Canada’s Right-Wing Extremists: Mapping their Ties, Location, and Ideas
Get PDFCanada has often been seen as a progressive country that is welcoming to immigrants, promotes multiculturalism, and generally as a kind and tolerant society. This study used a two-month close examination of Canada’s RWE online presence surrounding the 2019 federal election. Using social network analysis, this study fills a needed empirical gap in current understanding of this network that are known to produce and sustain domestic terrorism and extremist hate crimes in Canada. Then using both discourse and correspondence analysis, we find that Canada’s Right-Wing Extremists (RWEs) galvanize around the following key ideas: leftist-propensities towards violence, projecting especially views against the Antifa, anti-immigration, media corruption and dishonesty, anti-elite and anti-establishment values, anti-liberalism, populism, anti-LGBT, anti-environmentalism, biological determinism, white victimization, and anti-consumerism. By determining Canadian RWE’s ties, location and ideas our findings reveal that many RWE leaders are seen as authoritative for their views in the network and create content and community, potentially inciting active participation. As social contagion theory reminds us, these authorities in the RWE network may inspire others into concrete violent action and are of great concern to public safety
Political Skill: A Servant-Leadership Complementary
Get PDFThe constructs of political skill and servant-leadership may be thought of as paths to influence. Nevertheless, out of curiosity, one might enthusiastically ask whether political skill and servantleadership are two faces of the same coin serving a similar purpose. While one may argue that political skill is an astute skill that leaders employ to influence people to gain political mileage, in some sense, this is a potent argument because leaders do not nominate, elect or put themselves into positions of leadership
My Fortuitous Encounters: A Law & People Who Listened
Get PDFMy career in educational and athletic settings has spanned over four decades. I believe my vocational calling was serendipitously sparked and subsequently nurtured through many fortuitous encounters over a lifetime. Coined by Mr. D. J. De Pree in the 1920’s, fortuitous encounters are “evidence of the hand of God” (Davis & Spears, 2013, p. xiii) in our lives. Davis and Spears (2013) further described these encounters as “moments where a person, place, or thing causes our lives to change in a more positive direction” (p. 1). In this essay, I will describe persons, a place, and legislation (a thing) that affected my life path, and progressively moved me toward a servant-leadership ethic in my work. Focusing on four people who listened at pivotal times in my life, a thing (a law) that “listened” to the times, and my place of employment where a servant-leadership culture was encouraged, I reflect how the trajectory of my life was changed in a very positive way by these encounters

Beyond Laudato Si\u27: Embracing the Challenge of Franciscan Eco-Spirituality in the Age of Pope Francis
Get PDFTo the mark the 51st anniversary of Earth Day and the end of the year-long 5th anniversary celebration of Pope Francis\u27 landmark encyclical on climate change and environmental ethics, Laudato Si\u27, Gonzaga welcomed Daniel P. Horan, OFM, Ph.D., to campus to offer a lecture entitled, Beyond Laudato Si\u27: Embracing the Challenge of Franciscan Eco-Spirituality in the Age of Pope Francis.
From the beginning of his papal ministry, Pope Francis has sought to bring together two rich heritages: the Ignatian tradition of his Jesuit formation and identity with the Franciscan legacy of his papal namesake and inspiration. To celebrate the fifth anniversary of his landmark encyclical letter Laudato Si\u27, which inaugurated renewed commitment among Jesuit entities to “collaborate in care for our common home,” this lecture considered some of the ways that a Catholic Jesuit University might embrace the challenge of Franciscan eco-spirituality initially signaled in Laudato Si\u27, but that have remained generally underdeveloped. In this way, we might not only appreciate the beauty, wisdom, and pastoral urgency in the papal document itself, but also build on it in the spirit of both the Ignatian and Franciscan traditions.
Daniel P. Horan, OFM, PhD is a Franciscan friar of Holy Name Province (NY), Duns Scotus Chair in Spirituality and associate professor of systematic theology and spirituality at Catholic Theological Union in Chicago, a columnist for the National Catholic Reporter, and the author of several books including All God’s Creatures: A Theology of Creation (2018), Catholicity and Emerging Personhood: A Contemporary Theological Anthropology (2019), and Reading, Praying, Living Pope Francis’s Rejoice and Be Glad (2019). He is currently working on a book about the Incarnation and is also co-host of The Francis Effect Podcast

“It’s not Really Hate Crime” – Reframing Hate Crime as not Police Business” – Police Narratives of Resistance and Denial
Get PDFWithin a global pandemic and increased questioning of police utility and legitimacy around racism and violence against women and girls (VAWG), this article examines the gap between police policy and practices on hate crime. Based on research with police forces in Canada and the UK, it demonstrates how police officers view hate crime through a policing rather than victim-centred mandate. Without reframing hate crime as a public and community safety issue, hate crime policies and procedures designed to ‘take hate crime seriously’ are unlikely to do just that. Real ‘commitment’ is needed to tackle hate crime as part of the police mandate and role – otherwise hate crime policies remain a largely tick-box exercise
