Canadian society has changed dramatically since 1960. This work captures the scope and range of these changes through a systematic documentation of seventy-eight social trends. The introduction summarizes and locates the major waves of change. The authors then document each trend in relation to eighteen thematic groups that include age, community, women, labour, management, stratification, social relations, the state, mobilizing institutions, social forces, ideologies, households, lifestyle, leisure, education, integration, and attitudes and values. In contrast to many recent works and journalistic reports, Recent Social Trends in Canada concentrates on the trajectory of change rather than on current events. It provides a longitudinal context in which unfolding events can be interpreted in a broader historical and international context. Comparable volumes in the McGill-Queen's Comparative Charting of Social Change series describe similar tendencies in the United States, Quebec, France, Germany, Italy, Greece, Russia, and Bulgaria, making it possible to situate the Canadian experience in a global context.

A commemoration of two significant dates, The Supreme Court of Canada and its Justices is also a colourful portrait and an indispensable reference book. A bilingual co-publication of Dundurn Press and the Supreme Court of Canada, the book contains biographies, with portraits or photographs, of every Justice appointed to the Court since its inception. The Supreme Court of Canada and its Justices also features a preface by Chief Justice Beverley McLachlin and a history of the Court by former Chief Justice Antonio Lamer. A succession list and a selected bibliography are included for researchers. A key section of the book deals with the Court’s distinguished building, which was designed by renowned architect Ernest Cormier. Written by Professor Isabelle Gournay of the University of Maryland and France Vanlaethem of the Universite du Quebec a Montreal, this section is illustrated with Cormier’s own watercolours and drawings, as well as current photographs. The Supreme Court of Canada and its Justices is a fitting commemoration of the Supreme Court’s 125 years and its fiftieth year as the court of last resort in Canada.

The North Caribou terrane is one of the largest blocks with continental affinities in the western Superior Province. This paper reviews field relationships at the southern margin of this terrane in the western Uchi belt between Trout Lake, north-west Ontario, and Lake Winnipeg, Manitoba. After an introduction on the regional geological framework, the paper describes the Trout Lake Batholith, the Red Lake-Garner Lake lobe, the Bloodvein-Wanipigow River corridor, the English Lake magmatic complex, and the eastern Lake Winnipeg area. Implications of the observations for crustal architecture are discussed.

The Chapperon Group is a succession of Palaeozoic, variably metamorphosed and deformed sedimentary & volcanic rocks thought to have originated in a continental margin or back-arc basin, occupying a belt flanking the western margin of the Okanagan Batholith in the Vernon area of interior British Columbia. This report summarizes previous research on the Group, discusses relevant problems worthy of investigation (related to unconformities, stratigraphy, & lithology), and presents results of 1999 field work that examined Chapperon Group rocks in the Salmon River Canyon area.
