Software maker IPS laying off staff, cutting spending
Article Abstract:
Image Processing Systems Inc. (IPS) will lay off 15% of its workforce to reduce its spending by 25%, in an effort to balance its expenses with the reduced demand from Asia. IPS Chairman and President Terry Graham said the cuts will affect the entire firm but will not hurt its research and development projects. Company Chief Financial Officer Arthur Stern, who submitted his resignation on July 31, 1998, will join those leaving the firm that listed a loss of C$12.2 million in the past fiscal year despite increased revenue.

A little country, a little high tech
Article Abstract:
The Statistics Canada census data of 1996 showed the speedy growth of the suburbs. Topping the list was Blainville, Quebec, which saw its population grew by 30.5% since 1991. In contrast, 93% of new immigrants between 1991 and 1996 settled in one of the country urban areas, particularly in Toronto, Vancouver or Montreal. The census showed that 85% of all immigrants lived in an urban area, compared with only 57% of Canadian-born population.
