Some of the waste from these operations, in the form of quartz tailings, was used as bal­ last when the Sault Ste. Marie branch of the Canadian Pacific Railway was built in 1887. Due to the primitive concentrating process used, these tailings contained a significant amount of residual copper and some precious metals and, one day, Can­ adian Pacific Limited may find it worth­ while to mine this part of CP RAIL's own roadbed. Back in 1898, two new copper mining concerns appeared at the "Bruce", one at the town and the other at Rock Lake, some ten miles to the north. Bruce Copper Mines Limited, the "town" company, spent large sums of money on surface installations, like a stamp mill for crushing ore, a coal dock and over a mile of railway to connect mill and mine and dock. Rock Lake Mining Company also erected expensive facilities above ground, the most impressive being a huge mill on the shores of Rock Lake, about two miles from the mine. A standard-gauge railway was built to connect the two sites. The mill's production was to be sent to a smelter in Michigan for refining and, in order to transport it out of Rock Lake, the Bruce Mines and Algoma Railway Company ~as chartered in 1899 to build north to Rock Lake from a point (junction) on the Canadian Pacific's Sault Branch.

  • A Brief Historical Perspective of Urban Forests in Canada As Published in Histoires Forestières Du Québec, Hiver 2015 Vol
    Urban Forest Series, Volume I A Brief Historical Perspective of Urban Forests in Canada As published in Histoires forestières du Québec, Hiver 2015 Vol. 7, No 1, Pages 27-32 Michael Rosen, R.P.F. President, Tree Canada Introduction In recent years, a greater amount of interest has been in expressed in urban forests – partly as a result of increasing urbanization but also due to new threats including the invasive insect, emerald ash borer. This history reveals much about the country itself - the reluctance to move past the image of “hewers of wood” has made urban forestry a young “specialty field” within forestry in Canada. According to Dean (2015), European urban forests with their long lines of identical trees speak of the human control of na- ture while in North America, rows of street trees served to tame the wilderness as muddy frontier roads were “brought into line”. Others point to the “democratization of the automobile, densification, climate change and invasive insects” as powerful North American themes which pose the greatest threat to urban forests (Lévesque, 2014, p 6). Urban forests in Canada have been dominated by three themes: superficial support by the provincial and federal governments, individuals’ commitment to developing urban forests of excellence, and awareness and action fueled by natural disaster. Canada – the Urban People in a Forest Nation The world looks to Canada as a forest leader – and with good reason. With 417.6 million ha of forest (10% of the world) Canada leads in many of the standard, industrial forestry measures: “timber-pro- ductive forest land”, “allowable annual cut”, “area burned by forest fire”, and “area of certified forest”.

    Plains of Abraham - Wikipedia https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plains_of_Abraham Coordinates: 46°47′59″N 71°13′15″W The Plains of Abraham (French: Plaines d'Abraham) is a Plains of Abraham historic area within The Battlefields Park in Quebec City, Quebec, Canada. The land is the site of the Battle of the Plains of Abraham, which took place on 13 September 1759, but hundreds of acres of the fields became used for grazing, housing, and minor industrial structures.[2] Only in 1908 was the land ceded to Quebec City, though administered by the specifically created and federally-run National Battlefields Commission. The park is today used by 4 million visitors and tourists annually for sports, relaxation, outdoor concerts, and festivals.

  • Declaration of Quebec City 1
    Declaration of Quebec City 1 We, the democratically elected Heads of State and Government of the Americas, have met in Quebec City at our Third Summit, to renew our commitment to hemispheric integration and national and collective responsibility for improving the economic well- being and security of our people. We have adopted a Plan of Action to strengthen representative democracy, promote good governance and protect human rights and fundamental freedoms.* We seek to create greater prosperity and expand economic opportunities while fostering social justice and the realization of human potential. We reiterate our firm commitment and adherence to the principles and purposes of the Charters of the United Nations and of the Organization of American States (OAS). Our rich and varied traditions provide unparalleled opportunities for growth and to share experiences and knowledge and to build a hemispheric family on the basis of a more just and democratic international order. We must meet the challenges inherent in the differences in size and levels of social, economic and institutional development in our countries and our region. We have made progress in implementing the collective undertakings made at Miami in 1994 and continued at Santiago in 1998. We recognize the necessity to continue addressing weaknesses in our development processes and increasing human security. We are aware that there is still much to be achieved if the Summit of the Americas process is to be relevant to the daily lives of our people and contribute to their well-being. We acknowledge that the values and practices of democracy are fundamental to the advancement of all our objectives.
