	Housing and Housing Policy
		The early 1980s saw a reduced demand for housing as a result of the economic recession and the fact that most of the postwar BABY BOOM had already entered the housing market (eg, only 184,600 units were built in 1986).
		During the 1970s, government programs assisted 40% of all housing completions; changing funding priorities resulted in a reduction in housing assistance in the mid-1980s.
		During the 1970s the federal government continued to assist the private housing market by insuring mortgages and by providing direct loans in smaller communities that were otherwise not well served by private lenders.

	Carbonaceous Aerosols and Climate Change: How Researchers Proved Black Carbon is a Significant Force in the Atmosphere
		Once reliable measuring devices were available to detect BC and sampling and analysis techniques permitted scientists to measure the chemical content of atmospheric particles, it became possible to determine how widely BC particles were spreading across the globe from their origins in cities and industrial areas.
		During the late 1970s and early 1980s Novakov, Rosen, other members of their group, and investigators elsewhere sampled the Arctic atmosphere to determine whether BC particles could be found in what was thought to be a pristine environment.
		Finding BC particles, which are anthropogenic (produced by human activity, i.e., the incomplete combustion of fossil fuels), in the Arctic signified that human activities were having an effect in the farthest reaches of the globe.

	BC Hydro's Amazingly Bad Deal for Ratepayers :: Views :: thetyee.ca
		The core of that policy was laid out in the 2002 Energy Plan, which prevents B.C. Hydro from building new generation assets, and transforms the Crown corporation from a generator of publicly-owned electricity to a purchaser of energy from the private sector.
		During B.C. Hydro's Integrated Electricity Planning process, the Crown utility estimated the cost of energy from Site C (if it were built by B.C. Hydro) could be as low as $42 per MWh.
		Alternatively, if B.C. Hydro were to build the same kind of small B.C. Hydro projects it is now purchasing much of its private energy from, it would benefit from lower borrowing costs and significant economies based on avoiding the expensive duplication inherent in projects built by numerous private developers.

		Thus, if the security police unlocked the secrets of BC by breaking the bodies of fls, the more courtly judge did his bit for apartheid justice by unlocking the recesses of the BC mind.
		Lobban's central claim, therefore, is that the trials of the 1970s signified that the state and fl civil society were locked in a battle over the dissemination of ideologies.
		Because matters of actual transgressions and evidence receded into the background, courtroom explanations of BC ideology were filtered through and assessed in light of the presiding judge's personal predilections and "fundamental assumptions" about the world.

		Beginning in the late 1970s, changes in economic policy, including decentralization of control and the creation of special economic zones to attract foreign investment, led to considerable industrial growth, especially in light industries that produce consumer goods.
		During the succeeding, often turbulent, Chou dynasty (c.1027–256 BC), Confucius, Lao Tzu, and Mencius lived, and the literature that until recently formed the basis of Chinese education was written.
		In the late 1960s and early 1970s the emphasis of China's foreign policy changed from revolutionary to diplomatic; new contacts were established, and efforts were made to improve relations with many governments.

	Floodgap Roadgap -- US 395 Epilogue: BC 395 (Site not responding. Last check: )
		The modern highway seems to date from the 1970s; it is not known if BC 395 was actually signed BC 395 between these two periods.
		Nevertheless, BC 395 is the only place where we will truly find the "END" (capital letters intentional) of either US 395 or BC 395, so for the sake of completeness, we shall follow where it leads.
		BC 3/AB 3 was first established by merger of the then-"Red Route" (AB 3) and portions of the "Black Route" (specifically BC A) in 1932, although it appears to have remained signed in British Columbia as lettered route BC A as late as 1938-9.

	BC Fishing
		Research is beginning to show that for some fisheries this is having a detrimental impact on smaller, resource-dependent communities, as licenses and quota are moving towards urban centres and corporations with the capital to invest in the industry.
		Due to their limited supply and high demand, the cost of fishing licenses and quota is high, creating an incentive for smaller operators to cash out and larger operations to concentrate their holdings.
		Although many fisheries programs and judicial decisions illustrate that the federal government values the rights and heritage of native Canadians, as population and pressure increases in coastal areas, maintaining meaningful access to and ensuring the health of marine resources continues to be a major endeavour for many native bands.

		The atmospheric gas constituents, water, oxygen and ozone, were the molecular targets, and the ocean surface became the principal terrain target for the measurement of wind speed and direction at the surface.
		In the companion slide presentation, I have selected three sensor developments during the 1970s and late 1980s that are characteristic of activities underway at that time.

		The Romans followed in the second century BC and laid the groundwork for Spain's present language, religion, and laws.
		Despite the success of economic liberalization, Spain remained the most closed economy in western Europe--judged by the small measure of foreign trade to economic activity--and the pace of reform slackened during the 1960s as the state remained committed to "guiding" the economy.
		Nevertheless, in the 1960s and 1970s, Spain was transformed into a modern industrial economy with a thriving tourism sector.
