Known for his love for family and as a truly decent human being, Wayne Gretzky is revealed as more than a sports legend in this easy-to-read biography

Meet Mary Ann Shadd: anti-slavery activist, newspaper publisher, and social justice pioneer!The award-winning Scholastic Canada Biography series highlights the lives…

of remarkable Canadians whose achievements have inspired and changed the lives of those who followed.Mary Ann Shadd was born free in 1823 in Delaware. Her parents were abolitionists, and their home was a station on the Underground Railroad. Her family moved to Canada in 1851 after the Fugitive Slave Act was enacted, and as a young woman, Shadd became a trailblazer in every realm she touched — opening a desegregated school in Chatham, Ontario; becoming the first Black female newspaper publisher in North America with the Provincial Freeman; becoming a suffrage activist; and at the age of 60 earning a law degree to become one of the first Black women to practice law!Mary Ann was truly remarkable, for her time or any other, unafraid to speak up and fight for equal rights — for Black people, for women and for everybody.Written by award-winning author Elizabeth MacLeod, this portrait of Mary Ann Shadd couples simple yet compelling writing with comic-flavoured illustrations by Mike Deas that help bring her fascinating story to life!

Géographies du pays proche: poète et citoyen dans un Québec pluriel (Collection Papiers collés)

By Pierre Nepveu. 2022

Braille (Contracted), Electronic braille (Contracted)
Canadian travel and geography
Human-transcribed braille

Mon amour du Québec n'est pas nationaliste si l'on entend par là que je placerais la nation au-dessus de tout,…

que je serais incapable de reconnaître ses tares, au passé comme au présent, ou encore que je serais obsédé par sa différence, sa distinction, sa spécificité. Reconnaître que le Québec est un cas unique dans l'histoire des Amériques, que sa situation linguistique fortement minoritaire au Canada et à plus forte raison sur le continent exige des politiques et motive un souci constant, être conscient des particularités de notre parcours historique – cela ne signifie aucunement que l'on doive se cantonner dans un provincialisme défensif et régressif qui en vient à considérer comme suspecte, voire péjorative, l'idée même d'un Québec ouvert, pluraliste, inclusif. À mes yeux, telle est pourtant l'idée de la nation qui colle le plus à sa réalité présente, et la seule apte à éviter sa stagnation et sa folklorisation

plus récemment, Saint-Henri, se sont mis à accueillir des ménages de plus en plus aisés. Qu'advient-il des populations originelles ? Elles sont évincées, de manière directe, notamment avec les « rénovictions », ou indirecte, parce qu'elles ne peuvent pas, par exemple, se permettre de fréquenter les nouveaux commerces alors que les anciens ferment les uns après les autres. Le privilège de siroter un latté à l'avoine sur une terrasse à deux pas de son plex ou de sa shoebox n'est pas donné à tout le monde…
