Last Best West
An Exploration of Myth, Identity, and Quality of Life in Western Canada
 |
There is something quintessentially "Western Canadian" that distinguishes and seperates living in this region from all other Canadian regions. But what does it mean to be "Western Canadian"? What meanings do the terms "the West" and being a "Westerner" invoke?
To answer these questions The Last Best West lays out the variety of approaches and unique research initiatives, with a novel focus on the following:
- small urban centres
- rural education
- regional representations and identities
- theatre
- literature and film
- visual representation, and
- quality of life issues
