They differ from Tech- nical Reports in terms of subject scope and potential audience: Manusciipt Reports deal primarily with national or regional problems and distribution is generally restrict- ed to institutions or individuals located in particular regions of Canada. No restriction is placed on subject matter and the series reflects the broad interests and policies of the Department of Fisheries and Oceans, namely, fisheries management, technology and development, ocean sciences, and aquatic environments relevant to Canada. Manuscript Reports may be cited as full publications. The correct citation appears above the abstract of each report. Each report will be abstracted by Aquatic Sciences and Fisheries Abstracts and will be indexed annually in the Department's index to scientific and technical publications.

Jordan An address given to the Nanaimo Historical Society on November 18, 1969 Transcribed by Dalys Barney, Vancouver Island University Library, on February 12, 2020 William Barraclough This evening, Mrs. Jordan, I think we're going to have a real historical talk about Captain George Vancouver. And I'm sure we're looking forwards, anticipating, a good address, Mrs. Jordan. And, ladies and gentlemen, our president of British Columbia Historical Association, Mrs. Jordan. [applause] M.E. Jordan Thank you, Mr. Barraclough. With the audience's permission, I think I could do just as well if I sit down. Would the audience permit me to be seated? Thank you. It certainly is a real pleasure and an honour to be here this evening. And to have the privilege of speaking to you. You're a very active group, and a very progressive member society of our association, and I take this opportunity to congratulate you on your many accomplishments. This evening, I've had the privilege of going up to see your Centennial Museum, and I was just absolutely delighted. I didn't realize it was such a lovely project. Mr. Parker was kind enough to take me up and Mr. Barraclough, because the hours were unsuitable for me. I really appreciate this. Before I begin my address, I'd like to say that I'm sure the members of the British Columbia Historical Association are really looking forward to our next annual get together here in your city.
