Update of the ssc.ca website

We launched a major update of the ssc.ca website. We have tried, wherever possible, to retain the look and feel of the old site, but you will notice some changes. As always with an upgrade of this magnitude, there may be things that were missed or which do not work as expected on the live site. We ask for you patience as we try to resolve these problems over the next few days.
