Diseases like rabies and distemper were also epidemic in the dogs, so they "became a threat to every other dog," she said. "This is why the RCMP shot them.
"I believe the lawyers started (the controversy)," [Montcombroux] said. "The lawyers said, 'Well, they shot your dogs. Therefore, you are entitled to compensation.' "
"In villages of northwest Greenland, there are 2,000 people and 10,000 dogs," he said. "Their entire means of land transport is the dogs -- no snow machines, no four-wheelers.

Even the ship's tenders are equipped for wheelchairs. Tenders are small boats used to transport passengers to land in the event the ship is unable to dock at a pier.

Happiness is defined by Veenhoven (2008) as "the overall appreciation of one 's life-as-a-whole, in short, how much one likes the life one lives" (p. 2, itaUcs in original). Seligman's (2002) work on authentic happiness focuses on an enduring experience of happiness. Sustainable happiness is relevant to essentially every definition of happiness. As a demonstration, consider the momentary pleasure of drinking a cup of coffee. Benefits of attending to and being mindful of the experience have been discussed by Brown and Kasser (2005) and Kabat-Zinn (2005). Viewed through the lens of sustainable happiness, this momentary pleasure can be placed in a wider context. Individuals can attend to whether that cup of coffee is fair trade coffee, which means that workers in the coffee plantation have...

Before it collapsed, Zoom Airlines flew passengers directly from Winnipeg to London, but was only allowed to land in that city's smaller Gatwick airport. EU Transport Commissioner Antonio Tajani said the new deal removes restrictions on ownership and direct flights. That makes "the EU-Canada market one of the most open in the world," he said.
