2002 Calgary Homelessness Study 2002 CALGARY HOMELESSNESS STUDY Final Report October 2002 1 Research Report to the Calgary Homeless Foundation, October 2002 Everyone has the right to a standard of living adequate for the health and well-being of himself and his family, including food, clothing, housing and medical care and necessary social services, and the right to security in the event of unemployment, sickness, disability, widowhood, old age or other lack of livelihood in circumstances beyond his control. Universal Declaration of Human Rights article 25, par. 1. Even the most sophisticated studies cannot determine the morally “right” way to spend public money. Barbara Dickey, Harvard University, 2000 2 Research Report to the Calgary Homeless Foundation, October 2002 Acknowledgements The Project Team would like to acknowledge all of the individuals and programs that provided assistance for this study. Both the service agencies and funders who work with homeless and relatively homeless people provided us with overwhelming support. All agencies were consistently collaborative and welcoming in this process. In particular, we are grateful to the following agencies for providing facilities and/or administrative/staff support during the project: o Avenue 15 o Calgary Urban Projects (CUPS) o Calgary Drop In Centre o Murdoch Manor o The shelters for women fleeing violence o The Golden Age Club o The Kerby Centre o The Mustard Seed (Calgary) Street Ministry o The Salvation Army o Urban Society for Aboriginal Youth (USAY) We were greatly encouraged by the number of homeless and relatively homeless people who took the time to talk to us about their experiences and to indicate the areas where service providers can work to help people avoid homelessness or get out of it sooner. We would also like to thank the Calgary Homeless Foundation (CHF), the funder of this project, the CHF Research Steering Committee and the Community Action Committee for their support and assistance in managing a very complex process. 3 Research Report to the Calgary Homeless Foundation, October 2002 Project Team Principal Investigator Helen Gardiner, M.Sc., Ph.D. (Candidate) Applied Psychology Co-Investigator Kathleen V.

  • Statement of Rodney J. Bosco Navigant Consulting, Inc. On
    STATEMENT OF RODNEY J. BOSCO NAVIGANT CONSULTING, INC. ON THE “THE FUTURE OF MONEY: COIN PRODUCTION” BEFORE THE HOUSE FINANCIAL SERVICES SUBCOMMITTEE ON DOMESTIC MONETARY POLICY & TECHNOLOGY UNITED STATES HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES APRIL 17, 2012 Mr. Chairman and Members of the Subcommittee, my name is Rodney Bosco and I am a Director in the Disputes and Investigations practice at Navigant Consulting, Inc. (“Navigant”). I am pleased to testify today concerning our coin system, its cost drivers, and an analysis we conducted recently that identified approximately $200 million in annual cost savings if the United States moved to a steel‐based composition for our vended nickel, dime, and quarter. Navigant is an international consulting firm that provides independent, objective analysis of and opinions on accounting, financial and economic issues. Our report was commissioned by Jarden Zinc Products, North America’s leading plated coin blank producer and a licensee of the Royal Canadian Mint’s multi‐ply plated steel technology. We acknowledge the significant assistance of the Royal Canadian Mint (“RCM”) and Worthington Industries in the preparation of our analysis. As the Subcommittee examines ways to make our coins less expensively, and awaits the United States Mint’s recommendations on alternative metals later this year, our work has led us to three major conclusions which I want to share with you today. (1) Adoption of a multi‐ply plated steel composition for the vended five‐cent, dime and quarter‐dollar coins will reduce the per‐unit raw material costs of these coins by 84% to 89%, based on recent prices of copper, nickel and low‐carbon steel during the United States Mint’s 2011 fiscal year.

  • Crude Optimism Romanticizing Alberta’S Oil Frontier at the Calgary Stampede Kimberly Skye Richards
    Crude Optimism Romanticizing Alberta’s Oil Frontier at the Calgary Stampede Kimberly Skye Richards An immaculate young woman regally waves at a sea of enthusiastic fans. Perched on her head is a white cowboy hat embellished with a tiara that has “Calgary Stampede Queen” written on it in rhinestones. She is a vision of “westernness” in cowboy boots, a buckskin skirt and jacket, and turquoise jewels. Her express purpose this hot July afternoon is to welcome the 115,000 folks attending the “Greatest Outdoor Show on Earth,” the Calgary Exhibition and Stampede. She is a “welcome figure,”1 like those white-cowboy-hat-wearing individuals in the Calgary air- port who stand in the arrivants’ path and greet travelers. These performances of western hospi- tality amount to a performance of power: the assertion of settler rights to land.2 They are just 1. I borrow this term from Stó:lō scholar Dylan Robinson’s essay “Welcoming Sovereignty,” which examines Indigenous sovereignty and gestures of welcome that take place in spaces of transit and gathering (2016:24). 2. In using the term “settler” to describe non-Indigenous people living in western Canada, I am referring to the idea within settler colonial studies that being a settler is not an identity, but a structural position and experience of power and privilege. Settlers settle into land appropriated by imperial nations and create independent homelands for themselves. They are defined by conquest; they are “founders of political orders and carry their sovereignty TDR: The Drama Review 63:2 (T242) Summer 2019. ©2019 138 New York University and the Massachusetts Institute of Technology Downloaded from http://www.mitpressjournals.org/doi/pdf/10.1162/dram_a_00839 by guest on 26 September 2021 Student Essay Contest Winner Kimberly Skye Richards is a PhD Candidate in Performance Studies at the University of California-Berkeley.

  • The 1969 Large Date Ten Cents
    The 1969 Large Date Ten Cents by Jeremy Day This is the story of the incredibly rare 1969 Large Date ten cents - a coin so rare that its very existence was not confirmed until nine years after it was struck! The first hint of this coin's existence came in 1970 when a woman walked into Peter Degraaf's coin store in Ottawa and showed him a 1969 Large Date ten cent piece she had found in her change. She inquired about its rarity and possible value, but Peter, never having seen one, could not verify its worth. The woman then left without giving her name or phone number. She never returned. But. Peter recognized that the coin was important for the reason that the old 1953-1968 reverse die had been used to produce a 1969 ten cent coin, when the nor­ mal production of 1969 ten cent coins showed an entirely remodelled schooner, date and devices, all of which are significantly smaller in style than the older type. Peter reasoned that the 1968 and earlier reverse master die had had the date repunched to read 1969. In such a case, one would expect several working dies, and thus large quantities of the 1969 large date, large schooner type. So Peter started checking around to find out what had happened at the Royal Canadian Mint to produce these coins. Were they trial coins and if so, how did they get into circulation? Were they knowingly produced and released for general circulation? If so, how many dies were made and what "".il~ the mintage? Were they "back door jobs"? If so, why would the perpetrator spenc them, and where were they all? Had anyone else seen or heard of any? Peter tried to get information from the Royal Canadian Mint in vain.

  • Collecting America the Beautiful 5 Ounce Silver
    Liberty Coin Service Collecting America The Beautiful 5 Ounce Silver Quarters by Thomas Coulson The Statehood Quarter program which ran from 1999 to 2009 was im- mensely popular. It introduced millions of new collectors to numismat- ics. These new collectors were searching their change for the latest issues and eagerly awaiting the release of the quarter from their home state. As a result of this success, Congress authorized a new series of commem- orative quarters honoring important sites in each of the fifty states and six territories and possessions. The new coins were introduced under the title America the Beautiful Quarter Series. They were also known by the abbreviation ‘ATB’. The coins were first issued in 2010, and five sites were honored each year and will continue to be through 2021. There 2010 Mount Hood, Oregon are two main themes for the issues: Natural wonders and Historic sites. 5 Ounce Silver Quarter The America the Beautiful Quarter series is an intriguing collection to assemble. The coins promote awareness of so much of the Nation’s natural grandeur and its hallowed grounds. De- sign lessons the Mint learned from the Statehood Quarter series were applied to the new coins. The America the Beautiful coins are more aesthetically pleasing than the earlier Statehood quarters because of their common border design and more specific subject matter. While the State Quarters could encompass many different types of themes, the America the Beautiful Quarters had specific subjects assigned for each state before the design process. At their best, the designs are innovative and alluring. The Mount Hood, Statehood Quar- ter Obverse Denali, Hawai’i, and White Mountain issues are great examples of modern numismatic art.

  • Activity 1: History of Canadian Money and Crossword [PDF]
    MODULE 1: Money—Earn it! Session 1: Introduction and expectation setting Reading: History of Canadian Money Source: www.thecanadaguide.com/basics/money From the 1800s to Today In early Canadian history, people in Britain’s Canadian colonies used a variety of different currencies to buy things, including British pounds, American dollars, Spanish pesos, and even unique colonial currencies made by local banks and governments. In 1867, the new unified Canadian government gained exclusive constitutional power over currency, and in 1870 it used this power to pass the Dominion Notes Act (now known as the Currency Act) which made the Canadian Dollar ($) the official currency of Canada. A Canadian dollar is made up of 100 Canadian cents (¢). Originally tied to value of the British pound, and then the price of gold, since 1931 the Canadian dollar has been a so-called “free-floating” currency with a value determined by the international marketplace. Like most advanced countries, Canada also has a national bank, known as the Bank of Canada, that has the power to both print and buy currency in order to help control the currency’s value. In the opinion of the International Monetary Fund, the Canadian dollar is one of the world’s seven reserve currencies known for its stability and reliability even in times of economic uncertainty. Loonie (one dollar) The Loonie is a large coin made of gold-coloured nickel. There used to be a one-dollar bill, but it was phased out in the 1980s. The coin is called a “Loonie” because it has a picture of a loon, the national bird of Canada, on it.

  • Mercury Dimes Mercury Dime Facts Every Collector Should Know
    Mercury Dimes Mercury Dime Facts Every Collector Should Know Designed by: Adolph Alexander Weinman Edge Style: Reeded Mints: Philadelphia, Denver, San Francisco Diameter: 17.9mm Weight: 2.50g Metallic Content: 90% Silver, 10% Copper Silver Content: .18084 oz Pure Silver 2 Mercury Dimes 1916 was a very special year in the history of U.S. coinage. In that year, three new silver coins made their debut, and for the first time in American history, different designs were used on the dime, quarter and half dollar coins. Adolph A. Weinman, who also designed the famed Walking Liberty Half Dollar, designed the Mercury Dime, or Winged Liberty Dime. His monogram “AW” can be found to the right of Liberty’s neck. The mintmark (“D” for Denver, “S” for San Francisco) can be found at the bottom of the reverse, just to the left of the fasces. Mercury Dimes were made through 1945, when a new dime was designed bearing Franklin D. Roosevelt’s image, in response to his death. PCGS.COM 3 Are Mercury Dimes Rare? As a group, Mercury Dimes are not rare. Over 2.5 billion were struck, and even if only 1% survived, that still leaves over 25 million today. During the deepest part of the depression, 1932-1933, no dimes were struck. As a result, collectors today divide Mercury Dimes into the early dates (1916-1931) and late dates (1934-1945). Nearly all of the late dates are common and can be found in roll quantity from online sources such as eBay or from dealers. Enlarged view of monogram shown on obverse of coin.
