Abstract:
Background: Northern Ontario School of Medicine (NOSM) serves as the Faculty of Medicine of Lakehead and Laurentian Universities, and views the entire geography of Northern Ontario as its campus. This paper explores how community engagement contributes to achieving social accountability in over 90 sites through NOSM’s distinctive model, Distributed Community Engaged Learning (DCEL).Methods: Studies involving qualitative and quantitative methods contribute to this paper, which draws on administrative data from NOSM and external sources, as well as surveys and interviews of students, graduates and other informants including the joint NOSM-CRaNHR (Centre for Rural and Northern Health Research) tracking and impact studies.Results: Community engagement contributes throughout the lifecycle stages of preadmission, admission, and undergraduate medical education. High school students from 70 Northern Ontario communities participate in NOSM’s week-long Health Sciences Summer Camps. The MD admissions process involves approximately 128 volunteers assessing written applications and over 100 volunteer interviewers. Thirty-six Indigenous communities host first year students and third-year students learn their core clinical medicine in 15 communities, throughout Northern Ontario. In general, learners and communities report net benefits from participation in NOSM programs.Conclusion: Community engagement makes a key contribution to the success of NOSM’s socially accountable distributed medical education.

Abstract:
Introduction Workers are potentially exposed to known and suspected carcinogens in the workplace, many of which have not been fully evaluated. Despite persistent need, research on occupational cancer appears to have declined in recent decades. The formation of the Occupational Cancer Research Centre (OCRC) is an effort to counter this downward trend in Ontario. The OCRC conducted a survey of the broad stakeholder community to learn about priority issues on occupational cancer research. Methods The OCRC received 177 responses to its survey from academic, health care, policy, industry, and labour-affiliated stakeholders. Responses were analyzed based on workplace exposures, at-risk occupations and cancers by organ system, stratified by respondents’ occupational role. Results Priority issues identified included workplace exposures such as chemicals, respirable dusts and fibres (e.g. asbestos), radiation (e.g. electromagnetic fields), pesticides, and shift work; and occupations such as miners, construction workers, and health care workers. Insufficient funding and a lack of exposure data were identified as the central barriers to conducting occupational cancer research. Discussion The results of this survey underscore the great need for occupational cancer research in Ontario and beyond. They will be very useful as the OCRC develops its research agenda.

Abstract:
A deformed bimodal subaqueous volcanic centre in the western Archean Abitibi Subprovince of the Canadian Shield contains structures comparable with those of relatively undisturbed igneous complexes. Similarities include an annular fold pattern initiated by structural doming and downsagging of basaltic flows prior to the terminal felsic volcanism. During this cycle an ancestral dome was ruptured by a northeasterly regional graben defined by fossil fault scarps preserved beneath the terminal volcanic deposits. Fissure vents developed along the northwest boundary of the graben, gradually drained the underlying magma chamber, and transformed the crest of the dome into a central collapse basin surrounded by an annular anticlinal uplift marking the inner periphery of the former dome. Basalts on the basinward side of the fissure vents became detached along interflow argillites and glided into the central collapse, forming secondary gravity folds within the uppermost basalts. Subaqueous deposition of felsic debris occurred in the graben and subsiding collapse basin, succeeded by postvolcanic turbidites. The annular folds were modified by two phases of regional deformation, separated by an episode of Archean molasse sedimentation along the reactivated south boundary of the paleograben.

Abstract:
Lake Ontario is divided by two ridges of glacial till into three basins — Niagara, Mississauga, and Rochester in the western, central, and eastern parts, respectively, of the lake. Piston and benthos cores were taken by the Canada Centre for Inland Waters from each of the three basins from the research ship CSS Lymnos. The lithology, mineralogy, pollen content, and magnetic parameters of the sediment in these cores have been studied as a means of chronostratigraphic correlation. The transition from late glacial to postglacial sediment is inferred to take place where there is a marked increase in the numbers of pollen in the cores. Further chronostratigraphic correlation between cores has been based mainly on simultaneous matching of the magnetic parameters of declination, inclination, intensity, and ratio of natural remanent magnetization (NRM) to anhysteretic remanent magnetization (ARM). Type curves of declination, inclination, and NRM/ARM for Lake Ontario have been produced.

Abstract:
Ever since its entry from New York State in the late 1960s, the gypsy moth, Lymantria dispar (L.) (Lepidoptera: Lymantriidae), has continued to expand its distribution in Ontario to the north and west (Nealis and Erb 1993). Outbreaks were recorded for the first time in the Sudbury – North Bay region in the early 1990s, by which time there was evidence of resident populations extending along the north shore of Lake Huron as far west as Lake Superior. The population expansion along the north shore is characterized by a patchy occurrence of small outbreaks, which typically last for a few years and then disappear (Annual Forest Health Reports, Great Lakes Forestry Centre, http://www.glfc.cfs.nrcan.gc.ca/foresthealth/index_e.html). Nealis et al. (1999) found that winter weather, parasitoids, and the gypsy-moth-specific fungal pathogen Entomophaga maimaiga Humber, Shimazu et Soper (Zygomycetes: Entomophthorales) were the most prominent sources of mortality in those transient outbreaks.

Abstract:
Abstract A historical simulation (1976–2002) of the Abdus Salam International Centre for Theoretical Physics Regional Climate Model, version 4 (ICTP RegCM4), coupled to a one-dimensional lake model, is validated against observed lake ice cover and snowfall across the Great Lakes Basin. The model reproduces the broad temporal and spatial features of both variables in terms of spatial distribution, seasonal cycle, and interannual variability, including climatological characteristics of lake-effect snowfall, although the simulated ice cover is overly extensive largely due to the absence of lake circulations. A definition is introduced for identifying heavy lake-effect snowstorms in regional climate model output for all grid cells in the Great Lakes Basin, using criteria based on location, wind direction, lake ice cover, and snowfall. Simulated heavy lake-effect snowstorms occur most frequently downwind of the Great Lakes, particularly to the east of Lake Ontario and to the east and south of Lake Superior, and are most frequent in December–January. The mechanism for these events is attributed to an anticyclone over the central United States and related cold-air outbreak for areas downwind of Lakes Ontario and Erie, in contrast to a nearby cyclone over the Great Lakes Basin and associated cold front for areas downwind of Lakes Superior, Huron, and Michigan.

Abstract:
The medical school at McMaster University (Hamilton, Ontario) was conceived in 1965, and admitted the first class in 1969. John Evans became the founding Dean and he invited EJ Moran Campbell to be the first Chairman of the Department of Medicine. Moran Campbell, already a world figure in respiratory medicine and physiology, arrived at McMaster in September 1968, and he invited Norman Jones to be Coordinator of the Respiratory Programme.At that time, Hamilton had a population of 300,000, with two full-time respirologists, Robert Cornett at the Hamilton General Hospital and Michael Newhouse at St Joseph’s Hospital. From the clinical perspective, the aim of the Respiratory Programme was to develop a network approach to clinical problems among the five hospitals in the Hamilton region, with St Joseph’s Hospital serving as a regional referral centre, and each hospital developing its own focus: intensive care and burns units at the Hamilton General Hospital; cancer at the Henderson (later Juravinski) Hospital; tuberculosis and rehabilitation at the Chedoke Hospital; pediatrics and neonatal intensive care at the McMaster University Medical Centre; and community care at the Joseph Brant Hospital in Burlington. The network provided an ideal base for a specialty residency program. There was also the need to establish viable research.These objectives were achieved through collaboration, support of hospital administration, and recruitment of clinicians and faculty, mainly from our own trainees and research fellows. By the mid-1970s, the respiratory group numbered more than 25; outpatient clinic visits and research had grown beyond our initial expectations. The international impact of the group became reflected in the clinical and basic research endeavours.ASTHMA: Freddy Hargreave and Jerry Dolovich established methods to measure airway responsiveness to histamine and methacholine. Allergen inhalation was shown to increase airway responsiveness for several weeks, and the late response was shown to be an immunoglobulin E-mediated phenomenon. Paul O’Byrne and Gail Gauvreau showed that the prolonged allergen-induced responses were due to eosinophilic and basophilic airway inflammation and, with Judah Denburg, revealed upregulation of eosinophil/basophil progenitor production in bone marrow and airways. The Firestone Institute became the centre of studies identifying the inflammatory phenotype of patients with difficult-to-control asthma. Freddy Hargreave and others developed methods for sputum induction to identify persisting eosinophilic airway inflammation and documented its presence in the absence of asthma, and in patients with persistent cough. Parameswaran Nair has applied these techniques to the management of asthma in routine clinical practice. The Asthma Quality of Life Questionnaire and the Asthma Control Tests were developed by Liz Juniper and Gordon Guyatt. The first Canadian evidence-based clinical guidelines for asthma management in 1989 were coordinated by Freddy Hargreave, Jerry Dolovich and Michael Newhouse.DISTRIBUTION OF INHALED PARTICLES: Michael Newhouse and Myrna Dolovich used inhaled radiolabelled aerosols to study the distribution of inhaled particles and their clearance in normal subjects, smokers and patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. They developed the aerochamber, and were the first to radiolabel therapeutic aerosols to distinguish the effects of peripheral versus central deposition. Particle deposition and clearance were shown to be impaired in ciliary dyskinesia and cystic fibrosis.DYSPNEA: Moran Campbell and Kieran Killian measured psychophysical estimates of the sense of effort in breathing in studies of loaded breathing and exercise to show that dyspnea increased as a power function of both duration and intensity of respiratory muscle contraction, and in relation to reductions in respiratory muscle strength. These principles also applied to dyspnea in cardiorespiratory disorders.EXERCISE CAPACITY: Norman Jones and Moran Campbell developed a system for noninvasive cardiopulmonary exercise testing using an incremental exercise test, and more complex studies with measurement of mixed venousPCO2by rebreathing. The 6 min walk test was validated by Gordon Guyatt. Kieran Killian and Norman Jones introduced routine muscle strength measurements in clinical testing and symptom assessment in exercise testing. Muscle strength training improved exercise capacity in older subjects and patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease.METABOLISM AND ACID-BASE CONTROL IN EXERCISE: After showing that imposed acidosis reduced, and alkalosis improved performance, Norman Jones, John Sutton and George Heigenhauser investigated the interactions between acid-base status and metabolism in exercise.HIGH-ALTITUDE MEDICINE: John Sutton and Peter Powles participated in high-altitude research on Mount Logan (Yukon), demonstrating sleep hypoxemia in acute mountain sickness and its reversal by acetazolamide, and participated in Operation Everest II.EPIDEMIOLOGY: David Pengelly and Tony Kerrigan followed children living in areas with differing air quality to show that lung development was adversely affected by pollution and maternal smoking. Malcolm Sears and Neil Johnstone showed that the ‘return to school’ asthma exacerbation epidemic was due mainly to rhinoviruses. David Muir investigated the effects of silica exposure in hard-rock miners, and mortality in the nickel industry.SUMMARY: The Respirology Division has grown to more than 50 physicians and PhD scientists, currently provides the busiest outpatient clinic in Hamilton, and has successful training and research programs.

Abstract:
The dispatch of water bombers and fire-fighting crews to newly reported fires is an important task carried out by modern regional forest fire management centres. The problem of bomber dispatch involves the use of aircraft of varying speeds, cost, and fire-fighting effectiveness. Candidate aircraft for dispatch can be situated at remote attack bases or at ongoing fires. The problem of crew dispatch also involves candidate crews situated at remote attack bases or at ongoing fires, but unlike bomber dispatch, helicopter transport must be arranged. A transport helicopter must be flown to the specific crew's location and then to the fire. A helicopter is permitted a second trip to pick up an additional crew. The bomber- and crew-dispatch problems have both been formulated as dynamic programming algorithms. The bomber formulation closely resembles the traditional "knapsack" formulation. The crew and helicopter dispatch problem involves a more general formulation. Both algorithms are illustrated by simple examples. FORTRAN programs have been written for both algorithms. These programs are embedded within a large expert system which defines the desired bomber force and number of crews to be dispatched to a specific fire. This system is presently being tested at the North Central Regional Fire Centre of the Ontario Ministry of Natural Resources, located at Thunder Bay. It is expected that this system will undergo several years of testing and modifications before it is considered operational. Recent trials at the Thunder Bay fire centre have demonstrated the potential of the expert system, including the two dynamic programming algorithms, by matching or exceeding the dispatching performance of the dispatchers.

Abstract:
In this work, snow data, collected at the Centre for Atmospheric Research Experiments (CARE) site during the winter of 2005/06 as part of the Canadian CALIPSO/CloudSat Validation Project (C3VP) were analyzed with various goals in mind: 1) investigate the effects of surface temperature and system depth on the snow fall velocity and particle size distribution, 2) find the variables that control the relationships between snow fall velocity and size (control variables), 3) retrieve the coefficient and the exponent in the power-law mass-size relations used in snow reflectivity, 4) estimate vertical air motion and 5) describe the shape of snowflakes that can be used in polarimetric studies of snow. It also includes considerable calibration work on the Hydrometeor Velocity and Shape Detector (HVSD); as well as sensitivity testing for radar calibration and Mie-scattering effect on snow density.
Snow events were classified into several categories according to the radar echo vertical extent (H), surface and echo top temperatures (T s, Tt), to find their effects on snow fall velocity and particle size distribution. Several case studies, including situations of strong turbulence, were also examined.
Simple and multiple correlation analyses between control variables and parameters of the power-law size-velocity relationship were carried out for 13 snow cases having a high R2 between their mean snowflakes fall velocity and the v-D fitted curve, in order to find the control variables of power-law v-D relations. Those cases were all characterized by single layered precipitation with different echo depth, surface and echo top temperatures. Results show that the exponent "b" in v-D power-law relationship has little effect on the variability of snow fall velocity; all control variables (T s, Tt, H) correlate much better to the coefficient "a" than to the exponent "b", leading to a snow fall velocity that can be simulated with a varying coefficient "a" and a fixed exponent "b" (v=aD0.15) with good accuracy. Coefficient "a" and exponent "b" for a generic snow v-D relationship were also examined. The results indicate that coefficient "a" of generic snow represents the most frequent coefficient "a" during the events, while the exponent "b" does not show any representative.
Retrieval of the coefficient "a" and exponent "b" in a power-law mass-size relation, which eventually affects the snow reflectivity, was conducted by minimizing the root mean square (RMS) of differences in reflectivity between Vertically pointing McGill X-band Radar (VertiX) and HVSD. Minima of reflectivity differences lay on a diagonal direction of a diagram of the coefficient "a" (x-axis) versus exponent "b" (y-axis). It is shown that as the system deepens, the slope gets less steep. In addition, coefficient and exponent for this mass-size relation change with time, and snow density derived from several combined snow events does not explain the average snow density of the period.
A method to retrieve vertical air motion with good accuracy using VertiX and HVSD is suggested. Several snow shape parameters and relations between the area ratio (Ar) and size of snowflakes (Ar-D relation) are investigated with snow dimensions defined in various ways. These Ar-D relations will be used as a guideline in snow density models.

Abstract:
In a study we conducted with Ontarian women about their abortion experiences (OAS), one third of participants expressed a desire for post-abortion support. Yet, there is some anecdotal evidence to suggest that organizations offering these services are using judgmental frameworks. In order to rigorously investigate this, we explored what post-abortion support services are offered across the province of Ontario. This multi-methods study included an analysis of OAS data, creating a directory of post-abortion support services in the province, conducting an analysis of how these services represent themselves online, and carrying out mystery client interactions. We found that the majority of organizations offering post-abortion support services in Ontario are crisis pregnancy centers. The services offered at these organizations are built upon frameworks that are both shaming and stigmatizing of abortion experiences. Efforts to increase the online visibility and overall accessibility of non-judgmental, medically accurate post-abortion support services in Ontario appear warranted.

Abstract:
There is the desire amongst elderly Canadians to remain living at home, maintaining their independence. As the population ages, the health care system is faced with the challenge of allocating limited resources. Home care in Ontario is provided through Community Care Access Centres (CCAC) or Community Support Agencies (CSA). This study made comparisons among CSA clients (using the interRAI-Community Health Assessment, n=796), a sub-population of CCAC clients with lighter-care needs (n=8163) and all other CCAC clients (n=31,078), both using the Minimum Data Set-Home Care (MDS HC). The majority of clients in all groups were female, widowed, and spoke English as their primary language. CCAC clients had more health conditions than did CSA clients. Light-care CCAC clients received less hours of formal support than other CCAC clients and were less likely to have informal support caregivers who reported caregiver burden. Between 1998 and 2005, Ontario provided services to an increasingly impaired home care population, although overall impairment among home care client remained low. For the purposes of benchmarking, MDS HC data from Ontario was compared with MDS HC data from 11 European countries and was found to fall within the range of the other countries in terms of average impairment level of home care clients. Logistic regression was used to predict the likelihood of receiving CCAC services. Not being self-reliant, having decline in activities of daily living, having experienced falls, self-reporting one's health to be poor and reporting less loneliness were all correlates for CCAC service use. Implications and direction for future research were discussed.

This study investigated international medical graduates (IMGs), registered between January 1, 2007 and April 14, 2011, at the Access Centre for Internationally Educated Health Professionals in Ontario. By way of logistic regression in a cross-sectional design, it was found that permanent residents who were recent immigrants had lesser chances of being employed full-time at registration (baseline). By way of survival analysis in a cohort design, it was found that younger IMGs who have been in Canada less than 5 years and who have taken the Medical Council of Canada Evaluating Exam (MCCEE) have the greatest chances of securing residency positions in Canada or the US, whereas IMGs from Eastern Europe, South Asia and Africa have lesser chances. It was revealed that registered IMGs are a vulnerable population, and certain groups may be disadvantaged due to underlying characteristics. These groups can be targeted for specific interventions.

Abstract:
Robot assisted therapy is becoming increasingly popular. Research has proven it can be of benefit to persons dealing with a variety of disorders, such as Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD), Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD), and it can also provide a source of emotional support e.g. to persons living in seniors’ residences. The advancement in technology and a decrease in cost of products related to consumer electronics, computing and communication has enabled the development of more advanced social robots at a lower cost. This brings us closer to developing such tools at a price that makes them affordable to lower income individuals and families. Currently, in several cases, intensive treatment for patients with certain disorders (to the level of becoming effective) is practically not possible through the public health system due to resource limitations and a large existing backlog. Pursuing treatment through the private sector is expensive and unattainable for those with a lower income, placing them at a disadvantage. Design and effective integration of technology, such as using social robots in treatment, reduces the cost considerably, potentially making it financially accessible to lower income individuals and families in need. The Objective of the research reported in this manuscript is to design and implement a social robot that meets the low-cost criteria, while also containing the required functions to support children with ASD. The design considered contains knowledge acquired in the past through research involving the use of various types of technology for the treatment of mental and/or emotional disabilities.

Kinuthia, Wanyee. "“Accumulation by Dispossession” by the Global Extractive Industry: The Case of Canada." Thèse, Université d'Ottawa / University of Ottawa, 2013. http://hdl.handle.net/10393/30170.

Full text
Abstract:
This thesis draws on David Harvey’s concept of “accumulation by dispossession” and an international political economy (IPE) approach centred on the institutional arrangements and power structures that privilege certain actors and values, in order to critique current capitalist practices of primitive accumulation by the global corporate extractive industry. The thesis examines how accumulation by dispossession by the global extractive industry is facilitated by the “free entry” or “free mining” principle. It does so by focusing on Canada as a leader in the global extractive industry and the spread of this country’s mining laws to other countries – in other words, the transnationalisation of norms in the global extractive industry – so as to maintain a consistent and familiar operating environment for Canadian extractive companies. The transnationalisation of norms is further promoted by key international institutions such as the World Bank, which is also the world’s largest development lender and also plays a key role in shaping the regulations that govern natural resource extraction. The thesis briefly investigates some Canadian examples of resource extraction projects, in order to demonstrate the weaknesses of Canadian mining laws, particularly the lack of protection of landowners’ rights under the free entry system and the subsequent need for “free, prior and informed consent” (FPIC). The thesis also considers some of the challenges to the adoption and implementation of the right to FPIC. These challenges include embedded institutional structures like the free entry mining system, international political economy (IPE) as shaped by international institutions and powerful corporations, as well as concerns regarding ‘local’ power structures or the legitimacy of representatives of communities affected by extractive projects. The thesis concludes that in order for Canada to be truly recognized as a leader in the global extractive industry, it must establish legal norms domestically to ensure that Canadian mining companies and residents can be held accountable when there is evidence of environmental and/or human rights violations associated with the activities of Canadian mining companies abroad. The thesis also concludes that Canada needs to address underlying structural issues such as the free entry mining system and implement FPIC, in order to curb “accumulation by dispossession” by the extractive industry, both domestically and abroad.

Abstract:
In 1995, the Ontario provincial government, under conservative premier Mike Harris, repealed legislation put in place the year before by the former central-left government of Bob Rae that protected Ontario’s agricultural workers under the province’s labor code. Migrant workers were also affected by this legislation. In late April 2001, Mexican workers staged a two-day strike in a Leamington greenhouse, and in May 2001, approximately 100 Mexican offshore farmworkers protested in Leamington against substandard working and living conditions, including the lack of safety protection against pesticides, overcrowded living spaces, long working hours, no overtime pay, insufficient medical care, unfair government paycheck deductions, and threats of deportation to their home countries. After these events, some of the protesters were dismissed from the offshore program and sent back to Mexico. The media reports on these protests varied widely. Reports were either sympathetic to the workers’ concerns, or they condemned the protests as unjustified nagging by a small minority of angry workers. Several of the newspaper reports that were sympathetic to the protesting workers (e.g., Kitchener-Waterloo [Ontario] Record 2001; St. Catharines [Ontario] Standard 2001) presented the same quote from an anonymous migrant worker who criticizes the unfair treatment of foreign migrant workers by Canadian employers: “What I’ve realized here in Canada is that employers don’t hire us as human beings. They think we’re animals. . . . The first threat that they always make is that if you don’t like it, you can go back to Mexico.” In a report about the same protests, the Windsor (Ontario) Star quoted farmworkers who articulated similar concerns: “‘Growers don’t care whether you’re injured or not, they only care when you’re healthy,’” and “[the grower] said, ‘If you don’t work faster, you’ll be sent back to Mexico’” (Welch 2001). Other articles gave the events a different spin. A fact-finding mission after the protests uncovered that only a few migrant workers filed formal complaints against their employers. The lack of complaints was interpreted as assurance that workers were satisfied with their employment circumstances.

Abstract:
This chapter examines the continuum of care in use at the Yee Hong Centre for Geriatric Care in Toronto, Ontario, Canada. The service continuum is a response to the needs of a diverse Chinese Canadian population, where services in the appropriate language and culture are limited. Within the funding context, service coordination for seniors within Ontario can be characterized as fragmented, with over-use of acute care hospitalization and long-term care institutionalization. Community agencies must find a way to adapt to changing systems as the Ontario government moves away from institutionalization and toward community care. This chapter explores challenges that are faced by a socially-minded organization within a medically-minded funding system. It also addresses ways to cope with the constraints.

Abstract:
High Speed Rail (HSR) is gaining popularity around the world for a variety of reasons. However, North America lags behind and in particular Canada, where there is no HSR. There has been discussion of implementing HSR in Canada since the 1970s in two possible corridors (one in central Canada and the other in Alberta). In this chapter, the feasibility studies that have been done on both corridors are discussed. In this respect, the focus is on the recent studies, from different sources including the Alberta Legislature, Ontario and Quebec Governments, consulting companies, and a non-profit transportation institute. The factors that influence the viability of HSR are discussed and reference is made to HSR implementations in other countries that could inform the development of HSR in Canada. On a positive note, it appears that the Ontario government plans to move ahead with HSR in part of the central Canadian corridor.

Blastomyces dermatitidis is a fungus endemic in the central and eastern United States. It is coendemic with Histoplasma capsulatum in much of the central and southeastern United States, including the Mississippi and Ohio river valleys. Distribution of B dermatitidis extends farther north and west than H capsulatum and includes northern Wisconsin, Minnesota, Ontario, and Manitoba. Fungal growth occurs in nitrogen-rich soils close to streams, rivers, and lakes. Many outbreaks of blastomycosis occur within 100 meters of recreational water. Infection can be asymptomatic or can cause flulike symptoms, pneumonia, or skin, bone or CNS manifestations. Diagnosis and treatment are also reviewed.

Abstract:
In our globally connected, ever-changing society, the ability to adapt to new environments and technologies can greatly enhance success. In Canada,“21st century skills” are being prioritized in the education system so that young children can develop skills to thrive in our technologically advanced world. However, current teaching practices do not always appear to include 21st century skills in the curriculum. This chapter seeks to examine Canadian university Bachelor of Education programs to gather information about where, and how often, 21st century skill training occurs in pre-service teacher education. A keyword search was conducted on program and course descriptions from 45 Canadian university websites to determine where 21st century skill terminology was present. Next, a more in-depth examination of one specific teacher education program in a consecutive, pre-service program in a mid-sized urban centre in Ontario was conducted. Recommendations are discussed for pre-service education in support of integrating 21st century skills in teacher preparation.

Abstract:
This chapter compares Buffalo, New York, and Toronto, Ontario, two urban areas located on the Great Lakes with similar populations (one million) in 1950. Toronto has since passed the six million mark, while Buffalo seems trapped in a seemingly irreversible cycle of economic decline. The diverging destiny of the two cities has many roots (e.g., the St. Lawrence Seaway, the collapse of Big Steel) but invariably sends us back to the different political cultures of the United States and Canada. The government of Ontario stepped in early in the urbanization process to impose a model of metropolitan governance on the Toronto region, with the explicit aim of deterring the emergence of deep social divides, specifically between city and suburb, and ensuring the maintenance of a strong central core. The state of New York did no such thing in Buffalo, for which Buffalo continues to pay a price.

Using a framework of transcultural education and culturally responsive teaching it draws on research conducted in Southern Ontario, Canada and Central Florida, areas with large and growing diverse populations. We posit that schools are sites of social learning and cultural border crossing, where dominant discourses must be disrupted and the lived experiences of diverse students brought into the center of the teaching and learning process. Through the use of narratives and critical reflection teachers critically examined ways to develop agency and take action to create change. The findings highlighted in this chapter have significance for experienced and novice teachers, teacher educators and faculties of education and school leaders who are seeking to address issues of diversity and equity in critical ways.

Abstract:
A preliminary design and feasibility study has been conducted for a 200 kWe solar thermal power plant for operation in Ontario. The objective of this study is to assess the feasibility of small-scale commercial solar thermal power production in areas of relatively low insolation. The design has been developed for a convention centre site in Toronto, Ontario. The plant utilizes a portion of the large flat roof area of the convention centre to accommodate the collector array. Each power plant module provides a constant electrical output of 200 kWe throughout the year. The system is capable of maintaining the constant output during periods of low insolation, including night-time hours and cloudy periods, through a combination of thermal storage and a supplemental natural gas heat source. The powerplant utilized the organic Ranking cycle (ORC) to allow for relatively low source temperatures from the solar collector array. A computer simulation model was developed to determine the performance of the system year-round using the utilizability-solar fraction method. The ORC powerplant uses R245fa as the working fluid and operates at an overall efficiency of 11.1%. The collector is a non-concentrating evacuated tube type and operates at a temperature of 90°C with an average annual efficiency of 23.9%. The system is capable of achieving annual solar fractions of 0.686 to 0.874 with collector array areas ranging from 30 000 to 40 000 m2 and storage tank sizes ranging from 3.8 to 10 × 106L respectively. The lowest possible cost of producing electricity from the system is $0.393 CAD/kWh. The results of the study suggest that small-scale solar thermal plants are physically viable for year round operation in Ontario. The proposed system may be economically feasible given Ontario’s fixed purchase price of $0.42 CAD/kWh, but the cost of producing electricity from the system is highly dependent on the price of the solar collector.
