Principals Christopher Couse Phyllis Crawford Mitchell Hall Located on the northeast corner of Admiral Road and Lowther Avenue in the Annex Luigi LaRocca neighbourhood of Toronto, 70 Lowther Avenue is both architecturally and historically Goran Milosevic important, having been designed by Charles John Gibson (1862-1935) for Reginald Northcote in Directors Hany Iwamura 1901. Gibson was an eminent and prolific Canadian architect who designed many residences Philip Marjeram throughout Toronto in the late 19th and early 20th century. Amanda Sebris Senior Associates Andrew Dyke 70 Lowther represents a very good example of a corner house marked by tall east and south David Jesson facing gables and a longer side on Lowther Avenue that takes advantage of south light. The Robert Sims design is representative of the quality of residential design that characterized the growth of the Associates Kevin Bridgman Annex when it was a new neighbourhood subdivision north of Bloor Street. Steven Casey David Constable Mark Jaffar What is very valuable and effective about the house is how it respects the setbacks both to the Carolyn Lee Angela Lim west on Admiral Road and the south on Lowther Avenue, reinforcing the continuity of the Glenn MacMullin streetscapes and landscaped setbacks that characterize the Annex.

2011-12 Annual Report to Industry Canada
2011-12 Annual Report to Industry Canada Covering the Objectives, Activities, and Finances for the period August 1, 2011 to July 31, 2012 and Statement of Objectives for Next Year and the Future Submitted by: Neil Turok, Director to the Hon. Christian Paradis, Minister of Industry and the Hon. Gary Goodyear Minister of State (Science and Technology) Vision: To create the world’s foremost centre for foundational theoretical physics, uniting public and private partners, and the world’s best scientific minds, in a shared enterprise to achieve breakthroughs that will transform our future. Overview of Perimeter Institute Theoretical physics seeks to understand what the universe is made of, and the forces that govern it, at the most basic level. Because the field is so fundamental, just one major discovery can literally change the world. The discovery of electromagnetism, for example, led to radio, X-rays, and all wireless technologies, and in turn catalyzed breakthroughs in all the other sciences. The discovery of quantum mechanics led directly to semiconductors, computers, lasers, and a nearly infinite array of modern technologies. Theoretical physics is the lowest-cost, highest-impact field of science. Located in Waterloo, Ontario, Perimeter Institute for Theoretical Physics was founded in 1999, the first attempt in history to strategically accelerate discovery in this most basic area of science. Supported through a visionary funding model, it unites public and private partners, and the world’s best scientific minds, in a shared quest to achieve the next breakthroughs, which will transform our future. As of July 31, 2012, the Perimeter community has grown to include: 18 full-time Faculty 12 Associate Faculty 24 Distinguished Visiting Research Chairs 38 Postdoctoral Researchers 72 Graduate students1 As a major research hub, Perimeter’s conference and visitor programs bring over 1,000 scientists to the Institute annually, catalyzing new research collaborations and discoveries across the spectrum of fundamental physics.
