These interdisciplinary essays draw on feminist, postcolonial, and critical theory in a wide-ranging discussion that encompasses both high and popular forms of culture, the deliberation of policy and its execution, and social movements as well as individual authors and texts. The contributors, who come from many fields, establish connections among discourses of race, gender, and nation-building that have conditioned the formation of Canada for more than one hundred years. They analyze ways in which these elements have participated in and contributed to exclusionary practices and policies, such as marginalization of women and racialized groups. Together, their essays paint a picture of a nation that privileges whiteness, masculinity, and Christianity. This book gathers many insights on the construction of Canada, hitherto scattered in the literature. It will be of interest to feminist scholars and others concerned with issues of race and gender. At times provocative, Painting the Maple illuminates the challenges that lie ahead for all Canadians who aspire to create a better future in a reimagined nation. 606 $aWomen$zCanada 606 $aSex discrimination against women$zCanada 606 $aMarginality, Social$zCanada 607 $aCanada$xSocial conditions$y1991- 607 $aCanada$xRace relations 615 0$aWomen 615 0$aSex discrimination against women 615 0$aMarginality, Social 676 $a306/.0971 701 $aStrong-Boag$b Veronica Jane$0275474 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910780513103321 996 $aPainting the maple$93760139 997 $aUNINA
