Building Cultural Sustainability: An Applied Research Model

Financial constraints are a significant barrier to sustainable practices within Canada’s cultural sector and especially within the performing arts. This situation has been exacerbated by COVID, with significant hits to economic impact and employment observed at the municipal level. In addition, physical space, digital fluency and access to technology are primary concerns for small/medium organizations. Higher Education Institutions have these features and technologies, and use them for applied education, academic conferences and hosting events. Greater collaboration between municipalities, small/medium-sized cultural organizations and Higher Education Institutions (HEIs) would bring significant benefits to all three groups, while also generating sustainable financial and cultural practices. Making these spaces, technical resources, and expertise available to smaller cultural organizations will alleviate financial and programming pressures and create significant educational and cultural benefits. Access to space can be leveraged by HEIs to create work-integrated learning opportunities and field-placements for students. Smaller performing arts organizations can further build upon these connections to develop the technical skills required in a post-pandemic environment. By harnessing the expertise, skills and equipment available at HEIs, organizations can develop methods to take their programming beyond the local community and into the national or international arena.

Evaluation of a Li selective sorbent durability at lab pilot scale

Recion has developed a sustainable process to extract Li from various Li-bearing brines including oilfield brines found in Alberta and produce lithium products for use in lithium-ion batteries. The Li extraction involves an ion exchange step through which Li ions are selectively separated by a sorbent proprietary to Recion. To scale up and pilot the process in the field, the durability of the sorbent needs to be investigated using Recion’s benchtop and lab pilot units.

Physical and Cognitive Performance Impairment of Cannabis Consumption in Adults Over Time

After legalisation, cannabis use has become more widespread, and consumption has increased in Canada. There is a need for more insight into the extent of impairment caused by cannabis in adults. The goal of this proposed research project is to determine the degree of impairment in adults after cannabis ingestion. We will study the effect of cannabis and its impairment in adults aged 19 to 65 years old over the course of 1, 4, 8, 12, 24, 48, and 7 days. We will recruit individuals for the study and administer various approved tests to determine the degree of cannabis’ impairment.

Building a leading Paralympic Organization: Strategic Renewal at the Canadian Paralympic Committee.

The Canadian Paralympic Committee’s vision is to be the world’s leading Paralympic nation. Its mission is to lead the development of a sustainable Paralympic sport system in Canada to enable athletes to reach the podium at the Paralympic Games. By supporting Canadian high-performance athletes with a disability and promoting their success, the Canadian Paralympic Committee inspires all Canadians with a disability to get involved in sport through programs delivered by its member organizations. Central to the CPC’s pursuit of becoming the world’s leading Paralympic nation, is the consistent evaluation of its operations to ensure they are incorporating best practices throughout their business. There is little consensus as to the best methods sport organizations should employ to leverage commercial touchpoints (i.e., communications, partnerships, philanthropy) points for innovation. This project will focus on working with CPC to complete two tasks simultaneously – first to undertake a comprehensive review of the performance of the organization’s operations to identify specific areas or practices that require improvement and second to undertake an environmental scan of a variety of industries (i.e., business, sport, technology, hospitality) best practices and emerging trends. The results of these two tasks will be used to assist the CPC in identifying practices to adopt to improve current and long-term strategic performance. Overall, this internal strategic review and the identification and evaluation of best practices are critical to ensuring CPC realizes its strategic goal becoming the world’s leading Paralympic nation.

Local in situ Controlled Delivery of Biphosphonates in Bone Metastasis

We propose to develop in collaboration with Medtronic Canada a bioceramic drug delivery system for the local controlled release of Biphosphonates (BP) – drugs that prevent bone resorption – to promote both tumor inhibition and bone regeneration at the site of bone tumor resection, eliminating the need for high systemic doses and side effects associated with BP. To this end we will fabricate bioceramic bone grafts by 3D printing, a technique that not only allows us to personalised each implants according to the exact geometry and location of the bony defect but also to endow the implant with internal structure that can be used to store or control the release of bioactive agents. Interns will each participate in a detailed aims of the project, including laboratory work with and without cells. This work will ultimately lead to testing in standard bone-tumor animal models. This work using novel fabrication technique of bone graft fits with Medtronic’s orthobiologics and biosurgery for bone repair product lines and R&D interests.

Natural language processing for Market Intelligence

LeadSift is a marketing intelligence platform that generates qualified leads by using signals from the public web to identify which companies are in the market for specific products or services. The company does so by sifting through unstructured public data so companies can easily identify, understand and engage in-market audiences with creatively relevant, personalized outreach. LeadSift’s platform processes millions of posts a day (such as twitter, web pages, blogs, etc.) and these data points are passed on directly to the customers that make it into their automated workflows via an application programming interface (API). As a result, companies can move their pipeline faster than ever before and make informed decisions. Given the data volumes that LeadSift’s platform processes, the company would like to design a detailed data analytics plan that includes using natural language processing (NLP) and machine learning to organize, structure and get value from unstructured data.

Development and commercialization of an enhanced biochar production technology

The goal of this MITACS funded project is to advance existing technology for the production of biochar from sustainably harvested woody biomass. Current technology limits the amount of biochar produced from the raw wood. This project will evaluate the increase in production of biochar by some 30%.
Biochar is a very resistant form of carbon that can be sequestered in soil and has a lifetime of approximately 500 years, making it a good means to reduce carbon in the atmosphere. Trees (often dead or dying trees) are harvested and the carbon tilled into the soil. The new trees will replace the harvested trees to capture CO2 from the atmosphere. In addition to removing carbon dioxide, the biochar is a significant benefit to plant growth, harvest yields, reduced fertilizer use, improved water use efficiency and a reduction in heavy metal uptake by plants. Science has suggested that the use of biochar could result in a very significant contribution to our goals or reducing greenhouse gas levels in the atmosphere while benefiting soil health.

Language Roadmaps as Policy Instruments: A Comparative Analysis Federal Language Ideology

Language plays a central role in Canadian identity and nationhood. This project seeks to uncover, map and explain the effect of political ideologies in the development of language policy instruments, specifically language road maps/action plans. We will build upon existing research which establishes the validity of the Government of Canada’s Action Plans (2003-2008 & 2018-2023) and Roadmaps (2008-2013 & 2013-2018) as policy instruments. These instruments provide an excellent opportunity to better understand how political ideologies serve to interpret and reinterpret language rights and governance in Canada. Furthermore, this research will provide crucial data and information to our partner organization, the Federation des communautes francophones et acadienne, and its members, as they prepare to negotiate the next action plan for official languages (2023-2028), and will contribute towards the intern’s doctoral dissertation.
