In Canada, injury remains the leading cause of death and disability for First Nations children living on or off reserve and for Inuit children. As a result, a number of activities have been undertaken to reduce the incidence and seriousness of the injuries. The Indian and Inuit Childhood Injury Prevention Program - which is also part of the Child Development Initiative (or Brighter futures) - encourages the development of community action projects likely to reduce the number of injuries in Native communities. 1, record 1, English, - Indian%20and%20Inuit%20Childhood%20Injury%20Prevention%20Program

Plea bargaining. ... Crown counsel and defence counsel negotiate out of court, and reach an agreement. Without purporting rigidly to limit the area on which agreements may be made, we say that usually such agreements are: 1. That Crown counsel will, if the accused pleads guilty to a lesser charge, withdraw a major charge. ... 2. That Crown counsel, in return for a plea of guilty by the accused to a charge, will recommend to the Court the imposition of some lenient form of sentence, say probation. Or there may be a bargain which embraces both the above factors. 5, record 4, English, - plea%20bargaining

For reasons that will become evident in the course of this working paper, ... we prefer to abandon the expression "plea bargaining" (which, to some, has an inherently negative connotation) in favour of more neutral terminology. In our view, the process with which we are concerned (though unquestionably flawed) may better be described as that of "plea negotiation", or the holding of "plea discussions". The object of that process is to reach a satisfactory agreement, not to give the accused a "bargain." Accordingly, our recommendations eschew the expression "plea bargain" and replace it with "plea agreement". We define that expression (again, in neutral terms) as "any agreement by the accused to plead guilty in return for the prosecutor's agreeing to take or refrain from taking a particular course of action". 7, record 4, English, - plea%20bargaining

L'origine de la notion de la plus entière bonne foi. La notion anglaise Utmost good faith(Uberrimae Fidei), remonte au droit maritime. Elle se situe au point d’origine du droit moderne des assurances. Les navires marchands étant bien souvent hors de portée d’examen et d’évaluation par l'assureur à cause de leurs multiples périples à travers l'Empire et au-delà, le droit britannique a rapidement reconnu l'importance de la bonne foi la plus haute, de la part du preneur ou de l'assuré. 2, record 6, French, - la%20plus%20enti%C3%A8re%20bonne%20foi
