Normand Boisvert: “La Loi Thornton a eu pour résultat d’encourager un sentiment de honte parmi de nombreux francophones. Certains ont perdu la langue parce qu’ils ne la voulaient plus. Ils se sont assimilés pour ne pas se démarquer des autres.”

La mission de l’Académie de hockey de Starbuck

4 minute read Saturday, Jan. 16, 2016

Lorsqu’ils auront terminé leurs quatre ans à l’Académie de hockey de Starbuck, Luca Fais, Owen Pickering et Joel Purdom auront cumulé plus de 400 heures de perfectionnement technique — sans compter les heures passées à jouer pour leurs équipes respectives. Portrait de trois jeunes athlètes “très sérieux.”

Établie en 1999, l’Académie de hockey de Starbuck est la première école manitobaine à obtenir une certification de Hockey Canada. Depuis, sa réputation parmi les filles et les garçons de la 5e à la 8e années n’a cessé de croître. En 1999, 43 jeunes s’étaient inscrits. Aujourd’hui, on compte 80 athlètes privilégiés.

Fais se sait chanceux: “C’est par amour du hockey. Owen Pickering et moi, on habite Saint-Adolphe. On se lève pas mal tôt. Ma mère nous conduit à notre premier autobus qui nous transporte à Winnipeg. Et puis on embarque dans un deuxième autobus avec Joel Purdom, qui habite à Saint-Vital. Ça prend 45 minutes de route pour se rendre à Starbuck.”

Son choix, Pickering le vit ainsi: “Le hockey, c’est sérieux. Je suis défenseur pour les Hawks, équipe pee wee de Saint-Adolphe. J’aimerais un jour jouer pour une équipe de hockey junior de la Ligue de hockey de l’Ouest, qui a des équipes canadiennes et américaines. Après ça, qui sait? Mon but, c’est de jouer à mon plein potentiel. Ici, c’est possible de le faire.”

Ad another thing: sounding the alarm about advertising’s ill effects on society

By Jen Zoratti 6 minute read Tuesday, Oct. 22, 2013

Jean Kilbourne was an adbuster long before there was anything close to resembling Adbusters.

When the acclaimed feminist scholar, author, filmmaker and media literacy pioneer, who speaks Thursday at 7:30 p.m., at the University of Winnipeg's Convocation Hall, began tearing advertisements out of magazines and posting them on her refrigerator back in 1968, she didn't know she would start a movement, let alone a respected field of study.

At the time, she just wanted to open people's eyes. She assembled the ads she collected into a slideshow presentation that she took to college campuses in the 1970s. She had one goal: tell anyone who would listen about the damaging effect ads were having on women.

"I was the first person to start talking about the image of women in advertising," Kilbourne, 70, recalls. "(The ads) were outrageous and no one was paying attention to them."
