Award-winning political writer
McCALL, 70, dies
Author published two volumes on Trudeau
By Oliver MOORE and Sandra
MARTIN,
Thursday,
April 28, 2005,
Page A8
Christina McCALL, the political writer who helped coin the phrase
"he haunts us still" about Pierre Trudeau, died yesterday morning
after a long illness. She was 70.
Ms. McCALL combined a journalism career with literary non-fiction
writing, winning several awards for her work and, at one point,
challenging her then-former-husband Peter C.
NEWMAN in a duel
played out at the top of the bestseller lists.
It was with her second husband, University of Toronto political
economist Stephen
CLARKSON, that she published two volumes on
Mr. Trudeau, establishing the oft-used phrase about the former
prime minister's ability to haunt Canadians.
Last night Mr.
CLARKSON said Ms.
McCALL had been seriously ill
for more than a year with three progressive, incurable illnesses.
She had found out about them one after the other, he said.
"But I don't want to concentrate on the illnesses," he said.
"She was the premier political analyst of her generation.
"She was a perfectionist," he said. "What she loved was getting
a letter from a carpenter who said she got it right. She was
writing for her fellows, and by that I mean her fellow Canadians."
She died in the Providence Healthcare centre in Toronto. Her
funeral is tomorrow.
In addition to her books, Ms.
McCALL wrote about Canadian politics
for years in senior positions at the magazines Saturday Night
and Maclean's and
at The Globe and Mail. She also held a position
as assistant editor at Chatelaine magazine.
It was at Maclean's that she met Mr.
NEWMAN, who at the time
was married, but admitted recently in print to being "bowled
over" by the editorial assistant. He suggested separation to
his first wife and then, finding she was pregnant, said that
he would remain until the birth, but could promise no more.
Mr. NEWMAN and Ms.
McCALL were married in the autumn of 1959.
Theirs was a literary as well as a marital partnership, with
Ms. McCALL helping shepherd his 1963 book on Diefenbaker through
the editing process.
Mr. NEWMAN once said she was his best editor.
The
Diefenbaker book sent Mr.
NEWMAN's reputation soaring, in
a period during which Ms.
McCALL continued writing. She received
several Press Club Awards for magazine writing
She produced her own book nearly two decades later, several years
after she and Mr.
NEWMAN had parted company in 1977. The next
year she married Mr.
CLARKSON.
The 1982 publication of Grits: An Intimate Portrait of the Liberal
Party peeled back layers of the governing party, offering Canadians
telling glimpses of their leaders.
In one anecdote, she described Mr.
TRUDEAU hearing over the phone
that a hockey game was in progress.
There was an "awkward pause at the other end of the line and
then Trudeau said, 'Oh, I see. What inning are they in?' "
Critics loved the book, which beat out a work from Ms.
McCALL's
former university professor, Northrop
FRYE, for the 1983 non-fiction
prize from the Canadian Authors Association. It was also nominated
for a Governor-General's Award.
Grits -- praised as "one of the most important Canadian books
of the 1980s" -- was locked in an end-of-year battle in 1982
with Mr. NEWMAN's biography of Conrad Black, The Establishment
Manitoba
Nearly a decade later Ms.
McCALL published the first volume of
her two-volume work on Mr. Trudeau, collaborating with Mr.
CLARKSON.
The first volume won the Governor-General's Award in 1990.
Other works include The Man From Oxbow (1967) and The Unlikely
Gladiators: Pearson and Diefenbaker Remembered (1999).
Ms. McCALL leaves her husband and three children, Ashley
McCALL,
Kyra CLARKSON and Blaise
CLARKSON.

Journalist,

She combined powerful analysis with insightful writing to produce

and then topped that by collaborating on the definitive study
of Pierre Trudeau
By Sandra MARTIN,

My, how she could write. Her sentences were as sensuous as they
were illuminating. Every word, every comma, was sculpted and
buffed as though she were working on marble not paper. Married
twice, first to writer Peter
NEWMAN and then to political economist
Stephen CLARKSON,
Christina
McCALL moved in powerful political,
journalistic and academic circles, but in the past dozen years
she was plagued with illnesses, from diabetes to cancer to Parkinson's,
and suffered from chronic pain.
Mr. NEWMAN, who flew from London to attend her funeral yesterday
in Toronto, compared her to a singer with perfect pitch. "It
is not something you learn, You have it or you don't, and she
had it." Assessing her importance as a writer, he said: "On the
negative side, the quantity wasn't there and I have no explanation
for that because she could have done anything and everything.
On the positive side, she brought a whole new way of looking
at the political world."
Prof. CLARKSON, with whom she collaborated on Trudeau and Our
Times, a two-volume study of the late prime minister, said she
"had a novelist's intuition," which she applied to political
actors instead of imagined characters in a fictional plot. "She
could understand their motivation, their psychology and where
they came from," he said, explaining that when they did joint
interviews, "she would come out understanding the person and
I would come out knowing the issues."
Christina McCALL was the daughter of civil servant Christopher
Warnock McCALL and Orlie Alma
(FREEMAN,) a registered nurse he
had married after the death of his first wife. Christina grew
up with an older half-brother, Sam, an older sister, Orlie and
a younger brother, Brian. She graduated from Jarvis Collegiate
in Toronto at 17 and spent that summer working at Maclean's magazine
to help earn her tuition at Victoria College in the University
of Toronto.
Northrop FRYE was a tremendous influence and she "always talked
about his lectures as the intellectual highlight of her life,"
according to Mr.
NEWMAN.
She wanted to go on to do graduate work,
according to Prof.
CLARKSON, but money was scarce. So, after
graduating with an honours degree in 1956, she returned as an
editorial assistant to Maclean's, which was then under the editorship
of Ralph Allan.
He became the second major influence in her life as a writer.
"He wasn't religious, but he had all the advantages of believing
in goodness and practising it, which is rare for editors," said
Mr. NEWMAN. "He was our role model and we became his Disciples
and tried to emulate his qualities." Ms.
McCALL's first book,
Ralph Allan: The Man from Oxbow (1967), was an anthology she
edited as a tribute to the legendary magazine editor.
It was at Maclean's that she met Mr.
NEWMAN. "
She was very junior,"
he said, "but I was blown away by her ability," not to mention
her allure. "Beauty and intelligence are a potent combination
and she had both in spades." They fell in love, but he was already
married.
She shifted to Chatelaine magazine. "She came to me in the late
1950s," said Doris
ANDERSON, then editor of Chatelaine. "She
was wonderful," said Ms.
ANDERSON. "
She was a great writer, very
insightful with an original eye and she used the language with
great skill and grace." Ms.
McCALL had two other qualities that
appealed to Ms.
ANDERSON:
She generated lots of ideas for the
magazine and underneath her demure appearance she was a dedicated
feminist.
She was also a woman in love. After Mr.
NEWMAN divorced, they
married in October of 1959. Shortly afterward, they moved to
Ottawa, where Mr.
NEWMAN became Ottawa editor of Maclean's. These
were the years when he was writing his book Renegade in Power:
The Diefenbaker Years with her help and she was beginning her
study of Lester Pearson and the Liberal Party.
Asked if she chose the Liberals because he was already working
on the Progressive Conservatives, Mr.
NEWMAN said no. "Any good
journalist in this country knows the Liberals are a natural subject
because they are such a force in this country. What gives them
such continuity and strength? Analyzing that is the prime ambition
of every political journalist." Besides, "the people who ran
that party were our Friends and contacts."
The NEWMAN /
McCALL marriage collapsed in the early 1970s. They
divorced in 1977. By that time, they had long since returned
to Toronto. Ms.
McCALL had worked as a freelance writer and as
a contributing editor and writer to Saturday Night and Maclean's.
She had also become friendly with Prof.
CLARKSON. He knew her
first through her writing, which he admired for its depth, insights
and authority. "You believed what she wrote," he said, "because
you knew she had thought about it and often her perceptions were
novel."
Prof. CLARKSON and his broadcaster wife, Adrienne
CLARKSON, now
the Governor-General, split up in 1973. Some time later, he invited
Ms. McCALL, who was then working as a national reporter for The
Globe and Mail, to have lunch to discuss the federal election
of 1974. He asked her to dinner a year later and they gradually
began a relationship.
They were married in 1978, bought a new home "to start afresh"
with the respective children from their first marriages. "We
were the operative parents," Prof.
CLARKSON said simply. Later,
he and Ms.
McCALL adopted each other's daughters. "It was the
symbolism of being one family rather than a split family," he
said. That tight arrangement led to painful estrangements from
the other biological parents -- Mr.
NEWMAN and Ms.
CLARKSON --
that were only resolved after the passage of time and the birth
of grandchildren.
Grits: An Intimate Portrait of the Liberal Party was finally
published in 1982. It was dedicated "with love and admiration"
to Stephen Hugh Elliott
CLARKSON.
The book, which caused a sensation,
was unlike most political writing at the time. It was a biography
of a party, not a person, but it was written as a series of profiles
of key figures (Keith Davey, Pierre Trudeau, Jim Coutts, Michael
Pitfield, John Turner and Marc Lalonde) from the Pearson years
through the Trudeau era.
"Grits is not only a brilliant portrait of how an arthritic party,
drenched in scandal, suddenly learned to dance again, but also
a textbook on how easily a bunch of young political junkies could
take over a party," said historian John
ENGLISH. "It endures
as one of the finest analyses of Canadian politics ever written."
Journalist Robert
FULFORD, who picked up Grits again after he
heard about Ms.
McCALL's death, said: "It is still fresh and
full of terrific insights into the politics of the 1960s and
1970s."
Besides forging a tight family unit, Ms.
McCALL and Prof.
CLARKSON
decided to collaborate as authors, she bringing her writing talent
and political insights and he contributing his organizational
skills and policy analysis to their study of Trudeau, which won
the Governor-General's award for volume one, The Magnificent
Obsession in 1990. Prof.
CLARKSON said the process was agonizing
because her method was to start with the introduction and polish
it before moving on, an approach he thought akin to "building
the front door before you've got the basement foundations in."
They wrote every sentence sitting side by side at the same keyboard.
Every few pages, they would "print out" and "haggle" over the
punctuation and the wording. "It was very, very slow," he said.
Even he can't remember who actually wrote of Mr. Trudeau, "He
haunts us still," saying that their editor Doug
GIBSON at McClelland
& Stewart also had a role in shaping the iconic sentence. Mr.
GIBSON recalls that they had written, "He still haunts us," and
he shifted the emphasis by moving the second word to the end
of the sentence.
Writing wasn't the only agony that Ms.
McCALL and Prof.
CLARKSON
shared. For most of their marriage, she was in severe physical
pain and he was the gentle and loving caregiver. "In the mid-1970s,
she had back pain and then arthritis, but the serious illnesses
began in 1993," he said, "when she was diagnosed with diabetes,
followed by breast cancer four years later." It wasn't so much
the malignancy, but the treatment that caused many of her subsequent
health problems.
The surgeon cut her brachial nerve during an operation to remove
the tumour in her breast, leaving her left shoulder, arm and
hand in chronic pain. "She was a very classy, elegant woman and
writer," said broadcaster Eleanor
WACHTEL, who became a friend
in the late 1990s, "but she was also very private."
Ms. McCALL didn't want anybody to know that she had breast cancer,
and didn't want to be seen looking frail and ill. Ms.
McCALL's
world shrank and she saw fewer and fewer people as her illnesses
progressed. Managing her pain grew harder, although she continued
to help her friend Rosemary
SPEIRS strategize for the Equal Voice
website (a movement to increase the number of women in elected
office in Canada). The real downhill journey began about a year
ago when she could no longer be cared for at home. Until almost
the end, though, say the few Friends who visited her, she was
a very astute, very witty and very engaging conversationalist.
It was a rough and frustrating passage for the woman many considered
the best political writer and analyst of her generation.
Christina McCALL was born in Toronto on January 29, 1935. She
died in Toronto of cancer on Wednesday. She was 70. She is survived
by her husband, Stephen
CLARKSON, three children and their families.

Senator Jerry
GRAFSTEIN writes about Christina
McCALL, whose
obituary appeared on April 30.
Great writers, like candles, illuminate the darkness enveloping
the human condition. The writer's art is to pull together the
disparate threads and weave them into an authentic story, making
sense of what is apparently senseless. So it was with Christina
McCALL.
To those who treasure the written word, Christina was herself
a treasure. Breathtakingly beautiful, she carried herself with
effortless grace and looked the part of an elegant Rosedale matron,
which she was. Yet beneath this elegant veneer was a restless,
energetic insightfully brilliant writer. She had a deep, velvety,
smoky voice and dark, melancholy eyes. Christina spoke purposely,
quietly and slowly. It was always difficult to concentrate on
the subject at hand because of the charm she exuded. My mother
taught me that a lady wore a hat and gloves. Christina did and
was. She wrote as beautifully as she looked. For her, there never
was a glass ceiling.
As a writer and journalist, she was meticulous. She always came
prepared with research and notes, that she took copiously. She
would pause to reread her notes and re-launch her enquiries.
She could penetrate to the essence, always touching the inner
core of whatever subject she had under the prism of her personal
microscope.

Globe and Mail columnist Roy
MacGREGOR also writes about Christina
McCALL.
Christina McCALL was one of those people who, like border collies,
like to think they can't be seen as they go about their work.
Back in the early 1970s, I spent several years as a very junior
editor at Maclean's. She was, surely, the only one on staff more
shy than I. She was beautiful -- dark and elegantly dressed --
but walked with shoulders hunched and tried, it seemed, to vanish
into the walls.
She edited the major-name freelancers, wrote pieces herself,
and was such a profound magazine mind that those of us who weren't
at all sure what we were doing there used to play a handy little
trick on her. The method of operation back then was to take an
article and "circulate" it among the staff. One by one, we editors
would read the piece, jot down a few thoughts, make some marginal
notes, and pass it on after crossing out our own name at the
top of the list. Then, once all the grand thoughts had been assembled,
you would write a "fix" note to the author, if necessary, and
send it off. The trick among those of us who hadn't a clue was
to take a piece and send it off immediately to Christine with
a vague note saying something like "There's something here, but
something also not here -- any thoughts?" A day or so later,
a brilliant note, neatly typed and often pages long, would be
dropped in your mailbox. Even before you dared "circulate" the
piece, you had your "fix" note, courtesy of the best mind in
the building. Like the best editors, and the best of border collies,
she did her finest work unnoticed.

Darlene MONEY of Mississauga, Ontario, writes about Christina
McCALL, whose obituary ran on April 30.
In 1952, as a freshman at the University of Toronto, I often
felt I didn't belong in that rarefied intellectual atmosphere.
But in second year, clever, witty Christina
McCALL and I became
close Friends, and my small-town outlook acquired from her a
little sophistication. Although sometimes we'd skip a dull lecture
to go to a movie (an art form she adored), we were both worshippers
at the altar of literature. Chris and I spent many hours between
classes drinking coffee and discussing the usual concerns of
bookish undergraduates -- authors and their works, essays to
be written, hopes for the future, and, of course, sex. She invented
clever, apt, but not always complimentary nicknames for our professors.
Her irritation threshold could be low, and her mood was occasionally
dark, a characteristic she attributed to the "black Irish" in
her.
We both thought we would be writers, but only she succeeded brilliantly.
For several years after graduation we stayed in touch but then
we drifted apart, meeting occasionally in the 1980s and '90s.
In 2003, my Christmas card was returned by the post office. I
understand now that she wanted only the company of her loved
ones as her health deteriorated but wish I could have visited
one last time.

Penny"
Serafina (Penny)
PETRONE, A.T.C.M., B.A., M.A., Ph.D., Order of Ontario
died unexpectedly on Monday August 22nd, 2005 in Vancouver, British
Columbia.
Daughter of the late Luisa
SISCO and Liugi
PETRONE,
Dr. PETRONE was born and raised in Port Arthur (Thunder Bay.)
She attended St. Joseph's School and the Port Arthur Collegiate
Institute where she won the first Canadian Federation of University
Women(Canadian Federation of University Women) scholarship given
to an outstanding Grade 13 female student in the Lakehead. After
graduating from Grade 13, Penny attended the North Bay Norman
School and began, at the age of eighteen, a long and productive
teaching career which encompassed the elementary, secondary,
teachers' college and university levels. Beginning in the one
room rural schools of the Onion Lake Road, and Five Mile, Dr.
PETRONE moved on to urban elementary in Port Arthur and Windsor,
Ontario and then to secondary in Chapleau, Parry Sound, Thunder
Bay, Soest, Germany, and Gros-tenquin (#3 Fighter Wing) France
with the Dept. of National Defence. After returning to Hillcrest
High School in Thunder Bay in 1958, she was offered a teaching
post in the newly-opened Lakehead Teachers' College. In 1963
she was seconded to the Dept. of External Aid to teach at Iganga
Teachers' College in Uganda, East Africa. In 1965 she was transferred
to Ottawa Teachers' College. A bout of breast cancer forced her
to return to Lakehead Teachers' College in 1968. But she managed
to turn a tragic situation into a positive life experience and
continued her teaching and academic upgrading, receiving her
Doctorate in English Literature from the University of Alberta.
After a two year residence in Edmonton, she resumed her teaching
duties at Lakehead University until her retirement. During this
time she was an indefatigable researcher and lecturer, writing
articles for a number of reference books as well as presenting
conference papers and press and broadcast interviews in Canada
and abroad. Her research on the Canadian Poet, Isabella Valancy
Crawford resulted in two books The Selected Short Stories of
Isabella Valancy Crawford and The Fairy Tales of Isabella Valancy
Crawford. They were the first books to make Crawford's prose
works publicly accessible. Dr.
PETRONE also pioneered the critical
study of aboriginal literature in Canada with her landmark books
First People, First Voices, and Northern Voices. Her Native Literature
in Canada was the first book-length history of the literature
of Canada's First Peoples. For this ground-breaking research,
Dr. PETRONE was made an honorary Indian Chief by the Gull Bay
Ojibwa and gained international recognition. After her retirement
from Lakehead University, Dr.
PETRONE's scholarly focus shifted
to the study of her Italian heritage. Anxious to promote Italian
culture, in January 1995, she was instrumental in forming 'I
Literati', a local reading group which focused on Italy's cultural
heritage in the fields of literature, art, music, history and
film as well as on the Italian immigrant experience in North
America. She also wrote two memoirs, Breaking the Mould and Embracing
Serafina. Her book Breaking the Mould was translated into Italian
and launched at the University of Rome, La Sapienza in July,
2005. Dr. PETRONE was a lover of the arts and served on the Boards
of Magnus Theatre and the Thunder Bay Regional Arts Council.
She also served on the Canada Council and the Ontario Arts Council.
Over the years she held various executive offices in teachers'
organizations and in the Canadian Federation of University Women.
She traveled extensively and was a popular platform speaker to
numerous community groups in Thunder Bay and district. During
her lifetime Dr.
PETRONE received many honours and awards: The
Corporation of the City of Thunder Bay Citizens of Exceptional
Achievement Awards (Culture) in 1981, 1984, and 1989, 'L'ordine
d'onore' from the National Congress of Italian Canadians (1994)
the 'Order of Ontario' (1992); Canada 124 Medal (1992); Honorary
Citizen of Piane Crate (1997); the Golden Jubilee Medal (2002)
the F.G. Bressani Literary Award (2002); the Kouhi award for
'her outstanding contribution to writing in Northwestern Ontario'
(May 2004.) Dr.
PETRONE was also the proud recipient of Lakehead
University's first 'Distinguished Teacher' Award in 1989 and
the Ontario Confederation of University Faculty Associations
teaching award (1988). She cherished the knowledge that she was
remembered fondly by generations of students as an outstanding
teacher. Dr. Penny
PETRONE is survived by her brother, Alfred
(Celina) in Thunder Bay, Ontario; her sister, Rita
McCALL
(Lawrence▼)
in Oakville, Ontario. A brother Frank predeceased her on March
16, 1988 as well as her sister Mary on July 14, 2004. Left to
mourn are many nieces, nephews, great nieces and nephews. Dedicated
teacher, author, role model and mentor, sister, aunt, friend,
