The project consists of seeking urban ecosystem synergies between existing industry, green infrastructures, industrial heritage, and community needs for the LaSalle/Ville Saint-Pierre/Lachine East sector, located around the Lachine Canal in Montreal. The overall objective is to design a pilot or demonstration project supported by life cycle analysis, and based on the themes of circular economy; industrial partnerships; creation of mixed, safe, and affordable neighbourhoods; and analysis of the urban ecosystem and of the evolution of the built environment. The project aims to address the climate issues and to make the sector more resilient. It provides different scenarios to transform the sector, inspired by circular economy principles for the built heritage, the food system, green infrastructures, and active transportation. Links between the different industries are simulated to analyze the viability of an industrial symbiosis in the LaSalle sector.
Keywords: Patrimoine industriel, Industrial heritage, quartier, neighbourhoods, infrastructures écosystémiques, eco-systemic infrastructures, synergies, resilience, circular economy, résilience, économie circulaire

ABSTRACTBorrowing the unpaved ways of interdisciplinary we will here try to show, relying upon reflections on the relations between the body, signs and power, how the traditional and binary opposition of materialism and idealism can be overcome. It is hoped that the approach will jointly be a contribution to a theory of thought and of socio-cultural representations and a critique of the concept of power, restated with the assistance of socio-psychoanalysis. The notions of liberation and of creation, with those of submission and alienation, are here recaptured in connection with the socio-cultural conditions of access to language {parole) and to individual as well as group and collective identity.

For historic reasons — legal traditions, language issues and lawyers' inhibitions — there has never been an authoritative, monolingual French legal dictionary in Canada. Since the publication in 1985 of the first edition of the Dictionnaire de droit privé by the Quebec Research Centre on Private and Comparative Law, this gap is now being filled. The interdisciplinary team engaged in this far-reaching lexicographic project is comprised of both legal and linguistic experts. Problems arising from the interaction of the French and English legal traditions in Canada are discussed. This paper outlines the principles and methods involved, derived primarily from a Canadian-based jurilinguistics, and the uses to which they are put.

The principles derived from the new approach to public management (effectiveness, efficiency, transparency, responsibility and accountability) are often used to review the operation of public organizations in a more up-to-date way. Their integration into public law reflects a transformation of the social and political context that goes beyond the boundaries of the field of management itself. The public justice system, which organizes and manages the courts, is influenced in various ways by this trend, and by the principle themselves. This paper looks at the progress made by the idea of effectiveness in procedural law, and as part of the new approach to justice management. Although effectiveness is not mentioned as such in the judicial law, it appears as a structuring element in contemporary reviews of the justice system, in the same way as accessibility. Effectiveness applies directly to courts and tribunals in the sense that they are organizations responsible for providing the public service of justice. Its emergence has led to the affirmation of other principles, chief among which is accountability. Far from being in conflict with the traditional principle of an independent justice system, accountability in fact opens up new avenues for demonstrating its legitimacy.
