Summary Introduction A 30 km stretch of well-exposed bedrock on the Bedrock outcrops accessible southwestern coast of Hudson Bay, near Churchill, from Churchill, Manitoba, were Manitoba, was thoroughly examined for erosional ice- visited during summer 2011 to look for bedrock-inscribed fl ow indicators. Low-lying Churchill quartzite outcrops ice-fl ow evidence. This project was initiated because inland and higher rocky bluffs near the shoreline preserve recent mapping in the nearby Great Island–Kellas Lake a complex palimpsest record of whaleback drumlins and area (Trommelen et al., 2010) has shown that the ice-fl ow roches moutonnées commonly grooved in numerous record was signifi cantly more complex than previously orientations. Crosscutting relationships and position on mapped. Questions arose regarding the behaviour of the bedrock outcrops suggest ice fl owed over time to the Laurentide Ice Sheet (LIS), especially in the Churchill area north-northwest to northwest→south→west→east-sout (Figure GS-3-1), where it has been suspected that paleoice heast→southeast→south→southwest→west-southwest fl owed from both the Keewatin Sector to the northwest with late deglacial fl ow between east and east-southeast and the Quebec-Labrador region to the east (Shilts, 1980; and west and northwest. These ice-fl ow indicators likely Boulton and Clark, 1990; Dredge and Nixon, 1992). The record more than just the late Wisconsinan glaciation and presence of complex ice-fl ow indicators at Churchill were were formed by a mix of Keewatin and Quebec-Labrador hinted at in Dredge (1992) but never mapped in detail ice sources.

He spent the winter of 1792‐93 with a group of Piikani hunting buffalo in the foothills SW of Calgary. These were remarkable journeys. The river brigade travelled more than 2000 km in 80 days, hauling heavy loads, moving upstream almost all the way. With the Piikani, Fidler witnessed hunts at sites that archaeologists have since studied intensively. On both trips his assignment was to map the fur-trade route from Hudson Bay to the Rocky Mountains. Fidler kept two journals, one for the river trip and one for his circuit with the Piikani. The freshness and immediacy of these journals are a great part of their appeal. They are filled with descriptions of regional landscapes, hunting and trading, Native and fur-trade cultures, all of them reflecting a young man’s sense of adventure as he crossed the continent. But there is noth- ing naive or spontaneous about these remarks. The journals are transcripts of his route survey, the first stages of a map to be sent to the company’s head office in London.

INDEX SAMUEL HEARNE SAMUEL HEARNE “A YANKEE IN CANADA”: I got home this Thursday evening, having spent just one week in Canada and travelled eleven hundred miles. The whole expense of this journey, including two guidebooks and a map, which cost one dollar twelve and a half cents, was twelve dollars seventy five cents. I do not suppose that I have seen all British America; that could not be done by a cheap excursion, unless it were a cheap excursion to the Icy Sea, as seen by Hearne or McKenzie, and then, no doubt, some interesting features would be omitted. I wished to go a little way behind that word Canadense, of which naturalists make such frequent use; and I should like still right well to make a longer excursion on foot through the wilder parts of Canada, which perhaps might be called Iter Canadense.

Cam Elliott Superintendent, Wapusk National Park & Manitoba North National Historic Sites Usually people don’t view the implementation of new rules and regulations as a reason to rejoice, but in the case of the Wapusk National Park Use Regulations, which came into effect on March 26, 2010, there is reason to celebrate. The Wapusk regulations are unique in Canada’s national park system. By allowing certain activities customarily prohibited in other national parks, they reflect and respect the unique history and traditional local use of the Wapusk National Park (NP) lands. The commitment to the distinct local use of Wapusk NP was made by the Government of Canada in the Federal- Provincial Agreement to Establish Wapusk National Park, an agreement that grew out of public consultations in the Churchill area. Certain activities are generally prohibited in national parks: hunting, trapping, gathering natural products from the land, using all terrain vehicles to access park lands, and using cabins to support these activities. However, the Wapusk Park Establishment Agreement (1996) recognizes these as traditional user activities for the longtime residents of Churchill at the time the agreement was signed. Aboriginal and treaty rights in the park, Picking berries continuation of traditional use of park lands by First Nation Photo: Parks Canada 1 people, and continuing specified traditional uses of park lands and resources by eligible non-Aboriginal people are Parks Canada Plans outlined in the agreement and are allowed through the park use regulations.

  • Dene Involvement in the Fort Churchill Fur Trade Market Economy – a World Systems Theory Application
    Dene Involvement in the Fort Churchill Fur Trade Market Economy – A World Systems Theory Application by Lisa Corinne Bobbie A Thesis submitted to the Faculty of Graduate Studies of The University of Manitoba In partial fulfillment of the requirements of the degree of MASTER OF ARTS Department of Anthropology University of Manitoba Winnipeg Copyright © 2012 by Lisa Corrine Bobbie Abstract A significant change has occurred over the last forty years in the way archaeological and historical studies have perceived the way Aboriginal groups participated in the Western fur trade, from outdated portrayal of subordinate to a more accurate role as equal partner. A diachronic examination of Fort Churchill Trade Shop (IeKn-61) in northern Manitoba will provide a case study through which the Dene contributed to the market economy of the fur trade while maintaining their traditional modes of subsistence based around the migratory caribou herds of the subarctic. Employing world-systems theory, which attempts to relive the old patterns of thinking, would indicate that the Dene would abandon their central socio-economic on the caribou in favour of the new market economy focused on fur-bearers and European trade goods. However, aspects of this theory show the interconnectedness of the system from which follows that a partnership and control could be held by peripheral groups. A comprehensive analysis using historical, ethnographical and archaeological data sets are employed to determine the presence and degree of participation of the Dene at Fort Churchill through the 19th century. This examination using multiple lines of evidence provides an opportunity for a deeper understanding of Dene decision-making processes.

  • Parks Canada Manuscript Report Series
    Parks Canada Manuscript Report Series by C.J. TAYLOR~ The Manuscript Report Series (MRS) is a collection of about 350 titles (to date) on a variety of Canadian historical subjects. Written reports are a major product of the more than 100 historians, archaeologists and contract re- searchers who work for the five regional offices of Parks Canada and for Research division of its National Historic Parks and Sites Branch in Ottawa and many of these reports end up in the MRS. The series is already large enough to warrant the attention of those interested in Canadian history yet it is not well known beyond the realm of Parks Canada. This situation is partly due to the fact that the series is not a publication and is therefore not advertised or widely distributed and partly because most of the titles are specialised research studies relating directly to historic site. Still, there is an abundance of material that could have a wider use even though some of these reports have been, or will be, published. And it is this wider use of the MRS as an unpublished gov- ernment document that is of particular concern to the archivist. The purpose of the MRS is to disseminate historic sites research to Parks Canada staff. Originally, manuscript reports written by staff historians and archaeologists were kept on file and photocopies made for those within the or- ganization who required that particular research. Before the regionalization of Parks Canada, most historical and archaeological research was done by National Historic Parks and Sites Branch in Ottawa which by the mid-1960s had a large staff assigned to various projects concerned with sites across the ~ountry.~Each manuscript was given to the Research Division records clerk who assigned it a number and placed it on file.

    Exploring the Egg Lake /?Eghés tu Landscape and the Lake One Trail A Collaboration with Knowledge Holders in Wood Buffalo National Park By Laura Peterson A thesis submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts Faculty of Native Studies University of Alberta © Laura Peterson, 2018 ii Abstract Wood Buffalo National Park (WBNP) was established in the 1920s as a bison sanctuary, and since then it has received major recognition for its wildlife resources, including designations as a UNESCO World Heritage Site and a Ramsar site. But, there has been no formal recognition of its significant cultural heritage. Yet the lands of the park are criss-crossed by multiple overland Aboriginal trails that link together the settlements and areas of land use in the region, and the region itself to other parts of northern Alberta and the Northwest Territories (NWT). The goal of my research was to show how the park’s cultural heritage and values are just as important as its natural values. I do this by using a collaborative approach with local Cree and Chipewyan residents and a Parks Canada archaeologist to document one of the traditional trails in the park and the cultural meanings and stories associated with it. My thesis will discuss this project, consider what this trail research can reveal about the Aboriginal cultural landscape of a northern national park, and more broadly, propose a framework for a revised UNESCO commemorative statement that includes culture. iii Preface This thesis is an original work by Laura Peterson. As a collaborative project working with knowledge holders, the author’s main objective was to listen and learn from the elder’s, record their stories and experiences, and to share this information in the most appropriate and respectful way.
