Pour Casarez-Levison [1992], la victimisation est un processus qui compte quatre étapes, soit l'état de la victime avant le crime (prévictimisation), l'acte criminel proprement dit (victimisation), l'adaptation initiale (transition) et finalement un état où le fait d'avoir été victime d'un acte criminel fait partie de l'expérience de vie de la personne (résolution du problème). 1, record 3, French, - acte%20criminel

CBRNE events have additional dimensions that will complicate all aspects of emergency management. They are intended to maximize fear and disruption and may have elements designed to direct harm at first responders and first receivers, which in the case of specialists may have significant consequences on the capability to deal with the event itself. Further, deliberate acts will require the event scenes, which may be large and dispersed, to be managed as potential crime scenes, which creates specialized challenges in already complicated situations. 1, record 6, English, - chemical%2C%20biological%2C%20radiological%2C%20nuclear%20or%20explosives%20event

Les incidents CBRNE ont des dimensions supplémentaires qui compliquent tous les aspects de la gestion des urgences. Ils visent à maximiser la peur et les perturbations, et ils pourraient comporter des éléments destinés à causer des préjudices aux premiers intervenants et aux intervenants de première ligne. Lorsque ceux-ci sont des spécialistes, les incidents risquent d'avoir d'importantes conséquences sur la capacité d'intervention face à l'incident lui-même. En outre, en présence d'actes délibérés de ce genre, il faut gérer les lieux de l'incident, qui peuvent être vastes et dispersés, comme s'il s'agissait des lieux d'un crime éventuel, ce qui suscite des difficultés particulières dans une situation déjà compliquée. 2, record 6, French, - incident%20chimique%2C%20biologique%2C%20radiologique%2C%20nucl%C3%A9aire%20ou%20%C3%A0%20l%27explosif

In 1983, the Ministry of the Solicitor General of Canada, along with the cooperation of the Canadians for Crime Prevention alliance, introduced National Crime Prevention Week. In Québec, events for the very first Crime Prevention Week were coordinated by the Association des services de réhabilitation sociale du Québec and the Société de criminologie du Québec. These two agencies continue to remain strongly committed to developing crime prevention initiatives and promote crime prevention through conferences and seminars. Over the years, the Ministère took on an increasingly more active role in organizing the annual event devoted to crime prevention and today is the principal organizer. 1, record 7, English, - Crime%20Prevention%20Week

Canadians for Safe and Sober Driving was formed in 1983 as a direct result of the tragic and senseless death of 14-year-old Neil Gray of Brampton, who was killed by a drunk driver. That event fueled the passion of his parents and friends to act, and motivated by this terrible crime, they founded Against Drunk Driving(the Neil Gray Memorial Fund). 1, record 8, English, - Canadians%20for%20Safe%20and%20Sober%20Driving
