English

Subject field(s)
  • Titles of Federal Government Programs (Canadian)
  • Education (General)
  • Sociology of Childhood and Adolescence
OBS

This measure would directly benefit young people. As there is a focus on engaging groups underrepresented in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics training, there could be disproportionate benefits for girls, Indigenous young people, persons with disabilities, and those living in rural, remote, and northern communities.

OBS

Coding Skills for Kids: measure announced in the 2024 federal budget.

Domaine(s)
  • Titres de programmes fédéraux (Gouvernement canadien)

Cette mesure profiterait directement aux jeunes. Étant donné que l'on met l'accent sur la mobilisation de groupes sous-représentés dans la formation en sciences, en technologie, en ingénierie et en mathématiques, les filles, les jeunes autochtones, les personnes en situation de handicap et les personnes qui vivent dans des communautés rurales, éloignées et du Nord pourraient en tirer des avantages disproportionnés.

CONT

Biosparging is an in-situ remediation technology that uses indigenous microorganisms to biodegrade organic constituents in the saturated zone. In biosparging, air(or oxygen) and nutrients(if needed) are injected into the saturated zone to increase the biological activity of the indigenous microorganisms. Biosparging can be used to reduce concentrations of petroleum constituents that are dissolved in groundwater, adsorbed to soil below the water table, and within the capillary fringe.

Subject field(s)
  • Anti-pollution Measures
  • Soil Pollution
CONT

Bioventing is an in situ remediation technology that uses indigenous microorganisms to biodegrade organic constituents adsorbed to soils in the unsaturated zone. Soils in the capillary fringe and the saturated zone are not affected. In bioventing, the activity of the indigenous bacteria is enhanced by inducing air(or oxygen) flow into the unsaturated zone(using extraction or injection wells) and, if necessary, by adding nutrients.

French

Domaine(s)
  • Mesures antipollution
  • Pollution du sol
CONT

La bioaération est une forme de biodégradation selon laquelle l'oxygène est introduit sous forme d'air dans des sols contaminés, mais non saturés, au moyen d'un système de puits d'extraction et d'injection.

CONT

Les techniques «in situ» utilisées, dites de barbotage et de bioventilation, consistent à injecter de l'air frais à la base de la zone des sols contaminés et à extraire l'air vicié au dessus, juste sous les bâtiments.
