LUCIANO PRADAL E LE TOPOLINO DI OTTAWA
2008-04-22 00:01:00 Gli italiani sono sparsi per tutto il Canada. Anche se i visitatori occasionali qualche volta li snobbano, vale la pena approfondire la loro conoscenza in quanto può aprire strade diverse e facilmente comprensibili. Tra costoro emerge Luciano Pradal, che vive ad Ottawa dove lo si può facilmente incontrare durante le varie escursioni organizzate da Hotelplan. Luciano conosce tutti gli angoli della città , soprattutto quelli che sono riservati ai curiosi dopo il giro turistico d’obbligo. Quelli che considerano Ottawa una città di rispetto e non soltanto la capitale di comodo del Canada. E se qualcuno desideroso di sposarsi ad Ottawa o semplicemente di stupire la compagna di viaggio si trovasse in difficoltà Luciano diventerebbe allora l’uomo del momento. Come? Nel lontano 1942 il primo Ambasciatore d’Italia in Canada, il conte Feccia di Cossato era talmente amico dell’allora presidente della FIAT, Valletta da farsi mandare una Topolino modello 42, che circola tuttora...

Activists and artists including Sarah Polley in Ottawa today to oppose Bill
2008-04-11 01:31:00 Activists and actors were in Ottawa today to protest the proposed Bill C-10, which would give the government powers to censor films (by killing their tax credits) it deemed "offensive." So far Harper's Conservatives have found the following things offensive and have summarily cut their funding: + Adult literature program for First Nations + Women shelters across the country + First Nations Declaration of Rights at the UN (not only opposed, but tried to influence other states into not signing this historical document that recognizes indigenous peoples' rights across the globe) + Medicinal marajuana + Assistance funding envelopes for museums + Pensions + Arts OK, for more on what the Tories find offensive you can read an earlier post from my blog. From the intervention in Ottawa today, the CBC reported yesterday: Canadian filmmaker Sarah Polley, actress Wendy Crewson and Brian Anthony, CEO of the Directors Guild of Canada, will be among those appearing before the Senate committee on...
Hello from Ottawa: The Canadian Museum of Contemporary Photography
2008-04-07 18:30:00 SeeTheGlobe.com Travel Article :: My schedule in Ottawa this past weekend was extremely compressed, but there was one place I wasn't going to miss: the Canadian Museum of Contemporary Photography. As a person with no formal background, yet a keen interest in the visual arts and photography, I have been wanting to visit this museum for a long time. And my Internet research revealed that the Museum is featuring a very special exhibition right now: two photographic series by Sunil Gupta, an Indian-born Canadian citizen, exploring issues of identity, culture and the immigrant experience. Let me start first with the Museum itself, a rather unique venue in Ottawa with a long history. The Canadian Museum of Contemporary Photography began its life all the way back in World War II as the Still Photography Museum of the National Film Board. Its activities include collecting, publishing and organizing traveling exhibitions and educational programs to foster the efforts and development of Can...

Ottawa Senators choke job would go down in history
2008-04-04 14:55:00 See, all it took was two and a half hours of slapping around the incompetent Toronto Maple Leafs to, perhaps, salvage a year.Ottawa isn't Nottawa after all. It shall remain a place that steals your money, can't support a football team and still looks to be home to a playoff-bound hockey squad.A much-needed win in Toronto last night called off the vultures, historians and possibly even a priest for the Ottawa Senators but life can't be all that comfortable these days. Not with that collar tightening.Now, far be it for me to call these past few months a choke job, but let's just say the Heimlich maneuver may be a required part of the rigorous two a days when training camp opens this coming fall.Surely this isn't something that will be embraced in Bytown, but if the Sens inexplicitly miss the playoffs, this one may go down as the biggest choke job - ever - in pro sports. Period.Hyperbole, you think? Well, ask Jean Van de Velde, Bill Buckner or Greg Norman if these littl...

2008-03-19 20:01:00 OK now the City of Ottawa wants to tax us more. Talk about pissing on the good folks of Ottawa.$50.00 is a bit much. All those poor property owners.

Jack Layton and the NDP weigh in on Bill C-10
2008-03-05 14:46:00 Apologies to all our readers in the US who may not be as interested in this issue, but up here in Canuckland, Bill C-10 and its implications are big news and Art Threat is committed to providing steady updates as they come in. Now a word from the NDP's Jack Layton: Thank you for contacting me about Bill C-10 and the Harper government's plans to censor film in Canada that it finds "offensive". I agree that expanding the criteria used for denying tax credits to artists amounts to censorship and will have devastating consequences for the film and television industry. New Democrats are standing up in Parliament to protect freedom of artistic expression in Canada. NDP House Leader Libby Davies was the first to raise the issue in Question Period and NDP Industry Critic Peggy Nash has made a formal statement in the House of Commons. NDP Culture and Heritage Critic Bill Siksay pushed this matter at the Standing Committee on Canadian Heritage and in related media interviews. I invite you t...

Review: Andy Swan's Ottawa
2008-03-04 14:14:00 I was born and spent my formative years in Ottawa. Not the capital city of Canada but (rather) a small town in central Illinois at the confluence of the Illinois and Fox rivers. Even still, I feel a bit of a connection to Ottawa, Canada despite never having been there. That might have been an unnecessary and long-winded introduction, but I think it ties nicely into my review of Canadian singer-songwriter Andy Swan's latest album Andy Swan's Ottawa. It is a bit country and a bit folk; a little stomping and a lot subdued. At times Andy Swan's Ottawa even recalls a little Jeff Tweedy and old-school Wilco-isms. It is a charming and low-key affair from a great songwriter that no one (yet) seems to know about. His twangy country pop is sentimental and languid but also playful and spirited. Andy Swan certainly surprised me with this heartfelt album that also reminds me of destinations much further south such as Nashville or North Carolina (the Avett Brothers come to mind as does ...
An open letter to Prime Minister Harper and Minister Verner
2008-03-04 06:34:00 An open letter from educator and former Film Studies Association of Canada president Michael Zyrd, regarding Ottawa's proposed censorship bill: Dear Honourable Prime Minister Harper, and Honourable Minister Verner, I write with extreme concern about the proposed Bill C-10, and the ways that it would enable de facto government censorship of film and television. According to a story in the Globe and Mail: ?Bill C-10, currently at third reading in the Senate, contains an amendment to the Income Tax Act which would allow the Minister of Canadian Heritage to deny eligibility to tax credits of productions determined to be contrary to public policy,? Charles Drouin, spokesman for Canadian Heritage said in a statement. ?... Upon royal assent of C-10, the Department of Canadian Heritage plans to update the eligibility requirements for the [Canadian Film or Video Production Tax Credit] program.?
