Purpose – This paper aims to examine if certain board characteristics have an impact on the corporate social responsibility (CSR) score of corporations. Design/methodology/approach – The authors’ paper analyzes the link between the ratings of CSR of the largest publicly traded Canadian firms (i.e. those included in the S&P/TSX 60 index) and the traits of their boards. Findings – The authors’ examination concludes that the CSR score is positively linked with the percentages of women and independent directors. The study did not find a link in the cases of board characteristics, namely, direc

Abstract:
IntroductionThere has been a rapid influx of 30,000 Syrian refugees in Canada, many are women of childbearing age, and most have young children. The literature reports that refugee women are almost 5 times more likely to develop postpartum depression than Canadian-born women. However, little is known about the experiences that the Syrian refugee women have encountered pre- and post-resettlement and their perceptions of mental health issues in general, and of maternal depression in particular. Thus, there is an urgent need to understand the refugee women's experiences of having a baby in Canada

Purpose This paper presents an analysis of how health intersects with the experience of housing insecurity and homelessness, specifically for migrant women. The authors argue that it is important to understand the specificities of the interplay of these different factors to continue the advancement of our understanding and practice as advocates for health and housing security.

Purpose – The purpose of this paper is to explore how male and female leaders define effective leadership in an extreme context. Design/methodology/approach – The authors conducted in-depth interviews with leaders working in an extreme context (a matched sample of female and male Majors and Colonels in the Canadian Armed Forces) and analysed military training materials. Findings – In the military, male and female leadership looks much more similar than might be expected. Further, surprisingly this is not occurring because women are leading in more masculine ways, but rather the opposite; men a

RESUMO: Alice Munro, escritora canadense e vencedora do Prêmio Nobel de Literatura de 2013, é reconhecida por sua relevante contribuição dentro dos estudos de gênero. A ficção de Munro tem proporcionado aos leitores interessantes e complexas personagens, em especial no que tange ao papel da mulher face ao seu amadurecimento e sua inserção social. Neste estudo, pretendo desenvolver uma leitura do conto “Paixão” (ano 2004) de Munro tendo em vista a visão crítica da autora, a qual desafia pressupostos ligados a padrões tradicionais e presentes tanto na construção do feminino, quanto do masculino.

Abstract:
ABSTRACTIn contrast to the negative images which attend old women in many social and statistical reports, literary gerontology provides a framework which allows us to see old women as complex and integrated figures. Canadian literature offers numerous examples of powerful old women who defy reductive stereotypes. Literary grandmothers, particularly when they appear in pairs, force a recognition of the integrating and mediating powers of old women. This paper discusses four Canadian novels in which pairs of grandmothers can be seen to supply a structural matrix which orders and supports the gro

Abstract Introduction: There is an increased risk of venous thromboembolism (VTE) in patients with essential thrombocythemia (ET), however, what the absolute VTE risk is during pregnancy is largely unknown and is based on small cohort or registry studies. Recommendation for the use of low-molecular-weight heparin (LMWH) prophylaxis in the antepartum and/or postpartum setting is based on the absolute VTE and bleeding risk in other patient populations, for example, in women with inherited thrombophilia. A better estimate of absolute VTE risk will provide guidance for the use of LMWH in pregnant

Abstract:
This study offers additional nuance to the garden topos and trope within nineteenth- and twentieth-century Canadian women's writing and extends the critical discussion of landscape and the garden as archetype in Canadian literature. This dissertation cross-fertilizes literary analysis with garden theory, using the work of such garden historians as John Dixon Hunt, Mark Francis, and Randolph Hester. The argument emphasizes that gardens in literature, like their actual counterparts, are an art of milieu, reflective of their socio-physical contexts. Both real and textual gardens are rhetorical: t

Abstract:
This thesis examines the role of Canadian women as presented in English language novels of the 1930s written by women authors. Within the context of the Great Depression it focuses on issues that are central to women's daily lives such as work, love, marriage and motherhood. It also isolates recurring themes in the novels and attempts to understand the authors' messages within their social context. Social reform, politics and gender relationships are among the subjects explored.

Abstract:
This lively and readable book opens the window to a rich and vibrant world of Orthodox, or religiously observant, Jewish women who keep kosher and Shabbat while holding jobs, solving crimes, confronting prejudice, and making music. Drawing on memoirs, novels, film, and a graphic novel, Karen Skinazi argues that Jewish women find opportunities for personal empowerment through religious observance, and that their actions within the tradition (and against it) offer opportunities for corrective approaches to the tradition and to its perception by outsiders. The book is structured around selected verses of “Eshet ḥayil”—“Woman of Valor” (Prov. 31:10–31)—an acrostic poem that is sung on Friday nights as part of the Shabbat observance (the term also refers to any woman who is an active public figure). For Skinazi, the initiative, authority, energy, and intelligence ascribed to the woman of valor in the poem offers a counternarrative to mainstream fictional and media depictions of religious observance. The book thus offers itself as a feminist affirmation of religious practice in the post-secular age as described by German philosopher and sociologist Jürgen Habermas and Canadian philosopher Charles Taylor....
