THE CANADIAN HANDBOOK AND TOURIST'S GUIDE. INTRODUCTION. The Nooks and Corners of Canada, and. more especially of the Lower Province, in addition to the interest they awaken as important sources of Commercial and Agricultural wealth, are invested with no ordinary attraction for the Naturalist, the Antiquary, the Historian, and the Tourist in quest of pleasure or of health. We have often wondered why more of the venturesome spirits amongst our transatlantic friends do not tear themselves away, even for a few months, from London fogs, to visit our distant but more favoured clime. How is it that so few, comparatively speaking, come to enjoy the bracing air and bright summer skies of Canada ? With what zest could the enterprising or eccentric among them undertake a ramble, with rod and gun in hand, from Niagara to Labrador, over the Laurentian Chain of Moun- tains, choosing as rallying points, whereat to compare notes, the summit of Cape Eternity in the Saguenay district, and 6 Introduction.

  • The Mining Industry of the Province of Quebec in 1959 Emoy, ,'''
    GM 67014 THE MINING INDUSTRY OF THE PROVINCE OF QUEBEC IN 1959 EMOY, ,''' MINING INDUSTRY of the province of QUEBEC PROVINCE OF QUEBEC. CANADA DEPARTMENT OF MINES Honourable PAUL W. EARL, Minister P.-E. AUGER, Deputy Minister 4, THE MINING INDUSTRY OF THE PROVINCE OF QUEBEC IN 1959 QUEBEC 1961 GM 67014 To the Honourable Paul W. Earl, Minister of Mines, Quebec, Que. Sir: I beg to submit herewith the report entitled "The Mining Industry of the Province of Quebec in 1959". This report contains a detailed account of mining operations and statistical data for the year 1959. This report has been prepared by the technical staff of the Department. The term "production", as used throughout this report, is synonymous with "quantity sold", "shipped" or "used", and does not necessarily represent "annual output". Unless otherwise noted, the ton specified in the text and tables of this report is that of 2,000 pounds. Values are given in Canadian funds. As it would be impractical to mention in this report all those who have contributed to the mineral production of the Province, a list of the "Principal Operators and Owners of Mines and Quarries in the Province of Quebec" is published separately and brought up to date when warranted by changes of names and addresses. In addition to this annual report on the mining industry, the Department issues a "General Report of the Minister of Mines" which deals mostly with administrative matters and covers the fiscal year ending on March 31st. In order to acquaint the public, as soon as pos- sible, with the state of the mining industry, the Department publishes at the beginning of each year an interim report summarizing the progress made by the industry during the year just ended.

This order consists of all the moths and butterflies. Cutworm moths are common throughout the world. In Canada and the United States over three thousand species are represented, from the Arctic tundra to the arid deserts of southwestern United States. Many species are found in eastern North America, but the family is best represented in the mountains and on the plateaus of western North America. CLASSIFICATION AND NOMENCLATURE In zoology, classification is the systematic arrangement of animals into related groups and categories, and nomenclature is the system of names given to these groups. The cutworm moths are insects that belong in the class Insecta. Insecta is divided into several orders: Diptera, the true flies: Hymenoptera. the wasps, bees, and ants: Coleoptera. the beetles, and so on. The order Lepidoptera includes all the moths and butterflies. Each order is divided into a number of families, and the Noctuidae family, which includes all the cutworm moths, is a family of the Lepidoptera.

  • Impacts of Landscape Change on Wolf Viability in the Northeastern US and Southeastern Canada
    WILDLANDS PROJECT SPECIAL PAPER NO. 5 Bridging the gap between conservation science, practice, and policy Impacts of Landscape Change on Wolf Viability in the Northeastern U.S. and Southeastern Canada Implications for Wolf Recovery By Carlos Carroll, Ph.D. WE ARE AMBITIOUS. We live for the day when grizzlies in Chihuahua have an unbroken connection to grizzlies in Alaska; when wolf populations are restored from Mexico to the Yukon to Maine; when vast forests and flowing prairies again thrive and support their full range of native plants and animals; when humans dwell on the land with respect, humility, and affection. Toward this end, the Wildlands Project is working to restore and protect the natural heritage of North America. Through advocacy, education, scientific consultation, and cooperation with many partners, we are designing and helping create systems of interconnected wilderness areas that can sustain the diversity of life.
