Electrofishing Data from Nova Scotian Rivers (SFA 18A, 18B)

PURPOSE:
To track juvenile Atlantic salmon densities.

DESCRIPTION:
Indices of freshwater production are derived annually from electrofishing surveys in the rivers of Nova Scotia flowing into the Gulf of St. Lawrence. Fixed site sampling for juvenile salmon has been conducted most consistently since the mid-1980s for these rivers. Juvenile salmon abundances at sites, in terms of number of fish per habitat area sampled by age or size group (densities), are obtained using successive removal sampling or catch per unit effort sampling calibrated to densities. Sampling intensities vary among years and among rivers.
            
PARAMETERS COLLECTED:
distribution (ecological); species counts (ecological); point (spatial)

USE LIMITATION:
To ensure scientific integrity and appropriate use of the data, we would encourage you to contact the data custodian.

Skills and Competencies Taxonomy Data (SCT) 2025 -Version 1.0

The Skills and Competencies Taxonomy (SCT) streamlines the terminology of hundreds of occupational descriptors used in the labour market. Each descriptor is associated with one of the seven categories (skills, abilities, personal attributes, knowledge, interests, work context and work activities), which are then further divided into sub-categories. 

 

The SCT is one of the two pillars of the Occupational and Skills Information System (OaSIS), which provides measurement indicators for most descriptors in the Taxonomy across more than 900 occupations. 

 

The 2025 version of the SCT was updated to remove all Oxford commas, correct syntax errors, and implement both minor and major changes to labels and descriptor definitions for clarification. Significant changes were made to the Work Activities section as a result of the ongoing development of task statements by profile for the OaSIS. Many labels and descriptor definitions were clarified, and twelve descriptors were removed because they were not mutually exclusive and overlapped with others. The removed descriptors are: Comparing, Document Use, Information Synthesis, Facilitating Group Discussion, Interviewing, Artistic Designing, Catering, Performing Janitorial Services, Constructing, Debugging and Reprogramming, Manipulating– Operating, and Sorting. These descriptors had not been integrated into the OSIS and therefore did not have ratings. In addition, two descriptors were relocated: Working with Computers was moved to Work Context / Structural Job Characteristics, and Writing or Composing was moved from Work Activity / Physically-Oriented Activities to Work Activities / Information-Oriented Activities.  Finally, “Performing administrative activities” was reinstated in the SCT with a modification to its original definition and “Documenting and recording information” reverted to its original definition: Entering, transcribing, recording or maintaining any type of information in written or electronic form. Both descriptors were retained under Work Activities / Information-Oriented Activities.

BC Surgical Wait Times

B.C. surgical wait times for elective surgical procedures in British Columbia for patients of all ages. This data includes scheduled inpatient and day surgery cases. This data does not include unscheduled surgical cases. The catalogue provides data from fiscal year 2009/10 to current. Three files are provided: 1. An interim quarterly file with current fiscal year quarters only; 2. A quarterly file with historical data; and 3. An annual file with historical data. The quarterly and annual files with historical data are updated in September to include data for the previous fiscal year. The complete dataset is subject to restating, when necessary, to reflect current reporting requirements as determined by the Ministry of Health in conjunction with the health authorities. Additional information: Cases waiting: The number of cases waiting is captured at a point in time, i.e., either at the end of the quarter or fiscal year. Cases completed: The number of cases completed captures scheduled surgeries that are completed within each quarter as well as within each fiscal year. Wait time percentiles (50th and 90th) are calculated in weeks based on scheduled surgeries that are completed within each quarter as well as within each fiscal year. They are Wait for Surgery (Wait Two) wait times, from the date the health authority receives the booking form to the date that the patient receives surgery. Since percentiles cannot be calculated on data that is already aggregated, they are provided at all levels within each file. Small numbers: All values less than 5 and their corresponding wait times are suppressed. Therefore, rows with total volumes may not match the sum of sub rows. For example, the All Facilities row may not match the sum of the individual facilities if there is one with a suppressed value less than 5. Each fiscal year begins on April 1st and ends on March 31st of the following calendar year. For example, fiscal year 2023/24 begins on April 1st, 2023 and ends on March 31st, 2024. The fiscal year is divided into quarters as follows: Q1: April 1st - June 30th Q2: July 1st - September 30th Q3: October 1st - December 31st Q4: January 1st - March 31st

CCISS Environmental Suitability Ratings

This dataset contains the environmental suitability ratings of tree species for British Columbia and adjacent jurisdictions (Northwestern United States and Alberta) at a site series level. These ordinal ratings (E1-5) reflect the probability for successful establishment and growth of a species across the entire environmental space of a site series in the baseline (pre-climate change) climate normal period of 1961-90. The environmental suitability ratings focus on how well the species is suited to the climatic and site (i.e. edaphic) conditions of a site series regardless of management objective. Tree species environmental suitability ratings refer to the degree to which a tree species can be successfully established and maintained to maturity under specific climatic & edaphic conditions in the absence of independent limiting factors such as biotic (e.g. forest health) or abiotic (e.g. fire) disturbances. The baseline environmental suitability does not include regions where a species is absent in natural stands due to non-climatic or site level factors such as unfavourable disturbance regimes or migration lags. Please see Data Dictionary for important information on data use.

CCISS Western North America BEC Tables

These data tables describe biogeoclimatic units for Western North America. These data were assembled as inputs to the Climate Change Informed Species Selection (CCISS) framework. The CCISS framework is built on Biogeoclimatic Ecosystem Classification (BEC). CCISS uses spatial climatic analogs (BEC subzone/variants) to make inferences about future tree species suitability, known as biogeoclimatic projections. Creating species suitability projections for the future climates of British Columbia requires finding climate analogs in Alberta and the Western US. For Alberta, we adapted the Ecological Classification of Alberta (e.g., Archibald et al. 1996), with 21 natural subregions (Natural Regions Committee 2006) as the biogeoclimatic map units and 167 ecological sites as the site series units. For Washington, Idaho, Montana, Oregon, northern California, and northwestern Wyoming, we use a draft biogeoclimatic ecosystem classification for the Western US developed by Del Meidinger and Will MacKenzie. Biogeoclimatic units are detailed in the: Western North America Biogeoclimatic Units Attribute Table. The CCISS tool predicts climate change implications to tree species environmental suitability at a site series level. We have compiled sites series information for Western North America biogeoclimatic units, detailed in; Site Series Information Table and Edatopic Space Table.

Swan Hills Treatment Center : PCBs and PCDD/F in wild game and fish tissue (1999-2014)

The Swan Hills Treatment Centre (SHTC) is a facility for the safe disposal of special wastes located approximately 12 km northeast of the town of Swan Hills, AB. On October 16, 1996, a malfunction of a transformer furnace was discovered to have caused the release of a portion of process gases containing polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs), polychlorinated dibenzo-p-dioxins and dibenzofurans (PCDD/Fs) into the ambient air. These chemicals can be harmful to human health. Therefore, in 1997 Alberta Health (AH) conducted a human health risk assessment study to estimate human exposure and to evaluate the effectiveness of public health interventions. As a result of the study, food consumption advice for wild game and fish taken within a 30 km radius of the facility were issued out of concern that PCBs and PCDD/Fs were accumulating in these locally caught foods. A long-term environmental monitoring and human exposure assessment program has been ongoing since 1998 to monitor concentrations of PCBs and PCDD/Fs in wild game and fish. The purpose of this program is to review the existing food consumption advice in the context of ongoing fish and wild game test results to protect the health of local residents. Eight fish and seven wild game follow up sampling campaigns were conducted between 1997 and 2014. This dataset includes the concentrations of PCBs and PCDD/Fs in fish from 2000 to 2014 and in deer from 1999 to 2014. For additional information, refer to four project reports that have been posted on AH’s website (1997, 2004, 2009, and 2013). In 2012, the wild game advice was revised from limiting the consumption of game collected within a 30 km radius of the facility to game collected within a 15 km radius of the facility. This change was informed by the ongoing tissue monitoring and decreasing levels of contamination in wild game.

Cloud brokering requests fulfilled within established service level standards

The average time to fulfill brokered cloud hosting service requests reflects the Shared Services Canada rate of response to client requests which is an effective indicator of the brokering service.  

The percentage will indicate the proportion of the requests that have been filled within the expectation of the service level standards in place with customers.

Calculation / formula: The number of days from receipt of a formal request from a client organization in the request intake system to the delivery of the account. Formula is total number of requests (all levels of complexity) filled within service level standards divided by the total number of requests (all levels of complexity) times 100%. 

From the day the contracted services are available for use based on the number of days from receipt of a formal request from a client organization in the request intake system to the delivery of the account.

There are 2 levels of complexity which determines the OLA (Operating Level Agreement). 1)  Low risk requests: 5 business days; 2)High risk requests: No standard developed yet  (Outcome of high-risk requests are outside of SSC’s control; managed by GC EARB.).

It has been said that Australia is Canada in a swimsuit. That is, beyond better beaches and warmer weather (or smaller mountains and worse, snow!), Australia can look a lot like its friend in North America. Both countries feature massive, lightly populated landmasses; they mirror one another with their indigenous then European settler past and multicultural present; and of course, both are modern, English-speaking nations — right?
