Thematic Section: Papers from the Excellence Network of Island Territories (Reti) meetings, Orkney, Scotland, June 2015
This guest editorial introduces the thematic section of papers, earlier drafts of which had been presented at the RETI meetings held at Orkney College, University of the Highlands and Islands, Scotland, in June 2015
Immigrants' perceptions of quality of life in three second‐ or third‐tier Canadian cities
Key Messages The majority of immigrants in Canada live in the country's largest cities; however, many immigrants are choosing to reside in smaller centres, suggesting the need for further research regarding the immigrant experience in second‐ and third‐tier Canadian cities. This study found that immigrants have lower perceptions of quality of life than Canadian‐born individuals, a finding that echoes research in first‐tier cities. Issues of emplo…
Immigrants, islandness and perceptions of quality-of-life on Prince Edward Island, Canada
This paper explores perceptions of immigrant quality-of-life (QOL) and islandness in Charlottetown, Prince Edward Island, Canada, and compares these perceptions to those of Canadian-born residents of the same provincial capital. The study employed a mixedmethods approach, including a household telephone survey conducted in the summer of 2012 (n=302), focus group interviews with immigrants in late 2012 and observations on preliminary results by th…
Volunteerism and residential longevity in Saskatoon, Saskatchewan, Canada
Changes in quality of life perceptions in Saskatoon, Saskatchewan: Comparing Survey Results From 2001 and 2004
Mobility, Perceptions of Quality of Life and Neighbourhood Stability in Saskatoon

Knowledge translation strategies in a community-university partnership: Examining local Quality of Life (QoL)
A gender analysis of quality of life in Saskatoon, Saskatchewan
Establishing and sustaining community–university partnerships: A case study of quality of life research
Community is a key construct in population health research and a major locus of health determinants study. In recent years in Canada, a new emphasis on such research has emerged in the form of community–university partnerships, supported by several of the major research granting agencies. The authors regard such partnerships as a special case of participatory action research (PAR), albeit one where greater emphasis is placed on the institutional …
Indicators of community economic development through mural‐based tourism
Community Economic Development (CED) has become a recognised form of economic development, despite contention regarding its definition and applications. It is acknowledged that development planning benefits from a more holistic approach with a focus on community participation. The objective of this paper was to explore the process and selected indicators of CED success through an examination of five Saskatchewan communities that have made the con…
Quality of Life in Saskatoon 1991 and 1996: A Geographical Perspective
Interest in the concept of "quality of life" (QOL) has increased exponentially in many areas of public policy. A constant theme in QOL research in the last 30 years has been a focus on the measurement and the types of indicators utilized. The objective of this paper is to identify the structure, spatial variation, and change in quality of life from 1991 to 1996 within Saskatoon, Saskatchewan by using a range of indicators relating to the social a…
Communities on the Edge: An Economic Geography of Resource‐dependent Communities in Canada
Our impressions of Canadian resource‐dependent communities are often still influenced by the classic works of Innis, Robinson, Lucas, Siemens, and others. Although this research has proven to be valuable, it has also established several generalizations regarding these settings, including the perceptions that community labour forces and economic structures are relatively homogenous, that nonresource sectors play an insignificant role in the commun…
A Gender-Sensitive Urban Factorial Ecology Male, Female, Grouped, and Gendered Social Spaces in Saskatoon
Significant social, demographic, and economic changes related to gender have occurred within North American cities in the past generation. It is hypothesized that these changes may have led to the emergence of distinct male and female social spaces that have not been fully accommodated within the classical urban factorial ecologies. This paper compares and analyzes four gender-specific data bases (male-oriented, female-oriented, grouped, and gend…
