Book excerpt: The review was launched as an outcome of the First Ministers' Meeting on Equalization and Territorial Formula Financing in October 2004.5 In relation to TFF, the Panel was specifically asked to provide advice to the Government of Canada on: • The allocation of TFF among the three territories • Ways of making the payments to the territories more stable and predictable • Ways of measuring the costs [...] Those factors also highlight the need to address the unique and very different perspectives of each of the territories and the purpose of TFF in helping the territories achieve their aspirations for the future. [...] But perhaps just as important, the Panel gained a deeper understanding of the unique challenges of the North, the territories' aspirations to achieve self-reliance and financial self-sufficiency, the com- plexity of the issues involved, and their strong desire to create a better future for all people in the territories. [...] One of the most promising opportunities for the territories is the potential One of the most promising opportuni- for and continued development of their rich natural resources, particularly ties for the territories is the potential oil, gas and diamonds. [...] At the same time, given the importance of the program to the territories and the amount of money involved, it's important to understand the basic ele- ments of the program and how it works.
Download or read book Health in Rural Canada written by Judith C. Kulig and published by UBC Press. This book was released on 2011-12-06 with total page 570 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Health research in Canada has mostly focused on urban areas, often overlooking the unique issues faced by Canadians living in rural and remote areas. This volume provides the first comprehensive overview of the state of rural health and health care in Canada, from coast to coast and in northern communities. Three themes are highlighted: rural places matter to health, rural places are unique, and rural places are dynamic. The contributors bring insights and methodologies from nursing, social work, geography, epidemiology, and sociology and from community-based research to a full spectrum of topics: health literacy, rural health care delivery and training, Aboriginal health, web-based services and their application, rural palliative care, and rural health research and policy. Taken together, these wide-ranging and multifaceted explorations of the dynamic relationship between health and place offer researchers and policy-makers, students and practitioners a valuable resource for understanding the special, ever-changing needs of rural communities.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For readers who intend to read this volume without reading the ftrst, some introductory remarks are in order about the scope of the work and the strategy used in all ftve volumes to measure the quality of life. In the ftrst chapter of Volume I, I reviewed the relevant recent literature on social indicators and social reporting, and explained all the general difficulties involved in such work. It would be redundant to repeat that discussion here, but there are some fundamental points that are worth mentioning. Readers who fmd this account too brief should consult the longer discussion. The basic question that will be answered in this work in this: Is there a difference in the quality of life in Canada and the United States of America, and if so, in which country is it better? Alternatively, one could put the question thus: If one individual were randomly selected out of Canada and another out of the United States, would there be important qualitative differences, and if so, which one would probably be better off? To simplify matters, I often use the terms 'Canadian' and 'American' as abbreviations for 'a randomly selected resident' of Canada or the United States, respectively.
