Abstract:
While scholars have been successfully offering courses in Canadian Studies abroad for more than three decades, the recent cancellation of the Government of Canada’s funding program, Understanding Canada, puts such foreign-based teaching programs in a state of flux. Given that there is now little financial support for institutions, courses and conferences, instructors must ensure that courses in Canadian Studies are engaging and accessible in order for the discipline to stay relevant within this new fiscal reality. One solution could be to use innovative teaching techniques to demonstrate the v

Abstract:
Canadians value ease of access to their health services. Although many studies have focused on accessibility to health services in Canada, few have examined rural-urban differences in this aspect, particularly from a national perspective. Yet disparities in access to health services exist between rural and urban populations, as do the challenges of delivering health care to more remote areas or to those with small populations. “Canada’s Rural Communities: Understanding Rural Health and Its Determinants” is a three-year research project co-funded by the Canadian Population Health Initiative (CP

Abstract:
While discursive approaches and social theory enjoy some notoriety in the academic study of religion, the so-called critical turn is no stranger to challenges. Some reject it as philosophically apolitical; others, as ignorant of biological and psychological insights. In this edition of The Interview, we turn to an exchange with MIT Professor Emeritus Noam Chomsky, whose work has informed how many scholars of religion approach the sciences and cultural politics.

The usage of recycled asphalt shingles (RAS) in hot mix asphalt (HMA) pavements provides many benefits as long as they are properly engineered into the various HMA mixes. Contractors, consultants, and Departments of Transportation have evaluated the performance of these various materials, although they are still only used in a limited number of areas. Alternatively, recycled asphalt pavement (RAP) is recognized as a high value recycled material and is actually the most recycled material in North America. In Ontario, RAP is successfully used in most HMA. Related studies on HMA containing RAS an

So far as the issue of indigenous technological capability in less developed countries (LDCs) is concerned, a major discussion centering round the topic took place at a conference held at the Centre of African Studies,

After its beginnings as a subject taught to medical students, chemistry began to achieve independent status with the construction of a dedicated sciences building in 1924. Growth remained slow until government began to fund university education, and science studies, more generously in the 1950s.

This article examines recent controversies sparked by the critical reception of work by Global Majority theatre artists in Canada and the USA, including Yolanda Bonnell, Yvette Nolan, and Antoinette Nwandu. It argues that, when faced with works that fall outside of their presumed expertise and experience, critics commonly resort to a strategy of critical disengagement, which displaces the focus from the work and refuses to evaluate it on its own terms. Through an analysis of case studies, we elucidate the concept of critical disengagement and its three distinct categories, ‘othering,’ ‘imposin

Abstract:
AbstractCannabis Legalization for Recreational Purposes took place in Canada in October 2018. One of the federal government’s stated goals with this legalization was to protect Canadian youth from cannabis-related harms. The Canadian model differs from other jurisdictions that legalized recreational cannabis use, especially with regard to a higher degree of government regulation of the cannabis market. Another difference is the development and endorsement of lower-risk cannabis use guidelines to educate the public and health professionals. Here, we will present the changes in the regulation of

The creation of the devolved Scottish parliament in 1999, argues Adrienne Scullion, has the potential to change everything that has been understood and imagined or thought and speculated about Scotland. The devolved parliament shifts the governance of the country, resets financial provisions and socio-economic management, recreates Scottish politics and Scottish society – and affects how Scotland is represented and imagined by artists of all kinds. The radical context of devolution should also afford Scottish criticism an unprecedented opportunity to rethink its more rigid paradigms and struct
