Page 5 of 25 RCMP Reminding Drivers About Intersection Safety Nova Scotia RCMP is reminding drivers and pedestrians about intersection-safety this winter. Winter weather can seriously impact road conditions which can make it challenging to stop quickly. Last week, RCMP members conducted a checkpoint to highlight intersection safety that resulted in 25 tickets being issued. Tickets were given to motorists who failed to stop at a red light or at a stop sign. This also included motorists who failed to stop at a red light before turning right. It's important to stay focused and alert when approaching an intersection so that you can see what is around you and prevent a collision. Being aware of your surroundings, changing lights and road conditions, can help keep you and others safe. Here are some tips to keep in mind: Drivers Drivers should take extra care to scan for pedestrians when it's dark as it can be difficult to see. Always drive to the road conditions. Leave lots of space between you and the car in front of you. Make a full stop at red lights and stop signs, even when turning right, and yield to oncoming traffic when turning left. Use your signal when making turns. Ensure it is safe to turn left before doing so. Drivers must yield to pedestrians at intersections, even when there is no marked crosswalk. When pedestrians are crossing, wait until they are safely across before proceeding ahead. Drive defensively. Even if you have the right of way, be aware of your surroundings when proceeding through an intersection. Page 6 of 25 Pedestrians Pedestrians and motorists should make eye contact before pedestrians cross in front of vehicles. Check traffic before crossing and only proceed when it is safe to do so. Always use crosswalks and pedestrian-activated signals when they are available. Wear reflective or brightly-coloured clothing if you're walking at night to be more visible. Don't be a distracted pedestrian. Remove headphones; put away cell phones, or other electronic devices when crossing the street. Nova Scotia RCMP would also like to remind motorists to buckle up, it could save your life. Did you know that not wearing a seatbelt is one of the four causal factors of serious and fatal motor vehicle collisions in Nova Scotia? Page 7 of 25 Nova Scotia Youth Release Video on Dangers of Sharing Intimate Images The Nova Scotia RCMP Youth Cybercrime Advisory Committee has released a short video on the dangers of sharing intimate images. The committee, which is a volunteer group made up of high school students from across Nova Scotia, identified this as a top area of concern for youth safety. An intimate image is a visual recording of a person. This includes photos and videos in which a person is nude, exposing their genitals, butt or breasts or is engaged in sexual activity. There are two videos: one is for a youth audience and the other is for parents, guardians and those that work with youth. In both videos, Nova Scotia RCMP Youth Cybercrime Advisory Committee members are interviewed for their perspective on the issue, what they believe the risks are and what can be done to protect youth. "We're asking Nova Scotians to share these videos with their social networks to discourage youth from requesting intimate images and to empower them to refuse requests for intimate images," says Cst. Jeff Wilson, School Safety Resource Officer for the Nova Scotia RCMP. "We also hope these videos to help adults better understand the issue and support the youth in their lives." Requesting and sending intimate images is dangerous for many reasons. It can result in trauma, sextortion, bullying, regret and even criminal charges for child pornography. Learn more about how you can protect yourself and others from the dangers of sharing intimate images by watching the videos on Facebook, Youtube or Twitter and share using the hashtag #StopAskingStopSending. Page 8 of 25 "It's happening all the time," says a youth interviewed in the video. "…Some (people) are as young as 13…when they get asked for pictures like that," says another. If you have concerns about an intimate image, contact your local police, or, if you live in RCMP jurisdiction, call the RCMP at 1-800-803-7267 (RCMP). The Nova Scotia RCMP Youth Cybercrime Advisory Committee is a group of high school students from across Nova Scotia. The committee works with School Safety Resource Officers to share information about cybercrime, cyberbullying and to identify cyber trends commonly used by youth. If you are interested in joining the committee, speak to your School Safety Resource Officer.

  • NSTU Professional Association October Conference Venue Survey Report
    NSTU Professional Association October Conference Venue Survey Report Prepared by: Nova Scotia Teachers Union January 2006 Copyright Nova Scotia Teachers Union, 2006 1 Background There has been on-going discussion about the various venues used by NSTU Professional Associations for the annual October Conference. Some members and some associations have expressed the belief that a combination of logistics (meeting space and size, hotel accommodation, parking, etc.), tradition and member preference has effectively mandated the conference venue to be in the Metro Halifax area. Other members and associations have held that providing their conference at alternate locations around the province has provided greater flexibility and accessibility for teachers. Most of this opinion has rested on an anecdotal base and therefore could not be used to provide meaningful guidance to NSTU Professional Associations. At its meeting of January 20-22, 2005, the Provincial Executive passed the following motion: That the NSTU conduct a survey of the membership with respect to location of conferences, the rotation of association conferences on a province-wide basis and the use of satellite conference sites for large associations. A draft survey, key actions and timetable were developed and presented to the Professional Associations Coordination Committee at its meeting on November 4, 2005 for input, revision and approval. The survey was finalized and approval given for its distribution to teachers prior to December 2005. Methodology A survey instrument was developed (see Appendix B) to determine teachers’ views concerning the venue for the annual October Professional Association conferences. Specifically, this instrument sought to determine whether teachers supported distributing the conferences around the province, the preferred venues and if there was support for the concept of rotating venues.

    Reports 112 Structure of the Minas Passage, Bay of Fundy: A Preliminary Report* DONALD J. P. SWIFT Duke University, Durham, N. C. FRANK L. JAGODITS Huntec Limited, Toronto, Ont. BERNARD L. MANISTRE Lockwood Survey Corporation Limited, Toronto, Ont. NORMAN R. PATERSON Huntec Limited, Toronto, Ont. Introduction From July, 1965 to March, 1966, a joint geological-geophysical study of the Minas Passage, Bay of Fundy, was undertaken by Huntec Limited of Toronto for the Atlantic Development Board of Canada. The purpose of the project was to test the feasibility of a tidal power station in the Passage. This paper presents a portion of the study, namely the structure of the geologically critical Minas Passage area and its bearing on regional structure. The Bay of Fundy is a funnel-shaped body of water lying between Nova Scotia and New Brunswick (Fig. 1). Fundy proper is 144 kilometers long, 100 kilometers wide at the base, and averages 75 meters in depth. The northeast end bifurcates into northeast-trending Chignecto Bay, and the east-trending Minas Basin. Three distinct bodies of water are included within the latter; the Minas Basin proper; the Minas Channel, separated from the basin by the great curved peninsula of Cape Blomidon-Cape Split; and the Minas Passage, connecting the Channel and the Basin (Fig. 2). ^Manuscript received 12 January, 1968.

  • INHUMAN TARGETS: Psychopathy, Dehumanization, and Sexist And
    INHUMAN TARGETS: Psychopathy, Dehumanization, and Sexist and Violent Attitudes Towards Women by TABITHA METHOT-JONES A thesis submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy Department of Psychology BROCK UNIVERSITY St. Catharines, ON December 2019 © Tabitha Methot-Jones, 2019 Dedication I dedicate this thesis to my family and friends, without your love and support none of this would have been possible. i Abstract The current work presents three studies that examined the role of dehumanization in the association between psychopathy and sexist and violent attitudes towards women. This program had two overarching goals in examining psychopathy, dehumanization, and sexist and violent attitudes towards women. The first goal was to examine whether an indirect association between psychopathy and negative attitudes towards women existed through dehumanization. The second goal was to explore if, by introducing information that humanizes women, levels of dehumanization could be mitigated for individuals high on psychopathic traits. Employing mixed samples for both studies (student and community), Study 1 (n = 514) and Study 2 (n = 202) provided evidence that psychopathy demonstrated an indirect relationship with sexist and violent attitudes towards women via dehumanization. Study 2 also expanded on Study 1 by including a behavioural measure of violent attitudes towards women. Finally, Study 3 (n = 206), again using a mixed sample, attempted to manipulate dehumanization to see if it, and the sexist and violent attitudes associated with it, would be mitigated. Unfortunately, the manipulation failed, but we were able to use the data from Study 3 to provide a replication of the results of Study 2.
