  • An Affront to the Charter and Canada's Collective Conscience?
    COMMENTAIRE CANADA'S NEW IMMIGRATION ACT: AN AFFRONT TO THE CHARTER AND CANADA'S COLLECTIVE CONSCIENCE? 1994 CanLIIDocs 114 par Mark Anthony DRUMBL* Cet article examinera la constitutionnalité du paragraphe 46.01(1) et du sous-alinéa 19(1)(c.1)(i) de la Loi sur l’immigration. Le paragraphe 46.01(1) prévoit que sont désormais exclus du processus de détermination du statut de réfugié au Canada tous ceux qui sont passés par un tiers pays «sûr» pour arriver au Canada, à la seule exception de ceux qui ne s’y trouvaient qu’en vue d’un vol de correspondance. En vertu de l’art. 19(1)(c.1)(i), toute revendication du statut de réfugié au Canada est irrecevable si l’intéressé a commis une infraction criminelle dans son pays d'origine. L’auteur soutient que ces dispositions violent les garanties procédurales de justice fondamentale prévues à l'article 7 de la Charte canadienne des droits et libertés. De plus, il soulève la possibilité que les droits conférés aux articles 11(d), 11(g), 12, 14 et 15(1) sont également enfreints par la Loi sur l’immigration. Ensuite, il aborde la question de savoir si ces violations constituent des limites raisonnables au sens de l’article premier de la Charte. Etant donné que les questions relatives à la politique d’immigration se trouvent actuellement au centre de nos débats de société, il devient de plus en plus difficile de maintenir l'équilibre entre les buts de la Loi et les obligations imposées sur le Canada par la Charte et par la Convention des nations unies relative aux réfugiés.

K. C. Cole developed the voltage clamp here, Stephen Polyak and C. J. Herrick did pioneering work on the anatomy of the retina and brain, and Jack Cowan and Hugh Wilson were among the first to develop mathematical analyses of the dynamics of cortical neurons using non linear dynamics. This tradition is continued in the Committee on Computational Neuroscience, which draws on faculty from many departments in all four graduate divisions in the University to create a multidisciplinary program in neuroscience. Computational neuroscience is a relatively new area of inquiry that is concerned with how components of animal and human nervous systems interact to produce behaviors.

There is a remarkable diversity of RGCs and the various subtypes have unique morphological features, distinct functions, and characteristic pathways linking the inner retina to the relevant brain areas. A number of psychophysical and electrophysiological tests have been refined to investigate this large and varied population of RGCs. Technological advances, such as high-resolution optical coherence tomography imaging, have provided additional tools to Edited by: Kenneth Shindler, define the pattern of RGC involvement and the chronological sequence of events in both University of Pennsylvania, inherited and acquired optic neuropathies.
