Download or read book An Investigation of the Relationship Between Health and Development in Northern Manitoba written by Karen Ginsberg and published by . This book was released on 1980 with total page 320 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The purpose of this paper is to investigate the relationship between health and development in northern Manitoba. The hypothesis is that health and development levels are positively associated because the same factors that sustain underdevelopment in northern Manitoba sustain poor health. Pipeline developments and the search for alternative energy sources have focussed the attention of governments and the general public on northern development problems. After a period of neglect, the North has come to figure prominently in decision-making at the federal and provincial Ievels. The Berger Commission Inquiry into the inpact of pipeline development and other studies, such as that completed in 1974 by Gemini North for Canadian Arctic Gas, have begun to highlight some of the potentially negative impacts of rapid large scale industrial development in the Arctic. Primarily, two negative impacts are cited. They are the destruction of the natural environment and an increase in social patholoty as a land-based people with a traditional economy are forced to become more urban-based and a part of a wage economy. Among the residents of northern Manitoba, similar kinds of concerns have and are still being raised. The existence of the Northern Flood Agreement, to which federal and provincial governments, Manitoba Hydro and the Northern Flood Committee (on behalf of the Cross Lake, Norway House, Nelson House, Split Lake and York Landing Indian Reserves) are signatories is one testimony to this ... What is known is that government activity in the Manitoba North in the last ten years has not substantially improved the socio-economic circumstances of native northerners. Despite this level of expenditure, a small percentage of native northerners is employed full time, their incomes are lower, and they have fewer educational opportunities with which to prepare themselves for the job market ... In view of the substantial financial investment and the apparently poor response to it, an investigation of a possible relationship which may shed light on what are the real constraints to development and what financial investment may lead to more successful policy interventions is pertinent. As the role of health as a factor in regional development has been given insufficient attention up to this point, the purpose of this paper is to investigate that factor.

Download or read book Clearing the Plains written by James William Daschuk and published by University of Regina Press. This book was released on 2013 with total page 345 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In arresting, but harrowing, prose, James Daschuk examines the roles that Old World diseases, climate, and, most disturbingly, Canadian politics--the politics of ethnocide--played in the deaths and subjugation of thousands of aboriginal people in the realization of Sir John A. Macdonald's "National Dream." It was a dream that came at great expense: the present disparity in health and economic well-being between First Nations and non-Native populations, and the lingering racism and misunderstanding that permeates the national consciousness to this day. " Clearing the Plains is a tour de force that dismantles and destroys the view that Canada has a special claim to humanity in its treatment of indigenous peoples. Daschuk shows how infectious disease and state-supported starvation combined to create a creeping, relentless catastrophe that persists to the present day. The prose is gripping, the analysis is incisive, and the narrative is so chilling that it leaves its reader stunned and disturbed. For days after reading it, I was unable to shake a profound sense of sorrow. This is fearless, evidence-driven history at its finest." -Elizabeth A. Fenn, author of Pox Americana "Required reading for all Canadians." -Candace Savage, author of A Geography of Blood "Clearly written, deeply researched, and properly contextualized history...Essential reading for everyone interested in the history of indigenous North America." -J.R. McNeill, author of Mosquito Empires

This book was released on 1990 with total page 368 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A common theme that links the chapters in this document is the centrality of political struggle, and its relationship to the origins, development, and structure of the political economy. Many of the chapters analyze important aspects of the origin and historical development of those struggles. Others focus on more recent developments, particularly the gradual transformation of the social and economic structure of the province, within which a wider variety of struggles has emerged, including those relating to the restructuring of the family, the redefinition of the role of women, the recomposition of the working class, and the renewed vitality of the struggles of Natives.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study develops a theoretical/conceptual framework for examining the underdevelopment of the nutrition and health of an impoverished and disadvantaged people living in the midst of an affluent, advantaged society. This thesis addresses four main problems. The first problem examined is whether modernization and socio-economic development contribute to or detract from human well-being in the form of good nutrition and good health. The second problem is the need to develop a theoretical perspective where nutrition and health, which inherently belong to the ecological paradigm, can be related to the modernization/underdevelopment paradigm, which is inherently sociological and economic in orientation. The third problem concerns the mechanisms by means of which the modernization and underdevelopment processes generate the structures which are expressed in the nutritional and health status of an impoverished people. The fourth problem is to determine whether northern Manitoba fits the Third World paradigm or if it exhibits the characteristics which make the region and its people a unique case of underdevelopment. The historical process-structure method is used to identify the historical processes of underdevelopment and the contemporary processes of modernization which generate structures of poverty, malnourishment and ill health ... This study identifies the modern market economy as the principal agent of the modernization process ... The case study on bottle feeding provides a near ideal example of how modernization, nutrition and health interact in the infant. Bottle feeding is examined from an ecological perspective to identify environmental, nutritional, medical, social, cultural and economic mechanisms which interact to generate appallingly poor nutrition and health among impoverished people who are modernized without leaving their poverty behind.

Download or read book COVID-19 in Manitoba written by Andrea Rounce and published by Univ. of Manitoba Press. This book was released on 2020-11-26 with total page 252 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: On 12 March 2020 Manitoba confirmed its first case of COVID-19. One week later, a province-wide state of emergency was declared, ushering in a new sense of urgency and rarely used government powers to protect Manitobans from the devastating global reach of the novel coronavirus. The wide-ranging impacts of the pandemic have touched every facet of Manitoba society and provincial responsibility, including health, economic development, social services, and government operations. COVID-19 has challenged the conventional policy-making process––complicating agenda setting and policy formulation, adoption, implementation, and evaluation––while governments have been under pressure to make swift decisions in life-and-death matters. New programs must address urgent and shifting health and economic realities, but also anticipate future waves of COVID-19 and potentially significant repercussions for future governments. "COVID-19 in Manitoba: Public Policy Responses to the First Wave" seeks to understand how Manitoba fared during the first months of the pandemic, with twenty-seven chapters that address key aspects of the pandemic and discuss how government policy can help lay the foundation for resiliency in the midst a continuing public-health crisis. This open-access volume is an essential resource for citizens and policy-makers alike, as it identifies policy gaps and successes of Manitoba’s early COVID response and points to strategies to prepare for future waves of the pandemic.
