Abstract:

Canada frostweed (Helianthemum canadense) is a perennial herb whose abundance and habitat are declining in Nova Scotia. These sites mark the northeastern limit of this species with nearest populations occurring in Maine and Quebec. To determine the genetic structure of northeastern populations, we used amplified fragment length polymorphisms to examine individuals from Nova Scotia, Maine, New Hampshire, and Quebec. Cluster analyses and analysis of molecular variance identified four groups: (i) Queens County, Nova Scotia; (ii) Kings County, Nova Scotia; (iii) Quebec; and (iv) Northeastern New E

Abstract:

The tobacco cyst nematode Globodera tabacum (Lownsbery & Lowns-bery) Behrens is a damaging soilborne pathogen of shade and broadleaf tobacco in the United States (2). Nematode infection of roots can cause dramatic stunting, yield loss, and reduce leaf quality. G. tabacum is considered a complex of three cyst nematodes not distinguishable morphologically including G. tabacum tabacum, G. tabacum virginiae, and G. tabacum solanacearum. During 1998, infested flue-cured tobacco plants were harvested in the Lanaudière Region near Montreal, Quebec. Cysts recovered from roots and soil were identif

Abstract:

The red-winged blackbird (Agelaius phoeniceus) population in southwestern Quebec more than doubled between 1966 and 1981, apparently in response to increased corn production. In southwestern Ontario less pronounced increases in blackbirds and corn production also occurred. Although larger blackbird populations have been responsible for greater crop damage, it is the waste corn left in fields by mechanical harvesters that supports the increased blackbird population. The increased availability of waste corn during the spring and summer (breeding season) was likely most important in allowing the

The two sills are compositionally distinct, with crossing rare earth element profiles and different incompatible element ratios, which eliminates the possibility of a simple petrogenetic relationship.

Abstract:

During the 2006 winter and 2007 spring seasons, tomato lines carrying the Ty2 gene, which confers resistance to the Tomato leaf curl Taiwan virus (GenBank Accession No. U88692), showed severe yellowing, leaf curl, and stunting symptoms in several locations in Tainan County, Taiwan. Whiteflies were found to be associated with symptomatic plants, and disease incidences of almost 100% were observed. The presence of a new resistance breaking begomovirus was suspected. Six symptomatic leaf samples of three different tomato plants from each infected field were collected in Liouying (LY3, 7, and 8) a

A study carried out in 2015-2016 by Centre de recherche industrielle du Québec (CRIQ) confirmed that it was still possible for hydrogen sulfide (H2S) emissions to cause odor issues in and around the site.

This study used a unique database of long-term bicycle counts from 38 locations in five North American cities and along the Route Verte in Quebec, Canada, to analyze bicycle ridership patterns. The cities in the study were Montreal, Quebec; Ottawa, Ontario; and Vancouver, British Columbia, in Canada and Portland, Oregon, and San Francisco, California, in the United States. Count data showed that the bicycle volume patterns at each location could be classified as utilitarian, mixed utilitarian, mixed recreational, and recreational.

Abstract:

As in any developed country, light pollution is a serious problem in Quebec. However, a specific cultural and economical situation forces us to use new tactics when it is time to discuss this problem. As an example, using energy loss as an argument against light pollution is very inefficient since the electricity is cheap (US$0.04/kWh) and clean (hydroelectricity). On the other hand, using the negative ecological impacts of light pollution appears to be the most effective way to create awareness in the population.

The introduction of the Report of the Royal Commission on Bilingualism and Biculturalism lays the foundation for two official language minority communities in Canada, and the principle of equality, which “implies respect for the idea of minority status, both in the country as a whole and in each of its regions.” However, the Official Languages Act that flowed from the ‘Bi and Bi Commission, and the structures that oversee it, have not reflected an approach based on equality. The English-speaking community of Quebec—Canada’s English linguistic minority community—has not received “generous treat

Abstract:

The rights of aboriginal peoples may vary from one part of the country to the other. This stems from the origin of Canada, its history, its Imperial and the Constitutional Statutes which have determined the territorial evolution of Canada. The terms of the Quebec Act seem to limit the hunting territories of the Indians to that part of Quebec which was not a part of the Colony in 1763. While a federal law extinguished all aboriginal rights in the territory covered by the James Bay agreements, the amendment of 16 March 1983 may have, for Quebec, important legal consequences in that these agreeme

Abstract:

The Canadian health care system – known as “Medicare” or “Assurance-maladie” in Quebec – was created to ensure Canadians free access to health care services and medications. The health system is both publicly funded and administered. It has been built on five principles laid out in the Canada Health Act (1984); these are: Public Administration, Comprehensiveness, Universality, Portability, and Accessibility. In sum, the right to health has been at the organizational core of the Canadian health system. Provinces and territories administer and deliver most of the health services in Canada. This

Abstract:

Genres such as indie (Beal 2009) and hip-hop (Eberhardt & Freeman 2015) feature dialectal traits in English, but whether genres form targets distinct from speech remains unclear. We examine genre effects on phonetic variation in Quebec French music by probing the role of genres (pop, country, alternative, and indie) on laxing and diphthongization, processes characteristic of Quebec French (Walker 1984). Stigma facing formal varieties of Quebec French has vanished within dialect (Kircher 2012), yet remains for processes that vary regionally or socioeconomically (Côté 2012; Côté & Lancie

Background. Health state preferences vary among countries, and country-specific value sets are important in health care reimbursement decisions. When decisions are made at the regional level, regional variation in health state preferences may be important. We propose that shrinkage analysis and Bland-Altman plots can be a helpful way to investigate regional variation. Methods. The presence of regional variation can be investigated by introducing interactions between regions and the regression coefficients in the scoring algorithm. When variation is present, regional scoring algorithms can be d

Certainly, it has produced great tension in a country which constitutionally enshrines the values of “peace, order, and good government.” (The Constitution Act, 1867, UK) Additionally, secession has become an increasingly important tool for the resolution of ethnic conflict [...]
