Complexe récréatif Gadbois

Le Complexe récréatif Gadbois, communément appelé le Centre Gadbois, est une installation sportive polyvalente, située dans l'arrondissement Le Sud-Ouest de la ville de Montréal (Canada). Survol Le complexe récréatif Gadbois est le site officiel des Jeux du Sud-Ouest. Reconnu pour la qualité de ses installations, le complexe est le deuxième en importance à Montréal, après le complexe sportif Claude-Robillard, et le lieu de rassemblement des clubs sportifs de l’arrondissement. Le complexe comporte deux arénas : l'aréna Sylvio Mantha et l'aréna Georges Mantha, une piscine (Club Aquatique du Sud-Ouest), un centre d'entrainement d'haltérophilie (Le Club Les Géants), des gymnases (Gym Les Géants de Montréal), un dojo de judo (le club Judo-Monde). On y pratique aussi entre autres le tir à l'arc (Les Archers du Sud-Ouest), le karaté, le badminton, hockey et patinage. Historique Inauguré en octobre 1960 par l’honorable Sarto Fournier, alors maire de Montréal, le complexe honore la mémoire du docteur Joseph-Pierre Gadbois, directeur des terrains de Jeux de la Ville de Montréal de 1914 à 1930. Origine du nom Tout a commencé avec un parc sans nom. Situé dans le quartier Notre-Dame-de-Grâce mais desservant surtout les quartiers Côte-Saint-Paul et Saint-Henri, on le désignait souvent comme le parc des Conseillers ou le parc Côte Saint-Paul en raison de la rue qui le bordait. En 1959, le service des parcs suggère de le nommer « parc Gadbois ». Ce nom est adopté la même année. Il rend hommage à Joseph-Pierre Gadbois (1868-1930), surintendant des parcs et aussi considéré comme le père des terrains de jeux de Montréal.

Cosmodome

The Cosmodome (French: Cosmodôme) is a space science museum and education centre located in Laval, Quebec, Canada. Cosmodome is the home to both Space Camp Canada and the Space Science Centre (a museum). Space Camp Canada welcomed its first campers in July 1994 while the Space Science Centre opened its doors to the public in December 1994. History The Cosmodome opened in 1994, but was facing bankruptcy by 1997. It was rescued in March 1997 by a $11.9-million government bailout. The Space Science Centre The Space Science Centre is the only museum in Canada dedicated solely to the space sciences and houses one of two lunar rocks on display in Canada. The one featured was retrieved by astronaut James Irwin on the Apollo 15 mission. Space Camp Canada Space Camp Canada features 6 space simulators, described below. Each is designed to help the space camp trainee understand the difficulties of working in space. 1/6th Chair The 1/6th chair simulates lunar gravity by suspending the user in a chair connected to a series of springs on a rail which allows for movement in an allotted area. A trainee's challenge on the 1/6 chair is to pick up objects from the ground while bouncing. Zero G Wall The Wall of Weightlessness, also known as the Zero G Wall, uses a counterbalance to suspend the trainee in mid air. By filling the counterbalance with water until its weight is approximately that of the trainee, the trainee is free to move in the 3 translational directions. Missions are usually given to trainees to heighten the experience and generally consist of interacting, in one way or another, with a mock-satellite suspended in proximity to the wall. Space Station Mobility Trainer (SSMT) The SSMT was a device conceived with exercise while on-orbit in mind. It consists of a circular jogging pad in which a special chair and harness has been fitted. Once seated, the trainee may run freely forwards and backwards, rotating along the axis of the pad. Manned Maneuvering Unit The Manned Maneuvering Unit simulates the NASA vehicle of the same name. By forcing compressed air out of rubber pads, the Space Camp MMU functions as a hovercraft, and is hence able to move with little resistance. A series of motors controlled via user input allow for horizontal translations and rotations, and a large gear and hydraulic pump allow for 360 degree roll and 30 degree pitch respectively. Multi-Axis Chair A trainee is strapped to the multi-axis chair which spins on three axes, disorientating its occupant. The trainee's challenge at the multi-axis chair is to read words, identify images, and do other tasks while rolling in three dimensions simultaneously. Affiliations The Museum is affiliated with: CMA, CHIN, and Virtual Museum of Canada. References
Les Cours Mont-Royal

Les Cours Mont-Royal is an upscale shopping mall in the city's downtown core of Montreal, Quebec, Canada, which was converted from the former Mount Royal Hotel. Architecture The Mount Royal Hotel was designed by Ross and Macdonald, a prolific architectural firm in Montreal and across Canada. The ten-storey, 1036-room hotel was the largest in the British Empire. It was erected on the former site of the High School of Montreal at 1455 Peel Street. The construction of the Mount Royal Hotel in the Beaux-Arts architectural style was part of a larger trend in what was the largest city in Canada to attract high-class tourists with luxurious edifices. Other famous buildings by Ross and Macdonald in Montreal include Holt Renfrew, the Montreal Neurological Institute, the downtown Eaton's building (now Complexe les Ailes), the Dominion Square Building and Trinity Memorial Church in Westmount. History The hotel opened on December 20, 1922, managed by the United Hotels Company. It was sold by its owners, Cardy Hotels, to Sheraton Hotels in 1950, along with the company's other Canadian properties in Quebec and Ontario. The hotel was renamed the Sheraton-Mt. Royal Hotel in 1951. The hotel left Sheraton on March 31, 1982, when the nearby Le Centre Sheraton Hotel opened to replace it. The Mt. Royal Hotel closed on November 17, 1984. The building was gutted and renovated at a cost of $140 million and converted to a mixed-use complex with a shopping mall in the lower levels and basement, connected to the Underground City, and offices above. It reopened in 1988 as Les Cours Mont-Royal. The only interior remnant of the original hotel is the original lobby, which contains a huge chandelier taken from the Monte Carlo casino. The shopping area is organized around four large courts, hence the French name "Les Cours". Under the main skylight there are six bird-human sculptures by the Inuk artist David Ruben Piqtoukun. Tenants and facilities The top of the building has several floors of luxury condos. They have separate elevators and entrances, set apart from those of the shopping centre's street doors and subway tunnels. In between the top condo levels and the mall at the base there are several floors of office space. Les Cours Mont-Royal Shopping Centre is mainly composed of fashion retailers, with a few additional features and services including Montreal's largest spa (Spa Diva), a medical clinic (Les Cours Medical Centre) and a catwalk for fashion shows and other events. It is connected via the underground city to Peel metro station. References Ulysses Travel Guides Collective (2007). Montreal. Montreal: Ulysses Travel Guides. p. 99. ISBN 978-2-89464-797-4.

Cégep Garneau

The Cégep Garneau is a public French-language college in Quebec City, Quebec, Canada. History The college traces its origins to the merger of several institutions which became public ones in 1967, when the Quebec system of public colleges was created. It was established in 1969 by the merger of the Collège des Jésuites (Jesuit College) and École normale Laval (Laval Normal school) and was until 2012 known as Collège François-Xavier-Garneau. The college was named for François-Xavier Garneau, a nineteenth-century French Canadian notary, poet and historian. Programs The college offers two types of programs: pre-university and technical. The pre-university programs, which take two years to complete, cover the subject matters which roughly correspond to the additional year of high school as well as the first year of a four-year college undergraduate program given elsewhere in Canada in preparation for a chosen field in university (in Quebec, most non-engineering undergraduate programs take three years to complete). The pre-university programs allow students greater specialization in their preferred field of study. For example, the "Sciences de la Nature" (Natural Sciences) diploma incorporates multiple courses in physics, chemistry, biology, and mathematics, preparing students specifically for a university program in Sciences, Engineering, or Medicine, but is also widely accepted across most non-scientific university programs. The technical programs, which take three years to complete, apply to students who wish to be career-ready. However, many students choose to pursue a university degree. In addition, the Continuing Education Centre offers a wide variety of credit courses and programs with flexible scheduling. Partnerships The College of General and Vocational Education is affiliated with the Association of Canadian Community Colleges (ACCC) and the Canadian Colleges Athletic Association (CCAA).

Коледж загальної та професійної освіти імені Франсуа-Ксав'є Ґарно

Коледж загальної та професійної освіти імені Франсуа-Ксав'є Ґарно (фр. Collège d’enseignement général et professionnel François-Xavier Garneau), скорочено — Коледж Ґарно (фр. Cégep Garneau) — франкомовний публічний міжнародний коледж у Квебеці. Коледж названо на честь Франсуа-Ксав’є Ґарно. Коледж Ґарно є членом національної асоціації Коледжів та інститутів Канади. Історія У зв'язку із реформами та із запровадженням в державних навчальних закладах Квебеку освітньої системи Cégep у 1967 розпочалося об'єднання навчальних закладів та створення коледжів загальної та професійної освіти. В результаті цього процесу в серпні 1969 році було створено Коледж загальної та професійної освіти імені Франсуа-Ксав'є Ґарно, до якого увійшли «Єзуїтський коледж» (фр. Collège des Jésuites), «Нормальна школа ім. Анжели Мерічі» (фр. l’École Normale Mérici) та «Нормальна школа Лаваля» (фр. l’École Normale Laval). До 1990 коледж носив назву Коледж загальної та професійної освіти імені Франсуа-Ксав'є Ґарно (фр. Cégep François-Xavier-Garneau), після 1990 — Коледж імені Франсуа-Ксав'є Ґарно (фр. Collège François-Xavier Garneau), а у 2012 у назву замість «Collège» повернули термін «Cégep» [ˈsiːdʒɛp]. Коледж запровадив у навчальний процес освітню програму «IB World School» (укр. «Світової школи міжнародного бакалаврату») і 20 січня 1995 року успішно пройшов процедуру акредитації програми, орієнтованої на учнів старших класів — «Diploma Programme» (укр. Програма для здобуття диплома) власником та розробником цієї програми, некомерційним освітнім фондом «International Baccalaureate®». Освітні програми Учням коледжу пропонуються освітні програми для здобуття двох видів дипломів: стандартного для Квебеку «Диплому Коледжу» (англ. Diploma of College Studies DCS), (фр. Diplôme d'études collégiales чи DEC); диплому міжнародного бакалаврату. Диплом коледжу визнається і приймається практично усіма університетами Північної Америки, багатьма франкомовними країнами і, в першу чергу, усіма університетами Квебеку. Для здобуття «диплому коледжу» передбачено ряд освітніх програм залежно від того, до якого університету учень планує вступати. Ці програми можна розділити на два типові для Квебеку види: програми доуніверситетської підготовки, розраховані на два роки (університети загальноосвітнього та гуманітарного спрямування); програми технічної підготовки, розраховані на три роки (університети спеціалізованого та технічного спрямування). Диплом міжнародного бакалаврату визнається і приймається більше, ніж 2 337 університетами у 90 державах світу, у тому числі, і Канади та Квебеку.

Cégep de Sainte-Foy

Cégep de Sainte-Foy is a French-language CEGEP in Quebec City, Quebec, Canada. It is located in the borough of Sainte-Foy–Sillery–Cap-Rouge. There are nearly 8,000 students registered at the college, making it one of the largest in the province outside of Montreal. It was founded in 1967. History In 1967, cegeps were established in the province of Quebec, following the criticism brought by the Rapport Parent. Indeed, before the law 60 was adopted, the costs to access to higher education were too expensive, the level of education was too poor and the admission to superior school was too strenuous. This legislation led to the construction of twelve cegeps in Quebec, including the Cégep de Sainte-Foy. The Cégep de Sainte-Foy was founded on July 1, 1967. However, the education system began long before that. Actually, in 1862, the Institute of the Brothers of the Christian Schools created The Quebec Commercial Academy, located on Auteuil's street, which welcomed one hundred and fifty anglophone students. At that time, only boys were allowed to study at that college. In 1865, this institution moved to the intersection of Sainte-Angèle and Elgin's streets. Having proven themselves as a credible educational facility, they moved once again in 1893 to Cook's street and were in the obligation to expand the establishment to Chauveau's Avenue, due to the excessive number of students attending the school. In reason of its growing clientele, The Quebec Commercial Academy sold its installations, which were located at the center of Vieux-Québec, to the provincial government. In 1961, the construction of the new school began on Chemin Sainte-Foy. However, it is only in 1962 that the establishment is ready to welcome students. Since 1965, the school opens its doors to girls. It is officially named Cégep de Sainte-Foy in 1967.
