    Characterizing the Flow Regime in Brook Trout (Salvelinus Fontinalis) Incubation Habitats and the Implications for Management in a Hydro-Regulated River

    Characterizing the flow regime in Brook Trout (Salvelinus fontinalis) incubation habitats and the implications for management in a hydro-regulated river by Stephen Slongo A Master’s thesis presented in Partial fulfillment of the requirements for the Degree of Master of Science in Forestry Faculty of Natural Resources Management Lakehead University Thunder Bay, Ontario January 2018 1 Abstract Hydropower accounts for more than one third of Ontario Power Generation’s electrical production. Hydroelectric development often occurs on rivers that also support recreational fisheries. The construction and operation of dams, diversions and generating facilities unavoidably influence the ecological function of rivers. The Aguasabon River is a northern Canadian Shield river with major developments for water diversion, storage, and power generation. This river offers opportunity to examine the importance of vertical flows through the substrate at a Brook Trout (Salvelinus fontinalis) spawning area. The vertical and horizontal hydraulic gradients and subsequent water temperature changes are the subject of this study. Piezometers were used to monitor the river and subsurface water levels near Brook Trout redds during the spawning and incubation period under normal and increasing discharge conditions. The Brook Trout spawning area in the Aguasabon River experienced upwelling conditions for the entire monitoring period (Oct 28th, 2016 – Jan 13th, 2017) before water release at the Long Lake Control Dam (LLCD). Hyporheic temperatures declined gradually, remaining >3.7 °C. The river temperature in the winter before water release was 1.5 °C. Rapid increase in water level after discharge from above the LLCD resulted in the reversal of flow in the hyporheic zone.

Retired City of Winnipeg Police Sergeant Cecil Sveinson arranged some of the community interviews and provided valuable advice on matters relating to police training, recruitment and general police behavior. Tom Lockwood QC, acted as an important liaison with the OCPC and also assisted in a liaison role with the OIPRD. He helped conduct witness interviews, and his assistant Dorothy Balazs scheduled most of the witness interviews. His prior experience as OCPC Investigator helped keep this investigation on track. Professor Andrew Graham responded to my call for assistance and provided valuable insights into police board governance issues generally. Graham Boswell was assigned early on to the Investigation by the OCPC and was a great help in coordinating matters with Commission staff, especially the Media Scan, as well as identifying issues and witnesses. Shannon McDunnough and Gun Koleoglu of OCPC helped oversee the collecting of transcripts and documents. The Investigation’s General Counsel, Candice Metallic of Maurice Law, supported me with legal advice as needed, and did a considerable amount of research on the issues set out in the Report.

    MAMOWENCHIGE ‘WORKING TOGETHER’ October 22-25, 2019 Boozhoo Welcome to the Mamowenchige “Working Together” Conference. This conference has been developed through the G’minoomaadozimin initiative. G’minoomaadozimin means We are Living Well. It is a Health and Safety program that envisions communities where all people are safe whether they are at home, in the workplace or in the community. Over the next four days we will be discussing ideas that improve the health, safety and wellness within our communities. For the first two days, conference presenters will speak on how communities can address lateral violence and harassment as well as the importance of cultural safety at work and for the overall safety for our community members. The final two days will be training for Spirit Builders. Our Spirit Builder Training has become a positive force of traditional values and teachings, knowledge exchange and has brought an awareness forward that can only be described as a healthy and honest conversation. We pride ourselves on the content of the Our Journey Away from Lateral Violence Training Program and look forward to sharing this inspiring knowledge with as many people as possible. Through the Mamowenchige “Working Together” Conference, Nokiiwin hopes to bring forward ideas and best practices from across Canada from an Indigenous perspective that will help everyone to live well in their own way. Thank you for taking the next four days to learn and to share this journey with us. 01 Floor Map Event Rooms Second Floor Balcony Pointe Du Meuron First Floor Room Amethyst Room Catering Admin Washrooms Office Office Elevator Banquet Office Storage Room Elevator Kaministiquia Room Wash Wash Mc Gillivrary room room Kitchen Room Sundeck Rock Garden Café & Bar McKenzie A McKenzie B Fire Balcony 02 Day 1 October 22, 2019 Kamanistiquia Room Amethyst Room Pointe Du Meuron 7:30 a.m.

    Checklist of Fishes of Thunder Bay District, Ontario

    Thunder Bay Field Naturalists Checklist of Fish es of Thunder Bay District , Ontario 31 December 2019 Introduction This first edition of Checklist of Fishes of Thunder Bay District adds to existing checklists prepared by members of the Thunder Bay Field Naturalists (TBFN) covering other vertebrate taxa (mammals, birds, reptiles & amphibians), as well vascular plants, butterflies, and odonates. As with these other checklists, it covers the official judicial District of Thunder Bay (Figure 1). The District extends from the eastern border of Quetico Provincial Park east to White River, and from the international border north to Lake St. Joseph and the Albany River. Much of the District (60%) is within the Great Lakes watershed, with the remaining draining into the Arctic Ocean either north via the Hudson Bay Lowlands, or west via Rainy Lake/Lake of the Woods and the Nelson River watershed. Figure 1. Judicial District of Thunder Bay with primary watersheds and protected areas. 2 The fish species of the Thunder Bay District mostly reflect post-glacial colonization, modified by more recent ecological and anthropogenic influences. The Wisconsinan ice mass began to retreat north of Lake Superior circa 10,700 BP (Farrand and Drexler 1985), allowing fish to initially colonize the Thunder Bay area (Momot and Stephenson 1996). The Marquette advance circa 9900 BP likely wiped out these early colonizers, but its retreat around 9700 BP allowed many species access from glacial refugia in the Mississippi River basin to the south (Mandrak and Crossman 1992b; Stephenson and Momot 1994). Some species invaded from the east via the outlet of Lake Minong and Lake Superiors’ other post-glacial predecessors.
