Abstract
Montréal, le 6 novembre 2018--Dans le contexte de la légalisation du cannabis au Québec et au Canada, le pharmacologue de renom, professeur à l'Université de Montréal, M. Ben Amar, le Centre québécois de lutte aux dépendances (CQLD) et le ministère de la Santé et des Services sociaux du Québec publient une toute nouvelle référence académique sur la question du cannabis « Le cannabis : Pharmacologie et toxicologie ».
Le nouveau livre fournit des informations justes, actuelles et exhaustives sur la substance controversée qu'est le cannabis. Il constitue une source incontournable pour les individus, les gouvernements, les organismes publics et privés ainsi que les petites et grandes corporations qui devront s'ajuster à cette nouvelle réalité. « Le cannabis : Pharmacologie et toxicologie » promet de devenir la référence sur la question, notamment au sujet de l'histoire, la législation, la pharmacologie et les risques pour la santé.
« Avec cette réalité nouvelle pour la société québécoise, nous avons à c'ur d'assurer la santé et la sécurité de la population, notamment les jeunes. Il est essentiel de bien informer les citoyens des effets de la consommation de cette substance, afin qu'ils puissent prendre des décisions éclairées à cet égard. En ce sens, ce livre vient offrir un éventail d'informations pertinentes, et la démarche qui a mené à sa publication reflète l'importance de la concertation et du partage d'expertises entre tous les acteurs concernés », souligne monsieur Horacio Arruda, directeur national de santé publique.

Abstract
A comic book for kids that includes children and families of all makeups, orientations, and gender identities, Sex Is a Funny Word is an essential resource about bodies, gender, and sexuality for children ages 8 to 10 as well as their parents and caregivers.
Much more than the "facts of life" or ?the birds and the bees," Sex Is a Funny Word opens up conversations between young people and their caregivers in a way that allows adults to convey their values and beliefs while providing information about boundaries, safety, and joy.
Sex Is a Funny Word is the first sex education book for this age group that is inclusive of lesbian, gay, and bisexual experience as well as gender creative and gender-nonconforming children. The book is also inclusive of trans and intersex bodies and lived experience.

Not sure what - or how much - information to share with children and teens regarding sex and sexual health? Do you fear what they might ask? Or how to respond to their questions? Or whether you even know the "answers" yourself?
Saleema Noon knows all about these fears and concerns. An expert in sexual health education and stepparent to two teenage daughters herself, she understands the challenges adults face when addressing sensitive topics with their kids.
In Talk Sex Today, Noon delivers an intelligent and sensible blend of current, inclusive, and practical information for children and teens - and the adults who love them. Noon builds on the foundational work of iconic sexual health educator Meg Hickling and her bestselling Speaking of Sex books to offer adults a break-through guide on teaching "body science."

Les enfants courent toujours. Nous leur répétons inlassablement de ralentir pour éviter de tomber et de se blesser. Une fois adulte, on court autant qu?eux, mais il n?y a plus personne pour nous dire de ralentir. Le marathon est quotidien : le 8 à 5, la routine, les enfants, les responsabilités, l?épicerie, les repas? Essoufflé. Épuisé. Brûlé. Combien de fois répétez-vous ces mots dans une seule journée. On attend les vacances avec impatience. On passe un temps fou à les planifier, on essaie de tout faire ce qu?on n?a pas fait dans l?année. Elles passent toujours trop vite. Et on revient au boulot étourdi et vidé.
On court après le bonheur. On espère devenir une meilleure personne. On vise plus de performance au travail. On recherche une relation amoureuse épanouie. Et une vie sociale bien remplie. Ah! Et les enfants? On ne pouvait pas imaginez à quel point ça prendrait autant d?énergie. Imaginez, on en a fait deux, trois ou peut-être même quatre. Comment faisaient nos arrière-grands-parents pour en élever autant? Quelle leçon n?a-t-on pas comprise?
Peut-on repenser son horaire et gagner du temps? Avons-nous seulement le temps de nous arrêter un moment et de repenser notre emploi du temps? Si vous aviez le pouvoir d?arrêter l?horloge, que feriez-vous en premier? Si on vous offrait une heure de plus par jour, comment l?occuperiez-vous? Je vous invite à une quête. Celle de trouver un sens à cette course contre la montre. Pour eux, mais surtout pour vous.

Abstract
At some point, children become curious about babies. This usually happens when a new baby arrives in a family (or is about to arrive and all the grown-ups are talking about it). But it can happen at other times, too.
Children want to know where babies come from in general. They also want to know, specifically, where they came from. These aren't the same question, and they don't have the same answer.
One answer articulates the unique story of their conception and birth, while the other offers the basics of how all human beings are born. Both stories are valuable. The first connects a child to their personal life history as well as their familial, cultural, and ethnic background. The second connects all children to each other; reminding us that while differences are important, and shouldn't be erased, shared humanity is a pretty cool thing, too.
This book helps adults tell children that second story. It doesn't include information about sexual intercourse, donor insemination, fertility treatments, surrogacy, or adoption. But it creates a space for you to share as few or as many of those details as you like.
Few adults are automatically comfortable talking about these things with children. For this reason, I've developed a simple reader's guide for parents. You can download it for free at www.what-makes-a-baby.com.

Tom likes lots of different things. He likes singing and watching TV in the family room. There are also things that Tom enjoys doing in private, like touching his penis.

It covers when and where it is appropriate and helps to establish boundaries surrounding privacy more generally. With simple but explicit illustrations, this book provides the perfect platform to talk about sexuality with boys and young men with autism or special needs.
