Human Influences five to six petals. The blooming period is early July into September. The plant’s root is a strong woody taproot with numerous fibrous side shoots that form a dense mat. The dense mat of roots can choke out the other vegetation and purple loosestrife becomes the dominant species and a monoculture develops. As native plant species die off, native wetland animals such as ducks, geese, rails, bitterns, muskrats, frogs, toads and turtles have to find new habitat because the shelter and source of food provided by native plants is eliminated. Many rare and endangered wetland plants and animals are at risk. A major reason for purple loosestrife's expansion is a lack of effective predators in North America. Several European insects that only attack purple loosestrife are being tested as a possible long-term biological control in North America. 2.6 Human Characterization 2.6.1 Population Distribution, Density and Change A summary of the population of the Lakehead Source Protection Area was created based on statistics provided on the Statistics Canada website www.statcan.ca. The information used was published in 2002 and at the time of the development of this report was the most current data available. During the period from 1996 to 2001, the total population in the Lakehead Source Protection Area decreased from 126,454 to 121,829 (approximately 3.7 percent). Most of the net population loss occurred within the City of Thunder Bay which lost 4646 people (4.1 percent) of its population from 1996 to 2001. Other areas which experienced population declines included the Townships of Dorion (-6.4 percent) and O’ Connor (-2.0 percent) and the Municipalities of Neebing (- 2.5 percent), and Oliver Paipoonge (-0.8 percent). Communities experiencing growth included the Townships of Conmee (2.6 percent) and Gillies (5.0 percent) and the Municipality of Shuniah (5.1 percent). The area within the jurisdiction of the Lakehead Region Conservation Authority, which includes the City of Thunder Bay and the organized Townships surrounding the City, has a population ratio is 0.44 persons per hectare. The density of people per hectare for the Lakehead Source Protection Area was estimated at less than 0.11 persons per hectare. Township of Conmee During the period from 1996 to 2001, the Township of Conmee experienced a growth in population of 2.6 percent as a result of the total population increasing from 729 to 748. The population breakdown for Conmee indicates a relatively young population with 185 individuals (24.7 percent) 14 years of age or younger and a total of 50 (6.7 percent) persons aged 65 or older.

The increase in population may be attributed to the conversion of seasonal cottages to full time residences. This factor may also account for some of the reduction in population in the City of Thunder Bay. The Municipality of Shuniah has 390 individuals (15.8 percent of the population) aged 14 and under and 335 individuals (13.6 percent of the population) that is aged 65 and over.

The City is also the largest community within the Lakehead Source Protection Area. During the period from 1996 to 2001, the City of Thunder Bay experienced a 4.1 percent decline in population as the total population decreased from 113,662 to 109,016. This decline represents the largest total population loss in a single community in the Lakehead Source Protection Area. One factor in the decrease in the population of Thunder Bay may be caused by residents moving to other local Municipalities for year round country or lakeshore living. The City of Thunder Bay has 17,130 individuals (18 percent) aged 14 and under and 15,205 individuals (15.7 percent) aged 65 or older. Together these two demographic age groups total approximately 33.7 percent of the total population of the City of Thunder Bay.

  • 2.6 Settlement Along the Ottawa River
    INTRODUCTION 76 2.6 Settlement Along the Ottawa River In spite of the 360‐metre drop of the Ottawa Figure 2.27 “The Great Kettle”, between its headwaters and its mouth, the river has Chaudiere Falls been a highway for human habitation for thousands of years. First Nations Peoples have lived and traded along the Ottawa for over 8000 years. In the 1600s, the fur trade sowed the seeds for European settlement along the river with its trading posts stationed between Montreal and Lake Temiskaming. Initially, French and British government policies discouraged settlement in the river valley and focused instead on the lucrative fur trade. As a result, settlement did not occur in earnest until the th th late 18 and 19 centuries. The arrival of Philemon Source: Archives Ontario of Wright to the Chaudiere Falls and the new British trend of importing settlers from the British Isles marked the beginning of the settlement era. Farming, forestry and canal building complemented each other and drew thousands of immigrants with the promise of a living wage. During this period, Irish, French Canadians and Scots arrived in the greatest numbers and had the most significant impact on the identity of the Ottawa Valley, reflected in local dialects and folk music and dancing. Settlement of the river valley has always been more intensive in its lower stretches, with little or no settlement upstream of Lake Temiskaming. As the fur trade gave way to farming, settlers cleared land and encroached on First Nations territory. To supplement meagre agricultural earnings, farmers turned to the lumber industry that fuelled the regional economy and attracted new waves of settlers.

P. GOGAN AND JEAN FITTS COCHRANE Introduction Woodland caribou (Rangifer tarandus caribou) historically occupied the boreal forest zone across the North American continent. The distribution and abun­ dance of the species has declined in the past century. In particular, it has been extirpated from much of the southern limits of its historical range on both sides of the boundary between Canada and the United States (Bergerud 1974). Translocation of animals from extant populations may be used to reestablish populations in portions of the species' former range. Recently, wildlife biolo­ gists in Ontario have translocated woodland caribou to a number of sites in or adjacent to Lake Superior. While it is too soon to evaluate their long-term suc­ cess, these restoration efforts do provide useful insights into factors likely to influence the outcome of woodland caribou translocations elsewhere.
