With that end in view brief sketches are also given of the history of Prince Albert, Battleford, and the other settlements. Had circumstances permitted more space would have been devoted to this latter subject Advertisements of the different business interests in the District are also included, and reference is made to the ranching and other industries. A view of Battleford, I regret to say, is not included among the others, owing to the fact that I was unable to secure a good photograph of that town. Steps will be taken, however, to do Battleford full justice in the next edition of this book. As is always the case with the first edition of a work of this kind, a few omissions and typographical en-ors have occurred. The former con- sist principally of some facts in the history of Prince Albert and Battle- ford, and were the result of an effort to condense ; the latter are of no consequence. Those who have spent a number of years in the Saskatchewan district, are conversant with its great natural advantages, and take an interest in its development, cannot fail to look upon this book, with all its short- comings, as destined to accomplish, to some extent at least, the objects for which it is published. As for myself, I yield to no man in admiration for the Saskatchewan country and in faith in its future agricultural and commercial pre-eminence. To our Board of Trade, particularly the worthy President, and other officers ; and Mr. James Scott, of Qu'Appelle, Assa., who have rendered me valuable assistance, I beg to tender my sincere thanks.

  • A STUDY of MIGRATING ROSS GEESE in WESTERN SASKATCHEWAN by ALEX DZUBIN
    Nov., 1965 511 A STUDY OF MIGRATING ROSS GEESE IN WESTERN SASKATCHEWAN By ALEX DZUBIN The Ross Goose (Chen r&i) was, until recently, considered a very rare and endangered species throughout much of western North America. Its limited breeding ground in the Perry River district, Northwest Territories, Canada, its narrow but traditional migration lane from Lake Athabasca, through Alberta and along the Rock- ies to Montana, and its restricted wintering area in the Central Valley of California made it a unique species of particular concern to conservationists. Although a pro- tected bird from 1931 to 1963, small numbers of Ross Geese were taken inadvertently by hunters, both on the Canadian prairies and on the Californian wintering grounds. The total population prior to 1955 was estimated at only 6,000 (Morse, 1963). Within the last decade the indicated status of this species has been much improved (Jahn et al., 1963). Some apparent shifts in migration lanes have occurred, and a general increase in numbers has been noted east of the traditional migration route in Canada. The purpose of this paper is to document the transposition of one of the major migra- tion pathways into western Saskatchewan, evaluate the birds’ present status, and de- scribe the recent reproductive successof the population. ACKNOWLEDGMENTS Many individuals of various state, federal, and provincial agencies contributed generously to the compilation of distribution records. I am particularly indebted to John Lynch, United States Fish and Wildlife Service, who helped initiate the study, provided unpublished data, and criticized the manuscript. David Marshall delineated the wintering areas and reviewed the manuscript.

  • CCS Potential in the Heavy Oil Regions of Saskatchewan and Alberta FOREWORD
    CCS Potential in the Heavy Oil Regions of Saskatchewan and Alberta FOREWORD The Petroleum Technology Research Centre is investigating the possibility of companies using captured CO2 from sources within the heavy oil district of Alberta and Saskatchewan, along with external sources such as the Alberta Carbon Trunk Line, to enhance the sustainable development of heavy oil resources in the region. Where utilization in the oil reservoir is not possible and where operators are looking to reduce or eliminate the greenhouse gas emissions intensity of their operations, this study will also suggest alternative formations and scenarios that allow for the secure long-term storage of CO2. A review of the geology of the region, past and existing research into solvent injection technologies for heavy oil, and previous PTRC research on the measurement and monitoring of CO2 in oil fields and deep saline sandstone formations will also be discussed. Finally, recommendations and next steps for realizing the potential for CO2 storage in the Lloydminster area will be made. 2 INTRODUCTION TO CHALLENGES IN THE HEAVY OIL ZONE The heavy oil regions in the Lloydminster area (see Figure 1) in both Saskatchewan and Alberta contain an estimated 55 billion barrels of original oil in place (OOIP). The primary production in these regions has been predominantly Cold Heavy Oil Production with Sand (CHOPS). CHOPS is a method where down-hole screw pumps are used to produce a slurry of sand and oil, and while the technology has increased production in the region, it has only been able to produce about 8 to 10% of the OOIP.

  • The Puzzle of the Morrissette-Arcand Clan: a History of Metis Historic and Intergenerational Trauma
    The Puzzle of the Morrissette-Arcand Clan: A History Of Metis Historic and Intergenerational Trauma by Jesse Thistle A thesis presented to the University of Waterloo in fulfillment of the thesis requirement for the degree of Master of Arts in History Waterloo, Ontario, Canada, 2016 © Jesse Thistle 2016 Author’s Declaration I hereby declare that I am the sole author of this thesis. This is a true copy of the thesis, including any required final revisions, as accepted by my examiners. I understand that my thesis may be made electronically available to the public. ii Abstract This thesis explores how members of the Morrissette-Arcand clan, a Metis road allowance family from Saskatchewan, endured intergenerational trauma since being displaced from Red River in the 1870s. It frames Metis history using Maria Campbell’s metaphor of a kinship puzzle, one that was intact before colonization and scattered after 1869. Accordingly, it shows how the Metis suffered repeated attacks on their free trade economy, sovereignty, and mobility following the transference of Rupertsland to Canada. These pillars, contends this thesis, formed the basis of nineteenth-century Metis society from its inception during the rise of Metis peoplehood (1780–1821), into a period of increased prosperity of Metis life (1821–1869), and ending with the dispossession period (1869–1980). Oral history interviews, newspaper articles, census material, scrip records, Hudson’s Bay Company and Northwest Company fur trade journals as well as genealogical research, secondary monographs, journal articles, and online web resources are used to tell the two-hundred-year history of the Morrissette-Arcand clan.

  • An Historical Introduction to Metis Claims in Canada 1
    AN HISTORICAL INTRODUCTION TO METIS CLAIMS IN CANADA 1 JOHN LEONARD TAYLOR, 24 Fern Avenue, Ottawa, Ontario, Canada, K1Y 3S1. ABSTRACT/RESUME The author reviews the history of Metis claims in Canada, and of government actions since 1870 in which Metis aboriginal rights are recognized. In his con- clusion he notes that, although the Metis are included in only two numbered treaties, on the other hand their eligibility is an integral part of the recent Agreements in Quebec. L'auteur présente un tableau historique général des revendications des Métis au Canada, et des décisions gouvernementales depuis 1870 dans lesquelles les droits aborigènes de cette population sont reconnus. Dans sa conclusion, il constate que, bien qu'il soit question des Métis seulement dans deux traités numérotés, en revanche leur admissibilité fait partie intégrante des conventions récentes au Québec. THE CANADIAN JOURNAL OF NATIVE STUDIES III, 1(1983): 151-181 152 JOHN LEONARD TAYLOR As Metis claims are based upon aboriginal title to the soil they share the same origins as Indian and Inuit claims. 2 Historically, Metis claims took a divergent line after 1870 when the Dominion Government dealt with the Manitoba Metis in a way which at once recognized their claim to share in the aboriginal title and yet departed from the established principles of British North American Indian policy. Before examining this departure, it would be helpful to set out very briefly what had been the traditional Indian policy and the circumstances which led to the departure from it which section 31 of the Manitoba Act represented. By the eighteenth century British practice in North America had been to recognize an aboriginal interest in the soft which at least amounted to a right of use.

From the 1860s to 1880s, state definitions of Metis status, as well as government recognition and non‐recognition of Metis identity, had a profound impact on the Plains Metis.
