Repeated surveys by Statistics Canada has indicated that the income gap -- what Canadian born workers earn compared to the earnings of immigrants -- has widened over the last 20 years and continues to grow. There may be a number of factors to explain this, especially as Canada's "information" economy expands. StatsCan notes in its most recent analysis that there was a decline in the employment in the computer science, information technology and engineering sectors after 2000. The incomes of immigrants in those jobs fell most precipitously. The survey cautions, however, that functionality in English (or French) was not measured, nor was "tenure" which can mean that those hired last in a company may be the first laid off. Further, the survey did not control for work experience.

After his graduation from New Hampshire, [Ken Dion] spent a year at SUNY Buffalo before transferring to the graduate program in social psychology at the University oi Minnesota. This transfer had a significant effect on Ken's career but had an even more important impact on other aspects of his life. It was there that he met and married his wife, Karen, then a fellow graduate student. Karen and Ken would be life partners in both their personal and professional lives. In 1970, Ken and Karen each received their PhD in psychology and took up jobs at the University of Toronto. There in the Department of Psychology, Ken began a research and teaching career that would span across numerous subareas of social psychology. In the early 1970s, Ken and his students began to study prejudice from the ...

This paper examines the relationship between board independence degree and managerial short-term incentives in investment decisions using a game-theoretical framework which is based on the model of Narayanan (1985). Because the model here connects corporate governance by a board and investment decisions by a manager, we can see clearly how the board affects the manager's investment decisions using its wage policy for the manager. According to the results here, although corporate governance by the board can alleviate managerial short-term incentives in investment decisions, it can not solve these kinds of biases completely. Therefore, to accomplish our final target of eliminating managerial short-term incentives in investment decisions, the only way we can do is to make the information b...

Rapid changes in the information and technology landscape provide challenges that at times conflict with traditional notions of school libraries and their role in learning, literacy and living. They herald important opportunities for school librarians to rethink, re-imagine and recreate a dynamic learning environment for school libraries. This shifting information environment includes the publishing arena increasingly characterized by a movement away from a "hard copy paradigm" (Rowlands & Nicholas, 2008, p. 8), the growth of a pervasive, integrated information environment characterized by vast quantities of digital content, open choice, collaborative and participatory digital spaces, and the transition of the Web environments from consumption of information to creation of informati...
