  • Community Development in Rainy River First Nations: a Study of Self
    Community Development in Rainy River First Nations: A Study of Self- Sufficiency and Land-Culture by Gordon Lyle Blackburde A Thesis submitted to the Faculty of Graduate Studies of The University of Manitoba in partial fulfilment of the requirements of the degree of MASTER OF ARTS Department of Native Studies University of Manitoba Winnipeg Copyright © 2013 by Gordon Lyle Blackburde Abstract Due to government intervention the inhabitants of Rainy River First Nations were deprived of the material resources available to many Canadians. In 1914, the federal government established a community reserve that consisted of peoples from eight separate and distinct communities, which directly contravened Treaty Three. The paper (through interviews, observation and textual analysis) provides a critical overview of the community's land claims settlement and reclamation process, and struggle for sustainability in the twenty-first century. In addition, it examines the manner that land- culture, human resources and capital resources may be applied to revitalize the community through community development and economic strategies.

  • An Assessment of the Groundwater Resources of Northern Ontario
    Hydrogeology of Ontario Series (Report 2) AN ASSESSMENT OF THE GROUNDWATER RESOURCES OF NORTHERN ONTARIO AREAS DRAINING INTO HUDSON BAY, JAMES BAY AND UPPER OTTAWA RIVER BY S. N. SINGER AND C. K. CHENG ENVIRONMENTAL MONITORING AND REPORTING BRANCH MINISTRY OF THE ENVIRONMENT TORONTO ONTARIO 2002 KK PREFACE This report provides a regional assessment of the groundwater resources of areas draining into Hudson Bay, James Bay, and the Upper Ottawa River in northern Ontario in terms of the geologic conditions under which the groundwater flow systems operate. A hydrologic budget approach was used to assess precipitation, streamflow, baseflow, and potential and actual evapotranspiration in seven major basins in the study area on a monthly, annual and long-term basis. The report is intended to provide basic information that can be used for the wise management of the groundwater resources in the study area. Toronto, July 2002.

P.13 Trent Severn Arch Sites p.14 2 Huronia Chert Chase by Tom Mohr Early November was marked by another Chert Chase conducted by POAS Chapter V.P. Bill Fox, with Tom Mohr accompanying him. This time out though, the hunters included …well…Jamie Hunter ‐ Huronia Chapter Vice President, Director of the Huronia Museum, and our guide for the day. The quarry? Actually, there were five of them, all located in the classic Huronia area between Waubaushene and Penetanguishene. In a previous outing to Balsam Lake’s Grand Island, our sought‐after toolstone was located in seams of Ordovician limestone (see Strata Six for details). Our marching orders on this chilly November morning presented a different strategy. Stated Bill, “We will be wandering the exposed faces of these quarries looking for chert pebbles in an effort to obtain reference collection hand specimens of "Huronia chert" from the lower member of the Gull River Formation, and to develop a general understanding of the geographic distribution and density of these secondary deposits.” So, we began examining what our pal Lisa Sonnenburg would likely call ‘glacial puke’. Did I mention that hunting season had recently opened and that every site we visited was enhanced by the sound of gunfire? At the first occurrence, Bill strode to the edge of a cliff, where far below a couple of hunters were sighting‐in their weapons.

  • Checklist of Fishes of Thunder Bay District, Ontario
    Thunder Bay Field Naturalists Checklist of Fish es of Thunder Bay District , Ontario 31 December 2019 Introduction This first edition of Checklist of Fishes of Thunder Bay District adds to existing checklists prepared by members of the Thunder Bay Field Naturalists (TBFN) covering other vertebrate taxa (mammals, birds, reptiles & amphibians), as well vascular plants, butterflies, and odonates. As with these other checklists, it covers the official judicial District of Thunder Bay (Figure 1). The District extends from the eastern border of Quetico Provincial Park east to White River, and from the international border north to Lake St. Joseph and the Albany River. Much of the District (60%) is within the Great Lakes watershed, with the remaining draining into the Arctic Ocean either north via the Hudson Bay Lowlands, or west via Rainy Lake/Lake of the Woods and the Nelson River watershed. Figure 1. Judicial District of Thunder Bay with primary watersheds and protected areas. 2 The fish species of the Thunder Bay District mostly reflect post-glacial colonization, modified by more recent ecological and anthropogenic influences. The Wisconsinan ice mass began to retreat north of Lake Superior circa 10,700 BP (Farrand and Drexler 1985), allowing fish to initially colonize the Thunder Bay area (Momot and Stephenson 1996). The Marquette advance circa 9900 BP likely wiped out these early colonizers, but its retreat around 9700 BP allowed many species access from glacial refugia in the Mississippi River basin to the south (Mandrak and Crossman 1992b; Stephenson and Momot 1994). Some species invaded from the east via the outlet of Lake Minong and Lake Superiors’ other post-glacial predecessors.

  • Archaeological Investigations at the Site of the Longlac Historic Trading
    DAWSON: LONGLAC TRADING POST 3 KENNETHC.A.DAWSON (ACCEPTED DECEMBER 1967) ARCHAEOLOGICAL INVESTIGATIONS AT THESITEOF THE LONGLAC HISTORIC TRADING POST THUNDER BAY DISTRICT, ONTARIO INTRODUCTION The purpose of this report is to present the evidence from an archaeological excavation of the historic longlac trading post site, carried out in 1964. Longlac was evidently an early French trading post, built at the north end of Long Lake, and the predecessor of a North West Company post and of a later Hudson's Bay Company post at that place. It received but brief mention in contemporary literature. Although Long Lake was an important area in the westward expansion of the fur trade, no detailed critical history of it has been written. For this reason, the historical facts have been sketched here in order to provide some background to the fur trading activities in the area between Lake Superior and James Bay along the Albany River route, and hence to an understanding of the archaeological record. No claim is made, however, to a critical evaluation of these facts. The report describes the site and the artifacts, and summarizes the archaeological field work. Since the artifacts relate apparently to three traditions at the site, they are of inestimable importance, and since it was not easy to arrange those of European origin, a functional classification was made, following closely that used in the River Basin Surveys. (Woolworth and Wood, 1960). HISTORICAL BACKGROUND The historical records, (Thwaites, 1901; Crouse, 1930), suggest that the area was well known to the French from the middle of the seventeenth century.

  • Task 3 Neil Fulton
    REPORT ON POTENTIAL MEASURES TO ALLEVIATE PROBLEMS CREATED BY CtIFWNT HIGH LAKE LEVELS TASK 3 DIVERSIONS MANAGEMENT ,.l -. TO THE INTERNATIONAL JOINT CCXMISSICPJ FROM TASK GROUP MEMBERS GERALD MACMILLXY DON LEONARD RM; GOLDING BILL DALEY MAC ODELL BILL ERDLE PETER YEE . NEIL FULTON SEPTEMBER 1987 EXExmTIVE SUMMARY The Governments of Canada and the United States requested, in August 1986, that the International Joint 'Commission study methods of alleviating the adverse consequences of fluctuating Great Lakes water levels. Part of this study entailed an immediate short-term investigation of methods of alleviating the present high water level crisis. One of the elements of the short-term investigation was a study of diversions management and the results are contained herein. The theoretical maximum flow through the Welland Canal in an extreme crisis situation was estimated to be 12,000 cubic feet per second (cfs). The most significant physical impacts of this maximum flow would be the complete disruption of navigation between Lake Ontario and the upper lakes and the possibility of major damage to the canal itself. A reduction in Lake Erie levels of 1.3 inches would be achieved. The Ogoki and Long Lac Diversions can be closed completely but, because of significant social impacts associated with the closure of the Long Lac Diversion, a.scenario involving a combined annual diversion flow of 800 cfs was investigated to determine the benefits foregone by maintaining the log-driving operation from Long Lake. The most significant physical impacts were the direct loss of 2,500 jobs in the Terrace Bay - Longlac area resulting from the closure of the Kimberly-Clark pulp mill in Terrace Bay due to complete closure of Long Lac Diversion, and the reduction in livelihood and alteration in way of life for local populations associated with the closure of both diversions.
