Newfoundland & Labrador Newfoundland & Labrador July 5th to 16th, 2018 11 nights, 12 days Summary Itinerary This is Eastern Canada’s greatest destination. Nowhere else in all of our great Nation will you find as much warmth among its people as you will on this tour. Stand on Signal Hill and view one of the greatest city harbors in all of North America. Sail across the strait of Belle-Isle and step back a few hundred years to the era of the great whale hunts. Drive along the South arm of Gros Morne National Park. Visit the North American Viking landing site. Enjoy a traditional screech-in ceremony with the locals. Be prepared to fall under the spell of true Newfoundland hospitality. Thursday, July 5th Day 1 Sydney Meet your transfer Driver from Charlottetown, Borden and Aulac and travel to Moncton to meet your Tour Director and fellow travellers. Today we will cross the Canso Causeway onto Cape Breton Island, home to the Barra McNeils, the late Rita MacNeil, The Rankins, Natalie McMaster and many more Celtic music icons. You will overnight in the harbour city of Sydney. Friday, July 6th Day 2 Sydney to Port Aux Basques Your Newfoundland adventure begins this morning boarding the Northumberland Ferry which will cross the Cabot Strait and dock at Channel-Port Aux Basques in the late afternoon.

Newfoundland & Labrador July 2018 1 Sunday, July 8th Day 4 Plum Point to L’Anse-Au-Clair It is your second ferry ride this morning, crossing the Strait of Belle Isle and Iceberg Alley to the shores of Labrador, the other part of Newfoundland. You will visit Red Bay, a small community steeped in the history of the Basque Whaling industry that thrived along the coast over 400 years ago. Red Bay is the home of the whaling industry museums that connect visitors with the ancient traditions, folklore, along with the ancients crafts that continue to exist today. The museum will also reveal the gripping story of the oil-laden San Juan that sank in 33 feet of water in Red Bay. And then there are the tangy baked apples fashioned into a pie, the locals call them “cloud berries” – a lumpy-looking golden fruit that grows in profusion in southern Labrador. Lessons in sea lore, sea-washed scenery, down-home hospitality and good food sum up this day beautifully. Monday, July 9th Day 5 L’Anse-Au-Clair to Plum Point This morning takes you back across the Strait of Belle Isle to visit the UNESCO World Heritage Viking site at L’Anse-aux-Meadows, site of the first European settlement in North America where you will experience true Viking lifestyle of 1000 years ago.

  • Micmac Migration to Western Newfoundland
    MICMAC MIGRATION TO WESTERN NEWFOUNDLAND DENNIS A. BARTELS Department of Anthropology Sir Wilfred Grenfell College Memorial University of Newfoundland Corner Brook, Newfoundland Canada, and OLAF UWE JANZEN Department of History Sir Wilfred Grenfell College Memorial University of Newfoundland Corner Brook, Newfoundland Canada, ABSTRACT / RESUME The Micmac of Cape Breton are known to have had a long history of seasonal contact with Newfoundland. It is generally accepted that they resided there permanently by the early 19th century. The authors review the available evidence and conclude that the permanent occupation of Newfoundland by the Micmac began in the 1760s. On sait que les Micmac de cap-Breton ont eu une longue histoire du contact saisonnier avec la Terre-Neuve. Il est généralement admis qu'ils y habitèrent en permanence au début du XIXe siècle. Les auteurs examinent l'évidence disponible et concluent que l'occupation permanente de la Terre-Neuve par les Micmac a commencé dans les années 1760. 72 Dennis A. Bartel/Olaf Uwe Janzen INTRODUCTION It is generally conceded that the Micmac of Cape Breton Island were a maritime-adapted people with sufficient seafaring skills to extend their territorial range as far into the Gulf of St. Lawrence as the Magdalen Islands and as far east as St. Pierre and Miquelon.1 By the eighteenth century, the Micmac were able to maintain a persistent presence in southern and southwestern Newfoundland. Some scholars have concluded from this that southwestern Newfoundland could have been a regular part of the territorial range of the Cape Breton Micmac since prehistoric times.2 In the absence of archaeological evidence to support such a conclusion, others, such as Marshall (1988) and Upton (1979:64) are unwilling to concede more than a seasonal exploitation of Newfoundland.

    Remembrance Series The Battle of the Gulf of St. Lawrence Photographs courtesy of Library and Archives Canada (LAC) and the Department of National Defence (DND). © Her Majesty the Queen in Right of Canada represented by the Minister of Veterans Affairs, 2005. Cat. No. V32-84/2005 ISBN 0-662-69036-2 Printed in Canada The Battle of the Gulf of St. Lawrence Generations of Canadians have served our country and the world during times of war, military conflict and peace. Through their courage and sacrifice, these men and women have helped to ensure that we live in freedom and peace, while also fostering freedom and peace around the world. The Canada Remembers Program promotes a greater understanding of these Canadians’ efforts and honours the sacrifices and achievements of those who have served and those who supported our country on the home front. The program engages Canadians through the following elements: national and international ceremonies and events including Veterans’ Week activities, youth learning opportunities, educational and public information materials (including on-line learning), the maintenance of international and national Government of Canada memorials and cemeteries (including 13 First World War battlefield memorials in France and Belgium), and the provision of funeral and burial services. Canada’s involvement in the First and Second World Wars, the Korean War, and Canada’s efforts during military operations and peace efforts has always been fuelled by a commitment to protect the rights of others and to foster peace and freedom. Many Canadians have died for these beliefs, and many others have dedicated their lives to these pursuits.

  • CABOT's LANDFALL by C
    _J_ CABOT'S LANDFALL By C. B. FERGUSSON HILE the profound importance and the far-reaching consequences of the discovery of N ortb America by John Cabot in 1497 have long been realized, and in W some measure recognized, his landfall in the New World still remains unmarked. T hat is actually so. But it in­ dicates neither a lack of interest in doing honour to a distin­ guished navigator for his outstanding services, nor a paucity of those who have urged the marking of his landfall or advanced claims with respect to its site. His name and his fame are per­ petuated by Cabot Strait, which separates Cape Breton I sland :..... r- from Newfoundland, by the Cabot Trail, with its unsurt>assed :., , scenic splendour, in Cape Breton Island, and by Cabot 'l'ower on Signal Hill, at St. John's in Newfoundland. It is very fitting that Cabot's a.ctivities should be so com­ memorated in both Cape Breton Island and Newfoundland, for his voyages had great significance for each. Yet these me­ morials, through their different locations, may also indicate the crux of the Cabotian controversy: there is still a lack of un­ animity with respect to the site of Cabot's landfall in 1497. There are some who would claim it for Cape Breton Island, as well as others who would attribute it to Newfoundland or Labra­ dor. And now that Newfoundland is a part of the Canadian nation, these rival claims have been revived, the evidence has been re-considered and re-sifted, and, if it is now possible, a decision should be reached on this matter.

  • Reorientation of Nocturnal Landbird Migrants Over the Atlantic Ocean Near Nova Scotia in Autumn
    REORIENTATION OF NOCTURNAL LANDBIRD MIGRANTS OVER THE ATLANTIC OCEAN NEAR NOVA SCOTIA IN AUTUMN W. JOHN RICHARDSON LGL Ltd., Environmental Research Associates,44 Eglinton Avenue West, Toronto, Ontario, Canada M4R 1A1 ABSTRACT.--The behavior of landbirds involved in the predominating SSW-W migration over and near Nova Scotia during autumn nights was studied by radar. Takeoff began 28 -+ 5 min after sunset. Many landbirds flew from Newfoundland across Cabot Strait to Nova Scotia and from western Nova Scotia across the Gulf of Maine toward New England. Contrary to most previous night observations, some changed course to reach land or to avoid moving offshore. However, many crossedcoasts at right or acute angles without hesitation or turning. Landbirds moved offshore on nights with offshore, alongshore, and even onshore winds. Landbirds flying SSW-W over the sea late in the night sometimesascended and/or reorientedWNW-NNE toward land, especiallywhen winds were unfavorable for continued SW flight and/or favorable for flight to the NW. Reoriented birds usually continued to arrive at the coast until noon, but the density of arrival declined steadily through the morning. Indirect but strong evidence indicates that di- rectional cues additional to sight of land were often used for reorientation. No evidence of dawn reorientation by landbirds flying SE-SSW toward the West Indies was found. Received 15 No- vember 1977, accepted 9 April 1978. LANDBIRDS that normally migrate at night often occur over the western Atlantic Ocean during autumn days (Scholander 1955). Three groups are distinguishable. First, many migrants that fly SW or WSW from near-coastal areas move offshore (Fig.

However, the EGSL ecosystem is affected by a wide variety of human activities that pose significant threats to its integrity and the sustainable use of its resources. These include fisheries, navigation, mariculture activities, coastal development, recreational use (including marine mammal observation), climate change, and several land–based activities that occur along the EGSL shores and in coastal and upstream rivers and tributaries, including industrial and municipal activities, agriculture, and river damming (for water level control and hydropower). In 2005, the Government of Canada initiated the Oceans Action Plan (OAP) in order to implement an ecosystem-based management approach for five Large Ocean Management Areas (LOMAs), including the Estuary and Gulf of St. Lawrence. This presentation provides an overview of the EGSL ecosystem structure and functioning, as well as its human pressures, through a summary of the scientific tools that were developed within this initiative.

Lauzier and R. V Trites INTRODUCTION The Laurentian Channel is a deep trough that extends from the edge of the Continental Shelf through the Gulf of St. Lawrence and into the estuary of the St. Lawrence (Fig. This channel, which cuts through the Continental Shelf, separates the Grand Banks and the Scotian Shelf. From the edge of the Continental Shelf to Cabot Strait , it has depths ranging approximately from 600 to 400 metres. From Cabot Strait inward for a distance of about 400 miles, it s hallows to 200 metres and terminates abruptly in the vicinity of the Saguenay River. Cabot Strait provides the only opening to the deep waters of the Gulf of St. Lawrence. This Strait is 56 miles wide (104 km.) and has a maximum depth of 480 The cur- metres. Its cross section has an area of 35 sq. km. rents through Cabot Strait have been investigated by Dawson (1913), Sandstrom (1919), and MacGregor (1956). The circulation in Cabot Strait is featured by an outflowing current along the Cape Breton side and an inflowing current along the Newfoundland side. Dynamic calculations show strongest currents in August and least in April and May. The waters of ;he Laurentian Channel are highly stratified (Lauzier and Bailey, 1957) In the summer, a warm surface layer is superimposed on an intermediate cold-water layer over- lying a deep warm la rer.

  • Summary of Newfoundland & Labrador Phase Two
    SUMMARY OF NEWFOUNDLAND & LABRADORPHASE TWO MEMORIAL CONDUCT OF THE PARTffiS There is no conduct in this case that is relevant to the detennination of an equitable result. The conduct has been too sparse, ambiguous, inconsistent, and brief to meet the stringent standards required in maritime delimitation cases. Nor does it demonstrate acquiescence or estoppel. The proposals exchanged in the early years ofthe dispute were always predicated on the understanding that federal recognition ofthe parties' claims would be required. Examination of the parties' pennitting practices leads to the same conclusion. Their conduct was not mutual, consistent, or clear. First, the pennits that Newfoundland issued between 1965and 1976 disclose no defacto western boundary correspondingto any Nova Scotian easternboundary. Moreover, with the promulgation of the Newfoundland and Labrador Petroleum Regulations, 1977, all prior pennits lapsed. Thereafter Newfoundland issued no pennits in the vicinity of the potential boundary. Second, the pennits were intended to buttress ajurisdictional claim vis-a-vis the federal government. None of the pennits Newfoundland issued after 1971 granted production rights. Third, the parties' conduct was short-lived. Minister Doody's letter of October 6, 1972 demonstrates that by 1973 a dispute existed between the parties as to the existence and location of the boundary. GEOGRAPHIC SETTING (Figure 2) In the Gulf of St. Lawrence, the parties' coasts are adjacent. In the western-most portion of the Cabot Strait, the coasts are opposite. There is no striking difference or disparity between the parties' coasts in these areas. To the east the situation is more complicated. In Canada v. France, the Court noted that the "coasts of Newfoundland and Cape Breton Island from the Burin Peninsula to Scatarie Island, together with the opening to the Gulf of St.

  • 66 Chapter Iv the Choice of a Method I. 164. 165. 166. 167
    66 CHAPTER IV THE CHOICE OF A METHOD I. Introduction 164. This Chapter is dividedinto two parts. The first is an assessmentof a provisionalequidistant line, an analysis that will both demonstrate that an equitable solution cannot be achieved through the use of that method and helpto identifysome of the key issues that arise out of the unique physicaland politicalgeography of the region. The second part willpresent the claimofN ewfoundlandandLabrador and explainwhythat claimwould resultinanequitable delimitation. 165. TheNova Scotia position has, to date, been based on the line set out in its legislation,whose status was considered in Phase One of this arbitration. At this stage, Newfoundland and Labrador is not in a position to know whether Nova Scotia willcontinueto assert that lineas the basis of its claim or whether it willpropose a new position. Accordingly,this Memorial willnot addressthe existingNova Scotia linein anydetail.TheNewfoundland andLabrador response to the Nova Scotia claim,whatever form it takes, willbe reservedto the subsequent pleadings of this Phase. 166. What must be said, however, is that the line so far claimedbyNova Scotia isunsustainableas a matter of international law. It is not based on any discernableprinciple. It is simply an indefiniteextensionofthe last segmentof the lineoutside Cabot Strait, projectedblindlyinto the outer area over vast distancesto the edge ofthe continentalshelf It is disproportionate; it disregardsthe shiftfrom opposite to adjacentcoasts asthe lineproceeds seaward; and it is constructed as if the entire coast ofN ewfoundlandoutsidethe innerconcavity didnot exist. Whilethere maybe no singlemethod that is legallycorrect under internationallaw, there are methods that are plainly wrong. The present Nova Scotia line, it is submitted, is plainly wrong.
