About this book

Guns may be as American as apple pie, but what does it mean to own a gun north of the 49th parallel? While policy battles over gun control are often associated with American politics, debates about gun control are raging in Canada, prompting Canadian gun owners to transition from hobbyists to advocates. In Targeted, political scientist Noah S. Schwartz provides an insider's perspective on gun culture in Canada, unpacking the differences between Canadian and American gun activism. He explores how Canadians interpret the rising pro-gun movement in the country, its self-perception, its goals, and the strategies and funding sources that sustain it.
Arguing that a distinct pro-gun culture is emerging in Canada, Targeted highlights how the demands of the movement are closely linked to significant divisions in Canadian politics, such as the rural-urban divide and western alienation. Rather than viewing gun ownership as an unassailable constitutional right, the book reveals how Canadian gun owners frame their demands as a call for fair treatment from their leaders.

International Education as Public Policy in Canada
In the early twenty-first century international education emerged as an almost ubiquitous concept within discussions of educational curriculum; the objectives of schools, universities, and colleges; and government policies for K-12 and higher education. Although far from a new phenomenon, many jurisdictions now view international education as a highly competitive global industry. This book provides a comprehensive analysis of international education policy in Canada, tracing the complex history of when, how, and why it emerged as a policy area of strategic importance. Illuminating a uniquely Canadian perspective, influenced by regional interests and federal-provincial tensions, International Education as Public Policy in Canada addresses challenging questions: Why was Canada a latecomer in addressing this policy issue? What is the relationship between international education and Canadian immigration policy? How did international education develop as a major Canadian industry? The resulting essays from leading scholars contribute not only to the growing Canadian literature on international education policy but also to a critical, global conversation. Contemplating where the Canadian story of international education is headed, International Education as Public Policy in Canada calls for a broader debate on ethical practices in internationalization, focusing on inclusion, equity, compassion, and reciprocity.
