Women who are homeless or live on limited income face many difficulties such as finding shelter, a safe place to sleep for the night, and food. However, once a month, they face an additional stressor that is even more difficult to manage living on the margins: dealing with their menstrual cycle. For women in such circumstances the limited resources means making trade-offs and sacrifices when it comes to staying healthy and clean during their cycle.
This analysis is based on detailed operational and capital expenses provided by Ontario Power Generation (OPG). These included number of employees and employee salaries, primary contractors (with locations of businesses), goods and services required for the operation of the Pickering Nuclear Generating Station, and ongoing capital expenditures.
The INSPIRED Approaches to COPD: Improving Care and Creating Value Collaborative (INSPIRED) is a CFHI partnership with Boehringer Ingelheim Canada ltd. focused on educating patients and family members as part of a COPD action plan and self-management support program. As well, the collaboration provides reliable access to out-of-hospital (or post-discharge) clinical assessment and advice. The purpose of this analysis was to provide an independent evaluation of the potential net benefit and cost-effectiveness of CFHI’s pan-Canadian expansion of INSPIRED-Halifax.
The recently passed Bill 148: Fair Workplaces, Better Jobs Act, 2017 (the Act) represents a package of sudden and significant changes for Ontario businesses to digest over the next few years. Sectors such as accommodation and food are expected to be more affected by the labour changes given their lower gross operating margins and high proportion of minimum wage paying labour costs.
The objective of this study was to find an evidence-based and realistic understanding of the socio-economic value of the 329 hectares (813 acres) of industrial land occupied by Stelco (the “Lands”) on the southern shore of Hamilton Harbour.
The Fair Workplaces, Better Jobs Act, 2017 (Bill 148) is expected to increase the risks and uncertainties for many Ontario business sectors.
Canada’s shelter affordability challenge is complex, rife with data limitations, and poses risks associated with both action and inaction by policymakers. Unfortunately most of the existing commentary is singularly focused, ignoring this complexity and the interrelatedness of factors and behaviours that are actually driving the issue. In this research report, CANCEA applies its “systems approach” and “big data” modeling platform to housing affordability.
Using CANCEA’s award-winning computer platform – Prosperity at Risk (PaR) – and aggregated data from the Toronto Real Estate Board across 773 communities, this report investigates the impacts of transit (and the Regional Express Rail (RER) specifically) on housing affordability in the Greater Golden Horseshoe. Given “affordability” includes more than just housing prices – and must include transportation costs to provide a more complete picture of shelter-related needs – “affordability” is measured using CANCEA’s recognized Shelter Consumption Affordability Ratio (SCAR).
