The Children's Oral Health Initiative (COHI) was developed as a means to address the disparity between the oral health of First Nations and Inuit and that of the general Canadian population. COHI was launched on a test basis in Fall 2004. COHI focuses on the prevention of dental disease and promotion of good oral health practices. The goal of COHI is to shift the emphasis from a primarily treatment based approach to a more balanced prevention and treatment focus. The initial focus for oral health promotion will be directed at three target groups: pregnant women and primary caregivers; pre-school children, 0-4 years of age; and school children, 5-7 years of age. Health Canada expects that the COHI, once fully implemented in subsequent years, will result in significant improvement of the oral health in First Nations and Inuit. 1, record 4, English, - Children%27s%20Oral%20Health%20Initiative

L'Initiative en santé buccodentaire des enfants(ISBE) a été élaborée pour combler l'écart qui existe en matière de santé buccodentaire entre les collectivités des Premières nations et des Inuits et l'ensemble de la population canadienne. L'ISBE a été lancée à l'automne 2004 à titre d’essai. L'ISBE est essentiellement axé sur sur la prévention des maladies buccodentaires et la promotion de bonnes habitudes d’hygiène buccodentaire. L'ISBE, se concentre sur un programme plus équilibré de prévention et de traitement préventif plutôt que sur le traitement primaire même. La promotion de la santé buccodentaire s’adressera initialement aux trois groupes cibles suivants : les femmes enceintes et les principaux pourvoyeurs de soins; les enfants en âge préscolaire de 0 à 4 ans; les enfants en âge scolaire de 5 à 7 ans. Santé Canada prévoit une amélioration importante de la santé buccodentaire des Premières nations et des Inuits une fois la mise en œuvre de l'ISBE. 1, record 4, French, - Initiative%20en%20sant%C3%A9%20buccodentaire%20des%20enfants

Pendant cette semaine, les poètes réciteront des poèmes dans les villes et villages canadiens. Ils ne le feront pas en studio ni dans des amphithéâtres, mais plutôt là où ils sentent l'envie de le faire, que ce soit dans un parc public, un véhicule de transport en commun ou un salon de coiffure, ou même dans la rue. En outre, les poètes distribueront des recueils de poésie. La Semaine de la poésie à l'improviste est une initiative de Wendy Morton, une poétesse de Victoria. L'idée lui est venue que la poésie trouverait des adeptes si plus de gens y étaient exposés, peu importe l'endroit.

La franchise financière. Certaines franchises appellent de la part des franchisés des investissements lourds(hôtellerie par exemple). Ce type de franchise peut alors reposer sur le principe d’une dissociation entre le franchisé investisseur et le gestionnaire. C'est le cas, par exemple, de la franchise de restauration "Courte-paille" dans laquelle le franchisé financier est distinct du manager. Ce dernier est un salarié du franchiseur et non du franchisé investisseur qui est quand même présent sur le point de vente et s’occupe de la gestion générale de son affaire. Le franchisé reste le patron même si sa marge d’initiative est moins importante du fait de la présence du manager salarié du franchiseur. Le système fonctionne grâce à un équilibre entre les deux types de fonctions : le manager gère le point de vente comme un professionnel qu'il est. Le franchisé investisseur a un souci de rentabilité de ses investissements, se déchargeant des problèmes concrets de fonctionnement sur le manager. Cependant, en cas de conflit, le franchisé investisseur peut demander au franchiseur de remplacer le manager en place par un autre directeur salarié. 1, record 16, French, - franchise%20financi%C3%A8re
