Spatiality and Environmental Justice in Parkdale (Toronto)

Abstract: Faisant partie d’un projet destiné à identifier les injustices environnementales au Canada, cet article définit une analyse critique de l’espace social afin de comprendre les problèmes de justice environnementale dans une communauté urbaine du Canada. Les injustices environnementales ayant un impact sur des situations géographiques particulières présentent un aspect spatial fixe et très apparent. Cependant, je soutiens qu’il est nécessaire d’avoir une plus large vue d’ensemble de la manière dont les politiques… Show more

“…Until recently, however, environmental justice has had a rather limited focus with regard to Indigenous peoples, with few studies in the context of those dependent upon land and natural resources within the northern regions of Canada (some of these studies include, e.g. : Draper and Mitchell 2001;Haluza-Delay 2007;Harter 2004;Jerret et al 1997;Mascarenhas 2007;McCurdy 1995;Page 2007;Teelucksingh 2002Teelucksingh , 2007Trainor et al 2007;Westra 2007;Whiteman 2004Whiteman , 2009Reed and George 2011). This is troubling, since Indigenous groups in Canada (referred to as First Nations), which have cultures based upon the land and natural resources found within their respective territories, are nationally at the lower end of nearly every social, economic, and health indicator (Booth and Skelton 2011;INAC 2010;Cooke et al 2004).…”

“…Nonetheless, there are a variety of documented cases of environmental racism and injustice and there is the rhetoric and an emerging practice of an environmental justice movement in Canada (Jerrett et al 2001;Teelucksingh 2002;Warriner, McSpurren and Nalamba, 2001). We build on these insights in our analysis of Toronto but we must add that one of the most dominant ways in which justice and the environment have been associated in Canada is through the-often contradictory-defence of what is left of Canada's industrial (and resource) economy and welfare state.…”
