  • Bishops Falls ICSP
    Town Name: Bishop’s Falls Type of ICSP: Stand Alone Created by: Town Council Projected Length of Plan: 5 years Community Profile A $7 million economic diversification fund was awarded to the community following the railway closure to assist in rebuilding the economy. The Bishop’s Falls Development Corporation was established to manage the fund and to attract new businesses to the Town, which decided to pursue manufacturing as a strategic sector. Sixteen years later, in 2004, the BFDC closed because the diversification fund had become exhausted. Community Assessment Economic Sustainability It is obvious that a large majority of residents are working full-time in Grand Falls- Windsor. Employment outside of NL is also a contributor to the Bishop’s Falls economy. Approximately 23% of those above the age of 18 are unemployed. There are roughly 70 businesses in Bishop’s Falls representing a broad base of sectors (manufacturing, transportation, construction, retail, services, restaurants, etc), 70% of which operate on a year round basis. Sixty percent of the respondents established their businesses after 1991. Governance Sustainability The town has a committed council and has voting privileges on the Exploits Regional Services Board, Exploits Valley Economic Development Corporation, and the Exploits Valley Joint Council. The town currently holds membership status with the Exploits Valley Tourism Association, Exploits Regional Chamber of Commerce, and the Central Newfoundland Waste Management Committee. Cultural/Community Sustainability The communityof Bishop’s Falls has become apathetic – this message resounded during almost every consultation session. There is an important point to be made here – although the sectors are being addressed as separate areas, they are interdependent and interconnected with each other.

  • Evaluation of the Alternative Suspension Program
    Evaluation of the Alternative Suspension Program by Danièle Laliberté RESEARCH REPORT: 2017–R008 RESEARCH DIVISION www.publicsafety.gc.ca Abstract The Alternative Suspension (AS) program, which aims to reduce criminal activity by increasing youth attachment to school, was evaluated. The evaluation sites were in Chilliwack (British Columbia), North/West Edmonton (Alberta), and Moncton (New Brunswick). The target group consisted of students 12 to 17 years old, who were experiencing difficulties in their academic and social life, and had been suspended or at risk of being suspended. A pre-post design with a non- equivalent control group was used. The evaluators collected data and also used school data and data collected by the implementation agency. Youth who were more likely to experience better behavioural outcomes had been referred to AS for substance use (29 times more likely), criminal behaviour (14 times more), or physical or verbal violence (12 times more). At the end of the school year, 75.2% of completers and 56.3% of the control group had at least one positive outcome. Overall 45.0% of AS completers successfully finished all their courses; 44.1% of these youth, and 28.8% of the control group “met or exceeded school academic expectations”. Overall, 59.0% of program completers and 38.1% of the control group improved their school behaviour. There was a decrease in disciplinary actions for 61.5% of completers and 39.6% of the control group. Around 3.8% of program completers and 14.3% of the control group had dropped out of school at the end of the school year.

  • (CAMR) URGENT ACTION ALERT – Wednesday, Marc
    Please circulate widely. CAMPAIGN TO REFORM CANADA’S ACCESS TO MEDICINES REGIME (CAMR) URGENT ACTION ALERT – Wednesday, March 16 – Tuesday, March 22, 2011 Please urge Canada’s Senate Leaders to avoid delays and pass Bill C-393 quickly during the week of Monday, March 21st. YOU did it! On Wednesday, March 9th, Bill C-393 was passed at its final vote in the House of Commons with a strong majority – 172 Yeas to 111 Nays. Supporters included all members of the NDP and Bloc Québécois caucuses, all but 2 of the Liberal MPs who were present, and 26 Conservative backbenchers. (The Conservative government imposed a partial whip on the vote, forcing Conservative MPs who are cabinet Ministers and parliamentary secretaries to vote against the bill.) We could not have come this far without the support from people like you who have completed our actions throughout the campaign and have followed this Bill straight through to the Senate – THANK YOU! But now we need to keep up the pressure or else the bill could die on the order paper if an election is called, which may be very soon. Bill C-393 is currently before the Senate and is first scheduled for debate on Monday, March 21st. With a pending election looming, Bill C-393 runs the risk of dying in the Senate if our Senators do not pass it before the Governor General declares an election. The Senate can pass this humanitarian bill within a matter of days – but only if there is enough political will to do so. We have confirmed that Liberal Senators will support the bill and support passing it quickly.

  • Joint Statement Calling for Sanctioning of Chinese and Hong Kong Officials and Protection for Hong Kongers at Risk of Political Persecution
    Joint statement calling for sanctioning of Chinese and Hong Kong officials and protection for Hong Kongers at risk of political persecution We, the undersigned, call upon the Government of Canada to take action in light of the mass arrests and assault on civil rights following the unilateral imposition of the new National Security Law in Hong Kong. Many in Hong Kong fear they will face the same fate as the student protestors in Tiananmen Square, defenders’ lawyers, and millions of interned Uyghurs, Tibetans, and faith groups whose rights of free expression and worship are denied. We urge the Government of Canada to offer a “Safe Harbour Program” with an expedited process to grant protection and permanent residency status to Hong Kongers at risk of political persecution under the National Security Law, including international students and expatriate workers who have been involved in protest actions in Canada. Furthermore, Canada must invoke the Sergei Magnitsky Law to sanction Chinese and Hong Kong officials who instituted the National Security Law, as well as other acts violating human rights; and to ban them and their immediate family members from Canada and freeze their Canadian assets. Canada needs to work closely with international allies with shared values to institute a strong policy toward China. It is time for Canada to take meaningful action to show leadership on the world stage.
