    Ecosystem Overview and Assessment Report for the Bras D'or Lakes

    Ecosystem Overview and Assessment Report for the Bras d’Or Lakes, Nova Scotia M. Parker, M. Westhead, P. Doherty and J. Naug Oceans and Habitat Branch Maritimes Region Fisheries and Oceans Canada Bedford Institute of Oceanography PO Box 1006 Dartmouth, Nova Scotia B2Y 4A2 2007 Canadian Manuscript Report of Fisheries and Aquatic Sciences 2789 Canadian Manuscript Report of Fisheries and Aquatic Sciences Manuscript reports contain scientific and technical information that contributes to existing knowledge but which deals with national or regional problems. Distribution is restricted to institutions or individuals located in particular regions of Canada. However, 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 and aquatic sciences. Manuscript reports may be cited as full publications. The correct citation appears above the abstract of each report. Each report is abstracted in Aquatic Sciences and Fisheries Abstracts and indexed in the Department’s annual index to scientific and technical publications. Numbers 1–900 in this series were issued as Manuscript Reports (Biological Series) of the Biological Board of Canada, and subsequent to 1937 when the name of the Board was changed by Act of Parliament, as Manuscript Reports (Biological Series) of the Fisheries Research Board of Canada. Numbers 901–1425 were issued as Manuscript Reports of the Fisheries Research Board of Canada. Numbers 1426–1550 were issued as Department of Fisheries and the Environment, Fisheries and Marine Service Manuscript Reports. The current series name was changed with report number 1551. Manuscript reports are produced regionally but are numbered nationally.

    Na’teliaq October 2018 L’nuta’ql Brings Together the Largest Collection of Mi’kmaw Recording Artists in One Show On Sunday October 28th, a Mi’kmaw Music Showcase held in Membertou Nova Scotia brought together the largest collection of Mi’kmaw recording artists ever assembled in one show. The showcase was titled “L’nuta’ql” or “it sounds indigenous”. The idea behind the L'nuta'ql Music Showcase project was to create incentives and inspire artists to begin writing, recording and performing music featuring the Mi’kmaw language. “All the recording artists recognized that we all need to do more for the language, including creating new music in the Mi’kmaw Language,” stated Artist director and co producer Jaime Battiste. “That was the main reason why many agreed to be a part of the Mi’kmaw Music Showcase” “Our language is in crisis. We have less then a third of t h e M i ’ k m a w n a t i o n a b l e t o s p e a k o u r language”, said Chief Leroy Denny, Chair of Mi’kmaw Kina’matnewey, a major sponsor of the showcase. “We need to create incentives and more visibility of the language”. 1 L’nuta’ql (Continued) In July, a contest was created asking aspiring artists to submit their music in hopes of winning a chance to perform during the showcase and record in a professional studio. The winner of the contest was SHiFT FROM THA 902, an up and coming hip hop artist with a hard, raw style driven flow.
