621236 | Hung jury | https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Hung%20jury | Hung jury
Hung jury
A hung jury or deadlocked jury is a judicial jury that cannot agree upon a verdict after extended deliberation and is unable to reach the required unanimity or supermajority.
This situation can occur only in common law legal systems, because civil law systems either do not use juries at all or provide that the defendant is automatically acquitted if the majority or supermajority required for conviction is not reached during a single, solemn vote.
# Australia.
In Australia, it used to be the case in criminal trials, that a unanimous verdict must be reached, until the advent of majority juries.
# Canada.
In Canada, the jury must reach a unanimous decision on criminal cases. If the | 13,502 |
621236 | Hung jury | https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Hung%20jury | Hung jury
jury cannot reach a unanimous decision, a hung jury is declared. A new panel of jurors will be selected for the retrial. Each jury in criminal courts contain twelve jurors. However this is not the case in civil cases. In civil cases, only six people are necessary for a jury, and if there is one dissenter but the rest are unanimous (i.e. a 5-1 vote) the one dissenter can be ignored with the majority opinion becoming the final verdict.
# New Zealand.
In New Zealand, the jury must initially try to reach a unanimous verdict. If the jury cannot reach a unanimous verdict after a reasonable time given the nature and complexity of the case (but not less than four hours), then the court may accept | 13,503 |
621236 | Hung jury | https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Hung%20jury | Hung jury
a majority verdict. In criminal cases, an all-but-one vote is needed (i.e. 11–1 with a full jury); in civil cases, a three-fourths vote is needed (i.e. 9–3 with a full jury).
If the jury fails to reach either a unanimous or majority verdict after a reasonable time, the presiding judge may declare a hung jury, and a new panel of jurors will be selected for a retrial. If the retrial also results in a hung jury, the case must be referred to the Solicitor-General. The Solicitor-General will generally issue a stay of proceedings unless there are compelling reasons to proceed with a third trial.
# United Kingdom.
## England and Wales.
In England and Wales a majority of 10–2 (10–1 if only eleven | 13,504 |
621236 | Hung jury | https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Hung%20jury | Hung jury
jurors remain) is needed for a verdict; failure to reach this may lead to a retrial.
Initially, the jury will be directed to try to reach a unanimous verdict. If they fail to reach a unanimous verdict, the judge may later (after not less than two hours) give directions that a majority verdict will be acceptable, but still no less than ten to two, although the jury should continue to try to reach a unanimous verdict if possible.
When the jury is called to deliver a verdict after majority directions have been given, a careful protocol of questions is followed: only in the event of a guilty verdict is it then asked whether or not all jurors were agreed on that verdict, to prevent any acquittal | 13,505 |
621236 | Hung jury | https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Hung%20jury | Hung jury
from being tainted by it being disclosed that any jurors dissented. The protocol is followed separately for each charge.
## Scotland.
It is not possible to have a hung jury in Scotland in criminal cases. Juries consist of 15, and verdicts are decided by simple majority (8) of the initial membership. If jurors drop out because of illness or another reason, the trial can continue with a minimum of 12 jurors, but the support of 8 jurors is still needed for a guilty verdict; anything less is treated as an acquittal.
In civil cases there is a jury of 12, with a minimum of 10 needed to continue the trial. It is possible to have a hung jury if there is a tied vote after three hours' deliberation.
# | 13,506 |
621236 | Hung jury | https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Hung%20jury | Hung jury
United States.
In the United States, the result is a mistrial, and the case may be retried ("United States v. Perez", 1824). Some jurisdictions permit the court to give the jury a so-called Allen charge, inviting the dissenting jurors to re-examine their opinions, as a last-ditch effort to prevent the jury from hanging. The Federal Rules of Criminal Procedure state, "The verdict must be unanimous. . . . If there are multiple defendants, the jury may return a verdict at any time during its deliberations as to any defendant about whom it has agreed. . . . If the jury cannot agree on all counts as to any defendant, the jury may return a verdict on those counts on which it has agreed. . . . If | 13,507 |
621236 | Hung jury | https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Hung%20jury | Hung jury
the jury cannot agree on a verdict on one or more counts, the court may declare a mistrial on those counts. A hung jury does not imply either the defendant's guilt or innocence. The government may retry any defendant on any count on which the jury could not agree."
Juries in criminal cases are generally, as a rule, required to reach a unanimous verdict, and juries in civil cases typically have to reach a majority on some level. If a defendant has been found guilty of a capital offense, one that could result in the death penalty if the person is eligible, the opinion of the jury must be unanimous if the defendant is to be sentenced to death. Currently, only one state, Oregon, does not require | 13,508 |
621236 | Hung jury | https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Hung%20jury | Hung jury
unanimous verdicts in all criminal cases. Oregon requires a 10-2 majority for most felony convictions, but unanimity for first degree murder.
In jurisdictions giving those involved in the case a choice of jury size (such as between a six-person and twelve-person jury), defense counsel in both civil and criminal cases frequently opt for the larger number of jurors. A common axiom in criminal cases is that "it takes only one to hang," referring to the fact that in some cases, a single juror can defeat the required unanimity.
One proposal for dealing with the difficulties associated with hung juries has been to introduce supermajority verdicts to allow juries to convict defendants without unanimous | 13,509 |
621236 | Hung jury | https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Hung%20jury | Hung jury
agreements amongst the jurors. Hence, a 12-member jury that would otherwise be deadlocked at 11 for conviction and 1 against, would be recorded as a guilty verdict. The rationale for majority verdicts usually includes arguments involving so-called 'rogue jurors' who unreasonably impede the course of justice. Opponents of majority verdicts argue that it undermines public confidence in criminal justice systems and results in a higher number of individuals convicted of crimes they did not commit.
In United States military justice, the Uniform Code of Military Justice (10 U.S.C. Chapter 47) Article 52 specifies the minimum number of court martial panel members required to return a verdict of guilty. | 13,510 |
621236 | Hung jury | https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Hung%20jury | Hung jury
In cases that involve a mandatory death sentence, a unanimous vote of all panel members is required. In cases that involve mandatory life sentences or sentences of confinement over ten years, a three-fourths vote is required. In all other cases, only a two-thirds vote is required to convict. Additionally, the Manual for Courts-Martial requires only a judge and a specified number of panel members (five for a general court-martial or three for a special court-martial; no panel is seated for a summary court-martial) in all non-capital cases. In capital cases, a panel of 12 members is required.
## Hung jury in sentencing phase of death penalty trials.
Of the 30 U.S. states with the death penalty, | 13,511 |
621236 | Hung jury | https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Hung%20jury | Hung jury
28 provide the sentence to be decided by a jury, and 27 require a unanimous sentence.
However, the states differ on what happens if the penalty phase results in a hung jury:
- In 4 states (Arizona, California, Kentucky and Nevada), a retrial of the penalty phase will be conducted before a different jury (the common-law rule for mistrial).
- In 2 states (Indiana and Missouri), the judge will decide the sentence.
- In the 22 other states, a hung jury results in a life sentence, even if only one juror opposed death. Federal law also provides that outcome.
The first outcome is referred as the "true unanimity" rule, while the third has been criticized as the "single-juror veto" rule.
In Alabama, | 13,512 |
621236 | Hung jury | https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Hung%20jury | Hung jury
e "true unanimity" rule, while the third has been criticized as the "single-juror veto" rule.
In Alabama, the sentence is decided by the jury and at least 10 jurors must concur. A retrial happens if the jury deadlock.
Nebraska is the only state in which the sentence is decided by a three-judge panel. If one of the judges on the panel opposes death, the defendant is sentenced to life imprisonment. Montana is the only state where the trial judge decides the sentence alone.
In all states in which the jury is involved, only death-qualified veniremen can be selected in such a jury, to exclude both people who will always vote for the death sentence and those who are categorically opposed to it. | 13,513 |

1945 Canadian federal election
The Canadian federal election of 1945 was the 20th general election in Canadian history. It was held June 11, 1945 to elect members of the House of Commons of Canada of the 20th Parliament of Canada. Prime Minister William Lyon Mackenzie King's Liberal government was re-elected to its third consecutive government, although this time with a minority government as the Liberals fell five seats short of a majority.
Although the election officially resulted in a minority government, the election of eight "Independent Liberal" MPs, most of whom did not run as official Liberals because of their opposition to conscription (see Conscription Crisis of 1944), gave the King | 13,514 |
621251 | 1945 Canadian federal election | https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=1945%20Canadian%20federal%20election | 1945 Canadian federal election
government an effective working majority in parliament. Most of the Independent Liberal MPs joined (or re-joined) the Liberal caucus following World War II when the conscription issue became moot. As King was defeated in his own riding of Prince Albert, fellow Liberal William MacDiarmid, who was re-elected in the safe seat of Glengarry, resigned so that a by-election could be held, which was subsequently won by King.
The federal election was the first since the victory of the Co-operative Commonwealth Federation in the Saskatchewan provincial election, and many predicted a major breakthrough for the CCF nationally. A Gallup poll from September 1943 showed the CCF with a one-point lead over | 13,515 |
621251 | 1945 Canadian federal election | https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=1945%20Canadian%20federal%20election | 1945 Canadian federal election
both the Liberals and Conservatives. The party was expected to win 70 to 100 seats, possibly even enough to form a minority government. Despite the expectations, the party only won 28 seats.
1945 was also the first test of the newly named Progressive Conservatives. The Conservative Party had changed its name in 1942 when former Progressive Party Premier of Manitoba John Bracken became its leader. The party improved its standing in terms of number of seats compared to the old Conservative Party, but also recorded a reduced share of the popular vote (indeed, the lowest in any election prior to 1993) and fell far short of challenging Liberal hegemony. Operation Downfall, the invasion of Japan, | 13,516 |
621251 | 1945 Canadian federal election | https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=1945%20Canadian%20federal%20election | 1945 Canadian federal election
was scheduled for late 1945-early 1946. Bracken had promised conscription for the invasion of Japan whereas King had promised to commit one division of volunteers to the planned invasion of Japan. Based on the way that the Japanese had fought the battles of Iwo Jima and Okinawa it was widely expected that the invasion of the Japanese home islands would be a bloody campaign, and Bracken's promise of conscription for the planned invasion of Japan did much to turn voters against his party.
A key issue in this election seems to have been electing a stable government. The Liberals urged voters to "Return the Mackenzie King Government", and argued that only the Liberal Party had a "preponderance | 13,517 |
621251 | 1945 Canadian federal election | https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=1945%20Canadian%20federal%20election | 1945 Canadian federal election
of members in all nine provinces". Mackenzie King threatened to call a new election if he was not given a majority: "We would have confusion to deal with at a time when the world will be in a very disturbed situation. The war in Europe is over, but unrest in the east is not over."
The Progressive Conservatives tried to capitalize on the massive mid-campaign victory by the Ontario Progressive Conservative Party in the 1945 Ontario provincial election. PC campaign ads exhorted voters to rally behind their party: "Ontario shows! Only Bracken can win!", and suggesting that it would be impossible to form a majority government in the country without a plurality of seats in Ontario, which only the | 13,518 |
621251 | 1945 Canadian federal election | https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=1945%20Canadian%20federal%20election | 1945 Canadian federal election
Tories could win. In the event, the Liberals fell just short of a majority even though they won only 34 seats in Ontario to the PCs' 48 seats. Eight "Independent Liberal" MPs could be expected to support the government.
Social welfare programs were also an issue in the campaign. Another Liberal slogan encouraged voters to "Build a New Social Order" by endorsing the Liberal platform, which included
- $750 million to provide land, jobs and business support for veterans;
- $400 million of public spending to build housing;
- $250 million for family allowances;
- establishing an Industrial development Bank;
- loans to farmers, floor prices for agricultural products;
- tax reductions.

621251 | 1945 Canadian federal election | https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=1945%20Canadian%20federal%20election | 1945 Canadian federal election
under the slogan, "Work, Security, and Freedom for All -- with the CCF", the CCF promised to retain war-time taxes on high incomes and excess profits in order to fund social services, and to abolish the Senate of Canada. The CCF fought hard to prevent the support of labour from going to the Labor-Progressive Party (i.e., the Communist Party of Canada).
The LPP, for its part, pointed out that the CCF's refusal to enter into an electoral pact with the LPP had cost the CCF 100,000 votes in the Ontario election, and had given victory to the Ontario PCs. It urged voters to "Make Labour a Partner in Government."

Transformational Christianity
Transformational Christianity, or Transformationalism, represents a fusion of evangelicalism, Pentecostalism, and ecumenism that started becoming prominent in the early 21st century. Unlike previous movements, it is typically embodied in regional "meta-church" organizations—alliances of churches from different denominational backgrounds—rather than particular churches, , or parachurch organizations. Critics of Transformationalism accuse it of over-realised eschatology, false dichotomies, unnecessary idealism and a tendency to be corrosive of individual church identities.
# Radical middle.
Transformational Christianity interprets the gospel from a unified perspective | 13,523 |
621244 | Transformational Christianity | https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Transformational%20Christianity | Transformational Christianity
of transforming individuals, relationships, and institutions. It thus tends to align intellectually with evangelicals, emotionally with charismatics, and socially with ecumenicals—though only up to a point. The emphasis is less on being theologically or politically correct than on being effective in transforming the believer and the world around. It thus tends to reflect the kingdom theology of Gordon Fee's radical middle approach to Christianity, which characterizes the role of the church as manifesting God's kingdom on Earth.
# Defining beliefs.
Ed Silvoso identifies "Five Pivotal Paradigms" he considers essential for sustainable transformation to take place. Specifically, he calls people | 13,524 |
621244 | Transformational Christianity | https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Transformational%20Christianity | Transformational Christianity
to recognize that:
- The Great Commission is about discipling nations, not just people.
- The marketplace (the heart of the nation) has already been redeemed by Jesus and now needs to be reclaimed by His followers.
- Labor is the premier expression of worship on Earth, and every believer is a minister.
- Our primary call is not to build the Church, but to take the kingdom of God where the kingdom of darkness is still entrenched, in order for Jesus to build His Church.
- The premier social indicator that transformation has taken place is the elimination of "systemic" poverty.
# Marketplace ministers.
One defining aspect of transformationalism is its focus on what are called "marketplace | 13,525 |
621244 | Transformational Christianity | https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Transformational%20Christianity | Transformational Christianity
ministers". In this context, as in many Christian circles, the term 'marketplace' is used to represent business, education, and government—i.e., everything outside the church and family. The heroes of most other movements are celebrated for their church-related activities (e.g., evangelists, missionaries, bishops, apostles, etc.). In contrast, the heroes of transformationalism are lionized for their work outside the church. Importantly, they are expected to deliver "secular" success (new business, increased profits or efficiency, improved workplace conditions) as a precondition to "spiritual" success (conversions, transformed lifestyles, formal acknowledgement of Christianity, etc.). They are | 13,526 |
621244 | Transformational Christianity | https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Transformational%20Christianity | Transformational Christianity
not valued just for making money, or even just for bringing people into the church; rather, they are seen as the primary carriers for bringing the "kingdom of God" or "presence of Jesus Christ" into the world.
In one sense, this is a return to the ideals of the Protestant reformation, with its emphasis on the "priesthood of all believers" and the value of secular work. The key difference is that transformationalism is set in the context of a post-Christian culture, where personal evangelism is both possible and (in this view) necessary. Thus, secular work is also viewed as a platform for evangelization. At the same time, transformationalists would also affirm—and celebrate—the intrinsic value | 13,527 |
621244 | Transformational Christianity | https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Transformational%20Christianity | Transformational Christianity
of work, both as an aspect of worship and as a service to society.
# Regional pastoring.
A related innovation is the concept of citywide pastoring. The key premise is that in addition to the concepts of one "church universal" and many "local congregations," which most Christians accept, there is also a third level: "the church in the city". The idea is that all the congregations in a particular region, of whatever denomination, are really aspects of a single church family, and should actively think, plan, and work together under that common framework. This doesn't mean that a single unifying structure is imposed from above, as in the old establishment idea of parishes. Rather, it involves | 13,528 |
621244 | Transformational Christianity | https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Transformational%20Christianity | Transformational Christianity
formalizing the existing networks of relationship and trust into a coherent organizational structure, usually involving councils of recognized leaders from different communities. This typically means the church as a whole develops a common vision, which is implemented by individual congregations with minimal explicit coordination. It also enables the Christian community to speak with one voice when dealing with local government; however, the focus is usually on finding ways to cooperate in serving the community, rather than dictating policy.
# History.
The concept of transformation was initiated as a result of claims regarding an apparent series of citywide revivals which took place in several | 13,529 |
621244 | Transformational Christianity | https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Transformational%20Christianity | Transformational Christianity
South American locations in the 1990s. These claims were widely promoted in videos produced by George Otis, Jr. under the title, "Transformations" (2000) and "Transformations II" (2002). They are still being sold from Otis' Sentinel Group website for $19.99 each on DVD. These films claim drug arrests (see Cali Cartel) were connected to revival in the Colombian city as well as purported reports of giant vegetables grown in Guatemala, community transformation in the Canadian Arctic, Ugandan revival and dramatic increases in church attendance. Jack Dennison also wrote a book, "City Reaching." This provided further impetus with the fundamentalist Christian world to Otis' teaching in both city reaching | 13,530 |
621244 | Transformational Christianity | https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Transformational%20Christianity | Transformational Christianity
and marketplace ministry techniques. Argentinian evangelist Ed Silvoso popularized the latter approach in his book "Anointed for Business", which introduced the term Marketplace Transformation. This combined with the concept of "community transformation" to develop a more general focus on transformation.
The term 'Transformationalism' was apparently first used in conjunction with groups such as Pray the Bay in early 2004, reflecting a more general view of transformation as a key (if not defining) attribute of the Christian life. This coincided with a possibly unrelated increase in the use of the term 'transformation' by a wide range of different churches and organizations during 2004.
Transformation | 13,531 |
621244 | Transformational Christianity | https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Transformational%20Christianity | Transformational Christianity
conferences in 2005 (Indonesia) and 2007 (Seoul, Korea) focused on five "streams": saturation church planting; revival; reaching cities; marketplace ministry and economic development for the poor. The goal was, among other things, to develop a transformational covenant, to provide further definition to this movement.
The claims made by Otis in the "Transformations" videos have been unable to be verified when investigated by neutral researchers, journalists and his critics. His concept has strong influences from the New Apostolic Reformation and utilized strategic level spiritual warfare as a key strategy. The "Transformations" videos circulated widely through Pentecostal, charismatic and similar | 13,532 |
621244 | Transformational Christianity | https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Transformational%20Christianity | Transformational Christianity
spirit-filled Christian churches all over the world. Copies of the videos (and later DVDs) and other associated books and commercial merchandise generated huge personal and corporate profits for various Christian leaders and religious organizations through on-selling in churches. The videos had a significant impact in the conservative Australian city of Toowoomba, where large numbers of fundamentalist and Pentecostal Christians became convinced of the power of strategic level spiritual warfare to bring about a revival and transformation there. Astonishing claims were made, sometimes through so-called prophecies, that this action would lead to Toowoomba becoming a hub for the anticipated great | 13,533 |
621244 | Transformational Christianity | https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Transformational%20Christianity | Transformational Christianity
Australian revival, as well as the achievement of reduced sinfulness, a lower crime rate, general prosperity among the population, greatly increased church attendance, the installation of men and women of God into government and a reduced commitment to cults. These predictions failed to materialize (and in fact the there is strong evidence the opposite has occurred), and have provided further evidence for critics of the ease with which the spirit-filled Christian community can become prone to fads and cleverly packaged marketing, similar to what occurred in churches through the Y2K panic and the Prayer of Jabez.
# Comparisons.
Transformationalism can be considered a more secular version of | 13,534 |
621244 | Transformational Christianity | https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Transformational%20Christianity | Transformational Christianity
the Manifest Sons of God doctrine that emerged from the Latter Rain Movement. It is also similar to the revivalism of traditional Evangelicalism. However, by shifting the focus from individual conversion to large-scale transformation, it adopts an approach not unlike the social gospel that characterized the progressive or liberal Evangelicalism of the pre-war period (this is in contrast to the more confrontational approach of fundamentalism). Unlike the Christian Right, transformationalists emphasize that the way to achieve a renewed society is through personal testimony and servant-leadership towards those in power, rather than political maneuvering. This places it near to "progressive evangelicalism." | 13,535 |
621244 | Transformational Christianity | https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Transformational%20Christianity | Transformational Christianity
Some aspects are reminiscent of the Dutch Neo-Calvinists, Abraham Kuyper and Herman Dooyeweerd, especially talk of "filling up the spheres of society."
Transformational groups typically involve a cross-section of Protestant, Roman Catholic, Orthodox, and non-denominational churches and parachurch organizations (though not borderline groups, such as Mormons). Most still tend to have an evangelical, or even fundamentalist, statement of faith; however, they are generally more concerned with being inclusive than exclusive, and often will attempt to accommodate individuals and churches with more liberal theological views if they share a compatible vision of the goals and means of transformation. | 13,536 |
621244 | Transformational Christianity | https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Transformational%20Christianity | Transformational Christianity
Transformational movements are often mediated by other trans-denominational initiatives such as the Alpha Course or Promise Keepers, which share a similar heritage and goals.
Transformational Christianity is one attempt to aid evangelicals in what Christianity Today calls "a paradigm shift—in their understanding of conversion and redemption".

Population of Canada
Canada ranks 38th by population, comprising about 0.5% of the world's total, with over 37 million Canadians as of 2019. Despite being the second largest country by area, the vast majority of the country is sparsely inhabited, with most of its population south of the 55th parallel north and more than half of Canadians live in just two provinces: Ontario and Quebec. Though Canada's population density is low, many regions in the south such as the Quebec City–Windsor Corridor, have population densities higher than several European countries. Canada's largest population centres are Toronto, Montreal, Vancouver, Calgary, Edmonton and Ottawa with those six being the only ones with | 13,545 |
621228 | Population of Canada | https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Population%20of%20Canada | Population of Canada
more than one million people. The large size of Canada's north which is not arable, and thus cannot support large human populations, significantly lowers the country's carrying capacity. Therefore, the population density of the habitable land in Canada can be modest to high depending on the region.
The historical growth of Canada's population is complex and has been influenced in many different ways, such as indigenous populations, expansion of territory, and human migration. Being a new world country, immigration has been, and remains, the most important factor in Canada's population growth. The 2016 Canadian census counted a total population of 35,151,728, an increase of around 5.0 percent | 13,546 |
621228 | Population of Canada | https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Population%20of%20Canada | Population of Canada
over the 2011 figure. Between 1990 and 2008, the population increased by 5.6 million, equivalent to 20.4 percent overall growth.
# Historical population overview.
## Indigenous peoples.
Scholars vary on the estimated size of the indigenous population in what is now Canada prior to colonization and on the effects of European contact. During the late 15th century is estimated to have been between 200,000 and two million, with a figure of 500,000 currently accepted by Canada's Royal Commission on Aboriginal Health. Although not without conflict, European Canadians' early interactions with First Nations and Inuit populations were relatively peaceful. However repeated outbreaks of European infectious | 13,547 |
621228 | Population of Canada | https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Population%20of%20Canada | Population of Canada
diseases such as influenza, measles and smallpox (to which they had no natural immunity), combined with other effects of European contact, resulted in a twenty-five percent to eighty percent indigenous population decrease post-contact. Roland G Robertson suggests that during the late 1630s, smallpox killed over half of the Wyandot (Huron), who controlled most of the early North American fur trade in the area of New France. In 1871 there was an enumeration of the indigenous population within the limits of Canada at the time, showing a total of only 102,358 individuals. According to the 2011 Canadian Census, indigenous peoples (First Nations – 851,560, Inuit – 59,445 and Métis – 451,795) numbered | 13,548 |
621228 | Population of Canada | https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Population%20of%20Canada | Population of Canada
at 1,400,685, or 4.3% of the country's total population.
## New France.
The European population grew slowly under French rule, thus remained relatively low as growth was largely achieved through natural births, rather than by immigration. Most of the French were farmers, and the rate of natural increase among the settlers themselves was very high. The women had about 30 per cent more children than comparable women who remained in France. Yves Landry says, "Canadians had an exceptional diet for their time." The 1666 census of New France was the first census conducted in North America. It was organized by Jean Talon, the first Intendant of New France, between 1665 and 1666. According to Talon's | 13,549 |
621228 | Population of Canada | https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Population%20of%20Canada | Population of Canada
census there were 3,215 people in New France, comprising 538 separate families. The census showed a great difference in the number of men at 2,034 versus 1,181 women. By the early 1700s the New France settlers were well established along the Saint Lawrence River and Acadian Peninsula with a population around 15,000 to 16,000. Mainly due to natural increase and modest immigration from Northwest France (Brittany, Normandy, Île-de-France, Poitou-Charentes and Pays de la Loire) the population of New France increased to 55,000 according to the last French census of 1754. This was an increase from 42,701 in 1730.
## British Canada.
During the late 18th and early 19th century Canada under British | 13,550 |
621228 | Population of Canada | https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Population%20of%20Canada | Population of Canada
rule experienced strong population growth. In the wake of the 1775 invasion of Canada by the newly formed Continental Army during the American Revolutionary War, approximately 60,000 of the 80,000 Americans loyal to the Crown, designated later as United Empire Loyalists fled to British North America, a large portion of whom migrated to Nova Scotia and New Brunswick (separated from Nova Scotia) in 1784. Although the exact numbers cannot be certain because of unregistered migration At least went to 20,000 to Nova Scotia, 14,000 to New Brunswick; 1,500 to PEI and 6,000 to Ontario(13,000 including 5,000 blacks went to England and 5,500 to the Caribbean). For the rest of the 1780s additional immigrants | 13,551 |
621228 | Population of Canada | https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Population%20of%20Canada | Population of Canada
arrived from the south. From 1791 An additional 30,000 Americans, called "Late Loyalists," were lured into Ontario in the 1790s by the promise of land and swearing loyalty to the Crown. As a result of the period known as the Great Migration by 1831, Lower Canada's population had reached approximately 553,000, with Upper Canada reaching about 237,000 individuals. The Irish Potato Famine of the 1840s had significantly increased the pace of Irish immigration to Prince Edward Island and the Province of Canada, peaking in 1847 with 100,000 distressed individuals. By 1851, the population of the Maritime colonies also reached roughly 533,000 (277,000 in Nova Scotia, 194,000 in New Brunswick and 62,000 | 13,552 |
621228 | Population of Canada | https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Population%20of%20Canada | Population of Canada
in Prince Edward Island). To the west British Columbia had about 55,000 individuals by 1851. Beginning in the late 1850s, the immigration of Chinese into the Colony of Vancouver Island and Colony of British Columbia peaked with the onset of the Fraser Canyon Gold Rush. By 1861, as a result of natural births and the Great Migration of Canada from the British Isles, the Province of Canada population increased to 3.1 million inhabitants. Newfoundland's population by 1861 reached approximately 125,000 individuals.
## Post-confederation.
The population has increased every year since the establishment of the Dominion of Canada in 1867; however, the population of Newfoundland was not included prior | 13,553 |
621228 | Population of Canada | https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Population%20of%20Canada | Population of Canada
to its entry into confederation as Canada's tenth province in 1949. The first national census of the country was taken in 1871, with a population count around 3,689,000. The year with the least population growth (in real terms) was 1882–1883, when only 30,000 new individuals were enumerated.
The 1911 census was a detailed enumeration of the population showing a count of 7,206,643 individuals. This was an increase of 34% over the 1901 census of 5,371,315. The year with the most population growth was during the peak of the Post-World War II baby boom in 1956–1957, when the population grew by over 529,000, in a single twelve-month period. The Canadian baby boom, defined as the period from 1947 | 13,554 |
621228 | Population of Canada | https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Population%20of%20Canada | Population of Canada
to 1966, saw more than 400,000 babies born annually. The 1996 census recorded a total population of 28,846,761. This was a 5.7% increase over the 1991 census of 27,296,859. The 2001 census had a total population count of 30,007,094. In contrast, the official Statistics Canada population estimate for 2001 was 31,021,300.
Canada's total population enumerated by the 2006 census was 31,612,897. This count was lower than the official 1 July 2006 population estimate of 32,623,490 people. Ninety-percent of the population growth between 2001 and 2006 was concentrated in the main metropolitan areas. The 2011 census was the fifteenth decennial census with a total population count of 33,476,688 up 5.9% | 13,555 |
621228 | Population of Canada | https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Population%20of%20Canada | Population of Canada
from 2006. On average, censuses have been taken every five years since 1905. Censuses are required to be taken at least every ten years as mandated in section 8 of the Constitution Act, 1867.
# Components of population growth.
In 2010, Canada's annual population growth rate was 1.238%, or a daily increase of 1,137 individuals. Between 1867 and 2009 Canada's population grew by 979%. Canada had the highest net migration rate (0.61%) of all G-8 member countries between 1994 and 2004. Natural growth accounts for an annual increase of 137,626 persons, at a yearly rate of 0.413%. Between 2001 and 2006, there were 1,446,080 immigrants and 237,418 emigrants, resulting in a net migration of just over | 13,556 |
621228 | Population of Canada | https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Population%20of%20Canada | Population of Canada
1.2 million people. Since 2001, immigration has ranged between 221,352 and 262,236 immigrants per annum.

621235 | Jon Faddis | https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Jon%20Faddis | Jon Faddis
series at the Pritzker Pavilion in Millennium Park), while concurrently leading the Jon Faddis Jazz Orchestra of New York (the successor to the Carnegie Hall Jazz Band).
As of May 2010, Faddis leads the JFJONY, while continuing also to lead the Jon Faddis Quartet and the JFQ+2. The JFJONY headlined The Kennedy Center's New Year's Eve performance in December 2010 (available as a podcast on NPR's JazzSet); the JFJONY has also performed at the Kimmel Center in Philadelphia, the Performing Arts Center in Westchester, New York, the Newport Jazz Festival and other venues.

In 1999, Faddis released the Grammy-nominated "Remembrances" (Chesky Records), which was composed almost entirely of ballads and featured work from Argentinian composer/arranger Carlos Franzetti.
In 1997, Faddis composed the jazz opera "Lulu Noire", which was presented at USA in Charleston, South Carolina, as well as at the American Music Theater Festival in Philadelphia.
Faddis appeared in the 1998 movie "Blues Brothers 2000". In the film, he plays trumpet with The Louisiana Gator Boys. Faddis is also a noted educator for jazz and the trumpet.

Minister of Innovation, Science and Economic Development
The Minister of Innovation, Science and Economic Development () is the Minister of the Crown in the Canadian Cabinet who is responsible for overseeing the federal government's economic development and corporate affairs department, Innovation, Science and Economic Development Canada. The Minister of Innovation, Science and Economic Development is also the minister responsible for Statistics Canada. By convention, the Minister of Innovation, Science and Economic Development also serves as the Registrar General of Canada.

of overseeing corporate affairs, by virtue of its function in registering all letters patent. From Confederation to 1966, the Secretary of State for Canada was the Registrar General. Between 1966 and 1995, the office was held by the Minister of Consumer and Corporate Affairs.
The economic development function of the portfolio can be traced from the office of Minister of Trade and Commerce, which was created in 1892. The post of Minister of Industry briefly existed between 1963 and 1969 as a successor to the post of Minister of Defence Production. It was merged with the Trade and Commerce portfolio in 1969. The post of Minister of Industry, Trade and Commerce existed between 1969 and 1983. During | 13,573 |

that time, a separate post of Minister of Regional Economic Expansion (1969 to 1983)/Minister of Regional Industrial Expansion (1983-1990) also existed. In 1990, the post of Minister of Industry, Science and Technology was created.
From 1993 to 1995, a single minister was styled as Minister of Industry while concurrently holding the posts of Industry, Science and Technology, and of Consumer and Corporate Affairs, pending a government restructuring. The post of Minister of Industry was formally created in 1995. The office was renamed to its current name in the 29th Canadian Ministry.

621267 | Gluteus maximus | https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Gluteus%20maximus | Gluteus maximus
Gluteus maximus
The gluteus maximus (also known collectively with the gluteus medius and minimus, as the gluteal muscles, and sometimes referred to informally as the "glutes") is the main extensor muscle of the hip. It is the largest and most superficial of the three gluteal muscles and makes up a large portion of the shape and appearance of each side of the hips. Its thick fleshy mass, in a quadrilateral shape, forms the prominence of the buttocks.
Its large size is one of the most characteristic features of the muscular system in humans, connected as it is with the power of maintaining the trunk in the erect posture. Other primates have much flatter hips and can not sustain standing erectly.
The | 13,576 |
621267 | Gluteus maximus | https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Gluteus%20maximus | Gluteus maximus
muscle is remarkably coarse in function and structure, being made up of muscle fascicles lying parallel with one another, and collected together into larger bundles separated by fibrous septa.
# Structure.
It arises from the posterior gluteal line of the inner upper ilium, a pelvic bone, and roughly the portion of the bone including the crest of the ilium (the hip bone), immediately above and behind it; and from the posterior surface of the lower part of the sacrum, the base of the spine, and the side of the coccyx, the tailbone; from the aponeurosis of the erector spinae (lumbodorsal fascia), the sacrotuberous ligament, and the fascia covering the gluteus medius (gluteal aponeurosis).
The | 13,577 |
621267 | Gluteus maximus | https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Gluteus%20maximus | Gluteus maximus
fibers are directed obliquely downward and lateralward;
The gluteus maximus has two insertions:
- those forming the upper and larger portion of the muscle, together with the superficial fibers of the lower portion, end in a thick tendinous lamina, which passes across the greater trochanter, and inserts into the iliotibial band of the fascia lata;
- the deeper fibers of the lower portion of the muscle are inserted into the gluteal tuberosity between the vastus lateralis and adductor magnus.
## Bursae.
Three bursae are usually found in relation with the deep surface of this muscle:
- One of these, of large size, separates it from the greater trochanter;
- a second, (often missing), is situated | 13,578 |
621267 | Gluteus maximus | https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Gluteus%20maximus | Gluteus maximus
on the tuberosity of the ischium;
- a third is found between the tendon of the muscle and that of the vastus lateralis.
# Function.
When the gluteus maximus takes its fixed point from the pelvis, it extends the acetabulofemoral joint and brings the bent thigh into a line with the body.
Taking its fixed point from below, it acts upon the pelvis, supporting it and the trunk upon the head of the femur; this is particularly obvious in standing on one leg.
Its most powerful action is to cause the body to regain the erect position after stooping, by drawing the pelvis backward, being assisted in this action by the biceps femoris (long head), semitendinosus, semimembranosus, and adductor magnus.
The | 13,579 |
621267 | Gluteus maximus | https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Gluteus%20maximus | Gluteus maximus
gluteus maximus is a tensor of the fascia lata, and by its connection with the iliotibial band steadies the femur on the articular surfaces of the tibia during standing, when the extensor muscles are relaxed.
The lower part of the muscle also acts as an adductor and external rotator of the limb. The upper fibers act as abductors of the hip joints.
# Society and culture.
## Training.
The gluteus maximus is involved in a number of sports, from running to weight-lifting. A number of exercises focus on the gluteus maximus as well as other muscles of the upper leg.
- Hip thrusts
- Glute bridge
- Quadruped hip extensions
- Kettlebell swings
- Squats and variations like split squats, pistol | 13,580 |
621267 | Gluteus maximus | https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Gluteus%20maximus | Gluteus maximus
squats and wide-stance lunges
- Deadlift (and variations)
- Reverse hyperextension
- Four-way hip extensions
- Glute-ham raise
# Injury analysis.
Functional assessment can be useful in assessing injuries to the gluteus maximus and surrounding muscles. These tests include:
- 30 Second Chair to Stand test
This test measures a participant's ability to stand up from a seated position as many times as possible in a thirty-second period of time. Testing the number of times a person can stand up in a thirty-second period helps assess strength, flexibility, pain, and endurance, which can help determine how far along a person is in rehabilitation, or how much work is still to be done.
- Passive | 13,581 |
621267 | Gluteus maximus | https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Gluteus%20maximus | Gluteus maximus
piriformis stretch.
The piriformis test measures flexibility of the gluteus maximus. This requires a trained professional and is based on the angle of external and internal rotation in relation to normal range of motion without injury or impingement.
# Evolution.
In other primates, gluteus maximus consists of ischiofemoralis, a small muscle that corresponds to the human gluteus maximus and originates from the ilium and the sacroiliac ligament, and gluteus maximus proprius, a large muscle that extends from the ischial tuberosity to a relatively more distant insertion on the femur. In adapting to bipedal gait, reorganization of the attachment of the muscle as well as the moment arm was required.

PGA Tour Lawsuit.
In 2004, Morris unsuccessfully brought suit against PGA Tour, alleging that PGA Tour violated section 2 of the Sherman Act, codified at 15 U.S.C. § 2, by monopolizing the markets for (1) the publication of compiled real-time golf scores on the Internet, and (2) the sale, or syndication of those scores. In addition, Morris alleged that PGA Tour further violated section 2 of the Sherman Act by refusing to deal with Morris. The district court granted summary judgment in favor of PGA Tour because it found, "inter alia", that PGA Tour had a valid business justification for its actions.
# Challenges.
With the decline of the newspaper industry, Morris Communications has been cutting | 13,589 |
621285 | Morris Communications | https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Morris%20Communications | Morris Communications
employee wages since 2009 to prevent further layoffs.
In 2010, Morris Publishing Group filed a pre-packaged Chapter 11 bankruptcy reorganization with $415 million in debt.
On May 18, 2015, Morris announced that it has sold its 36 radio stations to Alpha Media. The deal was finalized and Alpha Media took control of the Morris radio stations on September 1 that year.
On October 14, 2015, it was revealed that Morris Communications Company VP of audience sent a company-wide email to maintain specific editorial positions to make a political point. This has put the organization into question relating to its ethics. Further issues arose with Morris Communications' failure to respond for comment.

Henri René Guieu
Henri René Guieu (19 March 1926 – 2 January 2000) was a French science fiction writer and ufologist, who published primarily with the pseudonym Jimmy Guieu. He occasionally used other pseudonyms as well, including "Claude Vauzière" for a young adult series, "Jimmy G. Quint" (with Georges Pierquin) for a number of espionage novels, "Claude Rostaing" for two detective novels and "Dominique Verseau" for six erotic novels.
# Overview.
Guieu was one of the authors published by Fleuve Noir company's "Anticipation" science fiction imprint.
His first novel, "Le Pionnier de l'Atome" [The Pioneer of the Atom] (1952), concerned a journey into the microcosmos through psychic powers. | 13,595 |
621279 | Henri René Guieu | https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Henri%20René%20Guieu | Henri René Guieu
With his second novel, "Au-delà de l'Infini" [Beyond Infinity] (1952), Guieu introduced the character of American biologist "Jerry Barclay" and reversed the theme. This time, it was our universe that was a microcosmos contained within the knee of a beautiful woman from a macrocosmos.
Guieu continued the "Jerry Barclay" series for three more books.
With "La Dimension X" [Dimension X] (1953) and "Nous les Martiens" [We The Martians] (1954), Guieu introduced a new hero: archeologist "Jean Kariven". In the "Kariven" series, Guieu began to explore his favorite themes such as UFOs, close encounters, Erich Von Däniken-like theories of ancient astronauts, secret societies, lost civilizations and occult | 13,596 |
621279 | Henri René Guieu | https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Henri%20René%20Guieu | Henri René Guieu
conspiracies. Throughout his novels he featured footnotes claiming that the various facts upon which he was basing his tales were indeed "authentic". In "Nous les Martiens" [We The Martians], Kariven discovers that, during the remote past, men had emigrated to Earth from Mars. Eight more Kariven novels were published subsequently, often pitting good aliens from Polaris versus evil aliens from Deneb with Earth secretly caught in the middle. "Univers Parallèles" [Parallel Universes] featured a crossover with Jerry Barclay.
Guieu continued to exploit his UFO and occult theme with increasing success. After the "Kariven" series, he published a number of novels unrelated to each other, except for | 13,597 |
621279 | Henri René Guieu | https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Henri%20René%20Guieu | Henri René Guieu
two that featured a team of American investigative reporters, "Ericksson and Wendell": "Les Monstres du Néant" [The Monsters From The Void] (1956) and "Les Êtres de Feu" [The Beings of Fire] (1956).
He also wrote two non-fiction books about UFOs, one of the very first published into the story of ufology, "Les Soucoupes Volantes viennent d'un Autre Monde" [The Flying Saucers Come From Another World] and "Black-Out sur les Soucoupes Volantes" [Black-Out on the Flying Saucers], the latter prefaced by Jean Cocteau, and by the 1970s, had become a major French ufologist.
Simultaneously, Guieu began to chronicle the exploits of two daring space traders, Blade and Baker. The series began with "Les | 13,598 |
621279 | Henri René Guieu | https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Henri%20René%20Guieu | Henri René Guieu
Forbans de l'Espace" [The Space Pirates] (1963).
During 1967, with "Le Retour des Dieux" [The Return of the Gods], Guieu revamped the Kariven character into that of journalist Gilles Novak who, with the help of his girl-friend Régine Véran, and various friends and allies, often real-life friends of Guieu or thinly-disguised real-life figures, fought against would-be tyrants, communists, terrorists, drug cartels and various alien menaces. Novak was helped in his struggles by Michael Merkavim, the commander of a new, powerful Order of Knights Templar, equipped with futuristic weapons and based in a parallel universe. Merkavim was introduced in "Les Sept Sceaux du Cosmos" [The Seven Seals of the | 13,599 |
