  • ANNUAL REPORT 2009 - 2010 from the Director
    School of Pharmacy ANNUAL REPORT 2009 - 2010 From the Director I am very pleased to present Memorial University’s School of Pharmacy 2009- 2010 annual report. This report provides an overview of how our program is affecting the future of health care in Newfoundland and Labrador and shows our appreciation to our alumni, friends and corporate partners who make this possible. For over 20 years, the School has been growing as a place of innovation, creativity and excellence in pharmacy education. Since 1989, we have graduated 702 students. We are proud to know that they now work in every corner of our province and country, as well as around the world, in all aspects of pharmaceutical practice and research. Our need to continue this growth is spurred by a regional urgency for more pharmacists in our health care system. During the past year we have been engaged in a number of activities as we plan to increase student enrolment. The lack of physical facilities to accommodate larger classes and faculty and staff present unique challenges. In their 2009 review, the Canadian Council for Accreditation of Pharmacy Programs identified the School’s growth is at risk due to inadequate space and facilities. We will continue to work with government to address this challenge, expand the program and satisfy the requirement for more pharmacy graduates to help meet the health care needs of Newfoundlanders and Labradorians. I am extremely proud of the accomplishments of our faculty, staff and students and I am glad you are taking the time to review this report.

Herb Wyile Acadia University James McLeod. Turmoil, as Usual: Politics in Newfoundland and Labrador and the Road to the 20 15 Election. St. John’s: Creative Publishers, 2016. isbn 978-1-77103-081-6 The cottage industry of Newfoundland and Labrador political writ- ings is a very small but passionate market. Every so often, one of the local presses publishes a work that fulfills a broader purpose of being both entertaining and of historic value. The splendidly namedTurmoil, as Usual is one such book. Turmoil, as Usual is a fun, easy read while simultaneously acting as a repository of information. James McLeod is a Telegram reporter who has been covering the province’s political scene since 2011. The book, his first, is a compendium of events that transpired between2012 and 2015, a tumultuous period resulting from a leadership vacuum after populist Danny Williams retired as Progressive Conservative Party leader and Premier. The politicking that McLeod describes would be laughable if it were not such strong evidence of the elitist and anti- quated nature of Newfoundland democracy. It is only by living through the political instability of that time that one can truly appreciate its absurdity. The list of events is too long to get into here.

  • Gendering Environmental Assessment: Women’S Participation and Employment Outcomes at Voisey’S Bay David Cox1 and Suzanne Mills1,2
    ARCTIC VOL. 68, NO. 2 (JUNE 2015) P. 246 – 260 http://dx.doi.org/10.14430/arctic4478 Gendering Environmental Assessment: Women’s Participation and Employment Outcomes at Voisey’s Bay David Cox1 and Suzanne Mills1,2 (Received 12 February 2014; accepted in revised form 3 September 2014) ABSTRACT. This paper examines the effect of Inuit and Innu women’s participation in environmental assessment (EA) processes on EA recommendations, impact benefit agreement (IBA) negotiations, and women’s employment experiences at Voisey’s Bay Mine, Labrador. The literature on Indigenous participation in EAs has been critiqued for being overly process oriented and for neglecting to examine how power influences EA decision making. In this regard, two issues have emerged as critical to participation in EAs: how EA processes are influenced by other institutions that may help or hinder participation and whether EAs enable marginalized groups within Indigenous communities to influence development outcomes. To address these issues we examine the case of the Voisey’s Bay Nickel Mine in Labrador, in which Indigenous women’s groups made several collective submissions pertaining to employment throughout the EA process. We compare the submissions that Inuit and Innu women’s groups made to the EA panel in the late 1990s to the final EA recommendations and then compare these recommendations to employment-related provisions in the IBA. Finally we compare IBA provisions to workers’ perceptions of gender relations at the mine in 2010. Semi-structured interviews revealed that, notwithstanding the recommendations by women’s groups concerning employment throughout the EA process, women working at the site experienced gendered employment barriers similar to those experienced by women in mining elsewhere.
