In the United States, the scope of military assistance to civil authorities is more restricted than in other countries. The term "military assistance to civil authorities (MACA)" is used to include "military support to civil authorities (MSCA)" and "military assistance for civil disturbances (MACDIS)". The concepts represented by these terms are particular to the U.S. and their use should be reserved for American contexts. 4, record 13, English, - assistance%20to%20civil%20authorities

Au Canada, on fait la distinction entre «aide au pouvoir civil» et «aide aux autorités civiles». Le premier terme signifie l'aide militaire donnée aux autorités policières provinciales pour maintenir ou rétablir l'ordre public. Le deuxième terme fait référence à toute autre forme d'assistance militaire donnée à la communauté civile. Par exemple, les opérations de recherche et sauvetage, les interventions en cas d'actes terroristes, les urgences, l'aide humanitaire, la protection des pèches, de l'environnement et des frontières, la lutte contre le trafic des stupéfiants, les événements spéciaux, etc. 3, record 13, French, - aide%20aux%20autorit%C3%A9s%20civiles

The Northern Dimension concept covers a broad and diverse geographic area, stretching from the arctic and sub-arctic to the southern shores of the Baltic, and from North-West Russia in the East to Iceland and Greenland in the West. The Northern Dimension aims at addressing the special regional development challenges of northern Europe. These include harsh climatic conditions, long distances, wide disparities in standards-of-living, environmental challenges includings problems with nuclear waste and waste water management, and insufficient transport and border crossing facilities. The Northern Dimension is also intended to take advantage of the rich potential of the region, for example in terms of natural resources, economic dynamism and a rich cultural heritage. 1, record 15, English, - Northern%20Dimension

User services document what ITS [intelligent transportation systems] should do from the user's perspective. A broad range of users are considered, including the traveling public as well as many different types of system operators. Thirty-five user services formed the basis for the Canadian ITS Architecture development effort. The concept of user services allows system or project definition to begin by establishing the high level services that will be provided to address identified problems and needs.

The concept of "sustainable development" was first used in the mid-1970s, to suggest a broad policy goal of integrating environmental considerations into economic decisions. In 1980, the International Union for Conservation of Nature and Natural Resources(IUCN), in conjunction with UNEP [United Nations Environment Programme], the World Wildlife fund(WWF), and other organisations, published the World Conservation Strategy(WCS). In the WCS, the current and more complex implication of sustainable development emerged to imply, for example, operational linkages between resource use and sustainable yields, in light of the needs of future generations. 2, record 17, English, - World%20Conservation%20Strategy

The alternative to depending on training sites for classification is to apply the concept of signature extension. This term refers to the assumption that a single, more or less constant, spectral signature may be defined as characteristic of any class, and that this signature has broad(universal) applicability to any scene in a region, or even worldwide. As a specific example, the signature for winter wheat at its maturation should be essentially the same for fields in the U. S. Great Plains, Argentina, the Ukraine, and Australia-provided such variables as differing air masses, Sun position, soil types, soil moisture, etc. are compensated for. If that proves true, then an unknown feature or class in a given scene anywhere should be classifiable by comparing its spectral properties(for a Landsat pixel, its multiband digital number [DN] values) to a "data bank" containing standard values for each of many classes. The closest fit of the unknown's DN [digital number] values to those of some one class in the bank is assumed to identify it. 3, record 18, English, - signature%20extension

One of Canadian Tire Corp. Ltd. 's approaches to dealing with the challenge of productivity improvement is employee ownership. The firm is committed to the concept of share ownership for its profit-sharing plans. The plan is a broad coverage plan that applies equally to all full-time employees. Broad-based employee ownership increases the recognized value of the firm's business. Employees have stronger peer pressures to perform to the group standard, and they are more cost conscious.
