Reforming Equalization: Balancing Efficiency, Entitlement and Ownership
Authors: Dahlby Bev
Published: August 2024

In this paper, we provide an overview of the equalization grant system in Canada and the issues that have been raised concerning the reform of the fiscal transfer system. Any reforms to the equalization grant system have to balance three concerns — “efficiency” effects that arise through federal financing of transfers, and the incentive effects on provincial fiscal policies, “entitlement” to reasonably comparable public services at reasonably comparable levels of taxation, and “ownership” of resources and independence of fiscal policies by provincial governments. Five proposals for reform of the equalization system are discussed. With regard to the inclusion rate for resource revenues in equalization formula, we argue that the rate should be reduced from 50 per cent to 25 per cent and that ceiling on total equalization payments should be eliminated. We argue against the proposal to exempt from the calculation of equalization entitlements that are deposited in provincial sovereign wealth funds because this would not reduce total equalization entitlements in present value terms, it would be complex to implement if it extended to all forms of savings by provinces (such as debt reduction), and it would not alter the resource rich provinces’ incentives to save more of their resource revenues. We argue against a proposal to reduce CHT and CST to provinces with above average fiscal capacities because this would reduce their incentive to develop and tax their resources, and it would be counter to the purpose of these block grants, which is to reduce the vertical fiscal imbalance between the federal and the provincial governments. We review the Gusen (2012a) proto-type model for incorporating variations in costs and needs in the computation of the equalization entitlements and argue that this procedure seems feasible and merits further analysis.
Laying the Foundation for Policy: Measuring Local Prevalence for Autism Spectrum Disorder

Published: August 2024

Claims have been made that families with children living with autism spectrum disorders (ASD) have been migrating to Alberta because of higher funding available for ASD supports compared to other provinces. The legitimacy of these claims, along with many others about the adequacy or inadequacy of funding for supporting persons living with ASD, has not been evaluated because we simply don’t know how many people in Alberta are living with ASD. Typically in Canada, ASD prevalence is reported in national figures, based on international estimates. Canadian prevalence estimates for ASD are needed. With no national surveillance system in place, national estimates are difficult to determine. In addition, such broad measurements are problematic as they may not adequately inform the service delivery needs for specific jurisdictions. A new study shows that 1,711, or 1 in 94, school age children in the Calgary region have an ASD diagnosis. As this number matches what is often reported for the national prevalence of ASD, it suggests that Alberta’s relatively higher ASD funding is not inducing in-migration of families seeking better support. The data also show that the prevalence is higher in elementary-grade children, with a diagnosis in one of every 86 children. In the senior grades, there are significantly fewer students with ASD diagnoses, specifically within the Calgary Board of Education. There is no evident reason for diagnoses to seemingly dematerialize in the older grades. These students could be dropping out or choosing home-schooling in greater numbers. Possibly there has been an increase in prevalence. These prevalence estimates help to inform the demand for special-needs services within the local school system. In addition, there is growing concern that upon graduation there is a “support cliff” resulting from a less systematized, less generous support system available for adults with neurodevelopmental disability. Families that need support for ASD face enough challenges; it is critical for policy-makers to be aware of the extent of the situation in their own jurisdiction so as to develop the right kinds of supports for these families.
On Uncertain Ice: The Future of Arctic Shipping and the Northwest Passage
Authors: Lackenbauer Whitney , Lajeunesse Adam
Published: August 2024

The Arctic sea-ice is in a state of rapid decline. Barriers to navigation that once doomed the likes of Sir John Franklin and closed the shortcut to the Orient now seem to be melting away. The prospect of shorter, transpolar transportation routes linking Asian and Western markets has inspired excitement and fear, and particularly the latter when it comes to Canadian sovereignty. This paper confirms recent studies suggesting that, in spite of the general trend towards reduced ice cover in the Arctic Basin, environmental variability, scarce infrastructure and other navigational aids, and uncertain economics make it unlikely that the Northwest Passage will emerge as a viable trans-shipping route in the foreseeable future. Instead, the region is likely to witness a steady increase in resource, resupply, and tourist destinational shipping. Accordingly, concerns that this increased activity will adversely affect Canadian sovereignty are misplaced. Rather than calling into question Canadian control, foreign vessels engaged in local activities are likely to reinforce Canada’s legal position by demonstrating an international acceptance of Canadian laws and regulations. Rather than worrying about the “sovereignty” ramifications of Arctic shipping, the Canadian government should focus its short – and medium – term energies on the practical requirements of developing and maintaining safe shipping routes. At the heart of this requirement is ensuring that such activity is beneficial to Inuit, whose traditional “highways” will double as transits routes for resource carriers and cruise liners. If developed with an eye to those most directly affected, Canada’s Arctic waters can become a well-managed route to an increasingly attractive region, making our Arctic a destination rather than mere space through which to pass.
After America, Canada’s Moment?
Authors: Brodie Ian
Published: August 2024

The last decade has seen serious setbacks to the global role of the United States. Iraq, Afghanistan and the 2008 economic crisis provoked deep partisan debates about American policy but little in the way of consensus on how to respond. Meanwhile, America’s rivals have gained strength and a new south-south economy of investment and trade has emerged. There is little disagreement that the U.S. has lost its relative power to influence developments around the world. Is this Canada’s moment to extend our global influence?
Reflections on Calgary’s Spatial Structure: An Urban Economist’s Critique of Municipal Planning in Calgary
Authors: Arnott Richard
Published: August 2024

Affordable housing and a manageable commute are central to the well-being of Calgarians. Yet among larger Canadian metropolitan areas today, Calgary already has close to the most expensive housing, and the average journey-to-work time, close to 30 minutes, is as high today as it was in Los Angeles in 2000, when Los Angeles had a population 10 times larger. Decisions around how Calgary grows are based on the policies within The City’s Municipal Development Plan and the Calgary Transportation Plan, which together provide a blueprint for Calgary’s spatial development and transportation system. These plans— and therefore, their assumptions about future effects on congestion and rents — are based around a population forecast that does not reflect the historical growth pattern of the city and legitimizes spatial containment. The shortcomings in these plans, both adopted in 2009, are likely to result in longer commuting times and even more expensive real estate prices. These will be well beyond what The City has prepared citizens to expect and accept, as planners plow ahead with proposals to further entrench the downtown as the dominant employment centre. Calgarians need to be levelled with about the realities that come with pursuing a plan that calls for spatial containment and intensification centred on a single, dominant central business district. The plans present a vision of the “Good Urban Life,” and propose to enforce it through a particular choice of transportation system, through land-use regulation, and through a downtown parking freeze, with little regard to economics. The cost of this vision will in turn discourage new firms and new people from moving to Calgary. Calgarians should be informed about future transportation costs – for mass transit and automobiles – in congestion, time, and funding. And they must be informed about the effects this will all have on the cost of property for families and businesses. Only then can citizens properly consider their options and choose their city’s future. Without that Calgarians may find their quality of life diminished in ways they were never prepared to expect.
What Do We Know About Improving Employment Outcomes for Individuals with Autism Spectrum Disorder?
Authors: Dudley Carolyn , Zwicker Jennifer D.
Published: August 2024

WHY IS THIS AN IMPORTANT ISSUE?An estimated 1 in 86 children are diagnosed with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD)1 making it the most commonly diagnosed childhood neurological condition in Canada.2 Adults living with ASD3 have the poorest employment outcomes of those with disabilities. Most earn less than the national minimum hourly wage, endure extended periods of joblessness and frequently shuffle between positions, further diminishing their prospects. These poor employment outcomes result in lower quality of life and often lead to steep economic costs. WHAT DOES THE RESEARCH TELL US?Employment success increases quality of life Employment enhances quality of life, cognitive functioning and overall well-being of persons with ASD by increasing economic self-sufficiency, financial security, independent living, community participation and self-esteem.4, 5, 6 Unfortunately, employment outcomes for those living with ASD are poor; only 25 per cent of adults with ASD are employed, most of this group is considered high-functioning and only six per cent are competitively employed.7, 8 Success in employment is attributable to a combination of individual characteristics, external supports and policy enabling employment opportunities.
Laying the Foundation for Policy: Measuring Local Prevalence for Autism Spectrum Disorder
Authors: Dudley Carolyn , Zwicker Jennifer D.
Published: August 2024

WHY IS THIS AN IMPORTANT ISSUE?Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD)1 is the most common neurological condition diagnosed in children in Canada. Estimates of prevalence are reported as national numbers but may not reflect local numbers and consequently local needs. Local and provincial ASD prevalence estimates can be used by policy makers to inform local service delivery, resource allocation and future planning.WHAT DOES THE RESEARCH TELL US?ASD prevalence is on the rise Estimates of ASD prevalence in Canada have risen dramatically over the past several decades.2 The reason for the dramatic rise is uncertain and may be a result of a combination of a true rise in incidence, changing diagnostic criteria and increased awareness.3 It has been speculated that Alberta may have higher numbers of persons with ASD due to family in-migration to utilize higher levels of funding for ASD supports compared to other provinces.4 Prior to this study, there were no prevalence estimates for Alberta to assess this theory. A better understanding of Alberta ASD prevalence is critical as these estimates assist policy-makers, clinicians and educators in planning for school supports, adult day programs, employment programs, housing options and other programs essential to enhancing quality of life for individuals living with ASD and their families.

Optimizing Energy Efficiency in Wireless Sensor Networks: Challenges and Innovative Solutions: A Survey
Authors: Panwar Arun , Maurya Awadhesh Kumar , Pandey Rajnish , Singh Rajesh Kumar
Published: August 2024

The ubiquity of Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) in modern communication stems from breakthroughs in micro-electronics, enabling the creation of wireless micro-sensors that underpin their functionality. WSNs play a pivotal role in transmitting crucial environmental data to central Base Stations (BS), facilitating applications across diverse sectors such as artificial intelligence, healthcare, military operations, diagnostics, and environmental monitoring, including fire detection. Despite their widespread adoption, WSNs face persistent challenges in sensor node architecture. Random deployment strategies often result in coverage overlaps, communication inefficiencies, and suboptimal resource utilization, compounded by issues like low battery power and limited transmission capacity. These challenges necessitate the reduction of packet sizes to conserve energy and improve network efficiency. Moreover, the placement of sensor nodes in remote or inaccessible locations adds complexity to maintenance tasks, impacting network longevity and reliability. Addressing these challenges is imperative for sustaining efficient WSN operation and optimizing energy usage, driving the need for innovative protocols and energy-efficient strategies to enhance performance and ensure long-term viability across various WSN applications.

This article examines the role of constituency building and resource provision in the process of curriculum change in post-1980 Zimbabwe. It mainly utilises data from existent literature and documents to explore the role of these factors in curriculum change in the 1980 to 2014 and the 2015-2022 Zimbabwe Curriculum Framework for Primary and Secondary Education (ZCF 2015-2022). Based on an understanding that the curriculum change process encompasses phases of; initiation and conceptualisation, design, and implementation, the study examines how constituency building and resource provision impacted and can impact on these processes. The focus on constituency building and resource provision is on the realization that of the many variables that determine the nature and fate of curriculum change most are closely linked to these two factors. The study shows that in the period prior to 2015, curriculum change was spearheaded by the Curriculum Development Unit (CDU) Subject Panels (SP). In contrast, the ZCF (2015-2022) process was preceded by a new practice in constituency building in the form of a nationwide consultation exercise. With regards to resource provision, similar challenges were experienced in both the pre- and post-2015 periods. Overall, the level of constituency building, and resource provision efforts were far from being ideal. Main recommendation of the study is that attention to constituency building and resource provision in the various phases of the curriculum process would go a long way to ensure successful curriculation.
Love for Sale: Virtual Lovers Rental Services in Indonesia
Authors:   Postgraduate Study Program: Master of Communication, Bunda Mulia University, Jakarta, Indonesia, Louwbry Anastasya
Published: August 2024

The way interpersonal relationships, particularly romantic ones, are formed has gradually transitioned to the virtual realm. Digital communication media now serve as platforms where users can meet and establish relationships without the constraints of physical distance and face-to-face interactions. The phenomenon of Virtual Lovers, originating in China, explains how individuals offer services as virtual partners to accompany clients. This relationship can be understood through the concept of Mediated Relationship, where romantic relationships flourish without contextual limitations, using digital communication as the primary medium. This study aims to explore the virtual communication process and interpersonal relationships of a Virtual Lover in their profession. Using a constructivist paradigm and a qualitative approach, this study aims to examine the experiences and values of Virtual Lovers in situational romantic interactions with their clients. It was found that a Virtual Lover communicates with their client in a situational romantic relationship, engaging in conversations or sharing stories about life’s problems. Virtual Lovers create a self-profile reflecting how they wish to be perceived through virtual communication. This exchange of information builds familiarity and trust as their knowledge of each other deepens. Despite not meeting face-to-face, Virtual Lovers feel their persona as a talent is distinct from their real-life self, where talent must listen attentively and adapt to the needs of their clients. Agencies acting as intermediaries between clients and talents enforce various regulations to protect the privacy and security of all parties involved.

A Constituição Federal de 1988 simboliza um marco indelével na história brasileira, possibilitando uma nova configuração no campo do direito à educação e um novo arranjo no âmbito do financiamento educacional. A CF-88 simboliza evolução fundamental nessas duas frentes porque atua na garantia do direito à educação no que tange às diretrizes nacionais e estabelece regras sobre o financiamento da educação pública. O presente artigo visa contribuir com o alargamento do debate envolvendo a relação entre o direito à educação e o financiamento educacional desde a promulgação da Constituição Federal de 1988 até 2016. Este artigo tem por objetivo destacar o papel da CF-88 na garantia de recursos à educação, sobretudo a básica, bem como apontar os desdobramentos da Constituição Cidadã que propiciaram dispositivos nevrálgicos para as áreas do direito à educação e do financiamento educacional até 2016, como FUNDEF, FUNDEB, FIES, PROUNI e CAQi. Através de pesquisa bibliográfica, pretende-se colaborar indicando os marcos alcançados no direito à educação e no financiamento educacional a partir da CF-88, além de alertar acerca dos desafios que essas duas frentes precisam enfrentar.
THE CONVERGENCE OF CULTURES AS A PROBLEM OF POETICS (V. IVANOV, THE POETICAL CYCLE “ROSARIUM”)
Authors: MAGOMEDOVA DINA
Published: August 2024

The article analyzes the structure, genre repertoire and sources of the motif of “roses” in the poems of the V. Ivanov’s cycle “Rosarium” (a part of his book “Cor Ardens”). The special role of A.N. Veselovsky’ article “From the Poetics of the Rose” is noted. The structure of the cycle clearly implements the symbolist principle of “correspondences” (“one through different” and “different as one”). The rose motif, which unites all the poems in the cycle, reveals a common deep foundation in different cultural traditions. At the same time, the combination of heterogeneous cultural traditions, the convergence of different cultures both in the juxtaposition of cycles and in the structure of individual poems becomes the leading and fundamental artistic technique in the cycle.

A comparative analysis of the taxonomic and ecological structure of collembolan assemblages in the subcontinental oak-hornbeam forests of the Wigierski National Park with different projective coverages of hazel was carried out. The obtained results indicated that the fauna of the Collembola in the studied forests of the Wigierski NP is represented by 51 species belonging to 31 genera and 11 families. The fewest species were recorded in the areas without hazel, and the most were recorded with its participation. The obtained data indicate that the absence of hazel or its small presence leads to a decrease in the species richness of Collembola assemblages. On the other hand, the presence of hazel in the experimental plots of the oak-hornbeam forest allows more species of Collembola to survive both at the level of point and coenotic alpha-diversity richness according to P. Whittaker. This may indicate that in the studied forest communities with a significant presence of hazel, the capacity of the environment for Collembola increases, compared to those where hazel is absent or represented by a small number of woody shrubs. However, the detected changes in the studied taxocenes are insignificant and relate mainly to indicators of inventory species richness according to P. Whittaker, as well as the numerical ratio of species.

Anatomía de un instante de Javier Cercas: la novela democrática a debate
Authors: Minardi Adriana
Published: August 2024

En este artículo me propongo analizar algunos aspectos de lo que se llamó CT (o Cultura de la Transición [Martínez, Guillem, 2012; Labrador 2017]), en especial en lo que refiere al abordaje del intento de golpe del 23-F, hito fundacional de este proceso. Si la Transición fue pensada como un mito que interpretara un proceso, entonces el núcleo fue el 23-F[1], su mitema hegemónico, pues organiza una metaforicidad de la memoria entre la dictadura y la democracia incipiente. La condensación ideológica del 23-F transforma el pacto de la Transición política y visibiliza el desencanto de la clase intelectual y media española. De allí que surjan dos posibles lecturas: la que habilita la “paz” y aquella que pone en tensión la memoria de la Transición. La primera es la que analizaremos en Anatomía de un instante de Javier Cercas. A partir de la lectura, proponemos que la Transición ya no puede pensarse por fuera de su consistencia mediática. Pensar esta novela como un artefacto semiótico que opera ideológicamente sobre el ideologema de la “democracia incipiente” nos habilita también a criticar la tríada de héroes que se construye como eje programático y argumentativo de la trama.
Palabras clave: Transición; Memoria; Democracia; Novela; Golpe de estado.
 
[1] Nos referimos al 23 de febrero de 1981, fecha en la que se produjo el llamado “Tejerazo” o intento de golpe de estado al gobierno de Adolfo Suárez.

Entre el 1 y el 3 de diciembre de 2022 se llevó a cabo el V Congreso “¿Otro maldito congreso sobre la memoria?”, esta vez en Buenos Aires, en la UBA, gracias a un convenio entre este centro de estudios y la Universidad de Estocolmo. Fue la primera vez que la red tuvo su congreso en un país sudamericano después de más de dos años de relativo silencio forzado –las razones son más que conocidas por todos–. La Red Internacional de Investigación y Aprendizaje Memoria y Narración ha logrado con la publicación ahora de este número profundizar el eje transatlántico, teniendo en cuenta que lo que acerca a Europa y al pasado latinoamericano tienen especial vinculación en sus visiones, aproximaciones y discusiones sobre un tema que sigue siendo de una importancia central para todos países de habla hispana que, de una forma u otra, han sufrido y sufren las consecuencias de un pasado violento.
Entre las habitaciones y la ocupación de la ciudad: cómo construir la memoria del deseo
Authors: Lamarca Sofía B.
Published: August 2024

En este artículo se planteará la lectura comparada de Habitaciones, de la escritora entrerriana Emma Barradéguy (2020), y Su cuerpo era su gozo, de la española Beatriz Gimeno (2005). La primera es una obra cuyo género literario es, por lo menos, conflictivo. Presentada como una novela, alberga también las características de la autoficción y las memorias, y propone un recorrido de la narradora en primera persona por el mundo intelectual y el descubrimiento - y goce- de su deseo. Por otro lado, Su cuerpo era su gozo es claramente una novela construida a partir de un narrador en tercera persona que configura, a su vez, un relato desde la memoria de la protagonista. De esta manera, el objetivo de este texto es poner a dialogar las formas que ambos relatos tienen de organizar y desorganizar el deseo en el desvío, a la vez que entran y salen de los espacios privados para recorrer, ocupar y tomar el espacio público. Prestaremos especial atención a la construcción de una memoria de juventud para configurar el deseo desde el presente, dando cuenta de las formas de elaborar la exploración sexual y deseante de las infancias en ambas novelas, atendiendo también a los contextos sociopolíticos y las construcciones ideológicas particulares de cada texto. La propuesta es poner de manifiesto las posibilidades de resistencia del deseo desobediente en contextos represivos, y sostener como hipótesis que estas narrativas plantean una reorganización del deseo normativo en función de desestabilizar los modelos nacionales y heterosexuales.
Palabras clave: habitaciones, género, deseo, heterosexualidad, desvío.
