We start from the premise that Canada is facing the deepest crisis in recent memory. The Truth and Reconciliation Commission has acknowledged shocking details about the violence of Canadaâs near past. Deepening poverty and inequality are a scar on the countryâs present.And Canadaâs record on climate change is a crime against humanityâs future.echnological breakthroughs have brought this dream within reach. The latest research shows it is feasible for Canada to get 100% of its electricity from renewable resources within two decades; by 2050 we could have a 100% clean economy. We demand that this shift begin now.
What is brain health? The brain is a remarkably flexible organ. If multiple sclerosis (MS) disease activity damages tissue in one area, other areas can work harder to compensate.1,2 This extra capacity is known as âneurological reserveâ, or âbrain healthâ, and explains why disease activity may go undetected during the early phase oÂ­f MS.
Human Brain Anatomy. The human brain is the powerhouse and control center for all physiological and cognitive functions. The brain controls lower, unconscious physiological activities such as breathing, pulse, and digestion; and higher, conscious activities such as thinking, reasoning, and feeling.The human brain is unique because it contains billions of neurological connections that work together to carry out complex functions.he brainstem is connected to the spinal cord at the back of the brain. The brainstem controls unconscious functions such as respiration, digestion, and pulse. Three structures comprise the brainstem: the midbrain, the pons, and the medulla oblongata. The midbrain controls eye movement and focus.
