Community Pharmacies and Public Health Emergencies On behalf of member Medical Officers of Health, Boards of Health and Affiliate organizations of the Association of Local Public Health Agencies (alPHa), I am writing today to introduce alPHa’s resolution on Community Pharmacies and Public Health Emergencies (A05-14, attached). We are appreciative of the efforts that are being made throughout Ontario to develop contingency plans for pandemic influenza and similar communicable disease-related public health emergencies. We are also aware that even the most thorough examinations are liable to overlook certain mechanisms that would facilitate the rapid responses that careful preparation is meant to ensure. The enclosed Resolution, passed on November 22 2005 at alPHa’s Annual General Meeting, identifies community pharmacies as important components of public health emergency response as distributors of medical products and supplies, as well as information. Please see the attached Resolution for our rationale. We look forward to a response at your earliest convenience and please don’t hesitate to contact me with any questions. Yours truly, Linda Stewart, Executive Director Copy: Hon. Dalton McGuinty, Premier of Ontario Hon.

  • Our Society Lacks Consistently Defined Attitudes
    ‘OUR SOCIETY LACKS CONSISTENTLY DEFINED ATTITUDES TOWARDS THE BLACK BEAR’: THE HISTORY OF BLACK BEAR HUNTING AND MANAGEMENT IN ONTARIO, 1912-1987 by MICHAEL COMMITO, B.A. (HONS), M.A. McMaster University DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY (2015) Hamilton, Ontario (History) TITLE: ‘Our society lacks consistently defined attitudes towards the black bear’: The History of Black Bear Hunting and Management in Ontario, 1912-1987 AUTHOR: Michael Commito, B.A. (Hons) (Laurentian University), M.A. (Laurentian University) SUPERVISOR: Dr. Ken Cruikshank NUMBER OF PAGES: vii, 282 ii ABSTRACT What kind of animal was a black bear? Were black bears primarily pests, pets, furbearers or game animals? Farmers, conservationists, tourists, trappers, and hunters in early twentieth- century Ontario could not agree. Even as the century progressed, ideas about bears remained twisted and there was often very little consensus about what the animal represented. These varying perceptions complicated the efforts of the provincial Department of Game and Fisheries and its successor agencies, the Department of Lands and Forests and the Ministry of Natural Resources, to develop coherent bear management policies. Perceptions about black bears often conflicted and competed with one another and at no one time did they have a single meaning in Ontario. The image of Ontario’s black bears has been continuously negotiated as human values, attitudes, and policies have changed over time. As a result, because of various and often competing perspectives, the province’s bear management program, for most of the twentieth century, was very loose and haphazard because the animal had never been uniformly defined or valued. Examining the history of these ambiguous viewpoints towards the black bear in Ontario provides us with a snapshot of how culture intersects with our natural resources and may pose challenges for management.
