Les classes sociales et la culture sportive canadienne sont‐elles interreliées ? L'auteur, inspiré par les cadres conceptuels de classes sociales de Pierre Bourdieu et d'Erik Wright, dErit les résultats d'un travail exploratoire sur les classes sociales et le sport dans la province de Colombie‐Britannique. Son analyse utilise des données d'enquête originales afin de déterminer l'importance qu'ont les caractéristiques démographiques (sexe, âge et naissance), le capital (économique, culture1 et social) et les indicateurs néomarxistes des catégories sociales (comme la propriétééconomique, le contrôle sur le lieu de travail et les compétences professionnelles) sur l'étendue des connaissances sportives et sur la participation aux activités sportives. Cette analyse constitue donc un petit pas vers l'identification des classes sociales au Canada, soutenue ou délimitée par l'exercice des choix et des pratiques culturelles. Are social class and Canadian sports culture entwined? This article, inspired by the social class frameworks of Pierre Bourdieu and Erik Wright, describes results from an exploratory investigation of class and sport in the province of British Columbia. The analysis utilizes original survey data to determine the degree to which demographic characteristics (gender, age and nativity), capitals (economic, cultural and social) and neo‐Marxist indicators of class position (such as economic ownership, control in the workplace and job skill) predict breadth of sports knowledge and participation in sporting activities. The analysis therefore represents a small step towards identifying social classes in Canada that are sustained or delimited by the wielding of cultural tastes and practices
