An
introduction to the new Quebec nationalism and the tricks it plays on federal
leaders
The
opening days
of the 2019 election campaign have been marked, above all, by the attempts of
federal leaders to navigate the new Quebec nationalism and its most
potent expression, a law on secularism. The main proponent of this resurgent
nationalism is the provincial government led by Premier François Legault and
his centre-right party, the Coalition Avenir Québec. And Legault didn't wait
long before giving the federal leaders a taste. The campaign was barely a few
hours old when he demanded they
renounce support for legal challenges to the secularism
law his government passed in June — not just "for the
moment," as Liberal Leader Justin Trudeau said he would, but forever. It
was a warning to steer well clear of a matter he considers to be solely within
his jurisdiction, even though the law has raised constitutional
concerns across the country, not to mention within

A
Montreal police officer who was off-duty when he rammed another man's car in
2015 will not face any discipline, even though a judge has already
ruled officer Roberto Tomarelli was negligent, reckless and used
unwarranted force the night of the incident. In a decision released earlier
this week, the police ethics commission tribunal concluded that it did not
have jurisdiction to make a ruling in the case. The man whose car was rammed,
Jeffery Pokora, has been fighting for years to have Tomarelli face discipline.
Pokora told CBC in an interview Wednesday he couldn't believe it when he heard
about the decision. "I was completely dumbfounded. It felt like a
big slap in the face," Pokora said. "Where's the justice? Where's
the fairness in that? The last six years of my life have been extremely
difficult, with a lot of therapy. Meanwhile he's still been on the job,
he's still collecting a paycheque, and probably hasn't learned anything,"
he continued. The

Long,
lazy summer days, car trips to visit grandma, campfires (with s'mores of
course!) - all the perfect places to introduce storytelling to your children!
I invite you to consider the below article by professional author, storyteller
and father, Jim Weiss, "
erin@smithpublicity.com
By Jim Weiss
Stories are spectacularly successful learning tools. Many studies show that
children whose parents tell and/or read stories to them from an early age turn
out to be better readers and students later on.
Furthermore, you are twenty times more likely to remember information if you
learn it in a story than if you learn it simply as data to memorize. In part,
the more stories we encounter, the more effectively our brains learn to work
within the structure that most stories follow. We not only absorb the
stories' contents, but at the same time, our brains get used to organizing
what we learn into a usable form. We learn how to learn through stories.
Other brain researchers have found that different parts of the brain kick in
when we encounter a story that comes with a visual image, such as on a TV or
computer screen, versus when we encounter a story for which we fill in the
visuals with our imaginations, as when we read alone, are read to, or listen
to an audio. These different parts of the brain link with different
forms of creativity, visualization and imagination. They even help us
build the ability to empathize with other people by "visualizing"
ourselves inside characters. We must "exercise" these
different parts of the brain in order to acquire these skills, so introduce
stories to a child through a mix of technologies.
As a professional author and storyteller, a father, and the husband of an
award-winning schoolteacher and counselor, I can attest firsthand that one of
the most effective and most engaging ways to teach and to learn is through
stories. Here are a few tips I want to share to help you integrate
storytelling into your child's daily routine:
1. Start with picture books when your child is very young.
2. Introduce stories of historical or fictional people who do what they love.
There are endless resources: books and web sites that tell stories of famous
artists, composers, engineers, athletes, scientists, etc. You never know which
one will resonate with your child and open up a lifetime passion, so offer a
variety. I've had many people tell me "I'm a
scientist/artist/author now because I listened to your recording about
scientists, etc."
3. In addition to telling stories to your child, try to tell with her or him.
First, tell an old favorite together. It gives the child a sense of mastery,
particularly if every so often you ask, "What did she do then?"
Next, try creating a new version by asking, "What if Cinderella hadn't
dropped the glass slipper? Can we think of another way she and the prince
might have found one another?" If you reach a dead-end, go back to an
earlier moment of decision in the story, hae the character make a different
choice, and go on from there.
4. Another form of storytelling is family stories. Sharing incidents from your
life, or those of your ancestors, gives the message to your child that s/he is
important enough to share in this family history, and imbues your child with a
sense of her/his own roots and identity.
5. Always consider to whom you are telling the story, and think of yourself as
"translating" the intent of the story onto a level this person can
understand. You can tell a story differently at different
developmental stages. Think about what you most want the child to
remember. Start simply with what you know, and tell it in your own
words. If you make a mistake say, "I forgot to tell you
that..." and go on; kids find that endearing. Another way to handle
having left out a part is to say, "Now what Aunt Joan didn't know yet was
that Uncle Bill had already bought the tickets." This presents the
information you forgot as a dramatic element of the tale. Storytelling
reinforces reading, too, and adds a rich oral language element, but it
demonstrates something additional.
6. One powerfully positive element of storytelling is that it fosters a strong
bond between parent and child. Through our stories, and the manner
in which we choose to tell them, families and entire societies pass on what
matters most to them. Children come to recognize that you are sharing
your true self, not through a lecture but through a story. Your child
may not retain into adulthood every single detail you taught him/her, but
always will remember that, "Mom/Dad loved me enough to share what s/he
thought really mattered the most."
If you are fortunate, there will come a day when you see your own child, now
grown up, carry on this story tradition with his/her child. It all
starts and ends with love -- and a good story.
