  • For Hurried Caregivers
    Handy Resources FOR HURRIED CAREGIVERS Guide for CAREGIVERS OF SENIORS IN THE ESTRIE REGION Acknowledgments The Table de concertation des aînés de l’Estrie (regional roundtable on seniors) is proud to present caregivers in Estrie with this directory, which should serve as a handy guide for a long time to come. The roundtable would like to thank all those who contributed in so many ways to developing this guide for the benefit of caregivers. Many thanks, in particular, to all those who have taken part in our Advisory Committee, namely France Lebrun, Caroline Giguère, Geneviève Côté, Jacinthe Garant, Marie-Ève Nadeau, Marie-Pierre Laurent, Michel Couillard, Sylvia Wheeler, Julie Grenier, Ginette Mercier, Christine Meunier and Louise Tremblay. Thank you for your continued dedication throughout the process. Special thanks go to the one hundred or so consulted caregivers who provided us with insight into the various dimensions of the guide’s production. We would also like to thank our project leaders Micheline Bouchard and Géraldine Lansiaux, as well as Fanie Lebrun, who supported the project during the leadership transition period. This guide was produced with the financial participation of L’APPUI pour les proches aidants d’aînés de l’Estrie and the region’s seven territorial roundtables on seniors. Background This regional guide for caregivers of seniors is the result of regional coordination between organizations that provide services to caregivers, on one hand, and the region’s roundtables on seniors, on the other. Over the years, guides have been produced in a number of Estrie’s MRCs, but none had comprehensively covered the services available throughout the region.

  • 2.6 Settlement Along the Ottawa River
    INTRODUCTION 76 2.6 Settlement Along the Ottawa River In spite of the 360‐metre drop of the Ottawa Figure 2.27 “The Great Kettle”, between its headwaters and its mouth, the river has Chaudiere Falls been a highway for human habitation for thousands of years. First Nations Peoples have lived and traded along the Ottawa for over 8000 years. In the 1600s, the fur trade sowed the seeds for European settlement along the river with its trading posts stationed between Montreal and Lake Temiskaming. Initially, French and British government policies discouraged settlement in the river valley and focused instead on the lucrative fur trade. As a result, settlement did not occur in earnest until the th th late 18 and 19 centuries. The arrival of Philemon Source: Archives Ontario of Wright to the Chaudiere Falls and the new British trend of importing settlers from the British Isles marked the beginning of the settlement era. Farming, forestry and canal building complemented each other and drew thousands of immigrants with the promise of a living wage. During this period, Irish, French Canadians and Scots arrived in the greatest numbers and had the most significant impact on the identity of the Ottawa Valley, reflected in local dialects and folk music and dancing. Settlement of the river valley has always been more intensive in its lower stretches, with little or no settlement upstream of Lake Temiskaming. As the fur trade gave way to farming, settlers cleared land and encroached on First Nations territory. To supplement meagre agricultural earnings, farmers turned to the lumber industry that fuelled the regional economy and attracted new waves of settlers.
