Reflections on Settler Colonialism in Canada Cole Harris

The Times and Life of Mary Ellen Spear Smith Veronica Strong-Boag UBC PRESS

UBC PRESS

In this beau�fully cra�ed and wri�en volume, Canada’s preeminent historical geographer traces how Canada’s geographical limita�ons have shaped the nature of its se�ler socie�es – from first contacts, to dispossession, to our current age of reconcilia�on.

This authorita�ve biography of Mary Ellen Smith (1863–1933) – Bri�sh Columbia’s first female MLA, the Bri�sh Empire’s first female cabinet minister, and a BC suffragist – recovers from obscurity an audacious but imperfect champion in the struggle for greater democracy in early twen�eth-century Canada.

UBC PRESS

Many of Canada’s most famous suffragists lived and campaigned in the Prairie provinces, which led the way in gran�ng women the right to vote and hold office. In Ours by Every Law of Right and Jus�ce, Sarah Carter challenges the myth that grateful male legislators simply handed women the vote when it was asked for.

Globaliza�on and migra�on are crea�ng disconnected socie�es in modern urban ci�es, and urban communi�es are at risk of becoming fragmented. Draws on a five-year study to document and contextualize an an�dote: the neighbourhood house movement. Excludes SE Asia, Indian sc & ANZ

Indian and Pakistani Transnational Households in Canada Tania Das Gupta
