Topic Sheets REGION LAND TRANSPORTATION
REGION QUEBEC AND LÉVIS Topic Sheets © Dominique Baby The cities of Quebec and Lévis are part of the Communauté métropolitaine de Québec (CMQ), which includes a total of 28 municipalities. These two cities represent 85% of the total population of the CMQ which numbers 751 990 inhabitants in all. The special feature of this region is that it is divided by the St. Lawrence River, a natural barrier crossed by 35% of the residents of Lévis daily as they go to work in Quebec City! In 2006, 80% of the active population active of the CMQ travelled to work by car. More specifically, 5% 1 of the population of Lévis and 10% 2 of the population of Quebec used shared transportation for these trips. Did you know that ridership on the Réseau de transport de la Capitale (RTC) increased from 37.5 to 45.6 million pas - sengers between 2004 and 2008, an increase of more than 20% ? LAND TRANSPORTATION Before the construction of the Quebec Bridge, it was necessary to take a ferry or wait for the winter to cross the St. Lawrence, when an ice bridge joined the two shores. Quebec’s two bridges were built at the narrow - est point of the river, about 10 km upstream from Old Quebec . The name “Quebec” comes from the Algonquin word “kebec,” which means “where the river narrows.” THE QUEBEC BRIDGE From the time that construction began in 1904, the bridge collapsed twice, before finally being opened in 1919. Some debris from the bridge can still be seen today at low tide. -

QIP investments have reached a historic high, i.e. $130.5 billion over the next 10 years, up $15.1 billion from the last fiscal year. This means a total increase of over $30.1 billion that our Government is dedicating to the QIP for two years, an unprecedented but essential initiative to keep the infrastructure portfolio in good condition and support its growth based on emerging needs. Four priorities have been put forward in the development of the 2020-2030 QIP: education, with an additional $5.9 billion, mainly to expand and build primary and secondary schools; public transit, with an additional $3.3 billion and several new projects under study; health, which will benefit from an additional $2.9 billion, in part to build seniors' residences; and culture, with the deployment of the cultural itinerary of various cultural infrastructure in different regions of Québec. -

2002 Program
WELCOME to the FIRST JOINT INTERNATIONAL MEETING As an attendee of the American Dairy Science Association (ADSA), American Society of Animal Sci- ence (ASAS), and the Canadian Society of Animal Science (CSAS) joint meeting, you will be partici- pating in the first joint meeting of CSAS with ADSA or ASAS and the first joint meeting of ADSA and ASAS outside the United States. We could not have selected a more charming place than Québec City with its culture, architecture, and history to embark on these “firsts.” Like the other firsts, the scientific program is second to none. There were over 800 abstracts submit- ted for oral presentation (over 280 hours) in either scientific sessions or symposia. When you get tired of listening, you can continue learning by reading the more than 800 poster abstracts that will be displayed and visit the commercial exhibits. Thus, beginning on Saturday with the Joint EAAP- ASAS Workshop on Biology of Lactation in Farm Animals and ending with abstracts at 11:45 AM on Thursday, there are 124 total hours of time in which you can participate in over 280 hours of presen- tations, read hundreds of scientific abstracts, enjoy the charm of Québec City, and get a few hours of sleep. To highlight any symposia, invited papers, or particular scientific sessions is an injustice to all of the other cutting-edge, knowledge-leading opportunities available at this year’s meetings. Check out all of the latest information on symposia, scientific oral and poster sessions, plus the schedule of events on the website: www.fass.org/quebec02. -

CHAIRMAN'S MESSAGE During my chairmanship of the Archives' Section for 1972-73 much original work and thinking was done in the areas of copyright and literary rights in unpublished manuscripts, business records, archives training especially for the course we sponsor with the Public Archives of Canada, microfilm reading equipment, oral his tory and the revision of the Union List of Manuscripts. There is no apparent lack of interested workers; the challenge rather is to articulate the concerns and needs of the increasing numbers of archivists, The Canadian community of archivists is increasing in num bers. Our archival establishments have grown considerably and have elaborated the need for detailed understanding of specialized re cords handling, attendant gadgetry and specialized conservation procedures including the use of computerization in our control and description activities. Because this is so, the work of our com mittees is important. I cannot be sure how typical I am of archivists in public archives but the demands on me have been such that there is little respite to reflect at length on the broad issues of the Section. A chairman, and indeed the Section as a whole, needs a supportive framework which spreads the load and compensates for the necessity to be immersed in the work of our home archives. As I said to the Prairie Archivists in May, at a formative stage it is fine to be informal but I believe we have to move on now and be a little more organized if there is to be output. It is heartening to see the natural development of regional archivist groups. -
