Reserved Seats for Students in various Health Care Fields

An important opportunity available for Nova Scotia students who are interested in pharmacy or medicine and would like to do their studies in French.

Each year, there are three reserved seats in medicine and two seats in pharmacy at universities in Quebec specifically for Nova Scotia students who are interested in studying in French. These places are subsidized by the CNFS (Consortium National de Formation en Santé) by the fact that the internships are covered so that they can return to their home province and region to do their clinical internships. There are also benefits to identify as francophone student from outside of Quebec when applying to other health programs. 

Students who are at Université Ste-Anne and Moncton are well aware of these seats and have taken advantage in the past. Students, who have chosen to go to Anglophone universities, may not be aware of these opportunities. Deadlines for submitting applications under this agreement are in early January, and I would like to ask you your help. Please speak to or pass on the word about these opportunities to students who you know might be interested in furthering their studies in health professions.

There is a lot of competition for these areas of study and the small number of francophone Nova Scotians who apply under this agreement can be beneficial.  Please convey my message if you think of someone. All applications must be submitted through me.

Merci!

Physical Activity Strategic Plan

In 2010, the Municipality of Argyle was given the opportunity to introduce the Municipal Physical Activity Leadership Program (MPAL) into their organization. The program highlights the fact that there are benefits in health, social, economic and environmental associated with increasing physical activity levels in communities. MPAL recognizes that half of our population is sedentary and that our youth are becoming less active. The government of Nova Scotia has set a goal of increasing the number of Nova Scotians active enough for health benefits by ten percent by 2010. This program is intended to support the important role played by municipalities in providing opportunities for physical activity, through the provision of qualified leadership at the municipal level. This job entails the preparation and implementation of a strategic physical activity plan.

Ipsos Reid Survey

The 2010 Ipsos Reid survey reached out to the residents of Argyle to ask them specific questions on their current levels of physical activity, their satisfaction with the recreation department, amongst other important information that is helpful with the creation of a physical activity strategy. The survey reached its goal of 300 replies.
