INTRODUCTION The St. Marys River forms the outlet of Lake Superior, connecting Whitefish Bay with Lake Huron through De Tour Passage. Lake Superior and the St. Marys River are both highly regulated. The Soo Locks bypass the St. Marys River Rapids and make navigation possible between Lakes Superior and Huron. 2. PHYSICAL CHARACTERISTICS From its nominal head at Point Iroquois, the river flows in a general southeasterly direction through several channels covering a distance of from 101 km to 121 km (63 mi to 75 mi), depending on the route taken, with a total fall of about 6.7 m (22 ft). Approximately 6.1 m (20 ft) of this fall occur in the St. Marys Rapids, which are less than 1.5 km (1 mi) long and form a very short middle reach with distinct hydraulic characteristics. Altogether, there are three different hydraulic reaches in the St.

  • Summer Birds of the Les Cheneaux Islands

    Summer Birds of the Les Cheneaux Islands

    Summer Birds of Les Cheneaux Islands 21 SUMMER BIRDS OF THE LES CHENEAUX ISLANDS BY J. VAN TYNE About eleven miles northeast of Macinac Island, along the Lake Huron shore of the Upper Peninsula of Michigan, lies a group of islands known as the Les Cheneaux Islands. This group of islands is about eleven miles long and about four wide. They are covered with a second growth, consisting largely of cedar, spruce, hemlock and poplar. The immediately acljacent mainland and parts of Marquette Island contain a considerable amount of cleared land, which of course makes for a greater variety of bird life. The following list is compiled from observations made during June, July and August of the years 1917 to 1921 inclusive. In 1918 the first half of September was also spent there. The only previous list of the birds of these islands seems to be a list of the autumn birds by Mr. Walter C. Wood (Wilson Bulletin, June, 1905 ; March, 1907).’ Allowing for the difference to be expected between the summer and fall birds, the status of a number of birds seems to have changed considerably. 1. PIED-BILLED GREBE-POdilfJ?nbUS podiceps. Noted at Steeles Creek August 29, 1918. 2. LooN-Gavia immer. This species was met with occasionally every summer, especially in the more open water. In 1918 an adult was seen accompanied by sev- eral half-grcrwn young. 3. HERRING Gurx.--Larus argemtatus. A very common summer resident. A nesting colony of several hun- dred on Goose Island, the most isolated of the islands was visited July 3, 1918, when most of the young were hatched and out.

N1H 4Y3 Phone: (519) 823-1647 / Fax: (519) 821-0202 URL: www.hcaconsulting.ca Email: [email protected] ii Executive Summary The purpose of this report is to provide a profile of agriculture in the Algoma - Manitoulin region and an update on the economic impact of agriculture on the wider economy. The report is intended to help the broader community better understand the nature and economic significance of the agricultural economy in terms of dollars and jobs. The findings are also intended to inform program and policy development work within northern Ontario. Only by better understanding the important role played by food related activities can the various participants in the agri-food economy work together to make decisions which are economically sound, environmentally sustainable and socially responsible. The research in this report relies on data from the Population and Agricultural Census (1996-2006) and a review of the findings from the previous agri-economic impact study conducted in the region in 2002. The study was completed as part of a larger collaborative partnership between stakeholder groups in Thunder Bay District, Rainy River District, Kenora District and Cochrane District. The focus of this report is on the Algoma - Manitoulin region. The value of agricultural production in the Algoma - Manitoulin region is substantial.

  • Exploring Historical Literacy in Manitoulin Island Ojibwe

    Exploring Historical Literacy in Manitoulin Island Ojibwe

    Exploring Historical Literacy in Manitoulin Island Ojibwe ALAN CORBIERE Kinoomaadoog Cultural and Historical Research M'Chigeeng First Nation This paper will outline uses of Ojibwe1 literacy by the Manitoulin Island Nishnaabeg2 in the period from 1823 to 1910. Most academic articles on the historical use of written Ojibwe indicate that Ojibwe literacy was usu­ ally restricted to missionaries and was used largely in the production of religious materials for Christianizing Native people. However, the exam­ ples provided in this paper will demonstrate that the Nishnaabeg of Mani­ toulin Island3 had incorporated Ojibwe literacy not only in their religious correspondence but also in their personal and political correspondence. Indeed, Ojibwe literacy served multiple uses and had a varied audience and authorship. The majority of materials written in Ojibwe over the course of the 19th century was undoubtedly produced by non-Native people, usually missionaries and linguists (Nichols 1988, Pentland 1996). However, there are enough Nishnaabe-authored Ojibwe documents housed in various archives to demonstrate that there was a burgeoning Nishnaabe literacy movement from 1823 to 1910. Ojibwe documents written by Nishnaabe chiefs, their secretaries, and by educated Nishnaabeg are kept at the fol­ lowing archives: the United Chief and Councils of Manitoulin's Archives, the National Archives of Canada, the Jesuit Archives of Upper Canada and the Archives of Ontario. 1. In this paper I will use the term Ojibwe when referring to the language spoken by the Nishnaabeg of Manitoulin. Manitoulin Nishnaabeg include the Ojibwe, Potawatomi and Odawa nations. The samples of "Ojibwe writing" could justifiably be called "Odawa writ- ing.
