Ryan, Michael J., and Philip J. Currie. "First report of protoceratopsians (Neoceratopsia) from the Late Cretaceous Judith River Group, Alberta, Canada." Canadian Journal of Earth Sciences 35, no. 7 (July 1, 1998): 820–26. http://dx.doi.org/10.1139/e98-033.

Abstract:

Protoceratopsians are best known in North America from associated skeletal material of Montanoceratops from the early Maastrichtian of Montana and Campanian of Alberta and Leptoceratops from the late Maastrichtian of Alberta and Wyoming. We report here the first occurrence of protoceratopsian elements from the middle Campanian (Dinosaur Park Formation) of Alberta. The specimens consist of a fragmentary right dentary and an almost complete left dentary which can be referred to Leptoceratops sp. Recent examination of Albertan microvertebrate material has identified cf. protoceratopsians teeth from the latest Santonian (Milk River Formation), extending the record of Albertan protoceratopsians back almost 20 million years. The rarity of these small ornithischians in the fossil record of Alberta may have been due to ecological exclusion from the wet, coastal environments that were preferred by the larger, more abundant ceratopsids.

Abstract:

Maria Winowska (1904-1993), pisarka emigracyjna, jest autorką eseistycznej biografii Adama Chmielowskiego – brata Alberta, zatytułowanej Frère Albert ou la Face auxoutrages opublikowanej w 1953 roku w Paryżu i dwukrotnie przetłumaczonej na język polski. Jest to jak do tej pory najobszerniejsza biografia, a jednocześnie studium duchowości św. brata Alberta, kanonizowanego w roku 1989. W niniejszej pracy obserwowane są pewne podobieństwa tegoż eseju i utworów niektórych innych pisarzy, także kreślących wizerunek brata Alberta. Przede wszystkim jednak wydobyte zostały swoiste cechy duchowej biografii autorstwa Winowskiej, przybliżającej czytelnikom niezwykłą postać człowieka zasłużonego dla Kościoła i społeczeństwa, zwłaszcza w aspekcie zwalczania społecznej nędzy.

Abstract:

Hard to believe that this month marks the fifteenth anniversary of my move to Alberta to work for Catalyst Theatre – I suppose that soon I’ll have to start calling myself an Albertan! Some of the defiant and proud Western attitude has certainly rubbed off on me by now. I know this is true because I am no longer upset by the looks of disbelief and/or pity from my fellow Canadians when I admit that, yes – I choose to pursue a career in the arts in Alberta.

Abstract:

Although mesothelioma rates have been rising worldwide, little is known about mesothelioma trends in Alberta. This population-based descriptive study used Alberta Cancer Board Registry data from 1980 to 2004 to develop an age-period–cohort model of male pleural mesothelioma incidence rates over time. Both age and cohort effects are associated with incidence rates. The highest-risk cohort comprised men born between 1930 and 1939, reflecting widespread asbestos use and exposure beginning in the 1940s in Canada. We predict that 1393 Albertan men 40 years and older will die of pleural mesothelioma between 1980 and 2024; 783 (56.2%) of these deaths will occur between 2010 and 2024. The total number of mesothelioma deaths in Alberta will be higher when all age groups, both sexes, and all disease sites are included, with numbers likely peaking sometime between 2015 and 2019. In addition to the ongoing efforts that focus on eliminating asbestos-related disease in Alberta, the challenge is to implement surveillance systems to prevent future epidemics of preventable occupational cancers in Alberta.

Abstract:

I first met the remarkable Toyoshi (Yoshi) Yoshihara in Calgary in 2003, as my first play The Red Priest (Eight Ways to Say Goodbye) was debuting at Alberta Theatre Project's playRites Festival. Born and raised in Tokyo, Yoshihara formally studied Russian language and literature at Waseda University while informally getting involved in theatre after hours in a student club. After a successful career in business, Yoshihara returned to his first love, theatre, and has become Japan's foremost translator of Canadian work. He has translated an astonishing list of Canuck playwrights, from Anne Chislett to Daniel McIvor. Even more interestingly, he has translated the plays of many Albertan playwrights, including John Murrell, Sharon Pollock, Frank Moher and, in recent years, myself. Yoshihara received an honorary doctorate (D. Litt.) from McMaster University in recognition of his introducing Canadian theatre to Japan, and last year, the Playwrights Guild of Canada honoured him with a lifetime membership to recognize his contribution to Canadian playwriting. I spoke with Yoshi from the Banff playRites Colony about his work as a translator and his long-standing connections with Alberta.

Abstract:

Brat Albert Chmielowski stał się bohaterem kilku ważnych tekstów literackich, w tym jest bohaterem dwóch dramatów powstałych prawie w tym samym czasie – podczas II wojny światowej. Są to Adama Bunscha Gołębie Brata Alberta (1943), (wydanie polskie z roku 1947 Przyszedł na ziemię święty) oraz Karola Wojtyły pt. Brat naszego Boga (1944-1950). Zarówno Bunsch, jak i Wojtyła są zafascynowani postacią Brata Alberta i jego życiem. Bunsch pisze swój dramat jako żołnierz, artysta-malarz, literat, a Wojtyła, przyszły papież, jako ksiądz. W dramacie Bunscha mamy pokazaną drogę wyborów życiowych Adama Chmielowskiego, który szuka swego miejsca w życiu. Widzimy go najpierw jako żołnierza-powstańca z roku 1863, potem jako malarza, a w końcu jako zakonnika posługującego ubogim. Dramat Bunscha zbliżony jest do dramatów realistycznych, obyczajowych czy biograficznych. Autor nie wprowadził do niego treści teologicznych, tylko położył nacisk na kwestie etyczne. Natomiast w dramacie Karola Wojtyły mamy inne podejście do postaci Brata Alberta. Sztuka ta oparta jest na fundamencie personalizmu. Stawia on w centrum człowieka z jego tajemnicą istnienia w relacji do Boga opartej na miłości. Fabuła staje się pretekstem dla rozważań na temat Miłosierdzia, będącego czystym Pięknem. Wizualizacją Miłosierdzia w omawianej sztuce jest obraz Chmielowskiego Ecce homo. Dramat Wojtyły ma wymowę teologiczną. Jego teatr jest teatrem słowa, myśli, filozoficzno-wizyjnym. Tak więc pomimo znaczących różnic w koncepcji teatru i dramatu oba dramaty są świadectwem roli, jaką brat Albert odegrał we współczesnym świecie.

Kerrigan, Richard W., Daisy B. Carvalho, Paul A. Horgen, and James B. Anderson. "Indigenous and introduced populations of Agaricus bisporus, the cultivated button mushroom, in eastern and western Canada: implications for population biology, resource management, and conservation of genetic diversity." Canadian Journal of Botany 73, no. 12 (December 1, 1995): 1925–38. http://dx.doi.org/10.1139/b95-205.

Full text

Abstract:

Agaricus bisporus is known from field collections in several parts of southern Canada and the border states of Washington and Idaho. In Ontario, the species is associated with urban horticultural sites, agricultural areas, and thoroughfares. In British Columbia, Washington, and Idaho, the species is less well documented but occurs in habitats similar to those in Ontario. All studied isolates from these two regions were genotypically similar to those collected in Europe and also to a representative sample of cultivar isolates believed to be of European origin. In contrast, a population from forests of Picea in the Rocky Mountains of Alberta had genotypes that are very different from European and cultivar groups, including the putatively introduced populations in other parts of Canada. To a lesser extent, the Albertan individuals also differed from three other isolated natural populations, two in California and one in Israel. Two of 35 isolates from Alberta had nuclear genotypes that were partially or entirely consistent with European ancestry, indicating that foreign (probably cultivar) germ plasm has become established in the native habitat. Thirty of 35 isolates from the Alberta field sample had one of six mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) haplotypes known only from Alberta; the remaining five had an mtDNA type known from cultivar strains. However, nuclear genotypic similarity to other Albertan or European-cultivar isolates was not significantly correlated with presence or absence of this latter mtDNA type. The genetic diversity represented by the previously unknown Albertan population, and to a lesser extent by the heirloom varietal lineages and their derivatives that have become established in Ontario, British Columbia, Washington, and Idaho, is an important resource for breeders of this valuable fungal crop species. Threats to resource populations of this species, and possible responses, are discussed. Key words: Agaricus bisporus, mushroom population biology, resource management, germ plasm conservation, genetic diversity, microphylogeny.

Montford, Kelly Struthers. "The "Present Referent": Nonhuman Animal Sacrifice and the Constitution of Dominant Albertan Identity." PhaenEx 8, no. 2 (December 26, 2013): 105. http://dx.doi.org/10.22329/p.v8i2.4089.

Full text

Abstract:

In the summer of 2012, “meat” themed posters were hung throughout the city of Edmonton, Alberta. A textual analysis of three of the posters from this collection revels that the concept of sacrifice (Derrida, The Animal) is more appropriate to describe “meat”-eating in Alberta than the concept of the absent referent (Adams, Sexual Politics of Meat). These posters celebrate the consumption of “meat” and unabashedly make evident the living animal origins of “meat.” I argue that that the prominence of the cattle industry relative to Alberta’s economy, and its ties to the production and reproduction of dominant Albertan identity negate the requirement of the absent referent. The consumption of “beef” is largely considered an expression of loyalty to the region, and as a means to preserve Alberta’s (imagined) heritage (Blue, “If it ain’t Alberta”; Korniek). The noncriminal putting to death of nonhuman animals can instead be understood as symbolic and literal sacrifices in the constitution of dominant Albertan identity and economy (Derrida, The Animal). As such, this paper makes an intervention into ecofeminist literature as well as vegan literature written for mainstream populations that employ the absent referent in the aim of countering “meat”-eating practices (Adams, Sexual Politics of Meat, Pornography of Meat; Foer; Freedman and Barnounin; Joy; Robbins; Singer).

Abstract:

Drawing connections between an extractivist economy, the forms of cowboy culture (and rugged, white, working-class masculinity) that have a long history of entanglement with extractivism on the territory now defined as the province of Alberta (in western Canada) and the high rates of sexualized colonial violence against Indigenous women in the province, the authors argue that Alberta has a transient white guy problem. By analyzing the Calgary Stampede as a case study of forms of white masculinity that are supported, encouraged, prioritized and, at times, glorified in Alberta, the authors demonstrate how this transient white guy problem is proving exceedingly dangerous to many Indigenous women in particular (as well as to women, girls and 2SLGBTQQIA people more broadly) and diverse local communities, the land and the environment. Their analysis aims to unpack how settler-colonial logics of extractivism and cultural practices of placemaking, too often viewed as innocuous and as central to an Albertan identity, come to be deeply implicated in ongoing violence against Indigenous women.

Abstract:

Postać Brata Alberta wpisała się w pejzaż intelektualny pierwszych dekad XX w., inspirując modernistycznych pisarzy do kreowania bohaterów na wzór tego Wielkiego Jałmużnika. Młodopolscy pisarze widzieli w nim wzorzec etyczny swojej epoki, w perspektywie jego duchowości rozważali jej dylematy światopoglądowe. Osoba Brata Alberta nabrała też szczególnego znaczenia po odzyskaniu przez Polskę niepodległości. Od drugiej dekady XX w. znacznie zintensyfikowana została publicystyczna aktywność mająca na celu upowszechnienie postawy i znaczenia Brata Alberta w polskim życiu społecznym czasu zaborów. W artykule prześledzony został właśnie sposób jego postrzegania oraz kategorie interpretacji życia i przemiany tego artysty w jałmużnika, które ukierunkowane zostały na ukazanie jego postaci jako integralnie związanej z przemianami polskiej świadomości po klęsce powstania styczniowego. Z analizy dość obszernego materiału źródłowego wynika, że Brat Albert – powstaniec przechodzący głęboką wewnętrzną przemianę – postrzegany był nie tylko jako dwudziestowieczne wcielenie św. Franciszka z Asyżu, jako wielki człowiek Kościoła, tworzący kanony etyczne dla swojej epoki, ale przede wszystkim jako unaoczniający w swojej postawie ewolucję polskiej świadomości kulturowej drugiej połowy XIX oraz początków XX w. W perspektywie rozważań o jego życiu scalała się polska biografia kulturowa tego czasu, odsłaniała się konstytuująca ją logika przenoszenia romantycznej „egzaltacji patriotycznej” na płaszczyznę marzeń o chrześcijańskiej doskonałości. Sylwetka Brata Alberta stała się w początkach XX w. istotnym elementem w polskim dyskursie tożsamościowym.

Abstract:

„In principio”: metafizyczna egzegeza J 1,1 Alberta Wielkiego, Bonawentury i Tomasza z Akwinu Artykuł przedstawia interpretacje słów „in principio” (Jan 1,1) zaproponowane przez Alberta Wielkiego, Bonawenturę i Tomasza z Akwinu w ich komentarzach do Ewangelii wg św. Jana. Ujęcia tych autorów różnią się. Albert używa pojęć pierwszej zasady oraz intelektu, który działa powszechnie i wytwarza swoje światło. Bonawentura buduje swoją interpretację na Augustyńskim rozróżnieniu między początkiem bez początku i początkiem z początku. Akwinata tworzy zaś ramę pojęciową opartą na teoriach metafizycznych. Wszystkie te ujęcia ujawniają metafizyczny charakter dokonanej przez tych autorów egzegezy pierwszego zdania Janowej Ewangelii. Owo metafizyczne nastawienie umożliwiło im zastosowanie zaawansowanych pojęć i stanowi jeden z powodów, by ich egzegezę określić jako “analityczną”.

Abstract:

Introduction: Non-medical cannabis recently became legal on October 18th, 2018 to Canadian adults. The impact of legalization on Emergency Departments (EDs) has been identified as a major concern. The study objective was to identify changes in cannabis-related ED visits and changes in co-existing diagnoses associated with cannabis-related ED visits pre- and post-legalization for the entire urban population of Alberta. Urban Alberta was defined as Calgary and Edmonton, inclusive of Sherwood Park and St. Albert given the proximity of some Edmontonians to their EDs) encompassing 12 adult EDs and 2 pediatric EDs. Methods: Retrospective data was collected from the National Ambulatory Care Reporting System, and from the HealthLink and the Alberta Poison and Drug Information Service (PADIS) public telehealth call databases. An interrupted time-series analysis was completed via segmented regression calculation in addition to incident rate and relative risk ratio calculation for the pre- and post-legalization periods to identify both differences among the entire urban Alberta population and differences among individuals presenting to the ED. Data was collected from October 1st, 2013 up to July 31st, 2019 for ED visits and was adjusted for natural population increase using quarterly reports from the Government of Alberta. Results: The sample included 11 770 pre-legalization cannabis-related visits, and 2962 post-legalization visits. Volumes of ED visits for cannabis-related harms were found to increase post-legalization within urban EDs (IRR 1.45, 95% CI 1.39, 1.51; absolute level change: 43.48 visits per month in urban Alberta, 95% CI 26.52, 60.43), and for PADIS calls (IRR 1.87, 95% CI 1.55, 2.37; absolute level change: 4.02 calls per month in Alberta, 95% CI 0.11, 7.94). The increase in visits to EDs equates to an increase of 2.72 visits per month, per ED. Lastly, increases were observed for cannabinoid hyperemesis (RR 1.23, 95% CI 1.10, 1.36), unintentional ingestion (RR 1.48, 95% CI 1.34, 1.62), and in individuals leaving the ED pre-treatment (RR 1.28, 95% CI 1.08, 1.49). Decreases were observed for coingestant use (RR 0.77, 95% CI 0.73, 0.81) and hospital admissions (RR 0.88, 95% CI 0.80, 0.96). Conclusion: Overall, national legalization of cannabis appears to be correlated with a small increase in cannabis-related ED visits and poison control calls. Post-legalization, fewer patients are being admitted, though cannabinoid hyperemesis appears to be on the rise.

Abstract:

Integrative medicine is commonplace across the world, but in North America, it is considered a complement, rather than a mainstay of health care delivery. In Canada, where conventional Western medicine dominates modern health practices, we explore the progress, challenges, and opportunities of complementary medical practices, in particular Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) in the province of Alberta. We provide a TCM policy framework and maturity model as tools to assess the overall state of TCM practices and apply them in an Albertan context. While Alberta has made significant progress in developing capacity, competence, and accountability within TCM practices, the maturity of its practices may be considered to be in their infancy compared to more developed Chinese jurisdictions and some other Canadian provinces. We highlight significant gaps and barriers that limit the potential for complementary medicine to become part of mainstream health care as safe, effective, and quality health care choices, and discuss possible next steps.

Abstract:

Apart from numerous survey courses such as the Histories of Medicine, of Technology, of Art, and the Literature of the European Tradition—all of which span several centuries including the Middle Ages, and are offered by various departments of the Faculty of Arts, there is a fairly strong contingent of special topics courses in medieval studies at the University of Alberta. For example, Martin Tweedale of the Department of Philosophy offers an undergraduate course on early medieval philosophy. There are currently three medievalists in the Department of History and Classics. Andrew Gow regularly teaches courses on late medieval and early modern Europe. John Kitchen is a specialist in medieval religion, medieval intellectual history, the history of Christian holy women and medieval Latin literature. Kitchen currently teaches an undergraduate course on early medieval Europe. Thirdly, J.L. Langdon, a specialist in British Medieval history, teaches a course on the formation of England in which he covers the political, social, economic and religious developments of England from the fifth to the twelfth century.

Abstract:

“In the theatre, we do not compete,” wrote director Doug Riske in an angry letter to the editor of the Calgary Herald, June 1982, when the newspaper asked readers to select the best and worst plays and acting performances of the 1981/82 season. The Herald ignored Riske’s plea to abandon the poll, which he opposed on the grounds it encouraged anonymous sniping, but it did drop the “worst” category for acting when readers expressed reluctance to condemn performers who might do better in other shows.

Abstract:

A persistent yet understudied aspect of Alberta’s “quasi-party system” is the role of the electoral system. While many authors have rightly pointed out that a majoritarian single-member plurality system has helped Alberta’s ruling parties produce disproportionate majorities, the province has not always operated under this electoral arrangement. From 1926 until 1955, Alberta had a “hybrid” system, consisting of the Single Transferable Vote in multi-member constituencies in Edmonton and Calgary and the Alternative Vote in single-member constituencies in the rest of Alberta. This unusual attempt at electoral reform played an important role in the dominance of the United Farmers of Alberta and the early Social Credit Party (until 1955). AV acted as an essentially majoritarian system in rural Alberta, producing statistically indistinguishable results from FPTP. This contrasts the Albertan case with other attempts at implementing the Alternative Vote. On the other hand, STV benefited the UFA and Social Credit in two distinct ways. STV increasing proportionality in Edmonton and Calgary, as it has in many other jurisdictions. However, due the hybrid system, the urban opposition in Edmonton and Calgary to the UFA was fragmented by a proportional system like STV. Social Credit, with its larger urban base, used STV to maximize its urban vote through a process of voter transfers. Finally, rural malapportionment is a key feature in both the hybrid system and the subsequent return to single-member plurality. Rural seats, operating under both AV and FPTP, have been the electoral bedrock for Alberta’s long lived political dynasties. The unique case of Alberta’s hybrid electoral system serves as an important potential case study in debates surrounding electoral reform in Canada and around the world.

Abstract:

In January 2013, SSEC Canada Ltd. pled guilty to three charges under Alberta’s Occupational Health and Safety Act after two of its temporary foreign workers died and two more were seriously injured on the worksite. A fine of $1,225,000—the largest ever ordered in Alberta—was paid to the Alberta Law Foundation, which administered the funds to the Alberta Workers’ Health Centre to develop and provide the “New Alberta Workers program.” In this interview, Jared Matsunaga-Turnbull reflects on the program’s peer-to-peer Occupational Health and Safety workshops for new-to-Alberta workers to illustrate how “creative sentencing” related to serious Occupational Health and Safety violation convictions can play out. He discusses what the team learned about the particular work and life context and related needs of new-to-Alberta workers that created challenges and prompted program changes throughout the three-year workshop period. Finally, Jared considers what is needed to meaningfully support new-to-Alberta workers going forward.

Abstract:

Adverse outcomes after childhood cancer have been assessed in a range of settings, but most existing studies are historical and ascertain outcomes only after 5-year survival. Here, we describe the Alberta Childhood Cancer Survivorship Research Program and its foundational retrospective, population-based cohort of Albertan residents diagnosed with a first primary neoplasm between the ages of 0 and 17 years from 1 January 2001 to 31 December 2018. The cohort was established in collaboration with the Alberta Cancer Registry and Cancer in Young People in Canada program and has been linked to existing administrative health databases and patient-reported outcome questionnaires. The cohort comprised 2580 survivors of childhood cancer, 1379 (53.4%) of whom were 5-year survivors. Approximately 48% of the cohort was female, 47% of the cohort was diagnosed between 0 and 4 years of age, and the most frequent diagnoses were leukemias (25.4%), central nervous system tumors (24.0%), and lymphomas (14.9%). Detailed treatment information was available for 1741 survivors (67.5%), with manual abstraction ongoing for those with missing data. By the study exit date, the median time since diagnosis was 5.5 years overall and 10.4 years for 5-year survivors. During the follow-up time, 82 subsequent primary cancers were diagnosed, 20,355 inpatient and 555,425 ambulatory/outpatient events occurred, 606,773 claims were reported, and 437 survivors died. The results from this research program seek to inform and improve clinical care and reduce cancer-related sequelae via tertiary prevention strategies.

Abstract:

Alberta Plays and Playwrights is a scrupulously democratic catalogue of 350 plays by 100 Alberta playwrights, compiled by Alberta Playwrights’ Network to acquaint theatre directors, playwrights, educators, students, and audiences across Canada with the rich resources of Alberta theatre. As Brian Paisley, founder of the Edmonton Fringe Festival, has commented, it seems that in Alberta there is a manuscript stuffed under every mattress. The catalogue is clearly designed and accessible: playwrights are listed alphabetically with a brief biography, address and phone number, followed by succinct synopses of their plays, including genre, length, cast requirements, production dates, awards and publishing information, and most important, information on accessing a script, whether published or unpublished.

Abstract:

Objective: To measure the provincial government cost of mental health–related activities for youth ages 12 to 17 in Alberta in 2014 to 2015. Methods: The target population was Alberta youth ages 12 to 17 (the federal justice definition) who received or were funded for mental health–related or complementary services from Alberta Health Services, Alberta Health, Alberta Human Services, Alberta Justice and Solicitor General, and Alberta Education (public schools). Data on services and expenditures were obtained from each source for the target youth population. Results: Costs for mental health–related services for all ministries were $175 million for 27,169 youth who used mental health services as defined by Policy Wise, $6460 per youth. Public school special education supplements for youth with emotional problems was the largest group, amounting to 30% of all costs. Other prominent sources of expenditures were hospital inpatient mental health services (18%), community mental health services (11%), physician mental health services (10%), and secure services with treatment requiring judicial approval (9%). Conclusion: Economists in several countries have developed countrywide measures of mental health expenditures and have used these to generate national benchmarks for mental health spending. We have estimated spending for Alberta provincial mental health and addiction services for a distinct and highly vulnerable group. This measure can be used to develop measures and benchmarks for other provinces, which will be valuable policy indicators.

Abstract:

OBJECTIVE: To measure the outcome of tuberculosis treatment in a low incidence, high income region, Alberta, and compare with an intermediate incidence, low income country with a model national tuberculosis program, Nicaragua.DESIGN: All 1992 sputum smear-positive pulmonary cases from both regions were included. Treatment outcome was assigned retrospectively to Alberta cases according to the International Union Against Tuberculosis and Lung Diseases' (IUATLD) criteria of cure, failure, transfer, absconder and death.SETTING: Alberta laboratories are required to report allMycobacterium tuberculosiscultures to Alberta provincial tuberculosis services. Nicaragua cases are reported centrally to the Programa de control de tuberculosis in Managua using the IUATLD criteria.MAIN RESULTS: In Alberta, 222 tuberculosis cases were identified, of which 61 were smear positive. Nicaragua had 1552 smear positive cases of 2885 tuberculosis cases. Alberta's outcomes were 82% cured, no failed treatment, 5% absconded, 2% transferred and 11% died; Nicaragua's outcomes were 77% cured, 2% failed, 13% absconded, 5% transferred and 4% died. There was no significant difference in cure rates between Alberta and Nicaragua, P=0.33.CONCLUSIONS: Treatment outcomes can be measured effectively and reported in high income, low incidence settings. Alberta is achieving comparable cure rates with the Nicaraguan national tuberculosis program.

Abstract:

This is the first paper to look at the entire population of those found Not Criminally Responsible on Account of Mental Disorder (NCR) in Alberta, Canada. The Alberta NCR Project examined longitudinal data from the NCR population to describe sociodemographic, mental health, and criminological profiles. Data were collected for the period of 1941 (i.e., the first known case in Alberta) to October 15, 2015, using archived patient chart information. The majority of Alberta NCRs have not completed high school, are diagnosed with some form of psychosis, and were found by the court to be NCR due to a violent crime. The Alberta NCR population has grown by an average of seven NCR accused per year and, of those who have reached absolute discharge, each person spent an average of 5.7 years under the Alberta Review Board (the provincial body that oversees those found NCR). Those who committed a homicide had significantly longer hospitalizations than those under every other crime category, except attempted homicide.

Abstract:

Newborn screening (NBS) in Alberta is delivered by a number of government and health service entities who work together to provide newborn screening to infants born in Alberta, the Northwest Territories, and the Kitikmeot region of the Nunavut territory. The Alberta panel screens for 21 disorders (16 metabolic, two endocrine, cystic fibrosis, severe combined immunodeficiency, and sickle cell disease). NBS is a standard of care, but is not mandatory. NBS performance is monitored by the Alberta Newborn Metabolic Screening (NMS) Program and NMS Laboratory, who strive for continuous quality improvement. Performance analysis found that over 99% of registered infants in Alberta received a newborn screen and over 98% of these infants received a screen result within 10 days of age.

Abstract:

The objective of this study was to determine the concentrations of 20 minerals in the whole raw milk from Holstein dairy cows in the province of Alberta, Canada. A total of 156 milk samples were collected from 26 dairy farms (n = 6 per farm) and analyzed with inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (ICP-MS) for five macrominerals (Ca, Mg, P, K, and Na), ten microminerals (Bo, Co, Cu, Fe, Mn, Mo, Ru, Se, St, and Zn), and five heavy metals (Al, As, Cd, Cr, and Pb). Calculated means were compared with their recommended daily intakes (RDIs) or minimal risk levels (MRLs) obtained from several food safety agencies and with data obtained from a world meta-analytical study we conducted previously. Results of the present study showed differences in the concentrations of multiple minerals between the Alberta farms involved and world averages (WA) and within Alberta farms. Concentrations of macrominerals, including Ca, Mg, P, K, and Na, in the raw milk were greater in Alberta dairy farms than the WA (p < 00.5; except Ca). Of note, concentrations of Ca showed the highest variability among Alberta farms, with 11 farms having lower milk Ca than WA. The other macrominerals were higher than WA in more than 88% of Alberta farms. Data demonstrated that concentrations of microminerals, including Co, Cu, Fe, Mn, and Mo, in Alberta raw milk were lower compared with WA (p < 0.05). Selenium was the only element in raw milk that was found to have higher concentrations in all farms in Alberta vs. WA. High variability was observed for B, Sr, and Zn, which were lower in multiple locations around the province. Concentrations of heavy metals in the Alberta raw milk, including Al, As, Cd, and Pb, were lower than WA, whereas concentrations of Cr were higher. Most importantly, all heavy metals were below their respective MRLs in all analyzed samples. Overall, data from this study showed that raw milk from Holstein dairy cows in Alberta has concentrations of most mineral elements below their MRLs and some of them different from WA. Of note, although concentrations of Se and Zn in the raw milk were higher in Alberta compared with WA, their concentrations were still below their respective MRLs.

Abstract:

AbstractMayflies of the genus Ameletus (Ephemeroptera: Ameletidae) occur in practically every drainage of western Alberta and in the Cypress Hills, from headwater spring brooks to larger rivers. The genus is speciose and reaches its greatest diversity in the southwestern part of the province where as many as 12 species can occur at a single site. Of the 30 bisexual species currently recognized from North America, 13 have been collected from Alberta (A. bellulus, A. celer, A. cooki, A. majusculus, A. oregonensis, A. pritchardi, A. similior, A. sparsatus, A. subnotatus, A. suffusus, A. validus, A. velox, and A. vernalis), and another, A. inopinatus, is assumed to occur in the northern part of the province. Male adults of all North American species were described previously by Zloty (1996, The Canadian Entomologist128: 293–346). In the current paper, we describe late-instar larvae and adult females of all 14 Albertan species, and provide species distributions and keys for identification of male and female adults and larvae. All diagnostic taxonomic characters are described and illustrated. The identification keys can also be used in Saskatchewan, eastern British Columbia, Montana, and the northern parts of Idaho and Washington.

Full text

Abstract:

The concept of sustained yield is examined with particular reference to the sustained yield concept as it is required to be applied by Alberta law and through the requirements of the regulations, timber quota certificates and forest management agreements. The adequacy of the sustained yield vision in Alberta is discussed. Actual forest management practices are examined in the light of the Alberta requirements. Some shortcomings are noted, and a number of serious problems are described. However, the author concludes that a dedicated and successful effort is being made, and the most important problems are being tackled vigorously, to the limit of the resources available. More funding is urgently needed to support cleaning and tending operations in young coniferous stands, particularly if governments continue to refuse to allow low cost brush control through the use of ground applications of federally approved biodegradable and non-toxic herbicides, such as glyphosate.
