Upon arrival, our group will get settled into the hotel and then spend the remainder of the day exploring this exciting city at our leisure. Montreal offers one of North America’s most exciting food scenes, with an amazing variety of food markets, English pubs, Jewish delis, quaint cafés, and more, making dinner on your own this evening a fun adventure! Note: The airport location and airline will be confirmed approximately 9 months before departure. DAY 2 WEDNESDAY, SEPTEMBER 30 QUEBEC CITY, QUEBEC (BD) Following breakfast this morning, we will embark on a tour of this French-infused city that is brimming with culture. We’ll see some of the city’s most famous landmarks and admire the mix of old and new architectural styles before traveling to Quebec City to board the Norwegian Pearl for our 10-night cruise through Canada and New England. DAY 3 THURSDAY, OCTOBER 1 SAGUENAY (LA BAIE), QUEBEC (BLD) The city of Saguenay, formed in 2002, is comprised of three boroughs: La Baie, Chicoutimi, and Jonquiere. Chicoutimi and Jonquiere are situated on the shores of the Saguenay River and La Baie is found on the whimsically named, the Baie des Ha Ha! This French-speaking region is north of Quebec City and is considered a small oasis in the midst of the nearly uninhabited Canadian wilderness. Learn about the history of the area through a cultural stage show boasting 200 actors, an array of animals, and exciting audio-visual techniques. If local crafts pique your interest, a craftsman tour will introduce you to a glass blower, a cheese maker, and an alpaca farm where the soft wool is turned into sweaters, scarves, hats, mittens, and more. DAY 4 FRIDAY, OCTOBER 2 AT SEA (BLD) Today we experience life at sea and take advantage of the countless opportunities on board for shopping, dining, and entertainment. Attend a show, visit the spa, or try your luck at the casino. DAY 5 SATURDAY, OCTOBER 3 CHARLOTTETOWN, PRINCE EDWARD ISLAND (BLD) A private excursion is included today so we can experience the very best of Prince Edward Island. We will travel to the scenic North Shore and Prince Edward Island National Park to view rolling farmlands, stunning seascapes, tiny villages, and bustling harbors. Along the way, photo stops will be made at quaint little fishing villages, lighthouses, and the world-class Cavendish Beach. A highlight of the tour will be a visit to Green Gables House, which served as inspiration for Anne of Green Gables by Lucy Maud Montgomery! The day will also include lunch at the Prince Edward Island Preserve Company, where locally grown fruit is made into delicious jams and marmalades. Our return to Charlottetown will have us discovering the history and charm of Canada’s birthplace as we drive past Province House, Beaconsfield, Great George Street, Charlottetown Driving Park, the Lieutenant Governor’s House, Victoria Park, the University of Prince Edward Island, and more. DAY 6 SUNDAY, OCTOBER 4 SYDNEY, NOVA SCOTIA (BLD) The coal industry brought immigrants from many parts of the world, giving Sydney a multicultural mix of over fifty ethnic backgrounds and a global flavor to its history. Located on Cape Breton Island, Sydney is also an ideal jumping-off point for scenic adventures. Excursion options include a trip to Baddeck to explore the Alexander Graham Bell Museum, a visit to the Fortress of Louisbourg, a scenic drive along the Cabot Trail, or a Sydney pub tour. Bar Harbor, Maine Newport, Rhode Island DAY 7 MONDAY, OCTOBER 5 HALIFAX, NOVA SCOTIA (BLD) Another private excursion is on the agenda as we join our kilted guide for an informative and fun-filled ride through the streets of Halifax that will immerse us in the history and culture of the city. We’ll see the Historic Properties, the Spring Garden Road area, Old Town Clock, St. Paul’s Church, Grand Parade, the busy port, the state-of-the-art Halifax Central Library, and much more. Highlights will include a stroll through the Victorian Public Gardens and a visit to the Citadel National Historic Site to learn about the origins of Halifax. We’ll then continue on to Peggy’s Cove to see the weather-worn fishing shacks, colorful buoys and lobster traps, awe-inspiring rock formations carved by glaciers, and the famous granite sculpture created by local resident William deGarthe. Lunch will be enjoyed overlooking one of the most photographed lighthouses in the world before we return to Halifax to visit the Fairview Lawn Cemetery where 121 passengers from the Titanic are buried. DAY 8 TUESDAY, OCTOBER 6 SAINT JOHN, NEW BRUNSWICK (BLD) Saint John's history is evident in its weather-worn look, passing the tests of salt air, sea winds, and a devastating fire that have all contributed to making Saint John the greatest little city in the east. Admire the gorgeous lighthouses, covered bridges, and wildlife as you cruise the Saint John River on a riverboat, learn the history of sugaring at a maple sugar farm, take a photography tour of New Brunswick, or take a foodies’ tour at the Old City Market. DAY 9 WEDNESDAY, OCTOBER 7 BAR HARBOR, MAINE (BLD) Bar Harbor has retained much of its charm since its glory days of the 1900s, when America's elite vacationed here in opulent summer cottages. Surrounding the rock-bound harbor is the world-famous Acadia National Park where the opulence of nature is on display. Tour the park by motorcoach or board a horse-drawn carriage and head off the beaten path for the scenic ride along the park’s famous gravel byways built by John D. Rockefeller. Nature lovers may be interested in whale watching or a nature cruise, and history buffs will enjoy hearing tales of the lavish parties and opulent lifestyles in Bar Harbor during the Gilded Age. DAY 10 THURSDAY, OCTOBER 8 BOSTON, MASSACHUSETTS (BLD) Welcome to an American city where history truly comes to life. Our private excursion will begin with a Freedom Trail walking tour that will introduce us to museums, churches, meeting houses, and historic sites such as Paul Revere’s House and Old North Church. The tour will continue around the city to the USS Constitution, the Boston Tea Party ship, Boston Commons, the Cheers bar, Beacon Hill, and Newbury Street. We’ll then cross the Charles River to Cambridge to see MIT and Harvard University before making our way to the Boston Public Market for a foodie tour with tastings. A visit to Boston’s Little Italy will be followed by a stop at the Skywalk Observatory to take in the impressive views of the city! DAY 11 FRIDAY, OCTOBER 9 NEWPORT, RHODE ISLAND (BLD) During the 19th century, Newport served as the summer playground for the rich and famous. Residents displayed their fabulous wealth in the form of palatial estates overlooking the Atlantic. Today’s private excursion will include the opportunity to tour one of these Gilded Age mansions and venture along Ocean Drive to take in the spectacular views of the shoreline and the lavish homes. After a traditional lobster bake lunch, we will stroll along cliffs and walk down the famous Thames Street with its colorful shops, bars, restaurants, museums, and charming historic homes. We’ll round out our day with the International Tennis Hall of Fame, the church where Jackie Bouvier married John F. Kennedy, and the Castle Hill Lighthouse.

  • The Fur Trade and Early Capitalist Development in British Columbia
    THE FUR TRADE AND EARLY CAPITALIST DEVELOPMENT IN BRITISH COLUMBIA RENNIE WARBURTON, Department of Sociology, University of Victoria, Victoria, British Columbia, Canada, V8W 2Y2. and STEPHEN SCOTT, Department of Sociology and Anthropology, Carleton University, Ottawa, Ontario, Canada, K1S 5B6. ABSTRACT/RESUME Although characterized by unequal exchange, the impact of the fur trade on the aboriginal societies of what became British Columbia involved minimal dis- ruption because the indigenous modes of production were easily articulated with mercantile capitalism. It was the problems arising from competition and increasing costs of transportation that led the Hudson's Bay Company to begin commodity production in agriculture, fishing and lumbering, thereby initiating capitalist wage-labour relations and paving the way for the subsequent disast- rous decline in the well-being of Native peoples in the province. Bien que characterisé par un échange inégale, l'impact du commerce de fourrure sur les societiés aborigonaux sur ce qui est devenu la Colombie Britanique ne dérangèrent pas les societés, car les modes indigènes de production était facile- ment articulés avec un capitalisme mercantile. Ce sont les problèmes qui venaient de la competition et les frais de transportation qui augmentaient qui mena la Companie de la Baie d'Hudson à commencer la production de commodités dans les domaines de l'agriculture, la pêche et l'exploitement du bois. Par ce moyen elle initia des rapports de salaire-travail capitalist et prépara les voies pour aboutir å une reduction catastrophique du bien-être des natifs dans cette province. THE CANADIAN JOURNAL OF NATIVE STUDIES V, 1(1985):27-46 28 R E N N I E W A R B U R T O N / S T E P H E N S C O T T INTRODUCTION In the diverse cultures in British Columbia prior to and after contact with the Europeans, economic activity included subsistence hunting, fishing and gathering as well as domestic handicrafts.

    The Earlv Hudson's Bay ~om~an;Account ~ooksas SOU~~~Sfor Historical Research: An Analysis and Assessment "Truth isn't in accounts but in account books . 'The real history is written in forms not meant as hist~ry."~ The potential value of the business records of the fur-trading companies as sources for economic and ethnohistorical research has long been recog- ni~ed.~Indeed, some of the fur traders were aware of the historical value of the accounting records that they were keeping. Issac Cowie, for instance, served the Hudson's Bay Company in the Saskatchewan area in the 1860's and 1870's and subsequently wrote about his experiences. In his memoirs he included a section which dealt with the kinds of information that historians could find in the post business accounts. Also, he stressed that these records should be pre~erved.~Fortunately, most of the 18th-century business documents of the Hudson's Bay Company have survived, and in fact, the accounting records of the posts are frequently more complete than other lines of evidence such as correspondence files or daily journals of events. Yet, although scholars have been mindful of. the possible utility of business accounts for historical research, relatively little use has been made I The author would like to express his appreciation to the Hudson's Bay Company for granting him permission to consult and quote from the company's microfilm collection on deposit in the Public Archives of Canada. The reproductions of account book pages which were provided were also greatly appreciated. Also, I would like to thank the staff of the Public Archives of Canada in Ottawa, particularly Peter Bower and Gary Maunder, for their friendly help.

  • 209 Fur Traders, Racial Categories, and Kinship
    209 Originally published as part of: 6th Algonquian Conference Papers (1974) FUR TRADERS, RACIAL CATEGORIES, AND KINSHIP NETWORKS Jennifer Brown University of Chicago Resume. Avant le fusionnement de leurs compagnies en 1821, les hommes de la Compagnie de la Baie d'Hudson et ceux de la Compagnie du Nord-Ouest employaient normalement des termes different pour designer les indigenes metisses des territoires indiens. Ces usages contrastants semblent refleter la difference d'attitudes et d'antecedents de ces deux groupes d'employes ainsi que les structures sociales distinctes dans lesquelles ils etaient integres—avec des implications quant aux genres de rapports sociaux que ces commercants entretenaient avec les groupes indigenes (en grande partie algonquins) et leurs membres. 210 Originally published as part of: 6th Algonquian Conference Papers (1974) FUR TRADERS. RACTAT, CATEGORIES, AND KTWSHIP NETWORKS In the decades between the 17cOs and 1821, the country of numerous Algonquian groups, as well as of many groups farther north and west, was also increasingly familiar territory to two varieties of European fur trader—Hudson's Bay Company men employed from London, England, and Canadian-based traders serving the interests of the various Montreal fur trade partnerships that eventually combined into the North West Company. The Hudson's Bay and North West Companies had strikingly different origins, histories, and organizational structures, and their personnel differed widely in their social origins, backgrounds, and 1 affiliations. This paper attempts first to sketch some of the social contrasts between these Companies and between their men, and then to pursue some possible relationships between these contrasts and the racial categories and attitudes of Hudson' s Bay men and North Westers in the Indian country.
