, was kept out of St. Laurent's government because of his Jewishness and he had to settle for being the first Jewish senator. Trudeau had Barney Danson as minister of defence and Stanley Haidasz as multiculturalism minister and that was as far as ethnic power went with him.

    Extractions: Toronto Press Bureau TORONTO - Though Ukrainians are one of the largest and most organized ethnic groups in Canada, they have had difficulty in sustaining their influence on the country's society as whole, because much of their activity is the "expressive" rather than "instrumental" mode. This analysis was suggested by Prof. Wsevolod Isajiw, the Robert F. Harney Professor of Ethnic, Immigration and Pluralism Studies at the University of Toronto, in a lecture at the St. Vladimir Institute on March 25, part of the institute's "Ukrainian 102" series. In his lecture, titled "The Meaning of Being Ukrainian Canadian: Ukrainian Ethnicity in Canada," Prof. Isajiw explained that the "expressive" mode of an ethnic identity concentrates on the preservation and promotion of a given culture, particularly through social contacts within an ethnic group, while the "instrumental" mode prompts individuals to organize in order to achieve political and economic goals, to claim certain rights and promote policies. The Toronto-based sociology professor said organizations such as the Ukrainian Canadian Congress and the Ukrainian World Congress should function in the instrumental mode, but nonetheless lean toward the expressive, holding conventions, ceremonies on anniversaries, presenting awards for community service and the like.
