The University of Ottawa is using a paper by Omar Ha-Redeye and Daniel Simard presented at the World Institute for Research and Publication, Media Narratives in Times of Turmoil: Depictions of Minorities in Canada Post 9/11, in the Winter 2011 syllabus of the CRM4305 course in the Criminology program.

This course examines topics in the theory and practice of crime and punishment in Canada and North America from the perspective of politics and political theory. The aim of the course is to explore the difficulties and complexities of the ideas of crime and punishment as they operate on a practical and political level. Attention is given to the unusual ideological coalitions that form in the debate over the criminal justice system.
