description: Les associations porte-parole des francophones du Canada, entre les années 1960 et 2010, ont vu leurs priorités changer. Alors que de 1960 à 1980, le thème de l’immigration est absent de leurs préoccupations, celui du pluralisme était loin de faire l’unanimité. Entre 1980 et 1990, les choses commencent à changer. Les deux thèmes – immigration et pluralisme – commencent à émerger au sein des associations, et un certain flou se dessine quant à leur vision de ces thèmes. D’autres acteurs ont d’ailleurs une influence très importante sur ce changement : le gouvernement fédéral, les gouvernements provinciaux, ou encore des acteurs individuels impliqués dans les associations francophones. Ces acteurs évoluent au sein de moments clés, qui émergent du contexte politique dans lequel les thèmes finissent par s’imposer. Ainsi, entre 1991 et 2010, l’on peut constater que, pour les associations francophones du Canada, l’immigration et le pluralisme deviennent des thèmes prioritaires.

description: Conservation is plagued by the issue of prioritization - what to conserve and where to conserve it - which relies on identification and assessment of risks. In this body of work, I identify some of the risks related to climate change impacts on biodiversity, as well as potential solutions. Climate changes are underway across nearly all terrestrial areas and will continue in response to greenhouse gas emissions over centuries. Other extinction drivers, such as habitat loss due to urbanization, commonly operate over localized areas. Urbanization contributes, at most, less than 2% of the total range loss for terrestrial species at risk when averaged within an ecodistrict (Chapter 2). Documented impacts of climate change, to date, include: extinction, population loss, reduction in range area, and decreased abundance for multiple taxonomic groups. Examining species’ and populations’ physiological limits provides insight into the mechanistic basis, as well as geography, of climate change impacts (Chapter 3). Climate changes, and the ecological impacts of climate changes, are scale-dependent. Thus, the biotic implications are more accurately assessed through comparisons of local impacts for populations. Under a scenario of climate change, equatorward margins may be strongly limited by climatic conditions and not by biotic interactions. Yet, geographic responses at poleward margins do not appear directly linked to changes in breeding season temperature (Chapter 4). New ideas on how regions with attenuated climate change (climate refugia) may be used to lower species climate-related extinction risk while simultaneously improving habitat connectivity should be considered in the context of potential future consequences (i.e. range disjunction, alternative biological responses) (Chapter 5). Contemporary climate refugia are identifiable along multiple climatic dimensions, and are similar in size to current protected areas (Chapter 6). Determining how, when, and where species distributions are displaced by climate change as well as methods of reducing climatic displacement involves integrating knowledge from distribution shift rates for populations, occurrence of climate refugia, and dispersal barriers. Such assessments, in the Yellowstone to Yukon region, identify dramatically different pathways for connectivity than assessments that are not informed by considerations of species richness and mobility (Chapter 7).

Abstract
Complex Journeys and Theory as Scaffolding: An Illustrated Guide to the SoTLscape
Creators: Miller-Young, J.
Publisher: name: University of Alberta Library
Year: 2024

In “Complex Journeys and Theory as Scaffolding: An Illustrated Guide to the SoTLscape,” Janice Miller-Young experiments with how illustration can contribute to the SoTL discourse. In a graphic essay consisting of four illustrations, she encourages readers to think meta about SoTL in order to situate themselves and their work within a landscape of practice. If scholars need to compare their findings with others who’ve done similar studies, a meta-level view helps them see how to look across studies and create meaning. Her illustrations pull together ideas from the literature on SoTL, identity, career development, academic development, and communities of practice. In the first two illustrations, she highlights literature that contributes to her working definition of SoTL and demonstrates how she thinks of it as a six-dimensional space. In the second two illustrations, she shows some of her own SoTL research trajectories, explores what a “landscape” might look like if we are not constrained to three dimensions, and introduces the metaphor of theory as scaffolding. Ultimately, her chapter complements the taxonomy in the previous chapter, as both present very different tools for experienced SoTL scholars to chart their path through the “SoTLscape.”
La construction de l'identité dans une école indépendante: Le cas d'une école musulmane à Montréal
Creators: name: Essid, Souhaiel

description: L’identité musulmane des jeunes qui fréquentent une école religieuse indépendante à Montréal représente l’intérêt central de cette thèse. D’une manière plus spécifique, notre étude porte sur la manière dont les jeunes construisent leur identité musulmane au carrefour de la culture québécoise et d’un patrimoine religieux minorisé, au sein d’une école indépendante où la religion musulmane est dominante. Pour ce faire, nous visons trois objectifs : a) l’étude des marqueurs d’identification religieuse des jeunes; b) les différentes identités qu’ils construisent dans un environnement scolaire majoritairement musulman; c) les conceptions que produisent les jeunes de leur religion et de leur héritage culturel dans un contexte minoritaire non musulman. À travers l’étude de cas d’une école musulmane à Montréal, nous avons adopté les outils de la méthode ethnographique pour la cueillette des données, à savoir l’observation ethnographique, les discussions de groupe et les entretiens individuels et l’analyse de documents relatifs à la pensée islamique en général. Le cadre d’analyse des données tient compte des parcours historique et relationnel des jeunes participants dans leur construction identitaire au cours d’un processus de négociation sociale entre trois pôles identitaires : l’identité légitimante du discours interne dominant, l’identité résistante et l’identité projet que construisent les jeunes. Les résultats obtenus démontrent un attachement fort des jeunes à leur religion et une participation active dans la construction de leur identité musulmane. À travers le double fardeau de la culture dominante majoritaire et celle d’appartenance minoritaire, ces jeunes négocient leur identité à partir de trois perceptions religieuses différentes. La première renvoie à un Islam familial hérité, la deuxième, à un Islam reconstruit et la dernière se réfère à un Islam renouvelé. Sur le plan empirique, la thèse entend contribuer à l’avancement des connaissances dans l’étude des minorités religieuses au Canada, notamment les jeunes qui fréquentent une école confessionnelle musulmane.

description: In the automobile industry, ensuring the safety of automated vehicles equipped with the Automated Driving System (ADS) is becoming a significant focus due to the increasing development and deployment of automated driving. Automated driving depends on sensing both the external and internal environments of a vehicle, utilizing perception sensors and algorithms, and Electrical/Electronic (E/E) systems for situational awareness and response. ISO 21448 is the standard for Safety of the Intended Functionality (SOTIF) that aims to ensure that the ADS operate safely within their intended functionality. SOTIF focuses on preventing or mitigating potential hazards that may arise from the limitations or failures of the ADS, including hazards due to insufficiencies of specification, or performance insufficiencies, as well as foreseeable misuse of the intended functionality. However, the challenge lies in ensuring the safety of vehicles despite the limited availability of extensive and systematic literature on SOTIF. To address this challenge, a Systematic Literature Review (SLR) on SOTIF for the ADS is performed following the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) guidelines. The objective is to methodically gather and analyze the existing literature on SOTIF. The major contributions of this paper are: (i) presenting a summary of the literature by synthesizing and organizing the collective findings, methodologies, and insights into distinct thematic groups, and (ii) summarizing and categorizing the acknowledged limitations based on data extracted from an SLR of 51 research papers published between 2018 and 2023. Furthermore, research gaps are determined, and future research directions are proposed.

description: The redox cycling of iron is intimately linked to the cycling of C, S, N, P as well as the speciation, mobility, and bioavailability of various toxic contaminants in soils and sediments. Within these environments, the cycling of iron is catalytically driven by iron-oxidizing (FeOB) and iron reducing bacteria (FeRB) which mediate the formation, transformation, and dissolution of various iron-bearing minerals. Under oxic conditions, FeOB promote the formation of iron oxides on or in close proximity of their cell walls and extracellular polymeric substances, and such composite, termed biogenic iron oxides (BIOS), offers highly reactive heterogenous sites that efficiently immobilize trace metals and contaminants alike. However, under reducing conditions, FeRB mediate the reductive dissolution of BIOS and in turn lead to the remobilization of associated contaminants. Conversely, contaminants may become immobilized by secondary iron minerals that form from the metabolic activity of FeRB. Therefore, determining the factors that influence the reactivity of BIOS, as well as the formation of secondary iron minerals is of critical importance to develop a better understanding of the geochemical cycling of iron and in turn the transport of contaminants in the environment. This thesis investigated (1) the impact of simulated diagenesis (ageing for ~5 years at 4ºC) on the mineral stability and reactivity of BIOS towards reduction by Shewanella putrefaciens CN32, (2) the effects of phosphate at an environmentally relevant (10µM) and excess (3.9mM) concentration on the rates and extent of microbial reduction of synthetic 2-line ferrihydrite and BIOS, as well as the formation of secondary iron minerals, and (3) the impact of sterilization by γ-irradiation on the mineral stability and reactivity of BIOS. It was found that simulated diagenesis did not affect the mineralogical composition of BIOS but significantly lowered the reactivity of BIOS towards microbial reduction. The concentration of phosphate was found to have contrasting effects on the rates of reduction of ferrihydrite and BIOS, but in general, excess concentration of phosphate enhanced the extent of Fe(III) reduction. The formation of a specific secondary iron mineral was also found to depend on the concentration of phosphate, as well as, in the case for BIOS, the presence of intermixed cell derived organic matter. γ-irradiation did not alter the mineralogy and reactivity of BIOS towards microbial reduction, and it was concluded to be a suitable technique to sterilize BIOS.
How to Overcome Barriers to Adequate Pain Management in Ukraine

description: There is a large gap between contemporary evidence-based remedies for pain control and what is offered to Ukrainian patients with pain. Having thousands of people needlessly suffer from avoidable pain forces a consideration of 1) what prevents from their access to pain relief, 2) are their human rights being violated and 3) how can the situation be improved. In order to identify the obstacles to adequate pain management in Ukraine I collected evidence using two methods. First, I designed a questionnaire for the Ukrainian doctors, received approval from the University of Ottawa Ethics Board, distributed the questionnaire among potential responders and then organized the obtained results. Second, I did an extensive literature review to provide evidence from the patients. Then I analysed the provisions of Ukrainian domestic and international legislation as well as the available case law to find out if the human rights of Ukrainian patients and doctors are being violated by denial of adequate pain relief. According to my findings, the barriers to pain control in Ukraine are multidimensional and interdependent. They cause violations of human rights, which are not being effectively defended through the courts of Ukraine. These findings call for a more constructive approach to the development of the Ukrainian health law and policy, which I offer in this thesis.

description: The division of Berlin’s infrastructure systems following the blockade of 1948/49 posed an enormous challenge to the city’s infrastructure planners on both sides of the political divide. This paper is a study of the destabilisation of apparently highly durable technical systems precipitated by the Berlin blockade and the subsequent efforts of those responsible to re-stabilise the systems. It investigates the different experiences of division in the electricity, gas, water and wastewater sectors with a view to raising our understanding of the durability and adaptability of urban technical networks in the face of major upheaval. In the immediate aftermath of the blockade, the paper argues, the prime concern of network managers in both West and East Berlin was to maintain essential services in the face of interventions and reprisals from the other side. As prospects for re-unification diminished, the strategy shifted towards reducing the vulnerability and advancing the territorial cohesion of each side by re-ordering their technical networks physically, spatially and organisationally.

Entrepreneurs as knowledge leaders

description: Knowledge management has become one of the most discussed topics in the business literature during the last decade. It is promoted as an essential corner stone for enterprises to develop competitive advantage in rapidly changing environment. The challenge for many small enterprises is especially demanding because of their limited resources. Thus, almost all the dis - cussions on knowledge management and its related issues have centered on large organizations (Wong and Aspinwall 2004). Additionally, in knowledge management literature it is often admitted that the leader's role as facilitator of learning is crucial in all companies. Nevertheless, only a limited amount of published research has examined the role and tasks of a leader in knowledge management. It is speculated that they should assume roles those of coachers and facilitators but these roles and tasks have not been empirically specified. Research on entrepreneurs as knowledge leaders is so far lacking. In an enterprise, learning takes place interactively between all three levels: individual, team or group and organization (Lippit, 1982, p. 43; Woolner, 1991). Nonaka & Tackeuchi (1998) have described the circulative new knowledge-creation process between tacit and explicit knowledge via four phases: socialization, articulation, integration and internalization. Among others Crossan, Lane and Hildebrandt (1991) deepens our understanding of learning processes on the schematic level of an organization. Organizational learning depends on the interpretative capabilities of individual schemas and their sufficient integration in order to form organizational schemas. Interpretations of competitive surroundings and organizational phenomena should be shared if not in all, at least in those matters crucial for the competitiveness of an enterprise. Collective schemas are associated with common concepts and language. Interpretation and integration proc - esses take place especially in the articulation phase of new knowledge creation (Nonaka & Konno, 1998). An important means of this is dialogue (Argyris 1999, p. 229-238; Nonaka & Tackeuchi, 1995; Senge, 1990). According to Oswick, Anthony, Keenoy, Mangham and Grant (2000) it is just a dialogue that connects individual learning and organizational learning. This study is one of the first steps in conceptualizing and empirically examining knowledge leadership among small business area and entrepreneurs.

description: This dissertation examines the representation of ethnic origins in Antonio Skármeta’s fiction. My hypothesis is that exile in Europe and return to Chile led the author to rethink his Dalmatian-Croatian roots and his sense of self in response to prevailing discourses of national identity. I assess Chile’s immigration history as well as the development of the idea of a homogeneous national identity. Blending concepts of ethnic narrative with theories of memory, identity, and literature, I trace Skármeta’s literary shift towards reclaiming his roots and initiating a critical dialogue with established notions of Chilean identity. I further argue that he grounds himself in literary tradition to inscribe immigrant stories into two major foundational genres, the historical novel and the family romance. I also show that, instead of accepting the truth-telling claims of historical fiction, Skármeta employs historiographic metafiction and intertextuality to emphasize the literary nature of fictional discourse and the role of literary figures in inventing the nation. Finally, I contend that these narratives constitute literary lieux de mémoire (Pierre Nora), which incorporate a subjective memory into the evolving discourses on Chilean identity, thereby recognizing pluralism and fostering mutual understanding.

description: This thesis examines the potential interface that exists between health information, specifically electronic health record (EHR) systems, and notifiable disease surveillance in Canada. It aims to highlight the benefits and barriers experienced by the current national notifiable disease surveillance strategy, as well as to highlight the successes and roadblocks to the successful implementation and adoption of EHR technologies in Canada. Qualitative methodologies, which include the 16 semi-structured interviews conducted with four key stakeholder groups, including public health experts, physicians, health administrators and academics that are concerned with EHR adoption and public health were used to obtain data. Data from interviews was analysed using grounded theory methodology and then verified using member checking and other data validation methods. Emergent themes from obtained data indicated that there is a large potential for the improvement of the current notifiable disease through the use of EHR technologies: however, the barriers currently faced by both the notifiable disease surveillance system and the state of implementation and adoption of EHR technologies prevent this from occurring. These barriers include political, financial, human, security/privacy, and technology barriers. Differences between stakeholder groups were explored, and potential solutions and insights into existing barriers were provided. The information gained from this study provides insight into the efficiency of the current infectious disease surveillance system and the progress of and need for the implementation of EHRs nationwide. In addition, the results of this study provide stakeholders with a deeper understanding of the barriers facing the use of EHR technologies for infectious disease surveillance and provide a starting place to address these issues. The results of this study can help to inform policy regarding public health surveillance and EHR implementation and adoption.

description: Promoting active mobility like cycling relies on the availability of well-connected, high-quality bicycle networks. However, expanding these networks over an extended planning horizon presents one of the most complex challenges in transport science. This complexity arises from the intricate interactions between infrastructure availability and usage, such as network spillover effects and mode choice substitutions. In this paper, we approach the problem from two perspectives: direct optimization methods, which generate near-optimal solutions using operations research techniques, and conceptual heuristics, which offer intuitive and scalable algorithms grounded in network science. Specifically, we compare direct welfare optimization with an inverse network percolation approach to planning cycle superhighway extensions in Copenhagen. Interestingly, while the more complex optimization models yield better overall welfare results, the improvements over simpler methods are small. More importantly, we demonstrate that the increased complexity of planning approaches generally makes them more vulnerable to input uncertainty, reflecting the bias-variance tradeoff. This issue is particularly relevant in the context of long-term planning, where conditions change during the implementation of the planned infrastructure expansions. Therefore, while planning bicycle infrastructure is important and renders exceptionally high benefit-cost ratios, considerations of robustness and ease of implementation may justify the use of more straightforward network-based methods.

description: This thesis focuses on the analysis of the external quantum efficiency of quantum dot-enhanced multi-junction solar cells. Divided in four major parts, it uses the experimental methodology developed in the SUNLAB. At first, a model is introduced to calculate the external quantum efficiency of single and multi-junction solar cells. This model takes into account the semiconductor physics governing the electrical property of the solar cell. It furthermore takes into account the optical transmission and reflection in the semiconductor structure using a transfer matrix method. The calculated curve fits a single junction GaAs solar cell's external quantum efficiency to a high degree of precision. Finally, an InGaP/GaAs/Ge solar cell's external quantum efficiency is calculated and it reproduces accurately the behavior of a measured cell. Second, the reflectivity of a solar cell is studied. An analysis technique involving using the fast Fourier transform of the oscillation in the reflectivity is introduced. This technique extracts the thicknesses of the top and middle subcells. The reflectivity is subsequently calculated using the transfer matrix method and it reproduces the behavior of the measured samples. Third, the effect of the addition of quantum dots in the middle subcell is studied. It is demonstrated that they extend the absorption range of the middle subcell. This is completed by first modeling the quantum mechanical behavior of the electrons and holes in the nanostructure. Their emission and absorption properties are derived. Those derived properties are verified by experimentally measured photoluminescence and electroluminescence of the nanostructures. The resulting model is then compared to experimentally measured external quantum efficiencies of single junction and multi-junction quantum dot-enhanced solar cells. Finally, a study of the bottom subcell artifact is completed. Using the fill-factor bias experiment, each of the contribution of the light coupling and the internal voltage biasing is decoupled. For the measured sample, an optimal voltage of 2.1 V is found to minimize the artifact. At this point, the internal voltage biasing creates an artifact of 1 % and the light coupling artifact is 8 %.
A matter of trust: networks and entrepreneurs

description: This paper discusses elements of inter-entrepreneurial trust in regional networks and clusters in terms of influencing business processes and economic viability in today's economy. The message that can be extracted from the literature is that competitive advantage strongly depends on interfirm collaboration and that networks with a high degree of trust lead to entrepreneurship and innovation. The paper highlights two local Victorian network studies, one in the grains industry and one in the tourism industry, and explores trust based relations in these regional networks. Contrasting sectoral results indicate that social network cohesion and trust were found to be present in the grains community but were absent in the tourism community. Borrowing from the economics and leadership literature, it is proposed that trust fosters certain types of inter-entrepreneurial networks. A description of these networks and related policy implications conclude the paper.

Tale scelta si espone a diverse considerazioni critiche in ragione sia dei molteplici problemi interpretativi lasciati irrisolti dal legislatore, sia della limitata utilizzabilità del procedimento «sommario» per la trattazione delle controversie in esame.

A Collagen Matrix Promotes Anti-Inflammatory Healing Macrophage Function Through a miR-92a Mechanism
Creators: name: Lister, Zachary
Publisher: name: Université d'Ottawa / University of Ottawa
Year: 2016
Subjects: Myocardial Infarction
Biomaterial
MicroRNA
miR-92a

description: MicroRNAs are emerging as key players in the regulation of the post-myocardial infarction (MI) environment. We previously identified that matrix-treated hearts had down-regulated expression of miR-92a, a miRNA with inflammatory and migratory effects that is normally up-regulated after MI. We have shown that type I collagen matrix treatment at 3h post-MI leads to less inflammation and improved cardiac function, but the underlying mechanisms remain to be better characterized. The goal of this study was to elucidate a possible role of miR-92a in the anti-inflammatory/pro-wound healing effect of matrix treatment post-MI. C57BL/6J mice underwent LAD ligation to induce MI. Hearts were removed at 4h, 1d, 3d, and 7d post-MI and RNA was extracted from infarct and peri-infarct tissue. PCR analysis revealed that hearts injected with matrix at 3h post-MI resulted in significantly decreased miR-92a at 4h, 1d, and 3d compared to non-injected animals at each time point (p<0.0001) and PBS injected animals at 4h and 7d (p<0.004). Several targets of miR-92a and regulators of macrophage polarization were found to be up-regulated (p<0.05) early in MI indicating early amelioration of inflammatory processes. In vitro, macrophages cultured on matrix also had decreased expression of miR-92a compared to cultures on tissue culture poly styrene (TCPS) (p<0.001). Integrins α5 (ITGAα5) and αV (ITGAαV), involved in cell-matrix interactions, as well as inflammatory regulators S1PR1 and SIRT1 were identified as putative miR-92a targets. When miR-92a is over-expressed in macrophages, ITGα5 (p=0.0002), ITGαV (p=0.02), and S1Pr1 (p<0.0001), and SIRT1 (p=0.03) all had decreased expression. STAT3 and IL-10 were found to be moderately down-regulated. In evaluating macrophage phenotypes, M2 macrophages had reduced miR-92a expression on matrix compared to M1 macrophages. The migration of M2 macrophages into the matrix is increased compared to M1 macrophages. We report that the beneficial effects of matrix treatment post-MI may be mediated, at least in part, through its ability to regulate miR-92a and pro-wound healing mechanisms in macrophages. These results present the matrix as a novel non-pharmacological approach to locally regulate miRNAs in vivo for reducing inflammation and protecting the myocardium post-MI.

Social Reactions to Acquaintance Sexual Assault: Perceptions of Responsibility and Blame
Creators: name: Tomkins, Christie
Publisher: name: Université d'Ottawa / University of Ottawa
Year: 2017
Subjects: sexual assault
attribution theory
victim blaming

description: Employing a mixed quantitative and qualitative methodology among undergraduate students at the University of Ottawa, this research has explored attributions about sexual assault and the role of perceived intoxication in the context of female and male victims of sexual assault. The use of qualitative methodology and the application of a feminist critique of attribution theory and its contemporary application to rape perception research have contributed to a better understanding of these judgements and the varied ways in which undergraduate students apply the core constructs of responsibility and blame to sexual assault, while simultaneously highlighting the limitations of typically positivistic research in this area. Analyses suggest that the judgements students make about the victims and perpetrators involved in sexual assault are varied and complex, and future research employing a similar methodology and theoretical lens among other populations, both within and outside post-secondary spheres, is warranted.

description: Evidence from current climate science research suggests that anthropogenic activity will cause drastic changes to our environment, including global warming of over 1.5oC in the next 10-30 years, extreme weather patterns, and rising sea levels—some of these changes have already been observed in British Columbia. These environmental impacts have consequences for human health, with natural hazards disproportionately impacting rural populations. The purpose of this paper is to explore current evidence and identify gaps in the current literature around climate change and adaption, as well as identify innovative ways research can contribute to supporting adaptation strategies for rural health services and healthy communities in response to a changing environment.
