The current iteration of transfers, specifically the 2014 implementation of equal-per-capita funding through the Canada Health Transfer, poses major problems to regional disparities, and arguably favours provinces that have high growth; this leaves poorer provinces, like the Maritimes, to make major cuts to provincial budgets in order to maintain the standards set out in the Canada Health Act. This paper explores the history of transfers, why transfers are necessary for Canadians, as well as the criticisms of the current system. Following this, it is recommended that a needs-based model for determining health transfers be adopted; specifically, the model developed by Marchildon and Mou that accounts for an aging population as well as one that is geographically dispersed. This paper provides a more contemporary analysis on federal transfers as they relate to the health care system. Additionally, it focuses somewhat on the issues New Brunswick is facing currently as, among other things, a result of inadequate funding from the federal government.","PeriodicalId":338098,"journal":{"name":"Health Tomorrow: Interdisciplinarity and Internationality","volume":"84 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2015-12-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"126203506","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

With an estimated 5.7 million HIV-positive persons in South Africa, it is pertinent to develop and sustain a multi-sector strategy for combating the HIV/AIDS epidemic which acknowledges poverty, denialism, stigma, and discrimination as social drivers, acting as deterrents towards treatment and awareness campaigns. These societal drivers are compounded by structural drivers which perpetuate vulnerability to HIV/AIDS. Intersectional stigma and discrimination act as barriers to effective treatment and prevention combination strategies which seek to decrease prevalence, especially amongst the most at risk populations (MARPs): Black women and youth, the LGBTQ community, intravenous drug users, the prison population, orphans, and sex workers (UNAIDS, 2011a; UNAIDS, 2014). These drivers not only perpetuate myths and misconceptions, but directly impact behaviour and decision-making capabilities. Black women and youth in urban and rural areas in South Africa represent one of the MARPs whose prevalence continues to increase, while other vulnerable groups prevalence has decreased or remains stagnant (UNAIDS, 2014). It is imperative to utilize the theory of intersectionality to better comprehend the relationship between poverty, denialism, stigma, and discrimination and its impact on the HIV/AIDS epidemic in South Africa.","PeriodicalId":338098,"journal":{"name":"Health Tomorrow: Interdisciplinarity and Internationality","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2015-04-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130110129","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The devaluation of female protagonists, women-centric media and bodily emotions form two similarly themed films into separate and distinct realm of artworks. Each film takes up specific gendered mental illnesses – Susanna is diagnosed with Borderline Personality Disorder, seven times more likely in women than men, and McMurphy with Anti-Social Personality Disorder, three times more likely in men than women. Both diagnoses use gendered rhetoric to categorize the individual’s affects. The diagnoses are done through the DSM, the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, a tool for categorization and pathologization of behaviours which dichotomizes “normal” and “healthy” to “crazy” and “ill”. The films portray the naturalizing discourses used to create, diagnose and disseminate these illnesses. Avoiding Freudian psychoanalysis and opting for a feminist affect theory based approach, this paper will examine the construction and propagation of the normal/ill dichotomy, as well as how those narratives flow into other aspects of society such as the Men’s Rights Movement and New Age women’s body and health.","PeriodicalId":338098,"journal":{"name":"Health Tomorrow: Interdisciplinarity and Internationality","volume":"47 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2015-04-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122830141","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The researchers’ underlying understanding of disability is that it is socially constructed and that people with disabilities experience social exclusion. We used a directed content analysis method to analyze 21 websites that met our inclusion criteria based on our indicators of accessibility and relevance and for their key messages. We found that the messaging across all sites was highly consistent: sex-positive, gay-positive, and non-judgmental about youth sexual expression. However, none of the prevention information specifically considered mobility, verbal and cognitive disability, participation and information barriers faced by youth with disabilities, or their heightened sexual vulnerability. Only one site depicted disability in images and none depicted disability and sexuality. There is a clear need to better understand the sexual health information needs of youth with disabilities and to develop safe sex information that is relevant and accessible to them.","PeriodicalId":338098,"journal":{"name":"Health Tomorrow: Interdisciplinarity and Internationality","volume":"20 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2013-09-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127794134","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
