Dr. W.N. Hardy is a brilliant experimental Physicist whose contributions to Solid State Physics have received world wide recognition. He was awarded an Alfred P. Sloan Fellowship in 1972-74, the C.A.P. Herzberg Medal in 1978, Steacie Prize, also in 1978, the Canada Council Senior Killam Fellowship 1984-86, the Killam Research Prize 1986-88, the BC Science Council Gold Medal, 1989, the CAP Medal of Achievement, 1993, the CAP Brockhouse Medal, 1999 and the Canada Council Killam Prize 1999. Dr. Hardy's careful and innovative work on the properties of solid hydrogen represents a fundamental contribution to Physics and to Chemistry. He has made many contributions to the study of cryogenic atomic hydrogen, including the development of a cryogenic hydrogen maser. Since 1989 he has worked exclusively on high temperature superconductivity and made important contributions to the question of the ground state of the cuprate superconductors. Dr. Hardy has a deep feeling for logic and elegance in experimental design. He transmits this feeling not only to his students, but also to his colleagues and to their students.

Harris, Richard - Geography - McMaster University Richard Harris is one of North America’s leading scholars in urban history. He has written, especially, about suburbanisation residential development and housing policy in both the developed and the developing worlds. ------------------ Harris, Richard - Geography - McMaster University Richard Harris is one of North America’s leading scholars in social and urban history. His acclaimed book Unplanned Suburbs (1996) and later writings, with their focus on working-class suburbs and the role of the self-built houses, have influenced research on suburbanization throughout this continent. He has also published on a range of issues having to do with residential development and housing policy, as they relate to both developed and developing economies. He skillfully blends the approach of the historian with the analysis of the social scientist, and his judgments and perspectives are valued and respected widely.

LONG William E. Harris, a Professor in the Department of Physics and Astronomy at McMaster University, is the world’s leading expert in the study of globular star clusters in galaxies. His extensive investigations of the properties of individual globular clusters in our galaxy such as their ages, luminosities, metallicities, and their systemization in a web-based catalogue are among the most exacting and widely used studies in the field. Among the implications of these results for galaxy formation is the fact that metal-poor globular clusters formed at the same time throughout the entire halo of the galaxy. He developed methods at the world’s best telescopes for using globular cluster systems to accurately measure the cosmological distance scale. His vigorous exploration of globular cluster systems in a host of different types of galaxies has opened up an entire field of extragalactic research. This work is having a growing impact on our understanding of stellar populations and galaxy formation. SHORT William E. Harris is the world’s leading expert in the study of globular star clusters in galaxies. His vigorous exploration of globular cluster systems in a host of different types of galaxies has opened up an entire field of extra galactic research, with significant impact on our understanding of stellar populations and galaxy formation in the early universe.

LONG Jed Harrison has been described as a pioneer in the miniaturization of instrumentation for chemical and biochemical analysis. His lab-on-a-chip concept, developed in 1990, has excited the interest of researchers and industry worldwide. The importance and sophistication of the technology is illustrated in the landmark paper in the journal Science in 1993 titled "Micromachining a Miniaturized Capillary Electrophoresis-Based Chemical Analysis System on a Chip". His work has spawned a new sub-discipline of analytical chemistry called micro total analysis systems ( -TAS) and a new generation of companies worldwide. The journal Analytical Chemistry cited Dr. Harrison's research as one of the "Great Ideas of a Decade".

Long Citation Jonathan Hart's 1992 book on Shakespeare's history plays, Theater and World, strikingly combined the disciplines of English and history, in each of which he has doctorates. His book on Northrop Frye confirmed his mastery of literary theory. And then in a recent series of three books on the New World, he engages the European colonial enterprise, from early modern times, when England and France followed Spain in the "Scramble for America," to the Spanish-American War. Combining exacting archival research with close literary analysis of documents in several languages, he presents a daring and original vision of the colonization of one continent by another.

Dr. Hartling holds a Canada Research Chair (Tier 1) in Knowledge Synthesis and Translation, and is a Distinguished Researcher with the Stollery Science Lab. She is internationally recognized for integrating the best available scientific evidence to support decision-making in health. She produces evidence-based resources that are used globally by front-line healthcare providers, policy-makers, and parents and families.

Mme Hartling est titulaire d'une Chaire de recherche du Canada de niveau 1 en synthèse et application des connaissances, et chercheuse au sein du laboratoire scientifique Stollery. Elle est reconnue sur le plan international pour l'intégration des meilleures preuves scientifiques disponibles afin de soutenir la prise de décision dans le domaine de la santé. Elle produit des ressources fondées sur des données probantes qui sont utilisées dans le monde entier par les prestataires de soins de santé de première ligne, les décideurs politiques, les parents et les familles.

Fernand Harvey, Institut national de la recherche scientifique - Culture et société (Université du Québec), s'est particulièrement illustré par sa contribution remarquable à l'histoire et à la sociologie de la culture et à l'étude de la société québécoise. Ses travaux les plus importants ont porté sur la culture ouvrière, la culture régionale et les relations interculturelles, mais il s'est aussi intéressé à d'autres questions comme les institutions culturelles, l'évolution des sciences humaines, les idéologies et les valeurs. Harvey est l'un des meilleurs experts sur la culture québécoise et son évolution au cours des XIXe et XXe siècles. Il a publié un grand nombre de livres et d'articles et a été le concepteur de trois importantes séries documentaires audiovisuelles (régions, culture, Francophonies d'Amérique).

James Curtis Hathaway is the world’s leading refugee law scholar. Over the past four decades, his voice has reshaped the way courts, policy makers, and scholars around the world understand refugeehood and the rights of refugees. Hathaway has devoted himself to social justice, in particular to ensuring that human rights inform how judges and policymakers around the world approach refugee protection. His scholarship has ensured Canada’s leadership in this field.

James Curtis Hathaway est le plus grand spécialiste mondial du droit des réfugiés. Au cours des quarante dernières années, sa voix a modifié la façon dont les tribunaux, les décideurs politiques et les chercheurs du monde entier considèrent le statut de réfugié et les droits des réfugiés. Il s'est consacré à la justice sociale, en particulier en veillant à ce que les droits de la personne influencent la manière dont les juges et les décideurs politiques du monde entier abordent la protection des réfugiés. Ses travaux ont permis au Canada de jouer un rôle de premier plan dans ce domaine.

La carrière de M. Alain Haurie est remarquable. Il est devenu professeur à I'Ecole des Hautes Etudes Commerciales de Montréal en 1963. A cette époque, l'enseignement de l'administration accordait une large place à la description du cadre juridique et des institutions, ainsi qu'au transfers des techniques et croyances des administrateurs en exercice. Mathématicien, M. Haurie s'est efforcé d'y introduire une nouvelle dimension. Par son enseignement et ses recherches - qui sont la source de plus d'une centaine de publications - il a persuadé ses collègues et étudiants que les méthodes quantitatives permettent de mieux préparer les décisions et doivent, par conséquent, trouver place dans la formation des administrateurs. Il a « modélisé » des problèmes de grande importance, soient ceux de la gestion des systèmes énergétiques et des établissements de santé. On lui doit la fondation du Groupe d'Etudes et de Recherches en Analyse des Décisions, qui recrute ses collaborateurs dans la plupart des universités et grandes écoles du Québec. Le travail inlassable de Monsieur Haurie le place parmi ceux qui ont fait progresser les sciences de la gestion et contribué à l'étude de problèmes importants.
