  • MANITOUWADGE by Amandine Martel & José-Karl Noiseux ]
    Community Labour Market Report MANITOUWADGE By Amandine Martel & José-Karl Noiseux ] The Community Labour Market Report series provides local labour market indicators to assist community leaders and organizations in the decision-making process. The goal of this report is to provide community actors with a better understanding of what is happening in their community. It does not attempt to explain the reasons behind the trends, spikes or troughs in the provided data. This information is intended as a starting point for an evidence-based conversation by the community about why certain changes are occurring. This report is a first step. It is now up to you, the reader, and your fellow community members to explore and address the challenges and opportunities your community is experiencing. This report examines current labour demand and supply data from Manitouwadge, Ontario, and analyzes how each data set aligns with the other. DEMAND 01. Employers Central to local labour market planning is an understanding of the characteristics of area employers, such as their numbers, size, and the industries they represent. Changes in any of these factors over time affect employment levels and opportunities within a local labour market. Manitouwadge’s employers are predominately small businesses. Indeed, 82.4 percent of businesses in the community have fewer than five employees (Table 2). By comparison, 87 percent of Ontario businesses had fewer than five employees in December 2016 (Statistics Canada, 2016). Furthermore, the total number of businesses in Manitouwadge decreased between December 2015 and December 2016 (Table 2). In addition, it is possible that the fluctuation in the size of businesses observed during this time period resulted in part due to some businesses downsizing their activities.

  • 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.

  • Introduction
    INTRODUCTION to the Index of Death Notices, Obituaries, Estate Notices and In Memoriams as published in the Port Arthur Daily News and Port Arthur News-Chronicle 1906 - 1919 This alphabetical index was created to provide an easy reference for researchers seeking family information, biographical sources and estate files of individuals. The references cited are from the Port Arthur Daily News 1906 - 1916 and the Port Arthur News-Chronicle 1916 - 1919. These references are in most cases the first published notice. Researchers are urged to search forward about a week or two in the newspaper on microfilm from the date the death notice or obituary was published to find references to inquest cases or cards of thanks notices, as these are not included here. When variations in spellings of names were found, both variations were usually entered. In the time period of this database, death notices were not published for every person who died in the district. There were many news reports of men killed in industrial accidents such as the C.N.R. construction, however, names were not always included. Comparisons of the Ontario vital statistics and this database show only about 50 – 70% of deaths had published notices. There are very few notices in the pre-1910 Daily News. The reasons might have been editorial, social custom or cost of the notice. Rural deaths were more commonly noted in the correspondent updates from the district, especially for infants. If references about an individual are not found here or the Daily Times- Journal, please consult the Ontario Death Indexes and Registrations at the LDS Thunder Bay Family History Centre or at www.Ancestry.com available at Brodie Library.
