  • LAKE OPEONGO the Ecology of the Fish Community and of Man’S Effects on It
    LAKE OPEONGO The Ecology of the Fish Community and of Man’s Effects on It N. V. MARTIN Research Branch Ontario Department of Lands and Forests Maple, Ontario, Canada and F. E. J. FRY Department of Zoology Ramsay Wright Zoological Laboratories University of Toronto Toronto, Ontario, Canada TECHNICAL REPORT No. 24 GREAT LAKES FISHERY COMMISSION 1451 Green Road P. 0. Box 640 Ann Arbor, Michigan March, 1973 FOREWORD This paper is one of seven lake case histories-Lake Superior, Lake Michigan, Lake Huron, Lake Erie, Lake Ontario, Lake Opeongo, and Lake Kootenay. Concise versions of these papers, together with other lake case histories developed for and by an international symposium on Salmonid Communities in Oligotrophic Lakes (SCOL) appeared in a special issue of the Journal of the Fisheries Research Board of Canada (Vol. 29, No. 6, June, 1972). While this and each of the others in this series is complete in itself, it should be remembered that each formed a part of SCOL and is supplemented by the others. Because much detail of interest to fisheries workers in the Great Lakes area would not otherwise be available, this and the other case histories revised and refined in the light of events at the symposium are published here. SCOL symposium was a major exercise in the synthesis of existing knowledge. The objective was to attempt to identify the separate and joint effects of three major stresses imposed by man: cultural eutrophication, exploitation, and species introduction on fish communities. Recently glaciated oligotrophic lakes were chosen as an “experimental set.” Within the set were lakes which have been free of stresses, lakes which have been subjected to one stress, and lakes which have been subjected to various combinations of stresses.

Settler Colonialism and the Failed-Settlement Narrative in the Ottawa-Huron Tract, 1850–1910 by Derek Murray B.A. (Honours), University of Guelph, 2007 M.A., University of Guelph, 2009 G.Cert., Learning and Teaching in Higher Education, University of Victoria, 2014 Supervisory Committee Dr. Eric W. Sager, Supervisor Department of History Dr. Lynne S. Marks, Departmental Member Department of History Dr. Peter A. Baskerville, Outside Member Department of History and Classics, University of Alberta iii Abstract In the 1850s, the government of Canada West initiated a project to colonize a vast region of the Canadian Shield known as the Ottawa-Huron Tract. Later, in his influential interpretation, Arthur Lower argued the myth of the inexorable forward movement of the settlement frontier was here shattered by a reality of lakes, rocks, and forest inherently unsuitable for farming. This refrain continues to be repeated by proponents of what I call the failed-settlement narrative.
