... was officially established as a Canadian not-for-profit organization in 1998. The corporation's affiliation, central to the natural synergy of transportation and trade, was initiated in 1996 by way of an inter-provincial conference. Conference proceedings led to a 1997 federal transportation and trade potential. One of the study'stop recommendations was to implement a self-systaining organization to promote Canadian trade through this very capable route and from AsiaPacific markets. The study went on to say that greater awareness of the trade benefits for Canada by using both the north and south Western Canada Transportation Corridors must be undertaken as we enter the global millennium. Today the Northwest Corridor Development Corporation has a growing membership of private and public sector representatives, including utilities, transportation companies, manufacturers, labour groups, all three levels of government, and individuals.  2, fiche 1, Anglais, - Northwest%20Corridor%20Development%20Corporation

Treasury Board of Canada Secretariat, Financial & Information Management Branch, Government Review and Quality Services Division, April 5, 1995. This paper is addressed to federal review and quality management (QM) practitioners. It clarifies the concepts and practices involved in QM and review and documents lessons learned about their strengths and complementarity. It discusses opportunities for both, based on lessons learned from their strengths. It explores how intentional and visible collaboration between these functional groups can help both succeed in a more timely and cost-effective manner. The paper draws on discussions within the review and QM communities concerning direction, tactics and desirable partnerships. It is also based on Canadian experience in several jurisdictions and on developments in other OECD countries.  1, fiche 2, Anglais, - Potential%20synergy%20between%20review%20and%20quality%20management

Secrétariat du Conseil du Trésor du Canada, Direction de la gestion des finances et de l'information, Division de la revue gouvernementale et des services de qualité, le 5 avril 1995. Le présent document s'adresse aux praticiens des domaines de l'examen et de la gestion de la qualité (GQ) de l'administration fédérale. Il précise les notions et pratiques qui entrent en jeu dans la GQ et dans l'examen et il explique les enseignements retenus en ce qui a trait à leurs points forts et à leur complémentarité. Il analyse les avenues ouvertes aux deux fonctions, à partir des enseignements que leurs points forts ont permis de retenir. Il examine dans quelle mesure une collaboration intentionnelle et visible entre ces deux groupes fonctionnels pourra aider l'un et l'autre à parvenir à la réussite dans de meilleurs délais et de façon plus économique. Le document s'inspire de discussions tenues au sein des collectivités de l'examen et de la GQ à propos de l'orientation à se donner, des tactiques à suivre et des liens de partenariat qu'il est souhaitable d'établir. Il est également fondé sur l'expérience canadienne vécue dans plusieurs sphères de compétence et sur les réalisations accomplies dans d'autres pays de l'OCDE.  1, fiche 2, Français, - Possibilit%C3%A9%20de%20synergie%20entre%20la%20fonction%20d%27examen%20et%20la%20fonction%20de%20gestion%20de%20la%20qualit%C3%A9

... the Blended-Wing-Body(BWB) concept represents a potential revolution in subsonic transport.... In this study, 800 passenger BWB and conventional airplanes were compared for a 7000 nautical mile design range. ADP-class engines were used with technology levels keyed for a 2015 entry into service(EIS). In every measure, the BWB was found to be superior to the conventional configuration. Key findings for the BWB include : TOGW 15% lower[;] OEW 12% lower [;] Fuel-Burn 28% lower [;] Thrust 27% lower [;] L/D 21% higher [;] DOC 13% lower [. ] The BWB advantage results from a double-deck cabin that extends spanwise as well as lengthwise providing structural and aerodynamic overlap with the wing. This reduces the total wetted area of the airplane and the deep stiff centerbody provides efficient structural wingspan. Relaxed static stability allows optimal span loading, and a trailing-edge high-lift system is not required. Further synergy may be realized through buried engines that ingest the centerbody's boundary layer and thus reduce the effective ram drag.  2, fiche 3, Anglais, - blended%2Dwing%2Dbody%20project
