In 1901, only three decades after Confederation, the English and French comprised 57% and 31% of the Canadian populatio…
Like Everyone Else but Different
Liberal democratic societies with diverse populations generally offer minorities two usually contradictory objectives: the first is equal integration and participation; the second is an opportunity, within limits, to retain their culture. Yet Canadian Jews are successfully integrated into all domains of Canadian life, while at the same time they also seem able to retain their distinct identities by blending traditional religious values and ritual…
Between High Culture and Daily Life

Results of a logistic regression indicate that in both provinces, black/white disparities in graduation rates disappear when income, family structure, language, gender, and place of residence are taken into …

Immigration Canada
Black Families and Socio-economic Inequality in Canada
There have been virtually no recent census-based studies on the familial characteristics of black Canadians. The present study is a partial replication and extension of a study on black families published two decades ago by Christensen and Weinfeld (1993) and based on the 1986 Canadian census. The present paper utilizes the 2006 census in order to examine the current conditions of black families in Canada and assess what has changed since 1986 in…
If Canada and Israel are at War, Who Gets My Support? Challenges of Competing Diaspora Loyalties
Canadian Jews, Dual/Divided Loyalties, and the Tebbit "Cricket" Test
This article explores the issue of dual or divided loyalties for Canadian Jews, with reference to ties to Canada on the one hand, and Israel and the Jewish community on the other. The article contextualizes this issue within two academic literatures, which in recent years have had very little interconnection. The first is the general literature dealing with diasporic studies and transnationalism. The second is the literature dealing with modern J…

Religious Practice and Psychological Distress
The present study examined the relationship between religious practice and psychological distress in a culturally diverse urban population to explore how religious affiliation, gender, ethnicity, and immigrant status affect this relationship. Data were drawn from a study of health care utilization in Montreal. A stratified community sample of 1485 yielded four religious groups: Protestant (n = 205), Catholic (813), Jewish (201), and Buddhist (150…

Sex, gender, ethnicity, and access to health care services
Still Moving
Entry and Exit
Immigration and the multicultural population that results from it are contentious issues in contemporary Canada. Canada accepts more than twice as many immigrants per capita as does the United States, and a majority of immigrants now comes from nontraditional sources in Asia, the Caribbean, and Central America. Critics of a liberal immigration policy charge that these newcomers threaten Canada's social harmony and challenge its cultural identity …
The Jews in Canada
This work contains much of the best new research on Canadian-Jewish society, politics, and history by leading scholars in these areas. By examining the achievement of the community and the challenges it faces, this clarifies not only the evolution of Jewish people, but the evolution of ethnicity in Canadian society. The authors compare and contrast modern Canadian Jewry with their own past and their counterparts in the United States. They explore…

National Survival in Dependent Societies
Both Quebec and Poland have undergone considerable change in the past few decades, change that can be described as a quiet revolution. This collection of essays by Polish and Canadian sociologists provides comparative analyses of the two societies and highlights institutional, political, cultural and socio-economic changes
Old Wounds
Continuity and Criticism
The Canadian and American Jewish communities, while sharing much common ground, are products of distinct historical, social, and political circumstances. Each community has been shaped by and has had to adapt to the forces, rhythms, and patterns of nations which have had substantially different attitudes towards ethnic and religious minorities. In Canada, where there are sharp differences and competing visions about national identity and consider…

Covenant Terminology in the Ancient Near East and Its Influence on the West
In the wake of intensive political relations between the variousypolitical powers in the Middle-East of the 15.-13. centuries B.C.E. a common treaty terminology had been established.

The Covenant of Grant in the Old Testament and in the Ancient near East
Two types of covenants occur in the Old Testament: the obligatory type reflected in the Sinai covenant and the promissory type reflected in the covenants with Abraham and David. It has been recently shown that the covenant between Yahweh and Israel was based on the treaty pattern prevalent in the ancient Near East, but no judicial prototype has been as yet found for the promissory type of the covenant. The author shows that the covenants with Abr…
