Kudos to our snow-clearing crews. The lead article in the Thursday, Jan. 28 Saskatoon StarPhoenix compares snow-clearing in Winnipeg and Saskatoon. Both cities were hit by the same snowfall the previous weekend. I was in Saskatoon and their side streets were little more than two parallel ruts in a blanket of snow, while the side streets in Winnipeg were clear from curb to curb and the sidewalks bare. The Saskatoon roads were so bad, my car bottomed out driving across an intersection. School buses remained parked, residential streets rutted and snow-filled, and some suburban areas were impassable. According to the article, it cost Winnipeg taxpayers $21 more per person annually than the Saskatoon snow-clearing budget. That is the best $21 I've spent this year and I want to congratulate t...

Le travail effectué dans le domaine de la santé des femmes autochtones continue à abonder, y compris les études comparatives sur les femmes autochtones et non autochtones relatives au tabagisme et à la grossesse ([Heaman] et Chalmers, 2005), aux syndromes métaboliques ([Liu, Juan] et autres, 2006) et à la mortalité infantile ([Zhong-Cheng, Luo] et autres, 2004). Un nouvel intérêt dans le domaine de la santé génésique s'est révélé qui n'était pas un sujet forcément touché par la dernière étude. Les femmes autochtones et l'état de santé ont aussi été étudiés davantage au cours de cette étude de 2006. La bibliographie commentée de Bennett (2005), qui se veut une revue comprehensive de la littérature portant sur la santé des femmes autochtones, a fait preuve d'un intérêt particulier. Une as...

Court-ordered assessments by independent mental health professionals play an important role in the resolution of child welfare cases. There are, however, significant concerns about their use, including: the delay that may result from an assessment; a shortage of qualified assessors; and lack of supervision and standards in the assessment field. This paper is based on an unpublished Report prepared with government support that reviewed literature and jurisprudence on forensic child welfare assessments, and surveyed Ontario judges, lawyers, social workers and assessors on their experiences and concerns with these assessments. The Report made recommendations for short-term changes in regulations and practice in Ontario, and the paper discusses the government response to these recommendatio...
