Description

Canada: Past, Present and Future Perspectives begins with an attempt to determine to what degree leadership in Quebec is permeated by mythic primordial imagery which informed not only the 19th-century ideologie de la survivance but also Lionel Groulx's vision of French Canada, the Revolution tranquille, and contemporary Quebecois souverainisme.

The authors examine recent literature on the environmental and social networks that surround animal/human dynamics, and some recent methodologies for the study of these dynamics.

Additionally, they review the concept of ecosystem services, their valuation and sources of uncertainty.

In 2008 the governors of California, Oregon and Washington formed the Pacific Coast Collaborative, which the province of British Columbia also joined, with the purpose of taking a regional approach to issues such as climate change, environmental protection, and trade. Because the plan relies on public support and participation to achieve the goals of reducing carbon emissions to mitigate climate change, an analysis of public beliefs about climate change is presented.

The authors describe and analyze the evolution of Quebec's higher education policies from the Parent Reform to the present day.

While the structure of higher education introduced between 1960 and 1970 remains almost unchanged to this day, the public policies defining and framing its role have evolved.

The closing chapter centers on how, focusing on the destruction of landscape for the construction of an airport, Nepveu frames Mirabel Airport as a retelling of New France's past discovery in order to lay the groundwork for a discussion of Quebecois future identity.
