Print is both in black and embossed. | Taken from acquisition worksheet: Beginning January 1 2001 all cattle in Canada have to be identified with an ear tag before they leave their herd of origin. The timing of this identification program has to do with stricter controls on monitoring cattle in direct response to BSE (Mad Cow) in the UK and Europe. Canada had its first reported case of BSE in 2003. This identification helps agencies like the Canada Food Inspection Agency (CFIA) trace the history of an infected animal to help ensure that no other infection reaches the human food chain. The Canadian Cattle Identification Agency manages the registry data for the national herd. | The number and RFID signal on the tag is used to identify and track individual animals (cows) by assigning them a unique number which is linked information on their origins and movement throughout the animal’s life. Tag printed with unique and number: once sealed the tag cannot be removed for re-use. The tag remains in place until after slaughter when carcass is inspected and declared acceptable. Only then are tag & number retired. | Taken from acquisition worksheet: Printed text does not wear off under normal use and the unit is equipped with an RFID chip which is used to easily access information about a specific animal.

This citizen cleanup operation and the physical evidence collected speaks to the changes needed in personal community and industrial behaviors and the importance of regulations to use less and produce more recyclable and biodegradable products. While this operation was centered on the Svalbard Archipelago the accumulation circulation and travel of ocean garbage mostly macro and micro plastics has become a global problem and concern especially in remote and environmentally sensitive marine ecosystems. Much is yet to learn about the impact of plastics on marine life and the effects on the fisheries of circumpolar nations such as Canada (see map at left the Beaufort Gyre Davis Strait and Ungava Bay) but also in the remote location of the deep sea where evidence of microplastics has been found inside hermit crabs squat lobsters and sea cucumbers at depths of between 980 and 6 000 feet (300-1 800 meters)¬í.

Black handwritten print with marker at the top of flag and a handwritten paper fastened to flag with two staples. | Taken from acquisition worksheet: The result of the Canadian flag debate was the introduction of the now common Maple Leaf design as the replacement for the Union Jack. At the time of its adoption the colours of the flag were as they appear today but there was no standard for the national flag of Canada. We had a good design – with the distinctive red bars and maple leaf – but no way of ensuring that the same “Canadian red” would appear on each new flag produced. Worse still there was no way of preventing this red from fading embarrassingly into an ugly orange or brown – often after only a few hours exposed to the weather outside. In 1965 only a few months after the new maple leaf icon was unveiled Prime Minister Lester B. Pearson commissioned the National Research Council to find a way to standardize the flag’s distinctive red colour and make sure it didn’t fade so quickly. Dr. GunterWyszecki of the National Research Council and his Laboratory working in colour metrology was tasked with setting the quantifiable parameters for the red colour in the Canadian flag as well as working with dye manufacturers to ensure a non-fading reproducible colour that would remain consistent with each batch. | Used as a colour sample in establishing the limits of the colour red in the Canadian Maple Leaf Flag. | Taken from acquisition worksheet: The Brook Mills red dye was one of the dyes that was used to set the limits for the red colour of the modern Canadian flag. Once the standard was determined by the National Research Council it was set in the Department of National Defence’s “Canadian Government Specification for the National Flag of Canada” (1965) standard. | fibre;paper;metal | http://source.techno-science.ca/artifacts-artefacts/images/2016.0148.001.aa.cs.png | http://source.techno-science.ca/artifacts-artefacts/images/2016.0148.001.aa.cs.thumb.png | ||||||||||||||||||||

Paralyzed from the waist down and confined to a wheelchair Christian quickly realized that existing assistive technology tended to limit his ability and comfort rather than enhancing them. For example as his wheelchair¬ís components were welded he was not able to adjust the height of the seat the position of his legs and the angle at which he sat which would have made the chair much more comfortable for his six-foot-four-inch frame.

Rather than adapting to the wheelchair Christian had decided to adapt the technology to suit his needs and that of others. While his designs were successful (he has owned two wheelchair companies and even appeared on CBC¬ís Dragon¬ís Den in 2010) wheelchairs were only really well suited to hard and relatively flat surfaces. His access to the parks and natural environments he enjoyed so much was still either severely limited or impossible as wheelchairs were not capable of travelling over rough terrain. Christian¬ís love for nature and the mountains soon had him thinking about ways to access the outdoors. A problem solver by nature he started by designing and testing a custom sit-ski.

However his initial device had stability problems as Christian often found himself tipping over when traveling over loose snow.

The initial prototype known as the InspiRider was a steerable vehicle that was entirely dependent on a guide known as a ¬ìsherpa¬î to allow the user to operate it. While the project was successful (the InspiRider is still used by CRIS Adaptive Adventures) Christian was determined to design a vehicle that would let him independently access the outdoors and the backcountry.

Rather than adapting to the wheelchair Christian had decided to adapt the technology to suit his needs and that of others. While his designs were successful (he has owned two wheelchair companies and even appeared on CBC¬ís Dragon¬ís Den in 2010) wheelchairs were only really well suited to hard and relatively flat surfaces. His access to the parks and natural environments he enjoyed so much was still either severely limited or impossible as wheelchairs were not capable of travelling over rough terrain. Christian¬ís love for nature and the mountains soon had him thinking about ways to access the outdoors. A problem solver by nature he started by designing and testing a custom sit-ski. He initially focused on winter sports as he saw snow as nature¬ís ramp that could equalize conditions and make it possible for him to cross-country ski the Banff backcountry. However his initial device had stability problems as Christian often found himself tipping over when traveling over loose snow. He eventually solved this by designing and fabricating an articulating frame that could accommodate itself to soft snow and slopes helping the rider retain his balance. The success of this articulating frame encouraged Christian to expand his efforts to include summer … | A wheeled assistive technology vehicle that has been developed to help people with physical disabilities access outdoor nature trails. | Taken from acquisition worksheet: Christian Bagg started manufacturing and perfecting the Parks Explorer around five years ago following the development of an articulating system for his custom sit-ski. The initial prototype known as the InspiRider was a steerable vehicle that was entirely dependent on a guide known as a ¬ìsherpa¬î to allow the user to operate it. While the project was successful (the InspiRider is still used by CRIS Adaptive Adventures) Christian was determined to design a vehicle that would let him independently access the outdoors and the backcountry. He eventually created the Parks Explorer by perfecting and adding several components to the InspiRider including a large rear wheel and a hand-cranked propulsion system. The Parks Explorer has evolved into what is basically a mechanical skeleton that is customized to fit an organization¬ís needs. The frame is manufactured with stainless steel while other components use carbon-fiber (seat and fender) and aluminum (articulating assembly) to reduce weight. As there are many forms of disability development of the Parks Explorer is an ongoing process as Christian wants to help as many people access the outdoors as he can. He is working on new adaptations with University of Calgary and SAIT students. Students are usually tasked with fixing problems identified by Christian and other Parks Explorer users and are given free range as long as their solution is mechanically reliable and fits within the interface of the Parks Explorer. As the Park Explorer is an accessibility vehicle special attention is always given to reliability and each component is thoroughly tested to insure the safety and comfort of users. Several systems have so far been developed these include special seats skis electronic/battery propulsion and a self-leveling robotic front end. Also while the Parks Explorer can be propelled independently it is designed so that it can be pushed or pulled by Sherpas in order to accommodate people who cannot use the vehicle autonomousl… | Non-motorized Ground Transportation | Cycles & cycling | Cycles | metal->aluminum - possible;synthetic->;wood->;glass->fibreglass | http://source.techno-science.ca/artifacts-artefacts/images/2016.0146.001.aa.cs.png | http://source.techno-science.ca/artifacts-artefacts/images/2016.0146.001.aa.cs.thumb.png | |||||||||||||||||
