Postal Code Conversion File Plus [Canada], Version 5D, September 2008, Census of Canada 2006
No full textThe PCCF+ is a SAS© control program and set of associated datasets derived from the PCCF, a 2006 postal codeOM population weight file, the Geographic Attribute File, Health Region boundary files, and other supplementary data. PCCF+ automatically assigns a range of Statistics Canada standard geographic areas and other geographic identifiers based on postal codesOM.
PCCF+ differs from the PCCF in that it:
Uses population-weighted random allocation for many postal codesOM that link to more than one geographic area.
Options are available for institutional postal codesOM.
Procedures are included to link partial postal codesOM to geographic identifiers where possible.
Problem records and diagnostics are provided in the program output, along with reference information for possible solutions.
The geographic coordinates, which represent the standard geostatistical areas linked to each postal codesOM on the PCCF, are commonly used to map the distribution of data for spatial analysis (e.g., clients, activities). In April 1983, the Geography Division released the first version of the PCCF, which linked postal codes to 1981 census geographic areas and included geographic coordinates. PCCF+ was first created using the 1986 census and has been updated regularly with population weight files calculated for each census from 1991 through 2006.
The purpose of the PCCF+ is to provide a link between six-character postal codesOM produced by the Canada Post Corporation (CPC), standard 2006 Census geographic areas (such as dissemination areas, census subdivisions, and census tracts) produced by Statistics Canada, and supplementary administrative areas and neighbourhood income quintiles. Postal codesOM do not respect census geographic boundaries and so may be linked to more than one standard geographic area, or assigned to more than one set of coordinates. Therefore, one postal codeOM may be represented by more than one record. The PCCF product, produced by Statistics Canada, provides links between postal codes and all recorded matches to census geography. PCCF+ uses the PCCF but provides additional functionality in that it uses a population-weighted matching process for some residential postal codesOM where more than one geographic code is possible. PCCF+ also provides routines for institutional postal codesOM and for historic postal codesOM. The purpose of this product is not to validate postal codesOM or the PCCF.</p

Cryptic population structure in sandhill cranes (Antigone canadensis) of the Pacific Flyway
No full textAbstractPopulation segregation catalyzes genetic differentiation and can lead to speciation. Population genetic structure is also critically important for population management, especially in species characterized by small, isolated populations. Sandhill Crane (Antigone canadensis) populations of the Pacific Flyway are made up of breeding populations nesting west of the Rocky Mountains, and isolated by intermediate mountain ranges. Current management policy in British Columbia treats all Sandhill Cranes as a single population, whereas in the western United States subpopulations are subject to population specific management. Here, we analyze microsatellite markers, mitochondrial DNA sequences, and mitochondrial haplogroups, derived from 203 individual Sandhill Cranes to elucidate population genetic structure of cranes migrating along the Pacific Flyway to summer breeding habitat on the North and Central Coast of British Columbia and southeast Alaska. STRUCTURE, AMOVA, FST, DAPC, and phylogenetic analyses reveal that geographically separated crane populations along the west coast of North America show substantial genetic differentiation in the Pacific Flyway. These findings are consistent with behavioural and ecological evidence - divergent diets, flyways and breeding habitats. We conclude that the relatively small coastal Sandhill Crane populations deserve special management consideration to safeguard their genetic diversity and adaptations, and to mitigate deleterious impacts of current and future climate change scenarios.</p
Fichier de conversion des codes postaux plus [Canada], version 4H, mars 2006, Recensement de 2001
No full textLe FCCP+ est constitué d’un programme de contrôle SAS©, ainsi que de multiples ensembles de données connexes dérivés du FCCP, d’un fichier de la pondération de la population par codes postauxMO de 2001, du Fichier des attributs géographiques, des fichiers des limites des régions sociosanitaires et d’autres données. Le FCCP+ attribue automatiquement un ensemble de régions géographiques normalisées de Statistique Canada et d’autres identificateurs géographiques en fonction des codes postauxMO
Il se distingue du FCCP du fait que :
Il utilise une répartition aléatoire pondérée en fonction de la population pour les codes postauxMO appariés à plus d’une région géographique.
Des options sont disponibles pour les codes postauxMO institutionnels.
Ce guide comprend également des procédures permettant d’apparier des codes postauxMO partiels à des identificateurs géographiques, dans la mesure du possible
Les enregistrements problématiques et des diagnostics sont également fournis avec de l’information de référence sur les solutions possibles.
Les coordonnées géographiques, qui représentent les régions géostatistiques normalisées appariées à chaque code postalMO dans le FCCP, sont généralement utilisées pour cartographier la distribution des données aux fins de l’analyse spatiale (p. ex. les clients, les activités).
C’est en avril 1983 que la Division de la géographie a diffusé une première version du FCCP, qui établissait un lien entre les codes postaux et les unités géographiques du Recensement de 1981 et qui comprenait des coordonnées géographiques. Le FCCP+ a été créé pour la première fois à partir des données du Recensement de 1986 et a été mis à jour régulièrement au moyen de fichiers de poids de population calculés pour chaque recensement, de 1991 à la fin de 2001.
Le but du FCCP+ est d’établir un lien entre les codes postauxMO à six caractères produits par la Société canadienne des postes (SCP), les régions géographiques normalisées du Recensement de 2001 (p. ex. les aires de diffusion, les subdivisions de recensement, les secteurs de recensement), les unités administratives supplémentaires, les terciles d’immigrants et les quintiles de revenu. Les codes postauxMO ne suivent pas les limites géographiques du recensement et peuvent donc être appariés à plus d’une région géographique normalisée ou attribués à plus d’un ensemble de coordonnées. Il se peut donc qu’un code postalMO puisse être représenté par plus d’un enregistrement. Le FCCP que propose Statistique Canada fournit des liens entre les codes postaux et toutes les correspondances aux niveaux géographiques du recensement. Le FCCP+ se distingue du FCCP du fait qu’il utilise un processus d’appariement pondéré en fonction de la population pour certains codes postauxMO résidentiels qui pourrait correspondre à plus d’un code géographique. Le FCCP+ fournit en outre des routines pour les codes postauxMO institutionnels et les codes postauxMO historiques. Ce produit n’a pas pour objet de valider des codes postauxMO ou le FCCP.</p
Postal Code Federal Riding File [Canada], February 2021, Census of Canada 2016
No full textThe Postal Codes by Federal Ridings File (PCFRF) is a digital file which provides a link between the six- character postal code and Canada’s federal electoral districts (which are also known as federal ridings).
Elections Canada defines a federal electoral district (FED) as any place or territorial area entitled to return a Member of Parliament (MP) to serve in the House of Commons. Federal electoral district legal limits and descriptions are the responsibility of the Chief Electoral Officer, and are usually revised every ten years after the results of the decennial census. There are 338 FEDs in the 2013 Representation Order, the most recent revision of the federal electoral districts limits.
Some postal codes straddle one or more FED boundaries. The ‘unique link’ variable indicates if the postal code is linked to one or more FEDs. Users often link the postal code in their data set to the FED in the PCFRF. When performing this link, users should be aware that the postal code in their data set may represent a mailing address used by a person, not necessarily where the person actually resides. Similarly, a postal code in a business-based mailing address may not necessarily indicate where the business activity took place.
The reference date for postal codes contained in the PCFRF is the same date as the postal codes contained in the Postal Code Conversion File (PCCF) product released concurrently with this version of the PCFRF</p

Performance indicators for manual therapy skills required of chiropractic students at the start of their senior internship: a modified Delphi study
No full textThis dataset presents information related to a modified Delphi study conducted to identify key performance indicators in chiropractic education. The goal of the study was to reach expert consensus on which clinical behaviors junior interns should demonstrate before entering their senior internship. Experts were recruited from four stakeholder groups: students, recent graduates, faculty members, and clinical supervisors. An initial list of 124 performance indicators was refined through three rounds of online surveys conducted between June and November 2023. Experts rated each indicator, provided qualitative feedback, and helped prioritize educational strategies. Between 26 and 30 participants completed each round. The final dataset includes: (1) the initial and final lists of performance indicators; (2) expert ratings and comments for each round; (3) the subset of indicators that reached consensus as critical priorities for curriculum development. The data are both qualitative and quantitative in nature, and provide a foundation for improving student readiness, clinical competence, and patient safety in chiropractic education.//
Ce jeu de données présente les informations liées à une étude Delphi modifiée visant à identifier les principaux indicateurs de performance en formation chiropratique. L’objectif de l’étude était d’obtenir un consensus d’experts sur les comportements cliniques que les stagiaires juniors doivent démontrer avant d’entreprendre leur internat senior. Des experts issus de quatre groupes de parties prenantes ont été recrutés : étudiants, diplômés récents, membres du corps professoral et superviseurs cliniques. Une liste initiale de 124 indicateurs de performance a été raffinée au cours de trois rondes de sondages en ligne menées entre juin et novembre 2023. Les experts ont évalué chaque indicateur, formulé des commentaires qualitatifs et identifié des priorités pour orienter les stratégies pédagogiques. Entre 26 et 30 participants ont complété chaque ronde. Le jeu de données final comprend : (1) les listes initiale et finale des indicateurs de performance ; (2) les évaluations et commentaires des experts pour chaque ronde ; (3) le sous-ensemble d’indicateurs ayant atteint un consensus comme priorités critiques pour le développement curriculaire. Les données recueillies sont de nature à la fois qualitative et quantitative, et constituent une base pour améliorer la préparation des étudiants, la compétence clinique et la sécurité des patients en formation chiropratique. //
