Fighting the War Within: A Look at Ontario Metis Life and the Creation of a New Standard Post-Powley

Lauzer, Shawn 26 September 2012 (has links)
In Canada today there exists a new form of segregation towards the Métis people, called the Powley points. Because of it, Métis are being forced to become a different version of themselves, counter to their own personal identity, thereby creating a new standard of identity for Métis, one that not all Métis are able to meet because of historical factors. What the research shows is an over representation of Western Métis politics regarding Métis identity and the formation of it. I therefore, propose a change to the current status quo regarding how Métis are defined and how they are expected to define themselves within this system. For this thesis I rely primarily on archival research and textual analysis, such as journal articles, census data, and published material from the Métis organizations, to establish the current situation in Métis politics as well as my position regarding these issues.

Stanovení vybraných perfluoroalkylových sloučenin v komplexních matricích / Determination of selected perfluoroalkyl compounds in complex matrices

Ondreášová, Klára January 2014 (has links)
Diploma work focuses on the determination of selected representatives of perfluoroalkyl substances in complex matrices, particularly, in sewage sludge and feed. In case of sewage sludge, samples were extracted into methanol and three extractions techniques were compared: accelerated Soxhlet, pressurized liquid extraction and Powley method. Powley method showed sufficient efficiency, the lowest matrix effect and minimal background. Perfluorooctane sulfonate was present in all tested samples of sewage sludge (0.74–38.02 ng.g-1). Other detected compounds were perfluorodecanoic acid and perfluorooctanoic acid. Three extraction techniques were tested on feed samples (QuEChERS, fast methanol extraction and Powley method into acetonitrile). Powley method provided the cleanest extracts and showed simultaneously the highest recovery of native perfluoroalkyl substances and the lowest matrix effects. Perfluorooctane sulfonate and perfluorooctanoic acid were rarely present in samples of complete and supplemental feeds, while other perfluoroalkyl substances were found at levels below limit of quantification or they were not detected at all. Perfluorooctane sulfonate (0.100–2.768 ng.g-1), perfluoroundecanoic acid and perfluorotridecanoic acid were determined in all fish meal samples.

La Chaas : the Métis constitutional right to hunt in the Canadian legal consciousness

Bellemare, Bradley Shawn 24 April 2006
The purpose of this thesis is to discuss the constitutional right of the Métis to hunt in the Canadian legal consciousness in the four levels of court that heard the Powley case and comment on the judicial approach and observations. After a comparative analysis of the precedent setting Powley decision, a brief examination is undertaken of two recent cases regarding Métis rights in Canada: Laviolette and Willison. <p>Ultimately, the purpose of this research has been to show the treatment of Métis and First Nations Aboriginal rights have not been treated equally and to confront the challenges that this analysis raises. Section 35 of the Canadian Constitution has not provided the protections to Aboriginal rights that one would expect. In order to make changes to the legal system I have identified some fundamental problems with Aboriginal law in Canada associated with the identification of the source of those rights. <p>Further, I have made some suggestions on the approaches that could be taken to change the direction of the Supreme Court of Canada regarding its interpretations of Métis rights.
