Children’s Place and Voice in Quebec’s Child Protection Proceedings

This article explores children’s participation and their right to be heard in Quebec’s child protection proceedings. While children’s participation rights are well protected in international and domestic legal instruments, they have received little attention in relation to child protection. This article aims to fill a gap in the legal literature by reporting on the results of an empirical research project examining children’s participation in judicial child protection procedures in Quebec. The participation of judges, social workers, and children in this research sheds light on practice that is clearly inspired by the Quebec’s rights- advancing Youth Protection Act (YPA) but that remains confronted with uncertainties and inconsistencies. While children are recognized as subjects of rights, many will not have the chance to express their views freely and to be heard by the decision-maker. A review of practice leads to a critical analysis of child testimony and legal representation as ways to hear children. The attitudes of the professionals in relation to these practices and gaps in the legislation lead us to suggest various changes that could help make practice more respectful of children’s rights

Le motif du voile dans Sordidissimes de Pascal Quignard

Les trois paradigmes majeurs à partir desquels s’oriente l’analyse du voile dans Sordidissimes de Pascal Quignard sont les vêtements et la nudité, les « sordes » et le linceul, la toile et le regard. C’est à l’aide de l’analyse thématique et de la psychanalyse que la relation du voile au corps, à la mort et à l’art, est interprétée. Ce que l’on souhaite mettre en évidence est que le voile tient lieu de l’ambivalence. Il se trouve perpétuellement tendu par la volonté du sujet qui l’utilise tour à tour pour recouvrir ou révéler l’objet de ses désirs ou de ses peurs. Le voile incarne ainsi la frontière d’où s’origine la fascination, qu’elle soit morbide ou sexuelle.The bases of our analysis of the veil in Pascal Quignard’s Sordidissimes are the three following paradigms : clothing and nudity, sordes and shroud, and canvas and gaze. Thematic analysis as elaborated by Jean-Pierre Richard and psychoanalysis will guide our interpretation of the relation of the veil to the body, death and arts. The purpose of this study is to demonstrate the constant movement of the veil. It is not static; the breeze that is the willpower of the self always moves the veil without ever tearing it off. What the veil is hiding or partially revealing is the origin of the fascination – bet it morbid or sexual
