Vancouver is also known as one of the most diverse cities in Canada with 52% of the population speaking a non-English language as their first language. The city has also hosted numerous international conferences and events, including the 2010 Winter Olympics. 1 7 About UBC The University of British Columbia In the heart of the city of Vancouver is a university that has consistently been ranked among the 40 best universities in the world. Established in 1915, the University of British Columbia is currently a global centre for research and teaching. UBC has embraced innovation and challenged the status quo. Its entrepreneurial perspective encourages students, staff and faculty to challenge convention, lead discovery and explore new ways of learning. At UBC, bold thinking is given a place to develop into ideas that can change the world. 2 The Vancouver campus is a spectacular location that is a must-see for any visitor to the city – where snow-capped mountains meet ocean, and breathtaking vistas greet you around every corner. The campus is home to more than 39,000 undergraduates and nearly 10,000 graduate students. 3 8 Vancouver Transportation Public Transportation Options SkyTrain Automated trains that run above and below ground Consists of the Expo Line, Millennium Line, and Canada Line The Canada Line travels from the airport to Downtown Vancouver Buses Traditional buses make more frequent stops Express buses take fewer stops than traditional buses Smaller community shuttles carry fewer people but take passengers to specific areas of the city Getting from YVR Airport to UBC By taxi If you want to take a taxi from the airport to UBC, there is a 24-hour taxi service from the airport. The fare to UBC is around $50-65. 9 Directions to UBC By public transport You can also take the Canada Line, a rapid-transit system that runs frequently from the airport to downtown Vancouver. The Canada Line does not go to UBC but it runs directly to downtown from the airport. To go to UBC, get off at Broadway City Hall and take the 99 UBC B-Line bus to the UBC campus. Depending on the day of the week and time you are leaving the airport, the cost of public transit from the airport ranges from $7.75 to $9.00. By car Driving your own personal vehicle or rental car is the fastest way to get to UBC from the YVR airport. 10 Directions to UBC Directions to UBC by car From Vancouver International (YVR) Airport – 3211 Grant McConachie Way, Richmond, BC V7B 0A4 Head northwest on Grant McConachie Way E (54m) Continue to Grant McConachie Way E (800m) Use the left 2 lanes to turn slightly left (40m) Use the left 2 lanes to turn slightly left (170m) Keep right (600m) 11 Directions to UBC Follow Grant McConachie Way E and SW Marine Dr to Wesbrook Mall in Greater Vancouver (13.1km) Slight left onto Grant McConachie Way E (400m) Continue straight to stay on Grant McConachie Way E (1.7km) Keep left to stay on Grant McConachie Way E (1.3km) Continue onto Arthur Laing Bridge/Marine Dr SW (180m) 12 Directions to UBC Keep right at the fork, follow signs for Granville Street E/City Centre/Centre- ville/BC-99 N and merge onto SW Dr/BC-99 (750m) Turn left onto SW Marine Dr (450m) Turn left to stay on SW Marine Dr (9.3km) Use the right 2 lines to turn right onto W 16th Ave (550m) At the roundabout, take the 2nd exit and stay on 16th ave (400m) At the roundabout, take the 3rd exit onto Wesbrook Mall (1.4km) 13 Parking in UBC Parking in UBC UBC has numerous parkades and surface lots available for parking.

  • (NP-EEC) Meeting (May 10Th – 13Th ) De
    Monday, February 22, 2021 2021 Summer Nuclear Physics Experiment Evaluation Committee1 (NP-EEC) Meeting (May 10th – 13th ) Dear Experimenters, Users & Staff, We hereby notify that TRIUMF will hold a special virtual meeting of the NP-EEC on May 10th-13th 2021. As you all may be aware the Summer 2020 and Winter 2021 meetings were cancelled due to circumstances surrounding COVID19. In order to allow the committee to deal with the large number of returning requests for expired/expiring high-priority experiment shifts, this first meeting post-lockdown will concentrate on those proposals. As such, we will not nominally be accepting new experiment proposals. Submissions that will be accepted are: 1. Progress Reports for H-priority proposals that expired/will expire at the June 2020, January 2021 or June 2022 EEC meetings2 (proponents will be contacted directly). 2. New regular Letters of Intent (where beam or facility development is reQuired; no shifts are requested) 3. Existing Letters of Intent that have had beam developed in 2020 and wish to upgrade to a Full Proposal 4. New Proposals that receive special dispensation from ALD Physical Sciences, based on compelling arguments why they cannot delay submission until Jan 2022 (see below): The purpose of this meeting is to allow expiring high-priority experiments that were prevented from running largely due to beam-time shortages associated with the lockdown in 2020 to extend approval, while managing our experiment shift backlog. As such, the number of high priority shifts that will be available for the EEC to allocate will be approximately equal to the number of expiring shifts.

    Portail de l'éducation de Historica Canada Canada's Game - The Modern Era Overview This lesson plan is based on viewing the Footprints videos for Gordie Howe, Bobby Orr, Father David Bauer, Bobby Hull,Wayne Gretzky, and The Forum. Throughout hockey's history, though they are not presented in the Footprints, francophone players like Guy Lafleur, Mario Lemieux, Raymond Bourque, Jacques Lemaire, and Patrick Roy also made a significant contribution to the sport. Parents still watch their children skate around cold arenas before the sun is up and backyard rinks remain national landmarks. But hockey is no longer just Canada's game. Now played in cities better known for their golf courses than their ice rinks, hockey is an international game. Hockey superstars and hallowed ice rinks became national icons as the game matured and Canadians negotiated their role in the modern era. Aims To increase student awareness of the development of the game of hockey in Canada; to increase student recognition of the contributions made by hockey players as innovators and their contributions to the game; to examine their accomplishments in their historical context; to explore how hockey has evolved into the modern game; to understand the role of memory and commemoration in our understanding of the past and present; and to critically investigate myth-making as a way of understanding the game’s relationship to national identity. Background Frozen fans huddled in the open air and helmet-less players battled for the puck in a -28 degree Celsius wind chill. The festive celebration was the second-ever outdoor National Hockey League game, held on 22 November 2003.
