摘　　要： 本文通过追溯加拿大从国家形成到20世纪中期以来特定的政治、经济、文化、外交历史,指出传播技术的发展与加拿大国家政治历程、社会文化的演变互相交织,加拿大之特定的"技术民族主义"传统孕育了一种独特的传播景观和技术悖论,传播技术被赋予控制"时间"与"空间"、承担"求同"与"存异"的多重职能,并由此产生出一系列矛盾和困境。也正是基于此,形成了加拿大思想史中独特的传播技术思想传统,以英尼斯和麦克卢汉为代表的"技术文化学派"(多伦多学派)正是这种传播技术思想的集中体现。 By tracing the political, economical, cultural and diplomatic history from the founding of Canada to the mid- 20^th century, the article points out that the development of communication technology was closely entwined with the political process and social and cultural evolvement. The particular tradition of technological nationalism in Canada nurtured a unique communication landscape and technological paradox, i. e., communication technology was endowed with multiple functions of the control of time and space and the commitment to seek common grounds while reserving differences, which brought about series contradictions and difficulties. Based on this, the unique concept of communication technology came into being with Technical School Culture （Toronto School ） represented by Harold Innis and Marshall McLuhan as its core theory.
