  • A Tribute to Linda Duncan, M.P
    1 December 8, 2019 A Tribute to Linda Duncan By Douglas Roche Edmonton-Strathcona is a rampart of democracy in Alberta whose safety the voters have wisely entrusted to Heather McPherson, who succeeds a parliamentarian who courageously held the banner high, Linda Duncan. We are here tonight to celebrate a changing of the guard — from Linda to Heather. This changing of the guard has an importance far greater than an election victory in one constituency. In many parts of the world, democracy is trampled on and authoritarianism denies people the right to freely choose their political leaders. It is certainly not safe in many countries to work and organize for social justice. So let us not forget the precious value of freedom we have in Canada where we go to the election polls in security and peace. We are celebrating the changing of the guard in Edmonton-Strathcona, a small area in the vastness of Canada. But in a larger sense we are celebrating the strengths of all Canada. We — here tonight — are Canada with all its history, diversity and unity. We are greater than the mere boundaries of a constituency, we rise above provincialism, we accept the challenges of the modern world. Edmonton-Strathcona knows it belongs not just to the Whyte Avenue surroundings but to the planet, and has responsibilities to humanity and the protection of the environment that sustains all life. Who knows this better than Linda Duncan. When Governor General Julie Payette said in the Throne speech a few days ago: “Canada’s children and grandchildren will judge this generation by its action – or inaction – on the defining challenge of the time: climate change,” those words could have been written by Linda.

  • SKHS Annual Report 2006
    ACTING DIRECTOR’S STATEMENT The School of Physical and Health Education formally became the School of Kinesiology and Health Studies at Queen’s University through an act of Queen’s Senate on 24 May 2006. The new School of Kinesiology and Health Studies is pleased to provide the seventh annual report on its undertakings and the first report under its new name. This is also my first report as Acting Director of the School. The achievements of our faculty and students were numerous and impressive in 2006. The School’s academic programs consist of a revitalized program in Physical Education, an emerging program in Health Studies, and a new program in Kinesiology that will be launched in September 2007. These programs are positioned to address contemporary concerns, meet students’ needs, and help set research and policy agendas. Our programs reflect a breadth of teaching and research topics from the social sciences underpinning diversity, participation, equity and inclusion, to the epidemiological, biomechanical, and physiological study serving research in health, physical activity, obesity, and sport. Much of this teaching and research focus is distinctive for its critical engagement with the real world. The extensive listing of work in peer reviewed journals, practical reports, policy papers, and the popular press and the high student demand for our programs are evidence of the quality of the teaching and research that is conducted within the School. The research work carried out within the School continues to be supported by several external granting agencies including new grants obtained in 2006 from CIHR, NSERC, the Ontario Ministry of Research and Innovation (OMRI), and the International Development Research Center (IDRC).

  • Community Education and Development: Perspectives on Employment, Employability and Development of English-Speaking Black Minority of Quebec
    Special Issue 2019, Article 1 from Series of 5 (Editorial) Collaborative Unity and Existential Responsibility COMMUNITY EDUCATION AND DEVELOPMENT: PERSPECTIVES ON EMPLOYMENT, EMPLOYABILITY AND DEVELOPMENT OF ENGLISH-SPEAKING BLACK MINORITY OF QUEBEC Clarence S Bayne* Director of ICED , John Molson [email protected] School of Business, Concordia Uni- versity, President of BCRC * Corresponding author ABSTRACT Background On December 7, 2018, the Black Community Forum of Montreal held a conference on “Community Education and Development: perspectives on English-Speaking Blacks and Other Minorities”. The IJCDMS Journal has selected a number of the conference papers for publication in its Special Conference Series: “Collaborative Unity and Existential Responsi- bility.” This article serves as an overview to the conference; and provides a theoretical framework against which the reader can derive a better under- standing of those papers. It allows the reader to reflect meaningfully on the optimality of the decision search rules adopted by various cultural subgroups, by comparing them to the behaviors of successful agent types in the computer simulated studies discussed in this paper. The targeted cultural sub-populations are the English-Speaking Blacks in Montreal. method of lecturing to cater for the next generation of learners.

We postu- approach late that patterns in the responses of leadership in a social dynamic system may be impacted by values and uncertain events that are better explained by using a qualitative system analysis as opposed to traditional quantitative analyses based on positivist assumptions.

The mayor came to the Glebe in early January and, to our surprise, he brought with him his chief of staff, the manager for eco- nomic development and the direc- tor for planning and the environ- ment. We discussed three key sub- jects. First: What is the city's vi- sion for the downtown core? Is the Glebe part of the downtown core? Second: Why does the city contin- ue to favour areas managed by BIAs (Business Improvement Ar: eas). For the record, a BIA is an area where all businesses (like it or not) pay an additional tax levy to fund projects and pay for services (which used to be provided by the city). Third: Discuss more specific problems we face such as graffiti, parking problems, our lack of garbage and recycling pickup, as well as the eroding appearance of the city and how it is seen by its residents and tourists. Photo: Giovanni We were quite impressed. The mayor was open to discussing all of Left to right: Doug McKeen (Glebe Pharmasave Apothecary), Jim McKeen (Loeb Glebe), Michael Murr (Manager these issues.
