Projet de Café-boutique Jehane-Benoit
Un peu plus de 30 ans après le décès de madame Jehane Benoit, le musée, qui lui avait rendu hommage en 2012 en réalisant une exposition sur sa vie et son œuvre, prévoit réaménager en 2018 un nouvel espace, non seulement pour raconter l'histoire de cette femme extraordinaire qui a vécu à Sutton, mais aussi pour mettre en valeur tout ce qu'elle nous a légué, inspiré de sa propre boutique Noirmouton qui se trouvait sur sa ferme, près du Mont Écho.

Stephen Leacock Canadian Humourist
Stephen Leacock was born in Swanmore[3], a village near Southampton in southern England. He was the third of the eleven children born to (Walter) Peter Leacock (b.1834), who was born and grew up at Oak Hill on the Isle of Wight, an estate that his grandfather had purchased after returning from Madeira where his family had made a fortune out of plantations and Leacock's Madeira wine, founded in 1760. Stephen's mother, Agnes, was born at Soberton, the youngest daughter by his second wife (Caroline Linton Palmer) of the Rev. Stephen Butler, of Bury Lodge, the Butler estate that overlooked the village of Hambledon, Hampshire. Stephen Butler (for whom Leacock was named), was the maternal grandson of Admiral James Richard Dacres and a brother of Sir Thomas Dacres Butler, Usher of the Black Rod. Leacock's mother was the half-sister of Major Thomas Adair Butler, who won the Victoria Cross at the siege and capture of Lucknow.
Peter's father, Thomas Murdock Leacock J.P., had already conceived plans eventually to send his son out to the colonies, but when he discovered that at age eighteen Peter had married Agnes Butler without his permission, almost immediately he shipped them out to South Africa where he had bought them a farm. The farm in South Africa failed and Stephen's parents returned to Hampshire, where he was born.[4] When Stephen was six, he came out with his family to Canada, where they settled on a farm near the village of Sutton, Ontario, and the shores of Lake Simcoe.[5] Their farm in the township of Georgina in York County was also unsuccessful, and the family was kept afloat by money sent from Leacock's paternal grandfather. His father became an alcoholic; in the fall of 1878, he travelled west to Manitoba with his brother E.P. Leacock (the subject of Stephen's book My Remarkable Uncle, published in 1942), leaving behind Agnes and the children.[6]
Stephen Leacock, always of obvious intelligence, was sent by his grandfather to the elite private school of Upper Canada College in Toronto, also attended by his older brothers, where he was top of the class and was chosen as head boy. Leacock graduated in 1887, and returned home to find that his father had returned from Manitoba. Soon after, his father left the family again and never returned.[6] There is some disagreement about what happened to Peter Leacock; some suggest that he went to live in Argentina,[7] while other sources indicate that he moved to Nova Scotia and changed his name to Lewis.[6]
In 1887, seventeen-year-old Leacock started at University College at the University of Toronto, where he was admitted to the Zeta Psi fraternity. His first year was bankrolled by a small scholarship, but Leacock found he could not return to his studies the following year because of financial difficulties. He left university to work as a teacher—an occupation he disliked immensely—at Strathroy, Uxbridge and finally in Toronto. As a teacher at Upper Canada College, his alma mater, he was able simultaneously to attend classes at the University of Toronto and, in 1891, earn his degree through part-time studies. It was during this period that his first writing was published in The Varsity, a campus newspaper.

SUMMARY
=======
A street light, light pole, lamppost, street lamp, light standard or lamp standard is a raised source of light on the edge of a road or path. When urban electric power distribution became ubiquitous in developed countries in the 20th century, lights for urban streets followed, or sometimes led.
Many lamps have light-sensitive photocells that activate automatically when light is or is not needed: dusk, dawn, or the onset of dark weather. This function in older lighting systems could have been performed with the aid of a solar dial. Many street light systems are being connected underground instead of wiring from one utility post to another.

Now What?! Advocacy, Activism, and Alliances in American Architecture since 1968
Opening Presentation and Panel Discussion | The Now What?! exhibition examines the little-known history of architects and designers working to further the causes of the civil rights, women’s, and LGBTQ movements of the past fifty years. A presentation and panel discussion on the exhibition's opening night will feature talks by Lori Brown (Syracuse University), Sarah Rafson (Point Line Projects) and Roberta Washington (Roberta Washington Architects), with a special presentation by Robert T. Coles, FAIA, and a conversation with Joyce Hwang, Kelly Hayes McAlonie and Beth Tauke of UB. An exhibit opening reception in the Hayes Hall atrium will follow.
This exhibition writes the overlooked histories of activist architects and organizations who were—and still are—at the forefront of the profession’s participation in larger social and political movements over the last 50 years. This intersectional and interdisciplinary look at the design professions draws historical connections and serves as the only comprehensive narrative of activism in US architecture and design that spans these generations and disparate causes. Now What?! offers an in-depth look at diversity and activism in the design professions since 1968 while crafting a space for public debate and dialogue that looks back as much as it projects forward.

SUMMARY
=======
Portsmouth ( (listen)) is a port city in Hampshire, England, with a total population of 205,400 residents. The city of Portsmouth is nicknamed Pompey and is mainly built on Portsea Island, a flat, low-lying island measuring 24 square kilometres (9 sq mi) in area, just off the south-east coast of Hampshire. Portsmouth is the only island city in the United Kingdom, and is the only city whose population density exceeds that of London.Portsmouth is located 70 miles (110 km) south-west of London and 19 miles (31 km) south-east of Southampton. With the surrounding towns of Gosport, Fareham, Havant and Waterlooville, Portsmouth forms the eastern half of the South Hampshire metropolitan area, which includes Southampton and Eastleigh in the western half.
Portsmouth's history can be traced back to Roman times. A significant naval port for centuries, Portsmouth has the world's oldest dry dock. In the sixteenth century, Portsmouth was England's first line of defence during the French invasion of 1545. By the early nineteenth century, the world's first mass production line was set up in Portsmouth Dockyard's Block Mills, making it the most industrialised site in the world and birthplace of the Industrial Revolution. Portsmouth was also the most heavily fortified town in the world, and was considered the world's greatest naval port at the height of the British Empire throughout Pax Britannica. Defences known as the Palmerston Forts were built around Portsmouth in 1859 in anticipation of another invasion from continental Europe.
In 1926, Portsmouth was officially elevated in status from a town to a city. The motto Heaven's Light Our Guide, a reference to the city's eight-pointed star and crescent moon emblem, was registered to the City of Portsmouth in 1929. During the Second World War, the city of Portsmouth was bombed extensively in the Portsmouth Blitz, which resulted in the deaths of 930 people. In 1944, Portsmouth was the pivotal embarkation point for the D-Day landings of 6 June 1944. In 1982, a large proportion of the task force dispatched to liberate the Falkland Islands deployed from the city's naval base. Her Majesty's Yacht Britannia left the city to oversee the transfer of Hong Kong in 1997, which marked for many the end of the empire. In 1997, Portsmouth became a Unitary Authority, with Portsmouth City Council gaining powers of a non-metropolitan county and district council combined, responsibilities previously held by Hampshire County Council.
Portsmouth is one of the world's best known ports. HMNB Portsmouth is considered to be the home of the Royal Navy and is home to two-thirds of the UK's surface fleet. The city is home to some famous ships, including HMS Warrior, the Tudor carrack Mary Rose and Horatio Nelson's flagship, HMS Victory (the world's oldest naval ship still in commission). The former HMS Vernon naval shore establishment has been redeveloped as a retail park known as Gunwharf Quays. Portsmouth is am ...

CRTC, dossier 2013-155, Service Relais Vidéo,
Bonjour CRTC,
Dossier 2013-155
Pour la consultation publique en octobre, oui je suis intéressé.
Je m'appelle Martin Boucher, je suis sourd et francophone de la province de Québec, de la ville de Montréal.
Je suis en faveur du SRV.
Quelles sont mes raisons pour être en faveur du SRV?
Je suis connaissant dans ce qui touche les commerces Sourds à travers les provinces et territoires du Canada. Mais je m'y connais surtout pour la province du Québec en milieu francophone.
Avec le SRB, comment puis-je être convaincant pour mes clients? Car avec le SRV, la communication avec notre langue des signes est enrichie avec beaucoup plus de mots et nos expressions faciales donnent des nuances supplémentaires. Également nous pouvons voir les expressions sur l'interprète du SRV qui représente le ton de la voix de la personne entendante que j'appelle.
Souvent les entendants veulent mieux comprendre comment fonctionne nos productions. Ceci est très technique et prend énormément de temps à expliquer par écrit. Avec les signes on économise du temps et nous sommes plus clairs et on peut mieux faire connaître nos expertises en production.
Quand je crée un projet il y a des mots clefs souvent technique que nous ne connaissons pas. Nous mettons alors ce dossier de côté et avec le temps les dossiers s'accumulent. Imaginez que par après les appels par SRB, ça serait un cauchemar, donc on a pas le choix d'attendre (d'avoir un interprète pour faire les appels). Avec le SRV, on peut avoir nos réponses rapidement et à n'importe quel moment. La pile de dossiers empilés disparaît.
Les entrepreneurs entendants ont déjà leur service et donc ils n'ont pas d'embûches. Mais pour nous, on doit compenser en mettant de côté un budget pour embaucher des interprètes qui peuvent relayer ce que je dis. Notre budget se consomme vite et donc comment puis-je faire passer aux autres objectifs de mon entreprise? Pour travailler avec des interprètes il faut prendre le temps d'organiser des rendez-vous selon les disponibilités des interprètes mais ceci consomme de mon temps et limite nos possibilités. Notre entreprise se trouve donc pénalisée à cause du manque de service égal à celui pour les entendants.
Il m'est arrivé d'avoir une cliente très importante avec peu de disponibilité. On s'est entendus avec une date pour discuter des projets. Une fois la date obtenue, j'ai fait un rendez-vous avec un interprète et pris de l'argent de mon budget pour pouvoir discuter au téléphone. Mais malheureusement ma cliente a eu un imprévu et j'ai embauché un interprète pour rien. J'ai dû payer les frais de service de l'interprète malgré l'annulation. Avec SRV je n'aurais pas à faire cette dépense.
Lorsque nos messages sur le répondeur s'accumulent suffisamment pour que l'embauche d'un interprète en vaut la peine, on se rend compte que certains appels étaient urgents et qu'on vient de perdre un/des contrats.
Connaissez vous ce que ça coûte pour une compagnie privée pour embaucher des interprètes?
Il faut couvrir les frais de déplacements, les honoraires (de 25$ à 80$ de l'heure selon leurs niveaux de compétences). Les Sourds doivent être très organisés et l'horaire devient donc très rigide. Les entendants ne font aucune dépense pour leurs appels locaux. Donc ceci est une inégalité. Pendant une période où les ventes sont faibles, avec quel budget puis-je faire des appels de promotion?
Parfois j'explique à mes clients comment cela fonctionne pour appeler avec le SRB pour me rappeler. Par la suite je n'ai pas de nouvelles d'eux. Je me questionne si je n'ai pas bien expliquer le fonctionnement du SRB. Avec SRV, je peux voir dans les expressions de l'interprète s'ils me suivent et si ce que je dis est clair.
Aussi, avec le SRV lorsque nous discutons de situations techniques, avec l'interprète c'est facile de voir visuellement les directives. Avec le SRB, comment puis-je mieux comprendre (1 image vaut 1000 mots) ?
En conclusion, comme vous le savez, le gouvernement encourage que les personnes handicapées comme nous les sourds de travailler. On crée des entreprises et de l'emploi au sein de ces entreprises, ce qui est bien, mais avec les embûches du téléphone nous n'avançons pas si loin. Avec le SRV ça libère notre budget pour pouvoir embaucher plus de Sourds dans nos commerces qui sont accessibles pour eux! Les entendants n'auront plus à se stresser à l'idée de nous embaucher, car nous aurons nos entreprises accessibles en place et nous sommes organisés pour travailler avec des clients entendants.
Merci de prendre le temps de nous écouter.
Le SRV est essentiel à la réussite de l'avenir de nos commerces et entreprises!
