  • What Heritage-Based Collaboration Offers the Cross-Border Niagara Region
    Pathway to Peace: What Heritage-based Collaboration offers the Cross-border Niagara Region Kerry Mitchell “The ideal site for the world peace capital” Niagara “... here, there is peace”. “Surely to those who will implement the purpose of the United Nations, it will be inspiring to execute their high duties in a locality steeped in traditions of peace and good -neighborliness, among peoples of various ancestry who have forged indissoluble bonds of international good will and co-operation, and who have made peace work.” Drawn from the Canadian proposal to establish the UN at Navy Island; (McGreevy, “Imagining Niagara” p .66) “Niagara should be listed among the great treasures of the world for its natural scenery.” Frederick Law Olmsted and Calvert Vaux, General Plan for the Improvement of the Niagara Reservation, 1887 “We must ask ourselves if we are leaving for future generations an environment that is as good or better than we found.” Theodore Roosevelt, 26th President of the United States and NYS legislator credited with the legislation creating the Niagara Reservation, America’s first state park. 1 Symbols of peace and friendship between Canada and the United States can be found in monuments, agreements, bridges, official statements and individual relationships. The integration of the Canadian and U.S. economies is a testament to it, as is the joint stewardship of the Great Lakes, and the binational response to the events of 9/11. Whether overt or covert, symbols of peace and friendship are quite simply, everywhere. When the history of the relationship has already spoken so clearly to these ideals, what then is the benefit of yet another symbol of peace between Canada and the United States? This paper aims to address that question by putting forward the basis for re-imagining the cross-border Niagara region as an International Peace Park.

  • Fort Niagara – 1759-1815
    Fort Niagara – 1759-1815 Introduction: Fort Niagara was a French fortification built in 1726-27 to protect the interests of New France in North America, and is situated on a bluff on the east side of the Niagara River at Lake Ontario north of Youngstown, NY. The French had earlier built two less substantial forts at the site: Fort Conti, built by Cavalier de La Salle in 1679 and Fort Denonville, built by Governor Denonville in 1687. Gaspard-Joseph Chaussegros de Léry designed the impressive stone-constructed "French Castle," which survives today. Fort Niagara was surrendered to the British in July 1759 following a nineteen-day siege and the wilderness battle of La Belle Famille. The three flags flown daily above the parade ground symbolize the nations that have held Fort Niagara. Each competed for the support of a fourth nation: the powerful Iroquois Confederacy. The history of Fort Niagara spans more than 300 years. During the colonial wars in North America a fort at the mouth of the Niagara River was vital, for it controlled access to the Great Lakes and the westward route to the heartland of the continent. With the completion of the Erie Canal in 1825, however, the strategic value of Fort Niagara diminished. It nonetheless remained an active military post well into the 20th century. The Battle of Fort Niagara, 1759: The Battle of Fort Niagara was a siege late in the French and Indian War, the North American theatre of the Seven Years' War. The British siege of Fort Niagara in July 1759 was part of a campaign to remove French control of the Great Lakes and Ohio Valley regions, making possible a western invasion of the French province of Canada in conjunction with General James Wolfe's invasion to the east.

Constructed by the British following the capitulation of Fort Niagara, Fort George is of national historic significance because it served as the Headquarters of the Central Division of the British Army, and played a crucial role in the defence of Upper Canada during the War of 1812. Archaeological investigations in the last 50 years have shed light on the fort’s early structures and modifications. In 2009, funding allocated through the Federal Economic Action Plan provided an opportunity to further explore the fort’s historic transformation.
