    Number 77 WITH Markus Buchart, former leader, the Green Party of Manitoba MARKUS BUCHART has a B.A. (Hons.) from the University of Manitoba and an M.A. from McGill University, both in economics. He worked for six years as a Manitoba government economist, primarily in the finance department in tax policy and federal- provincial fiscal relations, and later in the environment department. He subsequently earned an LL.B. from the University of Manitoba and currently practices law, mostly civil litigation, at the Winnipeg firm of Tupper & Adams. Mr. Buchart was the leader of the Green Party of Manitoba from 1999 to 2005. He sometimes describes himself as "a recovering economist and politician.” This interview followed a speech, “Dissipated Energy,” delivered at a Frontier Centre breakfast on September 6, 2006. Frontier Centre: To what degree do you think the power. But they become efficient in other ways, too. Take, Province of Manitoba is under-pricing the domestic sale for example, Japan or Germany, or some of the western of electricity? It’s called “power at cost,” but isn’t it European economies.

Manitoba Hydro says it get used to that cost environment and they end up costs about four cents a kilowatt hour to produce, but becoming more competitive generally, not just in terms of they sell it locally for about three. their power consumption. In a way, we’re attracting the dinosaurs and non-competitive industries to come here, and Markus Buchart: Yes, they admit that. At a Public Utility that’s just a losing game.

    Questioning the SENIOR COHOUSING CHALLENGE: a Cross-Sector Analysis of Interviews with Leading Experts

    Questioning the SENIOR COHOUSING CHALLENGE: A Cross-Sector Analysis of Interviews with Leading Experts by Lynn Pfeffer A thesis submitted to the Faculty of Graduate and Postdoctoral Affairs in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Architectural Studies Carleton University Ottawa, Ontario © 2018 Lynn Pfeffer Abstract Seniors will make up an unprecedented 25% of Canadians by the year 2030. This demographic shift will challenge our society to address the basic human right of a dignified and healthy aging. One troubling aspect of aging is the degree to which seniors experience isolation and loneliness. Cohousing can offer older adults a place to age in place, within a ‘community-of-care’. However, the challenges of creating senior cohousing are numerous – the failure rates staggering. What factors contribute to this challenge? What could the way forward look like? This thesis searches for answers in the perspectives of professionals representing sectors of the development process. Interviews were conducted with experts in: non-profit housing, housing policy, development consulting, and private real-estate. Focusing on urban senior cohousing in Ottawa, Convivium Cohousing is used as a case study to ground the theory. It is expected findings will transfer to other parts of Canada. ii Acknowledgments With the deepest gratitude and respect, I thank my supervisor Federica Goffi for her unwavering support and encouragement. Your uncanny ability to know when to give feedback and when to listen is deeply appreciated. To all those who participated so generously and willingly in the interviews for this thesis, I am indebted to you for your insights and expertise.
