Anyone reading these stories is taken back in time to what life was like in our smaller communities when local dances, songs and Gaelic music provided fun for young and old alike. It is a story of valour, courage, heartbreak and disaster during the war; of friends lost when a German U Boat torpedoed a tanker and a destroyer could not get near enough to pick up survivors because of the fire ring caused by the spilled oil; a story of courage and dedication displayed by the women of the Royal Canadian Naval Service, or WRENS, working at 'an Eastern Canadian port' for one dollar a day; a story of the Red Cross auxiliaries of District Two supplying the men and women under siege in England and at the front; a story of harvest excursions in August 1923 to Canada's western provinces, of uncovered Mic Mac Burial grounds, of ship building, and the Bounty built at Lunenburg and crewed by Pictou County men. This book is truly a reference book of Nova Scotia's history. I am glad it has been compiled, for it has been said that, "those who do not understand history are condemned to repeat it". Some important lessons can be learned from our past if our present day society is not too disinterested in taking advantage of the knowledge it provides. Yours sincerely. Lloyd R. Crouse Lieutenant Governor Province of Nova Scotia THE PREMIER M.IFAX, NOVA SCOTIA B3J 2T3 MESSAGE FROM THE PREMIER It is a sincere pleasure and honour for me to be included in this history of the community of Caribou District Two. Having grown up and lived all my life not far from Caribou, I share your attachment to and appreciation for our local history, culture, countryside and people. To enshrine in this document the stories and music of our past will serve future generations well, and provide Pictonians, no matter where they live, with a permanent record of their home. This book is a labour of love for all involved in its compilation. I am proud to make this small contribution. Don W.

Canso by Roy Prest The S.S. Canso, as the name implies, was a steam powered deep sea tugboat, commissioned by the federal Department of Transport and registered in Ottawa, Canada. Her final resting place was on the shores of Caribou Harbour, where she was positioned and scrapped by Bernard Prest. The S.S. Canso was constructed between 1915 and 1920 in Yarmouth, Nova Scotia. It is understood that her building plate and name are now in a museum in Yarmouth. As mentioned, the Canso was a deep water tug in the 80 foot range, being built of riveted steel plates and powered by a triple expansion steam engine with condenser; the steam was produced by a 40 ton ± coal fired steam boiler. Her propeller or screw was a four blade, fixed pitch, cast iron unit which weighed approximately one and a half tons. Steering was done by heavy cables attached to an aft mounted rudder. No hydraulics were involved. Travel between the engine room and boiler room was via a small water tight door on the starboard side of the ship. Of course, this could be sealed by a screw type locking device in event of the ship taking water. The Canso had a variety of jobs during her commission including moving barges, scows and dredges in the Gulf of St. Lawrence and Northumberland Strait. At the outbreak of World War II she was used to clear ice in Pictou Harbour. She stayed in the service of the D.O.T. until newer diesel powered craft replaced the aging steam powered ships. When she retired she was purchased by Gulf Services operated by Mickey Morrison and J.B. Ferguson. At the end of her long service she was purchased by Bernard Prest of Caribou and tied up at Caribou wharf for salvage. For one winter work was done at Caribou wharf to remove brass, copper, steel, etc. and the following fall (1964) she was towed to her final resting place by two fishing boats operated by the late Duncan MacKenzie and Billy Hislop. Soon after being disposited on the shores of Caribou Harbour a storm of unusual fury drove her high and dry on the spot where she stayed until her total dismantling. Bernard Prest died in 1978 and Bert Livingstone finished the final salvage of the hull shortly after. The S.S. Canso had been well endowed with oak railings and teak doors and woodwork. Her memory lives on in a classic captain's table built from her teak by Roy Prest and several items produced by students at West Pictou District High School. Pictures of the grounded craft are available from Murray Photography in New Glasgow. Foreword Carriboo District Two is one of seventeen districts in the county of PictOU. It is made up of a number of small communities including: Bay View, Braeshore, Cariboo, Central Cariboo, Carriboo Island, Carriboo River, Waterside, Three Brooks and Toney River. Settlement in this area took place relatively early with many of the families in the area today tracing their roots back to the original settlers. The early settlers were bound to their land and cultivated it with care .ind devotion. Many endured harsh treatment before coming to North America and conditions of settlement were not easy. The land was densely wooded, the I Innate was unforgiving and the people were mainly very poor. Yet, they were ill sturdy stock and met the challenges of the new land with optimism that would carry the generations into the modern world. Each community in the district developed along with the others, but each is different in subtle ways. Each community is unique yet, is interconnected to its neighbouring communities. In the early years, these little pockets of humanity were self sufficient with shipbuilders plying their trade, blacksmiths, saw and grist mills, and other businesses needed within the i (immunity.

    “For Christ and Covenant:” A Movement for Equal Consideration in Early Nineteenth Century Nova Scotia. By Holly Ritchie A Thesis Submitted to Saint Mary’s University, Halifax, Nova Scotia in Partial Fulfilment of the Requirements for the Degree of Master of Arts in History © Copyright Holly Ritchie, 2017 November, 2017, Halifax, Nova Scotia Approved: Dr. S. Karly Kehoe Supervisor Approved: Dr. John Reid Reader Approved: Dr. Jerry Bannister Examiner Date: 30 November 2017 1 Abstract “For Christ and Covenant:” A Movement for Equal Consideration in Early Nineteenth Century Nova Scotia. Holly Ritchie Reverend Dr. Thomas McCulloch is a well-documented figure in Nova Scotia’s educational historiography. Despite this, his political activism and Presbyterian background has been largely overlooked. This thesis offers a re-interpretation of the well-known figure and the Pictou Academy’s fight for permeant pecuniary aid. Through examining Scotland’s early politico-religious history from the Reformation through the Covenanting crusades and into the first disruption of the Church of Scotland, this thesis demonstrates that the language of political disaffection was frequently expressed through the language of religion. As a result, this framework of response was exported with the Scottish diaspora to Nova Scotia, and used by McCulloch to stimulate a movement for equal consideration within the colony. Date: 30 November 2017 2 Acknowledgements Firstly, to the wonderful Dr. S. Karly Kehoe, thank you for providing me with an opportunity beyond my expectations. A few lines of acknowledgement does not do justice to the impact you’ve had on my academic work, and my self-confidence.

  • Aims 6Th Annual High School Report Card (Rc6)
    AIMS 6TH ANNUAL HIGH SCHOOL REPORT CARD (RC6) Nova Scotia High Schools Two years ago, a ruling by Nova Scotia’s Freedom of Information and Protection of Privacy Review Officer confirmed that the release of student achievement data was in the public interest. However, AIMS is still not able to report locally assigned exam grades or attendance in Nova Scotia schools, as some boards are still not able to access this information or simply refuse to do so. Following the closing of Queen Elizabeth High School in Halifax, last year’s top ranked school, we were assured a new school at the top of the rankings. Cape Breton Highlands Academy in Terre Noire jumped from third place in RC5 to take over the number one spot in the province, maintaining an ‘A-’ grade. Cape Breton Highlands was the only school in Nova Scotia to achieve an ‘A’ grade, with Charles P. Allen in Bedford also maintaining its ‘B+’ grade from last year to claim second spot in the rankings. Dalbrae Academy in Southwest Mabou saw its grade drop from an ‘A-’ to a ‘B+’ but still finished third overall. Several schools saw improvements of two grade levels. Rankin School of the Narrows and Pictou Academy-Dr. T. McCulloch School both improved from a ‘C+’ to a ‘B’ and finished eighth and ninth overall, respectively. Canso Academy (‘C’ to ‘B-’) and Annapolis West Education Centre (‘C’ to ‘B-’) also improved by two grade levels. Springhill Junior-Senior High School was the only school to see its grade decline more than two levels, falling from a ‘B-’ to a ‘C-’.

It outlines the Vineyard’s transportation issues and outlines proposals to deal with them. The Martha’s Vineyard Commission serves as one of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts’ thirteen Regional Planning Agencies. Ten of these thirteen regional planning agencies are federally designated Metropolitan Planning Organizations (MPO). The federal regulations require that an MPO be formed in urbanized areas with a population of 50,000 or more. While Martha’s Vineyard as well the Franklin County and Nantucket regions do not meet these criteria, the Executive Office of Transportation and Construction and the Massachusetts Highway Department provide planning funds for transportation planning in these regions, and essentially treat them as MPOs.

    ONTARIO COURT OF JUSTICE DATE: 2019 08 22 BETWEEN: HER MAJESTY THE QUEEN Applicant — AND — B.S. (YO) K.J. (YO) Respondents WATERLOO REGION RECORD CTV, A Division of Bell Media Inc. Intervenors Before Justice K. Katzsch Heard on July 23, 2019 Written Reasons for Judgment released on August 22, 2019 B. Thomas and A. Sethi .......................................... counsel for the Provincial Crown R. Gilliland .................................... Counsel for the Waterloo Record and CTV News KATZSCH J.: [1] The two young offenders in this matter were originally charged with first degree murder in the homicide of Shaun Yorke. Two adult offenders were also charged in relation to the same offence. It is the theory of the Crown that all four males acted in concert to affect a home invasion robbery, which ultimately resulted in the victim’s death. [2] On May 16, 2019, the two youths appeared before this court and entered guilty pleas to the lesser-included offence of manslaughter in relation to their roles in the death of Mr. Yorke. No facts were presented to the court at the time of the plea, as the Crown indicated that they would likely be seeking a publication ban relating to any facts that referenced the adult accused or specific details relating to the homicide. — 2 — [3] The two young offenders are scheduled to complete their sentencing on September 6th, 2019. The preliminary hearing for the two adult accused is set to commence in November 2019, with further dates into December and then January 2020. No dates have been set therefore in relation to a trial in that matter.
