Maria Tippett is a versatile and indefatigably industrious scholar who specializes in the history of Canadian culture, particularly the history of Canadian art. Her 1979 biography of Emily Carr won the Governor-General's prize for nonfiction in that year, as well as the MacDonald prize of the Canadian Historical Association. It was described by one major critic as an almost flawless book that set a new standard for cultural biography in Canada. Her later books, including biographies of Yousef Karsh, F.H. Varley, Charles Gimpel and Bill Reid along with general studies of Canadian culture have gone beyond biography to document, comprehensively and elegantly, the 'making' of the culture of English-speaking Canada in the era before the formation of the Canada Council. She is a former Fellow of Churchill College and member of the Faculty of History, Cambridge University, England. Her 16th book published in November2017 is: Sculpture in Canada, a history

Zoe Todd is a transdisciplinary scholar whose work engages science, art, social sciences, and Indigenous knowledge to tackle the diverse, interconnected challenges of protecting fish in rapidly changing watersheds and landscapes across the prairies. Through engagements with Indigenous environmental studies, she is helping to build Indigenous science studies in Canada. Her work focuses explicitly on applying Métis philosophy, art, and law to re-assert reciprocal relations with fish, water, and aquatic species.

Zoe Todd est une chercheuse transdisciplinaire dont le travail fait appel à la science, à l’art, aux sciences sociales et au savoir autochtone pour relever les défis divers et interconnectés de la protection des poissons dans les lignes de partage des eaux et les paysages en rapide évolution des Prairies. En s’engageant dans les études environnementales autochtones, elle contribue au développement des études scientifiques autochtones au Canada. Son travail porte explicitement sur l’application de la philosophie, de l’art et du droit des Métis pour réaffirmer les relations réciproques avec les poissons, l’eau et les espèces aquatiques.

Toles, George - Arts - University of Manitoba George Toles is Distinguished Professor of Literature and Film at the University of Manitoba. He is the author of A House Made of Light: Essays on the Art of Film. For twenty five years, he has been the screenwriting collaborator of Canadian filmmaker, Guy Maddin. He has recently written an original screenplay for Guy's latest feature film, Keyhole (2011), which has just finished shooting. He also wrote the original story and co-wrote the screenplay for Canada's first stop-motion animated film, Edison and Leo. ------------------ Toles, George - Arts - University of Manitoba George Toles, a Distinguished Professor in the Department of English, Film and Theatre at the University of Manitoba is an extraordinarily accomplished scholar and artist who has established an international reputation for both his critical and his creative work. As the long-time scriptwriter for director Guy Maddin, he has helped shape one of the most innovative and highly-praised bodies of work in recent Canadian film; he is also one of the most important voices in contemporary film criticism. His work on film has been commissioned by editors working with major international presses, including Oxford and Routledge. His scholarly work, which includes studies of British and American literature from the nineteenth century to the present as well as film criticism, consistently reaches beyond the academy to demonstrate the importance of arts and culture to the larger society.

Philippe D. Tortell's work has made seminal contributions to understanding the effects of ocean acidification on marine primary productivity and the physiological and biochemical responses of phytoplankton to oceanic CO2 variability. He has also pioneered the development of new approaches for autonomous instruments and tracer studies to measure the spatial distribution and turnover of multiple biogenic gases including O2, CO2, N2O, CH4 and dimethylsulfide, proving new insight into surface water biogeochemical cycles.

Les travaux de Philippe D. Tortell ont contribué fondamentalement à la compréhension des effets de la variabilité du CO2 océanique sur la productivité primaire marine et l’écologie physiologique du phytoplancton. Il a aussi lancé le développement de nouveaux instruments automatisés et des méthodes expérimentales pour mesurer la concentration océanique et les taux de production/consommation de différents gaz biogéniques, y compris l’oxygène, le dioxyde de carbone, l’oxyde nitreux, le méthane et le sulfure de diméthyle. Ces travaux façonnent notre compréhension de la biogéochimie océanique et de la régulation du climat.
