The Morrin Centre’s Picture This is a photography project in three parts.
With the help of professional photographer Jacques Gaines, the Morrin Centre offers a series of five photography workshops. Each workshop, held on a Tuesday evening, will present a different aspect of photography, from framing to photo-editing.
For this workshop:
Do you have old photos full of history? You know, the ones in black and white from your parents’ or grandparents’ era, tucked away in a box up in the attic? Then please come and share your photos and their stories with us during our memory sharing meetings!We are looking particularly for photos featuring the English-speaking community of Quebec and the Morrin Centre. They could eventually be featured in a temporary exhibit presented at the Morrin Centre later this year. You are invited to send digitized copies prior to the meetings. We are also able to digitize them for you as needed.To learn more, visit the event webpage or contact our Heritage Coordinator at anthonyarata@morrin.org.If you have pictures you would like to share but none of the meetings scheduled suit you, please email our Heritage Coordinator and send him your pictures anyway!

Treating different forms of addiction – My job as a Social Worker in a therapy center
Myriam Paquin, Psychosocial intervention worker
Abstract : After obtaining a certificate in Psychology and graduating with a bachelor’s degree in Social work at Université Laval, Myriam started working at Centre CASA, a therapy center dedicated to helping adults (men and women) living with addiction problems (alcohol, drugs, medication, gambling, cyberaddiction, etc.). She has also recently joined the intervention team dealing more specifically with people who wear or have worn a uniform (military, police, correctional officers, etc.) and simultaneously suffer from a post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) and addiction problems. In this presentation, she will talk about her reality as a social worker working with a voluntary clientele struggling with addiction and the different challenges that these people and those around them might face. She will also be able to address any questions related to addiction, as it is a problem that affects many people in the population, whether it be directly or indirectly.
The education system in Quebec is unique in many ways. Language laws dictate who is eligible to attend school in English and who is not. Parents and newcomers may find it hard to navigate the school system. The session “School Registration and the English School System in Quebec” will feature a panel of professionals from Central Quebec School Board to help answer your questions.
This online event is for you, if you’ve ever wondered:
- Is my child eligible to attend school in English?
- When and how do we register for Kindergarten, elementary school and high school?
- What school(s) can my kids attend based on where I live? If I am willing to drive my kids to school can they attend a school in another sector of town?
- What are the options in terms of preschool, Pre-K, programme passe-partout, and before- and after-school daycare and how do we access them? What are the related costs? And what services are offered in each program?
- Grade names here differ from those elsewhere. What is meant by cycle 1 and 2 and sec. 1, 2, etc. ?
- Is it true parents of elementary students are often required to pay for noon-time surveillance if their children eat lunch at school? If so, how does that work and what does it cost?
- Why do we have to purchase so many supplies each fall for kids attending public school. Doesn’t the school board provide these supplies? Who will give me the list of what materials my child needs and when?
- I live on the south shore; when will there be an English elementary school on my side of the St-Lawrence?
- What is all the fuss about school boards being replaced by service centres? What impact will this have on my child’s education and our local English-speaking community?
- Québec schools seem to put a lot of emphasis on provincial exams; at what grade do these exams start? How does QCSB compare to other local boards in terms of exam results?
- What is the difference between Québec’s adult education and DEP programs and CEGEP? Can we access these programs in English in Québec City? How do we apply? What programs are available and are there any fees for them?

CANADIAN PACIFIC AND THE GOLDEN AGE OF TRAVEL
The story of Canadian Pacific is one of the greatest stories in the world. Straddling the continent for more than a century and globe for more than fifty years, Canadian Pacific is inextricably linked with the history of Canada itself.
In 1885, the company completed the construction of two thousand miles of railway system and linking the Atlantic to the Pacific. It then established fleets of vessels on both the Pacific and Atlantic oceans, laying the foundation for a transportation route that allowed members of the British Empire to travel around the world. To enhance the travel experience, the company also constructed great castle-like hotels, including the Algonquin in St. Andrews, the Chateau Frontenac in Quebec City, and the Banff Springs Hotel in the Rockies, which themselves became landmarks.
With a 40 minute illustrated presentation, author and lecturer, Barry Lane will relate this special history, and then go on to talk about his experiences as a cruise ship lecturer and leader of Trans-Canada rail trip journeys. (He has lectured on at least 200 different cruises in Canada, the US, and the Caribbean, and been leader/lecturer of 15 rail trips across Canada, all of which stayed in CP’s great railway hotels. He will give you some travel trips for your future travels.
As a door prize to the talk, Barry will also offer a copy of his “sumptuously illustrated,” 2015 book, “Canadian Pacific and the Golden Age of Travel

Title: The role of advanced robotics in studying the Arctic under-ice light field
Zoom link: https://ulaval.zoom.us/j/66544948499?pwd=aTRKejBsVnVGdDUvK0doemUzOWZwZz09
The Arctic Ocean has been the epicentre of climate change with a much faster warming rate compared to the globe. This warming causes the sea ice cover to shrink rapidly with a large impact on all levels of the Arctic marine food web, from polar bears to microscopic algae. Oceanographic studies of the changes in this remote and hard-to-access region are often limited to small areas and/or short time periods, which hampers predictions about the future of the sea ice ecosystem. This talk will provide insights on how recent advancements in underwater robotics help to extend the knowledge about the development of phytoplankton blooms throughout the year. Together, we will look at how optical and biological data are collected by remotely operated and autonomous platforms over larger spatial and temporal scales to better understand the marine ecosystem in Baffin Bay.
Lisa Matthes: After graduating with a master’s degree in Marine Biology from the University of Rostock in Germany and a PhD degree in Arctic Research at the University of Manitoba, Lisa Matthes joined the Takuvik International Research Laboratory as postdoctoral fellow in April 2021. Her research work focuses on light availability in the marine ecosystem and how it controls the magnitude and timing of Arctic primary production. She is specifically interested in how a sea ice cover impacts light propagation in the underlying water column and how it affects phytoplankton throughout the Arctic growth season. To find answers to these questions, she deploys optical sensor packages in combination with advanced underwater robotics and collects water samples for many biological parameters during field expeditions in the Arctic and sub-Arctic Ocean.

FACILITATO
This lecture discusses the art of five 19th Century female painters who worked during the Impressionist period, mainly in France. This artistic style focused on capturing an informal effect or “impression” of a subject, rather than a studied and formal representation. At the time, it was heavily criticized by the artistic establishment, who felt it was a rejection of true art. Today, Impressionist painting is hugely popular and the works of Monet, Sisley, Renoir and Manet, among others, command high prices. As is often the case, the women artists who worked at that time are much less known and valued. This lecture describes their struggle for recognition and demonstrates why they should not be forgotten.
This is a hybrid event, our presenter will be joining us via Zoom, however members are welcome to attend in person in the Lifelong Learning room at EQLC.
