Journal articles on the topic 'Sikh Canadians'

Arguably, two aspects of national identity that Canadians are most recognized for are hockey and multiculturalism; yet, few scholars have examined the implications of Canada’s mythological and nostalgic hockey culture for immigrants from various racial and ethnic backgrounds. This analysis uses Twitter to gain uncensored insight into how Hockey Night in Canada Punjabi (HNIC Punjabi) is received by the general Canadian public. It is argued that when people of color become visible in traditionally white arenas (such as hockey) some Canadians are flummoxed by the sight of multiculturalism, while not necessarily being opposed to the idea of it. Laughter was also observed as a common reaction to HNIC Punjabi; consequently, despite the promise of a multicultural society, Punjabi Sikh Canadians are situated as paradoxical to hockey in Canada.

Background South Asian Canadians are at high risk of developing cardiovascular disease and diabetes. Consumer-oriented health information technology may help mitigate lifestyle risk factors and improve chronic disease self-management. Objective This study aims to explore the prevalence, patterns, and predictors of the use of the internet, digital devices, and apps for health purposes as well as preferences for future use of eHealth support in South Asian Canadians. Methods We conducted a cross-sectional, mixed-mode survey in a convenience sample of 831 South Asian adults recruited at faith-based gathering places, health care settings, and community events in Edmonton, Alberta, in 2014. The 706 responders (mean age 47.1, SD 17.6 years; n=356, 50.4% female; n=509, 72.1% Sikh) who provided complete sociodemographic information were included in the analysis, and the denominators varied based on the completeness of responses to each question. Multivariate logistic regression was used to determine sociodemographic and health status predictors of internet use, being a web-based health information seeker, smartphone or tablet ownership, health app use, and willingness to use various modes of eHealth support. Results Of all respondents, 74.6% (527/706) were internet users and 47.8% (336/703) were web-based health information seekers. In addition, 74.9% (527/704) of respondents owned a smartphone or tablet and 30.7% (159/518) of these had a health and fitness app. Most internet users (441/527, 83.7%) expressed interest in using ≥1 mode of eHealth support. Older age, being female, having less than high school education, preferring written health information in languages other than English, and lacking confidence in completing medical forms predicted lack of internet use. Among internet users, factors that predicted web-based health information seeking were being female, use of the internet several times per day, being confident in completing medical forms, and preferring health information in English. Predictors of not owning a smartphone or tablet were being older, preferring health information in languages other than English, having less than high school education, living in Canada for <5 years, having a chronic health condition, and having diabetes. Increasing age was associated with lower odds of having a health app. Preferring health information in languages other than English consistently predicted lower interest in all modes of eHealth support. Conclusions eHealth-based chronic disease prevention and management interventions are feasible for South Asian adults, but digital divides exist according to language preference, education, age, sex, confidence in completing medical forms, and number of years lived in Canada. Community-based, culturally tailored strategies targeting these factors are required to address existing divides and increase the uptake of credible web-based and app-based resources for health purposes.

Several North American Sikh millennials are creating online values-based fashion enterprises that seek to encourage creative expression, self-determined representation, gender equality, and ethical purchasing, while steeped in the free market economy. Exploring the innovative ways young Sikhs of the diaspora express their values and moral positions in the socio-economic sphere, one finds many fashionistas, artists, and activists who are committed to making Sikh dress accessible and acceptable in the fashion industry. Referred to as “Sikh chic”, the five outwards signs of the Khalsa Sikh—the “5 ks”—are frequently used as central motifs for these businesses (Reddy 2016). At the same time, many young Sikh fashion entrepreneurs are designing these items referencing contemporary style and social trends, from zero-waste bamboo kangas to hipster stylized turbans. Young Sikh women are challenging mainstream representations of a masculine Sikh identity by creating designs dedicated to celebrating Khalsa Sikh females. Drawing on data collected through digital and in-person ethnographic research including one-on-one interviews, participant observation, and social media, as well as fashion magazines and newsprint, I explore the complexities of this phenomenon as demonstrated by two Canadian-based Sikh fashion brands, Kundan Paaras and TrendySingh, and one Canadian-based Sikh female artist, Jasmin Kaur.

Abstract The communal meal, or langar, served in Sikh places of worship is central to Sikh religious thought and practice, both in India and in Canada. This paper introduces readers to the characteristics and principles embedded in Sikh langars, and to some distinctive Canadian elements of this food-centered marker of Sikh religious life, including internal community building and outreach activities. The authors incorporate data from their fieldwork, conducted in India and across Canada over the last three years.

Immigration is changing the religious landscape in Canada. It is estimated that 69% of the Canadian population growth is accounted for by immigration, and this is expected to increase to 90% in 2050. In addition, immigrants participate in institutional religion at higher rates than the Canadian-born. While the Muslim, Hindu, Sikh, and Buddhist populations are growing rapidly due to immigration, nearly half of all immigrants claim some type of Christian affiliation. There are also many non-religious immigrants. In this article, we look at the growth and decline of immigration flows, service attendance, and switching/retention to show which religious groups in Canada are benefitting from immigration.

This article examines newspaper articles and opinion pieces related to the 1989 and 1990 case of allowing RCMP (Royal Canadian Mounted Police) officers to wear turbans as part of their formal uniform. Many of those opposed to allowing for this change in RCMP policy demonstrate a sense of an assumed national identity that tends to label immigrants and people from non-European backgrounds as un-Canadian. Once the federal government approved this change in RCMP policy, some of the groups that opposed it attempted to bring it to the Supreme Court of Canada. The argument they made was one for closed secularism. The policy change, however, and the impact it had on Baltej Singh Dhillon, the first Sikh RCMP officer who became an officer and was allowed to wear his turban the results of which present a case for open secularism.

A folk devil has the ability to elicit a community’s fear over crime. Notorious late gangster, Bindy Johal, occupies this position as his legacy stirs the social anxieties over gang violence by some in the Punjabi-Sikh community in Western Canada. A competing narrative of Johal’s legacy has emerged, which frames him in a more sympathetic light, and as an individual who overcame systemic racial barriers that subordinated the masculinity of South Asian men in British Columbia. Based on interviews with 34 authorities in the Lower Mainland of British Columbia, and drawing attention to his status as both a folk devil and hero, the discussion reveals two dueling narratives framing his legacy. The overall effect of these contradictory narratives is the overshadowing of racism, class oppression and a regional history within Sikh extremist movements that illustrate why gang involvement may appeal to some disenfranchised boys and men in the Indo-Canadian community.

There are large South Asian settlements in the larger Vancouver region of British Columbia in Canada and in Northern and Central California (from Yuba City to Fresno) in the United States. While the early migration patterns of Sikhs and Hindus to these two areas were similar, they subsequently diverged and the South Asian settlements in the two regions now exhibit very different profiles. This resource paper summarizes and analyzes the literature on factors shaping the migration, settlement, and incorporation patterns of Asian immigrants in these two regions. I argue that the parallels in early South Asian migration patterns to the North American West Coast were due to similarities in the economic and social profile of these regions, Canadian and U.S. policies toward Asian immigrants, and easy movement between Canada and the United States. The divergence between the two regions took place over time largely as an outcome of changes in regional characteristics (e.g., the development of Silicon Valley), differences in the group characteristics and networks of Sikhs and Hindus, and an increasing divergence in Canadian and U.S. immigration regulations (e.g., differences in family reunification, refugee, and H1-B visa policies). The final section discusses how these settlement patterns have led to differences in the identity formation and sociopolitical incorporation of Sikhs and Hindus in the two regions.

Abstract This article discusses the performance of Punjabi folk dances bhangra and giddha in some Canadian contexts. After introducing a notion of Punjabi identity, the article provides a brief description of these dance forms, their agrarian origins and their gendered natures, as well as of the types of events at which these dances are performed among Canadian Punjabis, and specifically, Jat Sikhs. I argue that not only do these dances express and maintain Punjabi identity in diasporic contexts, but that these identities refer to a Jat “rural imaginary” that is actively constructed through dance and music in response to the displacement of urban and transnational migration. This rural imaginary is usurped by bhangra’s increasing Westernization and popularity in the non-Jat South Asian diaspora, thus raising challenges to Jat centrality, meaning, and identity.

This article compares foreign born Hindus, Sikhs and Muslims to native born white Christians on four economic outcomes in two nations: Britain and Canada. For Canada, our data come from the 1991 Census, for Britain from the Fourth National Survey of Ethnic Minorities (1994). Theory and research lead us to predict that, ceteris paribus, non-Christians will fare better in Canada on three of the four outcomes. In the main, however, this expectation does not hold up. Compared to their British counterparts, Canada's Muslims fare less well on labor force participation and Canada's Hindus and Sikhs less well on unemployment. Compared to their Canadian counterparts, British Muslims fare less well on unemployment. On occupation and earnings, we detect no cross-national differences. To explain the paucity of cross-national disparities, we draw on Reitz's argument that Canada's reputation as an attractive immigrant destination has been exaggerated. To explain the few differences we do find, we emphasize cross-national differences in religious discrimination and our inability to control adequately for differences in sending countries.

In this article, Elizabeth Marshall and Kelleen Toohey use critical discourse analysis to examine educators' efforts to incorporate funds of knowledge from the communities and families of Punjabi Sikh students in a Canadian elementary school. Using MP3 players, students first recorded and then translated their grandparents' stories of life in India into picture books to serve as cultural resources in their school community. In retelling their grandparents' stories, students drew on a multiplicity of ancestral,globalized, and Western discourses in their textual and pictorial illustrations. The authors examine what happens when the funds of knowledge that students bring to school contradict normative, Western understandings of what is appropriate for children and how school might appropriately respond to varying community perceptions of good and evil.

SUMMARY Diachronic nasalization in Portuguese is realized as three sound changes; one of these is analyzed here, deletion of AN/ within the word (NP2). Most of the literature pertinent to this topic concerns phonetics and only one detailed theory of the sound change has been proposed (Nobiling 1903). Viana's phonetic analysis (1892) of syllable-final nasals has been regarded by many as doctrine but instrumental analyses reveal a more complex situation. In this paper a diachronic theory for European Portuguese is proposed which links /-N/ deletion to gliding; this theory is supported by certain changes in Gascon and Canadian French. RÉSUMÉ La nasalisation diachronique en portugais se manifeste en trois changements phonologiques; dans cet article, seulement le cas de la chute des consonnes nasales à l'intérieur du mot (NP2) est analysée. La plupart des études consacrées à ce sujet concerne la phonétique et seulement une théorie en détail du NP2 a été proposée par Nobiling (1903). Beaucoup ont regardé l'étude phonétique de Viana (1892) de ce cas comme doctrine mais la phonétique instrumentale révèle une situation plus complexe. On propose ici une théorie diachronique pour le portugais européen que lie la chute des nasales à l'insertion des semi-consonnes; cette interprétation s'est confirmée par certains changements des nasales du gascon et du français canadien. ZUSAMMENFASSUNG Die historische Nasalierung im Portugiesischen zeigt sich in der Form von drei phonologischen Veränderungen; eine davon, nämlich der Schwund der nasalen Konsonanten im Wortinnern (NP2), wird hier behandelt. Die Mehrzahl der diesem Phänomen gewidmeten Studien widmen sich der rein phonetischen Seite; allein Nobiling (1903) schlug eine detaillierte Theorie von NP2 vor. Viele betrachteten Vianas phonetische Studie dJ. 1892 als verläB-liche Lehre hierzu, jedoch ergeben instrumental-phonetische Analysen ein viel komplexeres Bild. Im vorliegenden Aufsatz wird eine Hypothese ftir das euro-pâische Portugiesisch aufgestellt, die den Schwund von /-N/ mit den Halb-vokalen verknupft; eine solche Hypothese wird durch Shnliche Verânderungen im Gaskonischen und kanadischen Französisch gestützt.

ZusammenfassungFür die Behandlung bipolarer Störungen wurden von unterschiedlichen Arbeitsgruppen evidenzbasierte Leitlinien herausgegeben, bei denen die verschiedenen diagnostischen Untergruppen sowie die verschiedenen Behandlungsphasen berücksichtigt werden. Besonders aktuell und umfassend sind die Leitlinien des Canadian Network for Mood and Anxiety Treatments (CANMAT). Die dort gegebenen Empfehlungen begründen sich nicht nur auf den Evidenzgrad mit der jeweiligen Substanz, sondern beziehen auch Daten zur Sicherheit und Verträglichkeit sowie allgemeine klinische Erfahrungen mit ein. In diesem Beitrag werden die Empfehlungen des CANMAT aus den Leitlinien 2005 und dem Update 2007 zusammengefasst und kurz kommentiert.

A holoptychiid fish is described from the Lower Devonian of Arctic Canada. The new form is distinct from other holoptychiids by the presence of a large supraorbital bone and a boomerang-shaped tabular. <i>Nasogaluakus</i> n. gen. is the oldest and most primitive holoptychiid based on a phylogenetic analysis of porolepiforms and their closest relatives. The sequence of the genera corresponds to their stratigraphic appearance. <br><br> Ein Holoptychiide aus dem Unterdevon der kanadischen Arktis wird beschrieben.

The Indian Diaspora is a wonderful place to write from, and I am lucky to be a part of it-Kiran Desai
 Indian Women writers like Kiran Desai, BhartiMukherjeee, Chitra Banerjee, Jumpa Lahiri all are dealing with the issues of Diasporic Consciousness, dislocation, displacement and immigrant experiences in their writings. Shauna Singh Baldwin, a Canadian-American writer of Indian origin is one of the most significant writers of Indian diaspora writing experiences of Sikh community during partition of Indian and its aftermath. In molding the personality of Shauna Singh Baldwin, the concept of nation, home and belongingness to the place of origin finds an important role. She has adopted and assimilated the elements of both home and host cultures and that is clearly revealed through her writings. As she says: “I wrote because I needed to make sense of my world by describing it. Eventually the stories weren't about me and my experience, but about situations, problems, feelings, metaphors and images that just refuse to go away.”

The members of the "Groupe des couches minces" have been studying the application of hydrogenated amorphous-silicon to solar cells for a number of years. We review here some of the results and progress in our work since the First Canadian Semiconductor Technology Conference. These include, first, quantification of the dependence of film characteristics on the deposition parameters such as DC bias, Ar:SiH4 ratio, temperature, and gas flow for the capacitive reactor geometry used; second, construction of a time-of-flight spectrometer permitting mass resolution of elastically scattered or recoiling nuclei and the chemical-composition profiling of multilayer device structures; third, electro-optical characterization of doped and undoped a-Si:H films; fourth, fabrication of 3-mm2 MIS diodes having efficiencies of 5.3% and short-circuit currents of 22 mA/cm2; fifth, development of theoretical models for the behavior of Schottky structures; sixth, development of a new technique for doping a-Si:H by the controlled evaporation of group III or V metals into an RF plasma discharge of silane and argon; and finally, construction of p–i, n–i, and p–i–n solar cells using the novel doping procedure.

ZusammenfassungIm Jahr 2017 erstellten die Mitglieder der AG „obere HWS“ der Sektion „Wirbelsäule“ der DGOU in einem Konsensusprozess mit 4 Sitzungen Empfehlungen zur Diagnostik und Therapie oberer Halswirbelsäulenverletzungen unter Berücksichtigung der aktuellen Literatur. Der folgende Artikel beschreibt die Empfehlung für Frakturen des Atlasrings. Etwa 10% aller HWS-Verletzungen betreffen den Atlas. Die Diagnostik zielt im Wesentlichen auf die Detektion der Verletzung sowie die Beurteilung der Gelenkflächen hinsichtlich einer Lateralisationstendenz der Atlasmassive. Zur Klassifikation haben sich die Gehweiler-Klassifikation und ergänzend die Dickman-Klassifikation bewährt. Zum primären klinischen Screening hat sich die Canadian C-Spine Rule bewährt. Bildgebendes Verfahren der Wahl bei klinischem Verdacht auf eine Atlasverletzung ist die CT. Die MRT dient der Beurteilung der Integrität des Lig. transversum atlantis bei vorderer und hinterer Bogenfraktur. Die Indikation zur Gefäßdarstellung sollte großzügig gestellt werden. Viele Atlasfrakturen können konservativ in einer Zervikalorthese behandelt werden. Eine OP-Indikation ist gegeben bei bestehender oder drohender massiver Gelenkinkongruenz oder -instabilität, die am häufigsten bei Gehweiler-IIIB-Frakturen oder bei Gehweiler-IV-Frakturen vorliegt. Operative Standardtherapie ist die dorsale atlantoaxiale Fixation, entweder in transartikulärer Technik oder mittels Fixateur interne. Insbesondere bei jüngeren Patienten sollte die Möglichkeit einer isolierten Atlasosteosynthese geprüft werden. Dislozierte Gehweiler-IV-Frakturen mit sagittaler Spaltbildung können auch probatorisch im Halofixateur unter Ausnutzung der Ligamentotaxis behandelt werden; eine engmaschige Dislokationskontrolle ist obligat. Im Falle einer sekundären Dislokation ist auch hier eine operative Stabilisierung indiziert. Bei Mitbeteiligung des okzipitozervikalen Gelenks ist eine Einbeziehung des Okziputs in die Instrumentierung notwendig.

Understanding Music Care in Canadian Facility-Based Long Term CareAbstractMusic has been used in Canadian long-term care (LTC) facilities which, for decades, have relied on programs, technology and music therapy to deliver live music through a variety of forums. Current confluences in long term care (LTC), in particular, a change in demographic and a shift in philosophy towards person-centered care, call for a renewed understanding of music in LTC and specifically how it is delivered. In this mixed method study, 7 emergent factors influence music care delivery from a Phase one qualitative study in 5 Ontario LTC homes form the basis of a Phase two; a pan-Canadian survey in 50 LTC homes. Results illustrate several key aspects of understanding music care in Canadian LTC facilities as well as illuminate some of the incongruencies of music care delivery in the Canadian LTC context. Recommendations to LTC leadership for imminent next steps are posited.Keywords: long term care, culture change, quality of care, quality of life, music careSpanishMúsica se ha venido utilizando durante décadas en Residencias para personas mayores y asistidas canadienses, que han utilizado distintos programas tecnológicos y musicoterapéuticos para ofrecer música en vivo en distintas oportunidades. La situación actual en cuanto a cambio demográfico y enfoque de los cuidados centrados en la persona, nos obliga a repensar el rol de la música en estas residencias y específicamente cómo se ofrece. Esta investigación analiza 7 factores emergentes que influyen en cómo se ejecutan estos programas: fase 1 consite en un estudio cualitativo en 5 residencias en Ontario;fase 2 consiste en una encuesta en 50 residencias a lo largo de Canadá. Los resultados ilustran varios aspectos clave para entender la el tratamiento con música en residencias canadienses, e iluminan algunas de sus incongruencias en este contexto. Finalmente, se ofrecen recomendaciones a tener en cuenta.

Les tendances actuelles dans le soin longue durée (SLD), en particulier, le changement démographique et le changement de paradigme philosophique envers le soin centré sur la personne, appellent à une nouvelle compréhension de la musique utilisée dans les soins longue durée, et plus specialement de la manière dont elle est adressée. Dans cette méthode de recherche mixte, 7 facteurs émergents influençant l’apport du soin par la musique, issus d’une première phase d’étude qualitative réalisée dans 5 maisons de soins de longue durée en Ontario ont constitué la base d’une deuxième phase : une étude pancanadienne dans 50 unités de soins de longue durée. Les résultats illustrent plusieurs aspects clés de la compréhension du soin par la musique dans les maisons de soins de longue durée canadien, ainsi qu’ils éclairent certaines incongruités dans l’apport de soin par la musique dans ce même contexte. Des recommandations à l’attention du personnel encadrant des services de SLD ont été présentées pour une prochaine étape.Mots clés : soins de longue durée, changement de culture, qualité des oisn, qualité de vie, soin par la musiqueGermanMusik in der stationären Langzeitpflege in Canada.Abstract:Musik wird in Langzeitversorgungseinrichtungen (LTD) genutzt, die seit Jahrzehnten auf Programme, Technologie und Musiktherapie vertrauen, um Live-Musik in verschiedenen Foren zu übermitteln. Der gegenwärtige Zustrom von Mensche in die Langzeitpflege (LTD), insbesondere die demographische Veränderung und die in der Philosophie der personenzentrierten Pflege, erfordern ein verändertes Verständnis von Musik in den LTDs, und da vor allem wie diese übermittelt wird. In dieser mixed-method Studie zeigten sich 7 Faktoren, die die musikalische Versorgung beeinflussen: ausgehend von einer 1 qualitativen Studie in 5 LTC Einrichtungen in Ontario gab es eine 2. Studie: einen landesweiten Überblick über 50 canadische LTC Einrichtungen. Die Ergebnisse zeigen ebenso mehrere grundlegende Aspekte, Musikversorgung in canadischen LTC Einrichtungen zu verstehen als auch einige Unstimmigkeiten in der Musikversorgung im canadischen LTC Kontext. Es folgen Vorschläge an die Verantwortlichen der LTC für wichtige nächste Schritte.Keywords: Langzeitpflege, kultureller Wechsel, Versorgungsqualität, Lebensqualität, Versorgung mit MusikJapanese要旨音楽は、カナダの長期ケア施設（ＬＴＣ）において活用されており、数十年もの間、音楽プログラムやテクノロジー、そして音楽療法が様々な形態を通じて生の音楽を定常してきた。現在の長期ケア施設における潮流、特に人口年齢の変容とパーソンセンタード理論へのシフトによって、長期ケア施設における音楽の理解が見直されており、具体的にどの活用法について注目されている。本研究は方法を混合させたもので、第1段階ではオンタリオの５施設における質的研究から7つの要素が出現した。さらに第2段階では、前段階を基に汎カナダ的な調査を50の長期ケア施設にて行った。結果として、カナダの長期ケア施設における音楽的ケアを理解するためのいくつかの重要な要素を検証することができた。また同時に、カナダの施設状況において音楽的ケアを行うことの不適合な点についても調査することができた。今後の展望として、長期的ケアにおいては、差し迫ったリーダーシップが求められている、ということが推察される。キーワード：長期ケア、文化的変容、ケアの質、生活の質（ＱＯＬ）音楽的ケア Chinese音樂的使用在加拿大長期照護(LTC)機構裡已有數十年的時間，透過音樂節目、現代科技及音樂治療來提供現場音樂。目前長期照護的主流在人口結構的改變及以人為本的照護理念趨勢之下，對於音樂如何在長期照護機構裡被運用有了新的認識。在這個混合方法研究中，研究者首先在五個安大略省長期照護之家進行第一階段的質性研究，並生成7項影響音樂照護運用的因素，接著在50間泛加拿大長期照護之家進行調查。結果顯示出對加拿大長期照護機構裡的音樂照護狀況的了解，同時也闡明了一些不一致的關鍵層面，並對長期照護領導者的下一步提出緊迫的建議。

Background:Intravenous tissue plasminogen activator (IV tPA) has been studied primarily in patients over age 50. We sought to describe baseline differences in adult patients ≤50 years-old taken from a large prospective cohort of acute stroke patients treated with intravenous tPA (IV tPA) and to determine whether outcomes differed for this population.Methods:Data (n = 1120) prospectively collected from the Canadian Alteplase for Stroke Effectiveness Study (CASES) were reviewed and patients aged ≤50 years-old (n=99) were compared with those aged >50 years (n=1021) with regards to baseline characteristics, symptomatic intracerebral haemorrhage (sICH), functional outcome at 90 days and death.Results:Nine percent of patients were ≤50 years-old. Among patients aged ≤50 years, 40.4% were women and median age was 42 ± 6.1 years (range 20 to 50). They had significantly more current cigarette use but fewer other vascular risk factors than older patients (p<0.05) and their baseline median NIHSS score was lower (13 versus 15, P=0.001). Although this group was more likely to have a favourable 90-day outcome, multivariable regression confirmed that age ≤50 years, while independently associated with a decreased risk of death (RR 0.36, 95% CI 0.14 to 0.95), was not itself predictive of favourable 90-day outcome or decreased risk of sICH.Conclusions:Adult patients ≤50 years-old had fewer medical co-morbidities and a modestly lower baseline median NIHSS score than their older counterparts. Age ≤50 years was independently associated with a decreased risk of death but not with favourable outcome or risk of sICH.

ABSTRACT:Background:A 1995 National Institute of Neurological Disorders (NINDS) study found benefit for intravenous tissue plasminogen activator (tPA) in acute ischemic stroke (AIS). The symptomatic intracranial hemorrhage (SICH) rate in the NINDS study was 6.4%, which may be deterring some physicians from using this medication.Methods:Starting December 1, 1998, patients with AIS in London, Ontario were treated according to NINDS criteria with one major exception; those with approximately greater than one-third involvement of the idealized middle cerebral artery (MCA) territory on neuroimaging were excluded from treatment. The method used to estimate involvement of one-third MCA territory involvement bears the acronym ICE and had a median kappa value of 0.80 among five physicians. Outcomes were compared to the NINDS study.Results:Between December 1, 1998 and February 1, 2000, 30 patients were treated. Compared to the NINDS study, more London patients were treated after 90 minutes (p<0.00001) and tended to be older. No SICH was observed. Compared to the treated arm of the NINDS trial, fewer London patients were dead or severely disabled at three months (p=0.04). Compared to the placebo arm of the trial, more patients made a partial recovery at 24 hours (p=0.02), more had normal outcomes (p=0.03) and fewer were dead or severely disabled at three months (p=0.004).Conclusions:The results of the NINDS study were closely replicated and, in some instances, improved upon in this small series of Canadian patients, despite older age and later treatment. These findings suggest that imaging exclusion criteria may optimize the benefits of tPA.

ZusammenfassungIm Rahmen eines Konsensusprozesses der Arbeitsgruppe „subaxiale HWS-Verletzungen“ der Sektion Wirbelsäule der DGOU erfolgte in 4 Sitzungen im Jahre 2016 die Erstellung der vorliegenden Therapieempfehlungen unter Berücksichtigung der vorhandenen Literatur. Therapieziele sind eine dauerhaft stabile, schmerzfreie Halswirbelsäule und der Schutz vor sekundären neurologischen Schäden unter größtmöglicher Berücksichtigung der Beweglichkeit und des Wirbelsäulenprofils. Aufgrund der Praktikabilität und der guten Evaluation hinsichtlich Reliabilität sollte die AOSpine-Klassifikation für subaxiale HWS-Verletzungen für die Klassifikation zur Anwendung kommen. Es wird die Canadian C-Spine Rule als klinischer Algorithmus zur Entscheidung hinsichtlich der Notwendigkeit einer bildgebenden Diagnostik empfohlen. Bei gemäß dieser Regel anamnestisch oder klinisch hohem Verdacht auf eine strukturelle, instabile Verletzung ist die Spiral-CT der HWS Verfahren der Wahl. Die konventionelle Röntgendiagnostik in 2 Ebenen bleibt Fällen vorbehalten, in denen kein „gefährlicher Unfallmechanismus“ vorliegt. Die Indikation für die MRT der HWS wird vor allem bei nicht erklärbaren neurologischen Symptomen, bei geplanter geschlossener Reposition und dorsaler Stabilisierung und zum Ausschluss vermuteter diskoligamentärer Verletzungen empfohlen, wobei hier je nach Befundkonstellation eine abgestufte Dringlichkeit gilt. Die CT-Angiografie wird bei höhergradigen Facettengelenkverletzungen oder bei Vorliegen vertebrobasilärer Symptome empfohlen. Die konventionelle Funktionsdiagnostik wird ausschließlich in Form der ärztlich geführten dynamischen Bildwandlerdurchleuchtung bei persistierendem Verdacht auf eine instabile Verletzung empfohlen. Die therapeutische Strategie richtet sich primär nach der Verletzungsmorphologie, die in der AOSpine-Klassifikation beschrieben wird. A0-Frakturen sollten konservativ behandelt werden. A1- und A2-Frakturen sollten meistens konservativ behandelt werden, wobei die segmentale Kyphose in Einzelfällen eine OP-Indikation bedingen kann. A3-Frakturen stellen in den meisten Fällen eine OP-Indikation dar, in Einzelfällen ist eine konservative Behandlung möglich. A4-Frakturen sowie die B- und C-Verletzungen bedürfen einer operativen Therapie. Die ventrale Plattenspondylodese mit interkorporeller Abstützung (bei Berstungskomponente durch Korporektomie und Wirbelkörperersatz) wird für die meisten Verletzungen empfohlen, eine rein dorsale oder zusätzlich dorsale Stabilisierung kann bei besonderer Befundkonstellation möglich oder sogar notwendig sein. In diesen Fällen ist die Instrumentierung mit Massa-lateralis-Schrauben zumeist ausreichend; bei Anwendung von Pedikelschrauben in Höhe C III – C VI wird ein Navigationssystem empfohlen. Bei Vorliegen einer ankylosierenden Grunderkrankung (M3-Modifikator) wird hingegen die dorsale, langstreckige Stabilisierung favorisiert.

Music care is a developing approach to care that allows the therapeutic principles of music to inform caring practices in both formal healthcare settings and community or home-based contexts, and to create an integral role in developing more relational and person-centered cultures in caregiving. A significant part of the music care approach is a conceptual framework describing 10 domains of delivery. This article is the third in a three-part series on the theory and applications of a music care framework. Music is increasingly being recognized in health care communities as an effective psychosocial and rehabilitative intervention, increasing many aspects of quality of life. Currently, there is little standardization as to how music may best be integrated into individual care goals and care settings, though a growing body of literature supports the important impact of music in health care. It is this absence of standardization that has led the authors to develop a music care conceptual framework, so the varying scopes of practice that integrate music can be distinguished from one another and new possibilities for optimizing music in care can be identified. While the first study in this series examined how music care is understood in Canadian long term care facilities (1), the purpose of the second study explored how music could be optimized in complex continuing care environments, using one such facility in Ontario, Canada, as an exploration site (2). The 10 Domains of Music Care presented in this paper can be used as both a research tool and a practical, actionable tool for healthcare providers, managers, and decision makers. The paper discusses the 10 domains of music care delivery, need for a music care conceptual framework, and the implications and applications the framework provides. (1) Foster, B., Bartel, L.

La música está siendo reconocida de manera creciente en las comunidades de atención de salud como una efectiva intervención psicosocial y biomédica, mejorando varios aspectos de la calidad de vida. Actualmente en Canadá hay muy poca estandarización sobre cómo la música puede ser integrada en los objetivos asistenciales y en los settings de atención en salud. También hay un vacío en la regulación de lenguajes y competencias de la práctica para encontrar los tipos de asistencia musical que se brindará, aunque la creciente literatura sostiene la importancia del impacto de la música en la atención de salud. Contar con un marco conceptual para el entendimiento de la asistencia musical y cómo es brindada es beneficioso y sería una herramienta oportuna para direccionar estas discrepancias. Una parte significativa del abordaje de asistencia musical es el marco conceptual que describe diez dominios de servicio. Este artículo es el tercero en una serie de tres partes sobre la teoría y las aplicaciones del marco de la asistencia musical. La música está siendo reconocida de manera creciente en las comunidades de atención de salud como una efectiva intervención psicosocial y biomédica , incrementando varios aspectos de la calidad de vida. Existe poca estandarización sobre cómo la música puede ser integrada de la mejor manera en los objetivos individuales y en los settings de atención. Es esta ausencia en la estandarización la que ha llevado a los autores a desarrollar un marco conceptual para la asistencia musical, así la variedad competencias de la práctica que integra la música pueden ser distinguidas unas de otras y pueden identificarse nuevas posibilidades de optimizar la asistencia musical. El primer estudio de esta serie examina la optimización de la asistencia musical en instituciones de cuidado prolongado en Canadá, el propósito del segundo estudio fue explorar cómo la música puede ser optimizada en ambientes de cuidado complejo continuo, usando una institución en Ontario, Canadá como sitio de exploración.Los diez dominios de asistencia musical en el presente estudio pueden ser empleados tanto como herramienta de investigación y práctica como herramienta de acción para proveedores de salud, managers, y quienes toman decisiones. Este paper analiza los diez dominios de servicio de la asistencia musical, la necesidad de un marco conceptual de la asistencia musical, como así también las implicancias y aplicaciones que este marco provee.

Musik wird zusehends mehr in Gesundheitsfürsorgeeinrichtungen als eine effektive psychosoziale und biomedizinische Intervention anerkannt, die viele Aspekte der Lebensqualität (QoL) erhöht.Zur Zeit gibt es in Canada eigentlich keine Standardisierung, wie Musik am besten in individuelle Pflegeziele und Pflegesettings zu integrieren ist. Auch gibt es eine Lücke, in Praxisstilen und –bereichen, um Modelle von Leistungen der Musikpflege einzuordnen, obwohl eine wachsende Anzahl von Literatur den wichtigen Einfluss von Musik in der Gesundheitsfürsorge unterstützt. Ein konzeptueller Rahmen, um Musikpflege zu verstehen und wie sie einzuordnen ist, ist ein nützliches und aktuelles Mittel, um diese Diskrepanz anzugehen. Ein signifikanter Teil in dem Musikpflegeansatz ist ein konzeptueller Rahmen, der zehn Bereiche der Anwendung beschreibt. Dieser Artikel ist der dritte in einer dreiteiligen Serie über Theorie und Anwendung eines Rahmens der Musikpflege. Musik wird zusehends mehr in Gesundheitsfürsorgeeinrichtungen als eine effektive psychosoziale und rehabilitative Intervention anerkannt, die viele Aspekte der Lebensqualität (QoL) erhöht. Es gibt wenig Standardisierung, wie Musik am besten in individuelle Pflegeziele und Pflegesettings zu integrieren ist. Weil es eben keine Standardisierung gibt, haben sich die Autoren vorgenommen, einen konzeptuellen Rahmen für Musikpflege zu entwickeln, damit die verschiedenen Praxisbereiche voneinander unterschieden und neue Möglichkeiten, die Musikpflege zu optimieren, bestimmt werden können. Während die erste Studie dieser Serie die Optimierung der Musikpflege in Langzeiteinrichtungen in Canada untersuchte [1], war der Zweck für die zweite Studie zu untersuchen, wie Musik in komplexen Dauerpflegeeinrichtungen optimiert werden könnte, wobei eine dieser Einrichtung in Ontario, Canada als Untersuchungsort diente [2].Die Zehn Bereiche der Musikpflege, die in dieser Studie präsentiert werden, können sowohl als Forschungstool wie auch als durchführbares, einklagbares Tool für Gesundheitsfürsorger, Manager und Entscheidungsträger dienen. Dieser Artikel diskutiert die zehn Bereiche der Anwendung der Musikpflege, die Notwendigkeit eines konzeptuellen Rahmens für Musikpflege, und die Zusammenhänge und Anwendungen, die dieser Rahmen bereitstellt.Keywords: Musikpflege; personenzentrierte Pflege, Musiktherapie, zehn Bereiche der MusikpflegeItalianParte 3 di 3: Dieci Domini di Cura con la Musica: Un Modulo per Introdurre la Musica nei Sistemi Sanitari CanadesiLa cura con la musica è un approccio che si sta sviluppando nella cura che permette ai principi terapeutici della musica di informare le practiche sia nell’ambiente sanitaria formale che in contesti communitari o delle pratiche fatte da casa, e creare un ruolo di integrazione per uno sviluppo delle culture piú relazionale e piú incentrato su una cura sulla persona. La musica è sempre piú riconosciuta nelle comunitá di assistenza sanitaria come un efficace intervento psicosociale e biomedico in aumento. Attualmente in Canada c’è poca standardizzazione su come la musica puó essere meglio integrata I obbiettivi di cura individuali e in ambiti di cura. C’è anche un vuoto nel linguaggio regolamentato o in ambiti di pratica per la localizzazione di tipi di cura con la musica, anche se c’è una crescente materiale di letteratura che sostiene l’importanza della musica nella cura sanitaria. Un modulo concettuale per la comprenzione della cura con la musica e come viene effettuata è uno stumento utile e tempestivo per affrontare questa discrepanza. Una parte simportante del metodo di cura con la musica è un modulo concettuale che descrive dieci domini di consegna. Questo articolo è il terzo di una serie in tre parti sulla teoria e le applicazioni di un modulo di cura con la musica. La musica è sempre piú riconosciuta nella comunità di assistenza sanitaria come un efficace intervento psicosociale e riabilitativo, aumentando molti aspetti della qualità della vita. C’è poca standardizzazione su come la musica può essere meglio integrata in obbiettivi di cura individuali e ambienti sanitari. Mentre il primo studio di questa serie ha esaminato l’ottimizzazione delle cure con la musica nelle strutture di assistenza a lungo termine Canadesi [[i]], lo scopo del secondo studio ha eslorato come la musica può essere ottimizzata in complessi ambienti di assistenza continua, utilizzando un impianto I Ontario, Canada, come sito di esclorazione. (2)I Dieci Domini di Cura con la Musica presentato in questo studio può essere utilizzato sia come strumento di ricerca che come stumento pratico, come strumento operativo per gli operatori sanitari, manager e coloro che fanno le decisioni. L’articolo discute I dieci domini della cura con la musica, il bisogno di un modulo concettuale della cura con la musica, e le implicazioni e applicazioni che procura il modulo.Parole Chiave: cura con la musica, cura sulla persona, musicoterapia, dieci domini della cura con la musica Chinese音樂照護是一種發展中的照護方式，能夠讓音樂的治療原則運用在正規的醫療照護場所以及社區或居家照護，並在發展重視關係、以人為本的照護文化中扮演不可或缺的角色。以音樂作為心理社會以及生理醫學的有效處遇方式，在健康照護領域逐漸被認可，且能增加各層面的生活品質。最近加拿大正針對如何將音樂最佳的在照護場域中融入個人照護目標制定標準。目前音樂在照護場域的運用缺少正規的詞彙和定位音樂照護提供的實踐範圍。透過越來越多的文獻支持音樂在照護場域的重要影響，藉由此一概念性的架構來了解音樂照護，並以此有益而即時的工具來解決矛盾。 在音樂照護方法中一個很重要的部分為論述十種可提供的照護領域的概念架構。本文是三篇音樂照護概念理論與應用系列文章當中的第三篇。在健康照護領域，音樂逐漸被認定為是有效的物理與復健介入，並促進多方面的生活品質。關於音樂如何最佳的被融入個人照護目標或照護機構中則幾乎沒有任何標準。由於缺少了這樣的標準，作者於是發展出音樂照護的概念架構，如此一來，便得以區隔各種不同範疇的音樂照護並界定出最理想化的實踐。本系列中的第一篇評估了加拿大長期照護機構音樂照護的理想[[i]]，而第二篇的目的則實地考察加拿大安大略省的一個機構，探討音樂如何最佳的被運用在複合式照護環境中(2)。在最近的研究中所提到的十種音樂照護領域可同時作為研究工具方法，並提供臨床照顧者、經營者以及決策者可用的方法。本文討論了十種音樂照護的領域，對音樂照護概念架構的需求，以及此架構的影響與應用。 JapanesePart 3 of 3: ミュージックケアにおける１０の領域: カナダのヘルスケア施設に音楽を提供する枠組み ミュージックケアは、音楽の治療的原理を用いてヘルスケア施設やコミュニティおよび在宅介護で、療法的活動を行う開発途中のアプローチである。ケア提供において、対人関係を促し、パーソンセンタードな文化を向上させる重要な役割も果たしている。音楽は、心理社会的および生物医学的な介入におけるQOL（生活／生命の質）を向上させる効果的な方法として、ヘルスケア領域で認められるようになってきた。カナダでは、個別ケアの目的と実践の中に音楽がいかに統合され得るかについて、まだ最良の形態で標準化されていない現状がある。また、ヘルスケアにおける音楽の重要な効果に関する文献は顕著に増加しているものの、ミュージックケアの実践に関する用語や介護分類を表す言語が欠けているといえるであろう。ミュージックケアを理解しいかに提供するかという概念的枠組みを考えることは、上述の不足を 解決するためにも、有益である。ミュージックケアアプローチにおける重要な側面として、実践における１０の領域の概念的枠組みがある。本論文は、ミュージックケアの枠組みにおける理論と実践について書いた3部シリーズの第3部である。音楽は、心理社会的およびリハビリテーション医学的な介入におけるQOL（生活／生命の質）を向上させる効果的な方法として、ヘルスケア領域で認められるようになってきた。個別ケアの目的と実践の中に音楽がいかに統合され得るかについて、まだ最良の形態で標準化されていない現状がある。このような標準化の不足をふまえ、筆者達はミュージックケアの概念的枠組みを展開することにし、それによって様々な音楽を活用した活動との違いを明らかにし、ケアにおける音楽の適正な利用法の新しい可能性と役割を検証した。この研究の第1部では、カナダの長期ケア施設におけるミュージックケアの適正な活用法について考察し [[i]]、第2部ではカナダ・オンタリオにおける複合施設という状況下での音楽の適正な応用について探索した(2)。 本研究におけるミュージックケアにおける10の領域は、研究ツールとしても実践および活動ツールとしても、ヘルスケア提供者、管理者など治療を提供することを決定するすべての専門職が応用できるものとなっている。本論では、ミュージックケアの実践における１０の領域、ミュージックケアの概念的枠組みに対するニーズ、そしてこの枠組みが提供する実践と応用について考察する。 キーワード:ミュージックケア、パーソンセンタードケア、音楽療法、ミュージックケアにおける１０の領域 KoreanPart 3 of 3: 음악 치료의 10가지 영역: 캐나다 건강관리 환경에서 음악을 전달할 수 있는 체계음악 치료는 발전하고 있는 치료 접근법이며, 음악 치료 원칙들이 정규 의료 환경과 공동체(커뮤니티) 또는 가정에서 치료 관행을 알리고, 보다 관계 중심적이고 사람 중심적인 치료 문화를 개발하는 데 있어서 중요한 역할을 만들 수 있도록 만들어준다. 의료 사회에서 음악은 점점 효과적인 심리사회적, 생물의학적 중재 방법으로 인식되고 있으며, 삶의 질에 여러 가지 측면들을 증가시키고 있다. 현재 캐나다에는 음악을 개별 치료 목표와 치료 환경에 가장 잘 통합시킬 수 있는 방법에 대한 표준이 거의 없다.비록 점점 더 많은 문헌들이 건강관리에 음악이 끼치는 중요한 영향들을 뒷받침 해주고 있지만, 음악 치료 제공의 유형을 찾아내는 데 필요한 언어 및 관행 범위에는 여전히 빈틈이 있다. 음악 치료와 그것을 전달하는 방법을 이해하기 위한 개념적 토대는 이런 빈틈을 해결하는 데 유익한 도구이다. 음악 치료 접근법의 중요한 부분은 10가지 전달 영역을 설명하는 개념 체계이다. 본 연구는 음악 치료 체계의 이론과 적용에 대한 3가지 시리즈 가운데 세 번째 이다.음악은 의료 사회에서 삶의 질의 여러 측면들을 증진시켜주는 효과적인 심리 사회 및 재활 중재 방법으로 점점 더 인정을 받고 있다. 음악을 개별 치료 목표와 치료 환경에 가장 잘 통합시킬 수 있는 방법에 대한 표준화는 거의 없다. 저자들은 음악을 통합하는 관행의 다양한 범위를 구분하고 치료에 있어서 음악을 최적화시킬 수 있는 새로운 가능성을 확인할 수 있도록 제안한다. 또한 저자들이 음악 치료의 개념적 토대를 개발하게 만든 목적 역시 이러한 표준화의 부재에 대한 대안을 제시하고자 함이다. 이 시리즈 중 첫 번째 연구는 캐나다 장기 요양 시설에서의 음악 치료 최적화에 대해 조사한 반면, 두 번째 연구는 조사 현장으로 캐나다 Ontario에 있는 그런 시설 한 곳을 이용해서 음악을 복합한 지속 치료 환경에서 최적화 시킬 수 있는 방법을 조사했다. 의료 제공자, 관리자들, 의사 결정자들은 본 연구에서 제시한 음악 치료의 10가지 영역을 실용적인 도구이자 연구 도구로 사용할 수 있다. 본 논문은 음악 치료 전달의 10가지 영역, 음악 치료의 개념적 토대 필요성 및 그 토대가 제공하는 의의와 적용점 등에 대해 논의할 것이다. 키워드: 음악돌봄(music care), 사람 중심 치료, 건강 예술, 음악치료, 음악치료의 10가지 영역

Abstract Research into the impact of a politician's sociodemographic profile on vote choice in Westminster-style systems has been hindered by the relative sociodemographic homogeneity of party leaders. Past research has focused mainly on the evaluation of local candidates in the American context, but given that elections in plurality systems are far less candidate-oriented , the evaluation of local candidates tells us little about the prevalence of affinity or discrimination in other contexts. This article investigates the effect of political leaders' ethnicity on political behavior by looking at the case of Jagmeet Singh in Canada, the first federal party leader of color in the country's history. While the literature has shown that the gender of leaders in Canada can matter, little is known about the attitudes of Canadians toward party leaders of color specifically. We are interested in the evaluations of Singh and his party, as well as the shifts in voting intentions between elections in 2015 and 2019. We uncover affinity-based behaviors from individuals who identify as Sikh, as well as a negative reception of Singh's candidacy in Quebec.

Recent work in postcolonial and border criminologies has called for more extensive consideration of the complex temporal and geographic dimensions of penal authority. This article explicates new dimensions of the modern state’s penal authority by analyzing the execution and remembrance of Mewa Singh, a Sikh anticolonial activist convicted of killing Canadian immigration agent William C Hopkinson in Vancouver in 1914. Because Hopkinson was embedded in racial immigration enforcement against Indian populations as well as intelligence gathering about anticolonial activities, his death galvanized fields of penal authority that spanned the imperatives of the Canadian nation-state and the British Empire. Using archival and observational data, this article tracks how the significance of Mewa’s execution has been articulated through these penal fields as well as through recent practices of memorialization undertaken by local Sikh and Indian communities. Insofar as these mnemonic practices frame Mewa’s death as a sacrifice necessitated by state racism, my analysis illuminates the complex temporal parameters of penal fields of authority as well as the manner in which they are conditioned by racial borders and boundaries.

ABSTRACT Chronic wasting disease (CWD) is a prion-related transmissible spongiform encephalopathy of cervids, including deer, elk, reindeer, sika deer, and moose. CWD has been confirmed in at least 26 U.S. states, three Canadian provinces, South Korea, Finland, Norway, and Sweden, with a notable increase in the past 5 years. The continued geographic spread of this disease increases the frequency of exposure to CWD prions among cervids, humans, and other animal species. Since CWD is now an established wildlife disease in North America, proactive steps, where possible, should be taken to limit transmission of CWD among animals and reduce the potential for human exposure.

Abstract Background The South Asian population in Canada is growing and has elevated risk of cardiovascular disease and diabetes. This study sought to adapt an evidence-based community risk assessment and health promotion program for a South Asian community with a large proportion of recent immigrants. The aims were to assess the feasibility of implementing this program and also to describe the rates of cardiometabolic risk factors observed in this sample population. Methods This was a feasibility study adapting and implementing the Community Paramedicine at Clinic (CP@clinic) program for a South Asian population in an urban Canadian community for 14 months. CP@clinic is a free, drop-in chronic disease prevention and health promotion program implemented by paramedics who provide health assessments, health education, referrals and reports to family doctors. All adults attending the recreation centre and temple where CP@clinic was implemented were eligible. Volunteers provided Hindi, Punjabi and Urdu translation. The primary outcome of feasibility was evaluated using quantitative process measures and a qualitative key informant interview. For the secondary outcome of cardiometabolic risk factor, data were collected through the CP@clinic program risk assessments and descriptively analyzed. Results There were 26 CP@clinic sessions held and 71 participants, predominantly male (56.3–84.6%) and South Asian (87.3–92.3%). There was limited participation at the recreation centre (n = 19) but CP@clinic was well-attended when relocated to the local Sikh temple (n = 52). Having the volunteer translators was critical to the paramedics being able to collect the full risk factor data and there were some challenges with ensuring enough volunteers were available to staff each session; as a result, there were missing risk factor data for many participants. In the 26 participants with complete or almost complete risk factor data, 46.5% had elevated BP, 42.3% had moderate/high risk of developing diabetes, and 65.4% had an indicator of cardiometabolic disease. Conclusion Implementing CP@clinic in places of worship is a feasible approach to adapting the program for the South Asian population, however having a funded translator in addition to the volunteers would improve the program. Also, there is substantial opportunity for addressing cardiometabolic risk factors in this population using CP@clinic.


 
 
 
 Fire raised the ire of the Hindu fundamentalists in India after its nationwide release, and Water was watered down in the midst of its filming. Why is a constitutionally secular and historically tolerant country up in arms against its own less-than-sympathetic, yet arguably necessary, self-representations? Is the fire directed against the content of these films, or against its once homegrown and constrained, but now Canadian and “free”, director? Are western pronouncements of a lack of freedom of expression in developing societies like India producing such poetics of disturbance in their waters that a much needed self-appraisal is turning into a chauvinistic brand of religious nationalism?
 
 Deepa Mehta, the director of a trilogy comprising Fire, Earth, and Water, is a Hindu woman whose films tackle patriarchy and fundamentalist religion. In an attack that is reminiscent of the religious and political vitriol targeted at Salman Rushdie’s Satanic Verses, all three of Mehta’s films, but particularly Fire and Water, have been the subjects of critiques of too much freedom inside the country, and these critiques have in turn led those outside the country to condemn the Indian body-politic for its lack of freedom. 
 
 In the case of Fire, it may not be unreasonable to assume that the opposition to the film arose due its depiction of an unbridled version of female sexuality that challenged prevalent religious-patriarchal norms. Reading the local rebuttal of the movie in light of the struggle to define the role of women in a global context, Sujata Moorti argues, “local resistance to the global is manifested in a series of practices that invoke religion to regulate women; control over female bodies becomes a crucial strategy for rejecting the global” (“Inflamed Passions”, 20 June 2006). However, considering that Water was subject to the wrath of violent mobs right in the midst of its shooting in the ancient Hindu city of Varanasi, despite its script obtaining the approval of the Federal Government in India, the question arises—is religion merely an excuse to garner support for political battles? More importantly, are the political battles being fought in the name of a national cohesion that can only be achieved through “freedom” from the West?
 
 As developing societies like India make their way along the complex path of economic liberalisation and socio-political fundamentalism, is it the responsibility of the “enlightened” West to guide them through their difficult journey to the epitome of freedom? Is the West, then, not only claiming to be “free”, but also exercising hegemony over the very concept of freedom by deciding whether or not a country is free? Can a country ever be free if a pseudo-free Western collective judges its degree of freedom? Perhaps the writings of Jasmine Yuen-Carrucan, an Australian who worked as a camera assistant on the film Water, can assist us in sorting through these questions: 
 
 There I was in India, sitting on the steps of this government office, clutching my piece of paper, fighting for the first time for the right for freedom of expression. I waved a little paper flag with all my heart but wondered whether it was the business of a foreigner such as myself to enter a country like India, steeped in religious traditions and strong political codes, and try to challenge them. I was, after all, only going to put my flag down and head home. Perhaps it was not my fight to pursue (“The Politics of Deepa Mehta’s Water”, 5 June 2006).
 
 If the fight for freedom of expression is not that of the foreign crewmember, is it that of the diasporic filmmaker? 
 
 Reflecting on the protests by Sikhs in Britain against the play Behzti (Dishonour) by Gurpreet Kaur Bhatti, who is herself a Sikh, Salil Tripathi issues a warning to those of the diaspora who dare to be self-critical: “The defiant and deviant will inevitably face the community’s shame and dishonour” (164). Is Mehta being subjected to a similar fate? In reference to the ire over Fire, Moorti observes, “Mehta’s status as a Canadian resident and the film’s disavowal of traditional norms were used to mark the product as western” (“Inflamed Passions”, 20 June 2006). The doubts over Mehta’s “Indianness” are reminiscent of the primitivist/nativist tendency towards authenticity that post-colonial discourse has been attempting to dismantle in favour of a hybrid existence. Significantly, in the wake of a lack of self-appraisal from the so-called authentic Others, is it not the responsibility of the diasporic intellectual, with his/her awareness of the permeability of boundaries, to point out the “unfreedom” of exerting political or religious control to prescribe a unitary definition of cultural identity? In an interview with Richard Phillips, Mehta comments on her constrained freedom: 
 
 The situation in India at the moment is that if you produce films with song and dance routines or unserious films, you are fine. It doesn’t matter how violent or vulgar they are. But if you want to make something even slightly introspective it is a no-no and you are accused of exploiting Indian culture. I keep on saying: Is Indian culture so weak that one film can destroy it? (“Deepa Mehta Speaks Out”, 5 June 2006). 
 
 It seems that with the non-availability of both films in India, and the diasporic status of this very critical piece, the arabesque statue rather than the living form that is “Indian culture” is far from being destroyed. 
 
 Perhaps it is time that “Westerners”, diasporic critics, and liberal “Easterners” tolerated the firing and subsequent watering down of democratic rights like the freedom of expression in non-Western countries. However, any defence of “unfreedom” would sound bizarre to our free-thinking Selves. If, in this age of post-modern uncertainties we are deconstructing our own freedom, and fragmenting our own identity, should we expect the same of the Others? Braidotti sums up the dilemma of feminist, black, and post-colonial subjects in a similar question: “how can we undo a subjectivity we have not even historically been entitled to yet?” (15). It appears, therefore, that before commenting on a particular society’s freedom or lack thereof, historical differences need to be acknowledged. While the current crisis of freedom in the West may not be entirely applicable to the East, its demonstration of freedom as “becoming” rather than “being” is perhaps indicative of a future we can all open ourselves to.

The purpose of the present study was to define the term “cyberbullying” from the perspective of middle- and high-school students in Vietnam, detailing its characteristics. The study used qualitative focus groups with Vietnamese students, teachers, parents, school psychologists, and psycho-educational experts in Hanoi, Vietnam. From the perspective of these informants, cyberbullying involves seven characteristics: (a) The indirect transmission of negative, untrue, hateful, and/ or secret, personal information through electronic devices and applications, (b) with the intention to hurt the victim, (c) which may or may not be part of a series of repetitive actions that nonetheless may have ongoing effects, (d) with the perpetrator an individual or a group, (e) in the context of a power imbalance relationship, (f) with the perpetrator(s) able to hide his or her identity, (g) and the bullying able to occur at all times in any place the victim has internet access.
 Keywords: Definition, characteristics, cyberbullying, students, Vietnam.

I examined variation in community structure, species richness, biomass and abundance of Coprini dung beetles from 45 trapping sites in meadows, 35-year-old secondary forests and primary forests in tropical, high-elevation karst ecosystems of Puluong Nature Reserve, Thanh Hoa Province. My main aim was to explore community response to the influence of land use change. By comparing the structure and community attributes of the beetles between 35-year-old secondary forests and primary forests, I expected to give indications on the conservation value of the old secondary forests for beetle conservation. Community structure significantly differed among land-use types. Species richness, abundance and biomass were significantly higher in forest habitats than in meadows. The cover of ground vegetation, soil clay content and tree diameter are important factors structuring Coprini communities in karst ecosystems of Pu Luong. The secondary forests, after 35 years of regrowth showed similarities in species richness, abundance and biomass to primary forests. This gives hope for the recovery of Coprini communities during forest succession.
 Keywords: Coprini, dung beetles, karst ecosystems, land use change, Pu Luong.
