	The Bahá'í Community of Canada
		Religion in Canada, during the first half of the 20th century, played a formidable role in crystallizing the cultural, social, and economic forces of the country.
		Between 1898 and 1948, the Bahá'í Faith, as a missionizing religion, managed to attract over 550 people--all Canadians, three-quarters of whom remained Bahá'ís for the rest of their lives.
		Given the religious singleness of the early Bahá'ís in Canada, the length of Bahá'í membership as an expression of commitment, was remarkable.

	originsof the Bahai Faith in Canada
		Although Canada sent delegates to the National Convention from its earliest years, the book does not list them (A footnote [fn 1, p276] notes that there were eleven Canadian delegates to National Convention by 1947), nor does it discuss in detail possible issues relating to representation and the operation of the Bahá'’ electdoral system.
		In the Australian context, to make a comparative note, the communication that individuals, communities, and fledgling Bahá'’ institutions had with Shoghi Effendi often had considerable impact on their subsequent attitudes and behaviour, and it would be hard to write a history of the Australian Bahá'’ Community without constant reference to this interaction.
		The Origins of the Bahá'’ Community of Canada does not highlight such communications in the Canadian context, leaving the reader curious, given that an earlier publication, Messages to Canada (Toronto: 1965), does not include any of Shoghi Effendi’s pre-1948 correspondence except for his first message of 1923.

		This increase in a province where race-suicide is unknown and families proverbially numerous, in spite of a notable infantile death-rate, should be far greater, were it not for the continuous flow of emigration to the United States and to the western provinces of Canada, with a comparatively small immigration from Europe.
		The contrast between the amount spent and the number of schools, teachers, and pupils, instead of signifying an inferior quality of education, testifies to the economy wrought by the employment of teaching religious orders, 5805 of whose members (out of a total of 14,000 teachers) are employed in the public schools.

	The Origins of the Bahá'í Community of Canada, 1898-1948 by Christopher Buck (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-27)
		The Bah_'_ faith became the first religion in Canada to gain official recognition through an Act of Parliament when, in April 1949, the National Spiritual Assembly of the Bah_'_s of Canada (the annually elected governing Bah_'_ council which oversees all `Local Spiritual Assemblies' across Canada) was incorporated.
		Will C. van den Hoonaard's The Origins of the Bahá'í Community of Canada, 1898-1948 provides the background which led up to this unusual event and chronicles the transplantation, social adaptation, and development of an originally non-Western religion introduced in Canada in the early twentieth century.
		Van den Hoonaard succeeds in identifying some distinctive social features of this religious newcomer, the importance of which has been underscored by the recent appearance of several world religions texts that conclude with chapters on the Bah_'_ faith as the latest of the independent world religions.
