Despite Parliament's 1989 resolution to eliminate child poverty in Canada, the situation has grown progressively worse. Statistics show the negative impact of poverty on a child's capacity to learn. According to the National Longitudinal Study on Children and Youth, approximately 20 percent of children are not prepared to enter school. This lack of school readiness is strongly associated with poverty and the parents' level of education. In a 1997 study on the impact of poverty on education, the Canadian School Boards Association found that inadequate nutrition could cause long- term negative effects on child's achievement in school. This link between poverty and poor health is well established. Lack of good nutrition and health is far more likely to lead to difficulties with attendance and concentration in school, and sets up yet another layer of marginalization. Poverty comes in all shapes, colours and sizes and is very complex. To fully understand and address poverty means coming to terms with issues of race, class, gender and abilities. A good education has the power to break the cycle of poverty, but it is definitely not the cure. Eliminating child poverty requires a major and ongoing commitment by governments to put children first.

The present article discusses historical, conceptual, and methodological issues associated with the cross-cultural measurement of personality. It documents the extensive debate and discussion that has emerged from the juxtaposition of the trait-situation, universalism-relativism, quantitative-qualitative, and anthropology-psychology polarities in the past decade. Following a discussion of these polarities, the present article concludes that the contending (and contentious) positions should be replaced by collaborative disciplinary research efforts that are open to the possibility of both cultural variations and universals in human behavior. Fundamental similarities in behavior may exist across cultural boundaries because of bio-evolutionary, natural language descriptors and similar life-activity and socialization contexts. Major differences may exist for the very same reasons. At this point in time, it is more fruitful to have inquiry guided by questions rather than efforts to affirm positions. Neither side in the bitter debates that have arisen has provided sufficient evidence to warrant their unconditional acceptance.
