Submission of manuscripts: Manuscripts should be submitted through our online system. A tentative title and abstract of 50 to 100 words (preferably in both English and French) should be submitted with the manuscript.

Review: All manuscripts are evaluated by at least two expert referees.

Preparation of copy: Use italics rather than underlining where applicable. Use endnotes rather than footnotes.

Tables and figures:  Tables and figures should be numbered separately and placed together at the end of the document. Figures can be sent in separate image files. Insert a location note at the appropriate place in the text (e.g., ”Insert Table 2 here”). Prepare tables as simply as possible. Figures must be sharp and clear and must fit within the text area of a journal page (115 mm × 175 mm).
