  • State of the Wetlands in the Lake Simcoe Watershed Ontario Streams Technical Report No
    July 2018 State of the Wetlands in the Lake Simcoe Watershed Ontario Streams Technical Report No. 2018-01 Alexander Kissel, Habitat Technician & Alice Choi, GIS Technician, Ontario Streams ontariostreams.ca Summary Wetlands in the Lake Simcoe Watershed are critical to the health of the Lake and its surrounding ecosystem. They cover 18.4% of the surface area around the Lake or 52 847 hectares (ha). About 62.4% of these wetlands have been evaluated using the Ontario Wetland Evaluation System (OWES) Southern Manual. The distribution of wetlands vary with fewer and smaller wetlands on the Oak Ridges Moraine (7.1% of surface area), the Schomberg Clay Plains (5.5%) and the uplands west of the the Lake (10.9 to 12.7%), contrasting with the larger valley and shoreline wetlands in the lowlands around the Lake (25.7%). Small wetlands play an important role particularly in the landscapes where they make up a large portion of the wetlands. A high resolution (15 centimetre pixel) analysis of aerial imagery from 1999/2002 to 2013/2016 for the Lake Simcoe Watershed has shown that many small wetland losses, and the occasional larger ones, add up over this time period to a loss of almost eight square kilometres or 773 ha (1.5% of the total wetland area). This loss is higher than previous estimates using lower resolution (30-metre pixel) satellite imagery which cannot pick out the smaller losses that have a large cumulative impact. The highest losses have been from agriculture (46.4% of all losses), following in descending order by residential (10.5%), peat extraction (10.4%), canals (9.6%), highways/roads (6.6%), industrial/commercial (5.7%), fill (4.6%), dug-out ponds (4.3%), recreation (1.6%) and aggregates (0.3%).

  • Newmarket's History
    A Brief History of the Town of Newmarket In June, 1800, Timothy Rogers, a Vermont Quaker, explored the area around the Holland River and up to Lake Simcoe to find a suitable location for a contemplated Quaker settlement. The Quakers were disturbed as a result of difficulties encountered when this peaceful sect refused to take part in the rioting and bloodshed of the American Revolutionists. In 1801, Rogers, leading several Quaker families, left their homes in Vermont and Pennsylvania and secured land grants of 8,000 acres located at the east end of lots 93, 94, and 95 along Yonge Street in the former Townships of Whitchurch and King. It was easy for them to see the potential in these fertile rolling lands, through which flowed the Holland River, an important trading artery for both aboriginals and fur traders. Having arrived in the spring, these first Quaker settlers immediately began the arduous task of clearing the land for their homes and farms. Indeed, By Christmas of 1801, Joseph Hill had constructed a mill on the Holland River at what is now Fairy Lake, around which the settlement to be known as Newmarket sprouted. Over the years, Mr. Hill Hill Trading Post, also built a tannery and the first store and house, as well Main and Water Streets, as additional mills. It is unfortunate that this enterprising 1801 man, embittered over the terms of an 1804 sale of the north half of lot 93 to Elisha Beman, returned saddened and disappointed to the United States in 1812. Elisha Beman, through his marriage to Esther Sayre Robinson, the widow of Christopher Robinson, a distinguished United Empire Loyalist and member of the Legislative Assembly, gained an entree to the establishment and preferential treatment through the Family Compact.

  • East Gwillimbury Heights Neighbourhood AL
    East Gwillimbury Heights Neighbourhood AL The early years matter… they set the foundation for lifelong learning, behaviour and health… There is increasing worldwide attention on the importance of child development in the early years. Healthy child development has been identified by both the World Health Organization and the Public Health Agency of Canada as a powerful social determinant of lifelong health and well-being. The early years (0-6) represent the most significant period of growth and development throughout life. The quality of stimulation in a child’s early environment and the availability of appropriate early childhood experiences are essential to healthy child development. A lack of positive early learning and development opportunities can have lasting negative impacts on a child. A child’s development is shaped by many factors including, but not limited to, the following: Child Variables Family Variables Neighbourhood Variables • Age • Family structure • Libraries, recreation facilities, health • Gender • Family income services, parks and playgrounds, arts • Childhood health • English as a second language and cultural programs, family resource • Preschool experiences • Education of parents/caregivers centres, etc. • Parenting/caregiving style • Neighbourhood safety and cohesion • Cultural background • Availability of high quality early learning • Daily reading with child and child care settings The Early Development Instrument (EDI) is a community-based measure of young children’s developmental health and early learning… It is a questionnaire that senior kindergarten teachers complete for all children in their classrooms. It is a population measure that is based on developmental rather than curriculum benchmarks. It assesses five general areas, known as domains, of child development and their subdomains.
