Whereas the Ministers of the Environment and of Health have assessed information in respect of the substance Propane, 1,1,1,3,3-pentafluoro-, Chemical Abstracts Service No. 460-73-1,

Whereas the substance is not on the Domestic Substances List,

And whereas the Ministers suspect that a significant new activity in relation to the substance may result in the substance becoming toxic according to the Canadian Environmental Protection Act, 1999,

Therefore the Minister of the Environment indicates, pursuant to section 85 of that Act, that subsection 81(4) of the same Act applies with respect to the substance.

A significant new activity involving the substance is any new activity other than using it for replacing chlorofluorocarbons or hydrochlorofluorocarbons in foam blowing applications, refrigeration and solvents.

A person that proposes a significant new activity set out in this notice for this substance shall provide to the Minister of the Environment, at least 90 days prior to the commencement of the proposed significant new activity, the following information:

EXPLANATORY NOTE

(This explanatory note is not part of the Significant New Activity Notice.)

A Significant New Activity Notice (SNAc Notice) is a legal document pursuant to subsection 81(4) of the Canadian Environmental Protection Act, 1999 (CEPA 1999) issued by the Minister, that lists the activities for a given substance in Canada for which there has been no finding of toxicity under the CEPA 1999. The SNAc Notice sets out the appropriate information that must be sent to the Minister for assessment prior to the commencement of a new activity as described in the SNAc Notice.

Substances that are not listed on the Domestic Substances List can only be imported or manufactured by the person who has met the requirements under sections 81 or 106 of the CEPA 1999. Under section 86 of the CEPA 1999, in circumstances where a SNAc Notice is issued for a new substance, it is the responsibility of every person who transfers the physical possession or control of the substance to notify all persons to whom the possession or control is transferred of the obligation to comply with the SNAc Notice and of the obligation to notify any new activity and all other information as described in the SNAc Notice. It is the responsibility of the users of the substance to be aware of and comply with the SNAc Notice and to submit a SNAc notification to the Minister prior to the commencement of a significant new activity associated with the substance.

A SNAc Notice does not constitute an endorsement from Environment Canada of the substance to which it relates, nor an exemption from any other laws or regulations that are in force in Canada and that may apply to the substance or activities involving the substance.

NOTICE OF VACANCY

NATURAL SCIENCES AND ENGINEERING RESEARCH COUNCIL OF CANADA

President (full-time position)

The Natural Sciences and Engineering Research Council (NSERC) is the national instrument for making strategic investments in Canada's capability in science and technology, helping to make Canada a country of discoverers and innovators for the benefit of all Canadians. NSERC achieves this by investing in people, discovery and innovation through programs that support university research in the natural sciences and engineering on the basis of national competitions.

NSERC invests in people by supporting more than 20 000 university students and postdoctoral fellows in their advanced studies. It promotes discovery by funding more than 10 000 university professors every year and helps make innovation happen by encouraging more than 500 Canadian companies to invest in university research. In 2004-2005, NSERC invested $850 million in university-based research and training in all the natural sciences and engineering.

NSERC is governed by a Council of 22 members selected from the private and public sectors, and universities. The President of NSERC is the chief executive officer of an organization with more than 300 employees in Ottawa and a developing network of small regional offices across Canada. The President chairs the meetings of the Council and its executive committee as well as the steering committee for the Networks of Centres of Excellence (NCE) Program.

Location: National Capital Region

The successful candidate must have a doctorate from a recognized university in one of the fields served by NSERC. The preferred candidate must have extensive experience in research management, in academia, government or industry with a strong record of scholarly achievements and stature and credibility in the science and technology community. Extensive executive-level management experience involving the development and implementation of strategic initiatives is required, ideally within a large and diversified private or public sector organization. Experience gained within the university sector would be an asset. The candidate must demonstrate experience in developing and maintaining successful relationships and partnerships at the national or international levels.

The qualified candidate must have knowledge of the mandate, objectives and mission of the NSERC, knowledge of the academic community, its strengths and the challenges it faces. The candidate must understand the Government of Canada and its institutions and processes, especially as they relate to the development of research, science and technology policies and objectives. The successful candidate will have a good understanding of the federal government's economic policy agenda and Canada's capacity to generate and apply new knowledge and translate scientific ideas and new technologies into commercially and socially valuable products and services. The candidate must have good knowledge of key public and private sector organizations, and the nature of their scientific, research and development, and technological requirements to provide direction on NSERC's strategic alliances and partnerships.

The ideal candidate must be a strong visionary and innovative leader with sound judgement, integrity, impartiality and superior interpersonal and communication skills. In addition, the candidate must be able to establish an effective relationship with the Minister of Industry, Parliament and others, including the media, other government representatives, the research community, the private sector and the public.

Proficiency in both official languages is preferred. The government is committed to ensuring that its appointments are representative of Canada's regions and official languages, as well as of women, Aboriginal peoples, disabled persons and visible minorities.

The successful candidate must be prepared to relocate to the National Capital Region or to a location within reasonable commuting distance, and must be willing to travel extensively within Canada and overseas.

The selected candidates will be subject to the Conflict of Interest and Post-Employment Code for Public Office Holders. Before or upon assuming official duties and responsibilities, public office holders appointed on a full-time basis must sign a document certifying that, as a condition of holding office, they will observe the Code. They must also submit to the Office of the Ethics Commissioner, within 60 days of appointment, a Confidential Report in which they disclose all of their assets, liabilities and outside activities. To obtain copies of the Code and of the Confidential Report, visit the Office of the Ethics Commissioner's Web site at http://parl.gc.ca/oec-bce/site/pages/ethics-e.htm.

This notice has been placed in the Canada Gazette to assist the Governor in Council in identifying qualified candidates for this position. It is not, however, intended to be the sole means of recruitment. Applications forwarded through the Internet will not be considered for reasons of confidentiality.

Interested candidates should forward their curriculum vitae by June 24, 2005, in strict confidence, to the Deputy Chief of Staff (Parliamentary Affairs and Appointments), Prime Minister's Office, Langevin Block, 80 Wellington Street, Ottawa, Ontario K1A 0A2, (613) 957-5743 (facsimile).

Additional information is available upon request.

Bilingual notices of vacancies will be produced in alternative format (audio cassette, diskette, braille, large print, etc.) upon request.

NOTICE OF VACANCY

SOCIAL SCIENCES AND HUMANITIES RESEARCH COUNCIL OF CANADA

President (full-time position)

The Social Sciences and Humanities Research Council (SSHRC) was established in 1978 to promote and assist research in the social sciences and humanities. SSHRC grants and fellowships programs allow researchers to explore, invent and develop deep expertise in a wide variety of disciplines, as well as to target research to specific social needs. SSHRC programs also provide support for research training and research communication activities. SSHRC administers the Canada Research Chairs Program. With a budget of $900 million over five years, the program aims to establish 2 000 research chairs at universities across the country.

SSHRC partners with a variety of government, business and non-profit organizations to develop and fund strategic research programs. These joint initiatives build knowledge and expertise on key social, cultural and economic issues.

The President of SSHRC is the chief executive officer and chairs the meetings of the Council and its executive committee and has supervision over and direction of the work and staff of the Council. In addition to the President, the Council has up to 21 other members, representing the academic community and other stakeholder groups.

Location: National Capital Region

The successful candidate must have a doctorate from a recognized university in one of the fields served by SSHRC. The preferred candidate must have extensive experience in research management, in academia, government or the private sector, with a strong record of scholarly achievements, and stature and credibility in the social sciences and humanities research community. Extensive executive-level management experience involving the development and implementation of strategic initiatives is required, ideally within a large, diversified, private or public sector organization. Experience gained within the university sector would be an asset. The chosen candidate will have experience in change management and in moving and transforming an organization, its mandate and service philosophy. The candidate must demonstrate experience in developing and maintaining successful relationships and partnerships at the national or international levels.

The qualified candidate must have knowledge of the mandate, objectives and mission of the SSHRC, knowledge of the academic community, its strengths and the challenges it faces. The candidate must understand the Government of Canada, its institutions and processes, especially as they relate to the development of research and science policies and objectives.

The ideal candidate must be a strong visionary and innovative leader with sound judgement, integrity, impartiality and superior interpersonal and communication skills. In addition, the candidate must be able to establish an effective relationship with the Minister of Industry, Parliament and others, including the media, other government representatives, the research community, the private sector and the public.

Proficiency in both official languages is preferred. The government is committed to ensuring that its appointments are representative of Canada's regions and official languages, as well as of women, Aboriginal peoples, disabled persons and visible minorities.

The successful candidate must be prepared to relocate to the National Capital Region or to a location within reasonable commuting distance, and must be willing to travel extensively within Canada and overseas.

The selected candidates will be subject to the Conflict of Interest and Post-Employment Code for Public Office Holders.
