You may want to use the game in different ways. 1. You can informally play the game in pairs or teams. The answers are in the back of the booklet. a) In pairs or small groups you each get a set number of questions. You then have to go find the answers in books or by interviewing other people.Whoever finds the answers in the shortest time, wins. b) You can match a reader and a non-reader. The reader has to read the questions aloud to the non-reader.The non- reader has to think up places (other than the back of the book) that the reader could find the answer. They both get credit when the correct answer is found. 2. You can cut up sections of questions and put them on "trivia" cards. Answers could be taped on the back of each card. 3.

    Manitoba Government NEWS Public Information Branch Legislative Bldg., Winnipeg SERVICE MANITOBA Phone 946-7439 Date: October 25, 1968. NEW THh PAS BKIMit KEY TO NORTH ROADS Number 10 highway in northern Manitoba is undergoing a major facelifting. Included are a new bridge at The Pas, re-location of the roadway in the vicinity of Flin Flon, and paving and improvement programs in the vicinity of The Pas. Latest step in this development was the ceremony held Saturda71 October 19, to mark the start of work on the bridge over the Saskatchewan River at The Pas. Transportation Minister Stewart E. McLean referred to the bridge as a "new and vital link" in the northern road system of the province. Participating in the ceremony were Minister of Consumer and Corporate Affairs John B. Carroll, Minister of Labour C.H. Witney, Mayor Harry Trager of The Pas, and Chief Gordon Lathlin of The Pas Indian band. The $1.63 million bridge is to be made of steel and re-inforced concrete and will be about 1,200 feet long. The new bridge is to be finished in the late fall of 1969, and will improve truck service into the north, which is now handicapped by load restrictions on the present obsolete bridge. Tenders have been opened for the grading of the last portion of the re-location of No. 10 highway at Flin Flon. Low bid of the six submitted is $259,746 from Pneumatic Drilling and Blasting Limited of St. James. This covers 1.5 miles and includes blasting and removal of 47,000 cubic yards of rock, with work to be completed by next summer.

    The Construction of the Gang in British Columbia: Mafioso, Gangster, or Thug? An Examination of the Uniqueness of the BC Gangster Phenomenon By Keiron McConnell M.Sc. Public Order Policing, Leicester University, 2004 B.G.S., Open University of BC, 2002 Thesis Submitted in Partial Fulfilment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Policing, Security and Community Safety John Grieve Centre Faculty of Social Sciences and Humanities © Keiron McConnell 2015 London Metropolitan University September 2015 Abstract This thesis explores the structure, demographics, and history of gangs in British Columbia (BC), Canada, through a social constructionist lens. The purpose of this research is for the reader to consider the current state of gangs in BC as inherently different from other places in the world, to assist in understanding why there may be misconceptions, and to promote the research and implementation of more appropriate context-specific interventions. Building on previous work conducted as a Vancouver Police officer of over 27 years, I participated in field observations with gang units in Toronto and Hobbema, Canada; Chicago and Los Angeles, USA; and London, England. I also examined gang typologies and definitions in academic literature as a segment of the historical context of gang research and highlight how these bodies of literature contribute to the social construction of gangs. A historical review of media-reported gang violence in BC from 1903 to 2012 demonstrates that gang violence is not a new phenomenon, and its history is an essential element in the constructed concept of the gang. As well, I conducted semi-structured interviews with participants who either police gangs, work with gangs, or were former gang members to get their perspectives on the issue.
