Enhance the product offering of an existing eco-friendly, glamping accommodations property

Host the Expo Labrador Conference and Trade Show during the summer of 2025

The purpose of this agreement is to assist Métis Nation-Saskatchewan in reviewing the environmental assessment (EA) and licence application for NexGen’s Rook 1 Project and in participating in a future Commission hearing process.

This project aims to strengthen community resilience by integrating young people, particularly young women, into a sustainable, inclusive economic system that promotes adaptation to climate change.

Project activities include: (1) establishing a system to finance technical and vocational training; (2) providing technical and vocational training for vulnerable young people, particularly women, in high-potential sectors of the blue and green circular economy; (3) building the capacity of young women and men in ecosystem management, biodiversity conservation, and restoration; (4) implementing nature-based solutions and sustainable practices for biodiversity conservation and restoration, led by young women; (5) creating a support unit to facilitate the professional integration of graduates in sectors related to the blue and green circular economy; and (6) establishing a sustainable entrepreneurial financing system for graduates.

The project seeks to strengthen the skills and resources of 46,061 people in 2 coastal regions of Senegal (the Saloum Delta and the River Delta), distributed across the following age groups: 34,066 young people aged 15 to 34 (50.5% women and 49.5% men) and 11,994 women over 35.

Canada’s assessed contribution to the UN Support to the African Union Mission in Somalia (UNSOA)

The World Customs Organization (WCO) is an independent intergovernmental body whose mission is to enhance the effectiveness and efficiency of customs administrations. The WCO currently has 177 member governments. A member of the WCO, Canada has taken a key role in areas such as trade facilitation, revisions to the Harmonized System, capacity building, combating counterfeiting and the development and implementation of the Framework of Standards to Secure and Facilitate Global Trade (SAFE). Canada’s contribution to the WCO advances its interests internationally, particularly given the importance of international trade for the Canadian economy.

Welcome international students from a wide range of countries and territories on a short-term study and research exchanges as part of the Emerging Leaders in the Americas and/or Study in Canada Scholarships Programs.

Leveraging data from over 20 Antarctic campaigns and a control study in an Arctic community, the research team proposes to conduct a comprehensive study aimed at unravelling the complex interplay of factors that impact sleep in isolate confined extreme environments and to examine fatigue and fatigue prediction in this context, which would support the developing potential countermeasures for health risks in human spaceflight as well as potential performance-enhancing measures. By applying Earth-based analogs, the study will provide insights directly relevant to the risks of future Canadian investigations on the International Space Station or Lunar Gateway.

The recent observation of a blood clot forming in the neck vein of an astronaut on the International Space Station could have been related to low or stagnant blood flow in the vein as astronauts no longer have a head-to-heart gravitational gradient during spaceflight. The current study will use novel high-frame rate ultrasound investigations of blood flow in the neck vein during parabolic flights that replicate the microgravity conditions of spaceflight. From the ultrasound signals, the research team will use vector flow imaging to assess across the full width of the vessel the potential for areas of stagnant flow that could elevate the risk for blood clot formation. These results could lead to an inflight diagnostic screening test and a tool for evaluation of potential countermeasures to prevent this serious health risk for astronauts.

Extended exposure to the isolated and extreme conditions at the Concordia station may induce mental fatigue, a state associated with mood disturbances, safety concerns, and work errors. The BREEZE-project aims to comprehensively evaluate mental fatigue, sleep, and physical fitness during an Antarctic overwintering campaign by tracking psychological, (neuro)physiological, and behavioral parameters.
