CanCOVID was established in March 2020 with the support of... the federal government's Chief Science Advisor... in response to the COVID-19 pandemic. Under the guidance of an intersectoral committee, the organization grew to link over 2400 members of Canada's research community using digital networking tools. CanCOVID members have been able to collaborate across critical research and development areas, from clinical trials and testing, to diagnostics and treatment. With the support of the Government of Canada, CanCOVID has formed five key thematic research networks, based on priorities developed in collaboration with the government. These thematic research networks will address the government's key questions as they develop policy. 1, record 1, English, - CanCOVID

The larval stage bottleneck can occur over a short "critical period"... due to starvation following yolk absorption, or over a more protracted period from hatch to metamorphosis. … While the positive link found in all taxa between feeding success and growth supports the current larval growth-survival paradigm, the much stronger association between these vital rates combined to the higher growth serial correlation in fast-growing species indicate that the potential for a "critical period" during the first-feeding stage could be [highest] in fast-growing fish... 1, record 2, English, - first%20feeding%20stage

The influence of the Aboriginal struggle for self-determination is a critical environmental factor for the assessment of Aboriginal federally sentenced women. For example, the recent founding of the Aboriginal Women's Caucus, with its mandate to speak on behalf of Aboriginal women in conflict with the law, can be seen as a structural articulation of the link made by Aboriginal women between self-determination and corrections. The conclusion is inescapable that if women generally are disadvantaged by social stereotypes and economic disparities, Aboriginal women suffer discrimination within discrimination through the addition of racial stereotypes. However, this conclusion has not yet been explicity incorporated within government thinking. 1, record 9, English, - Aboriginal%20Women%27s%20Caucus

On ne peut échapper à la conclusion voulant que si les femmes en général souffrent des stéréotypes sociaux et des disparités économiques, les femmes autochtones souffrent d'une double discrimination en raison des stéréotypes raciaux.

Once bound, the allergen can become detached from the plate and this is particularly critical if it occurs during the assay...

In this regard, several important factors such as phosphorus loading from other sources, flushing rate of the lake, capacity of the shoreline soils to bind phosphorus, and so on, required investigation. It was recognized that the critical link between phosphorus levels and effects on the trout population was the oxygen level(or more correctly, the oxygen deficit) in the hypolimnion. This oxygen level could be translated into carrying capacity for trout which determined the maximum trout biomass that could be supported by the lake. 2, record 12, English, - oxygen%20content

Voters are more discerning than the critics of hyperdemocracy. Technology's new challenge ideally at least, is to re-empower voters and revitalize democracy through more direct popular representation. Pitfalls do abound. The same technology able to identify and link citizens and political institutions will also necessarily facilitate nationwide identification systems and increased governmental surveillance. This will undoubtedly prompt a second neo-Orwellian howl to accompany an elitist shudder over entrusting the people-the booboisie as a 21st century cybermob. But overall, the favorable balance that should result is compelling. Here are five critical circumstances and developments that we should all monitor carefully in the future : putting politics on line, creating virtual Washington, expanding individual voting, creating national referendums, and increasing choice of parties. 1, record 14, English, - hyperdemocracy

..., it was necessary to examine the magnitude of the increase in phosphorus loading to the lake. In this regard, several important factors such as phosphorus loading from other sources, flushing rate of the lake, capacity of the shoreline soils to bind phosphorus, and so on, required investigation. It was recognized that the critical link between phosphorus levels and effects on the trout population was the oxygen level(or more correctly, the oxygen deficit) in the hypolimnion. This oxygen level could be translated into carrying capacity for trout which determined the maximum trout biomass that could be supported by the lake. 1, record 15, English, - phosphorous%20loading
