  • History of Sherbrooke Village
    1 Sherbrooke Village History Page # a) Introduction 2 b) Sir John Coape Sherbrooke 2 c) The History and Development of Sherbrooke, Guysborough County by Phyllis Blakely 3 d) The Development of Sherbrooke Village to 1880 by John Grant 19 e) The Evolution of Sherbrooke Village to 2014 23 f) Sherbrooke Village Buildings, Methods and Skills 25 History and Development of Sherbrooke, Nova Scotia a) Introduction In 1655, French fur trader LaGiraudiere, built a fur trading post, Fort Sainte Marie (named after the river), above the entrance of the river at the head of the tide. He had been given the “rights to settle” from the Company of New France and later from the Company of the West Indies. Here, they traded with the Indians and, as the remnants of the dykes suggest, cultivated the soil, growing wheat and vegetables to supplement their staples of game and fish. Nicholas Denys wrote that all “the buildings of LaGiraudiere were enclosed by a fort of four little bastions , the whole made of great pickets or stakes. There were two pieces of brass canon and some swivel guns. The whole in good state of defence.” A clearing was made around the fort, where wheat was grown but the soil was too sandy for good crops, so he devoted his attention to hunting and fishing, particularly salmon fishing and the trading of furs. In the summer of 1669 while LaGiraudiere was in France, Fort Sainte Marie was captured by an English force which had been sent in the autumn of 1668 to expel the French from Port Royal.

  • Allophones Build Communities in the Rest of Quebec
    More Allophones Calling Rest of Quebec Home: Numbers of persons whose mother tongue is neither English nor French rises sharply outside Montreal Jack Jedwab Executive Director Association for Canadian Studies February 10, 2009 Special for the Montreal Gazette For several years concerned with the overwhelming concentration of immigrants in Montreal, the government of Quebec has made efforts to encourage newcomers to settle in the regions outside of the province’s largest city. Its efforts may be bearing fruit judging by the results of the 2006 census. The combination of a slightly higher percentage of immigrants settling outside of Montreal in the rest of Quebec and the substantial increase in the numbers of immigrants admitted by the province since the beginning of the century has had an important impact on the demography of several regions. Indeed between 2001 and 2006 the increase has been so important that in several places the combined numbers of allophones surpassed the size of the anglophone population in areas with historically established English-speaking communities. In 1996 the headlines of major Quebec newspapers proclaimed that the number of mother tongie allophones in Montreal surpassed the number of anglophones. While in the rest of Quebec the number of anglophones still exceeded the number of allophones at the time of the 2006 census by now it is reasonably safe to assume that in the ROQ there are more allophones. As observed in the table below where there were more allophones than anglophones in 2001 (e.g. Baie-Comeau, Saguenay, Alma, St.Georges, Thetford Mines, Trois-Rivieres, Drummondville, Granby and Sorel) there are now more allophones.

  • Twinning for the 50Th of Faith and Sharing Brought by Jacques Trudeau, Supported by the Sherbrooke Committee
    Community Twinning For the 50th of Faith and Sharing Brought by Jacques Trudeau, supported by the Sherbrooke committee Context: In the past, members of the various Faith and Sharing communities met to celebrate and share their experiences. These meetings helped to support each other, give thanks, and give impetus to the leaders. Especially because of the aging of the members, it is difficult today to make move people. However, exchanges are always beneficial, for the discovery of others in their diversity and the fraternity generated. Proposal: A twinning of communities, without moving all the members, to exchange experiences and give thanks. The proposed twinning is the following for Francophone communities, to minimize travel distances: - Sherbrooke – Quebec City - Montreal – Valleyfield One or more members present their community to the twinned community, in all simplicity. The presentation is done during a regular activity of the community. For Ottawa and Rouyn-Noranda, given the distances, the twinning is done by less structured visits of members. Twinning made: Ottawa, April 27, 2018 3 members of Sherbrooke participate in the Ottawa prayer evening, preceded by a fraternal meal. Montreal, July 10, 2018 4 Ottawa members participate in the first day of Montreal's annual retreat. Montreal, July 12, 2018 3 members of Valleyfield participate in the last day of Montreal's annual retreat. Valleyfield Coordinator Julie Prégent gives an overview of the Valleyfield community's experience. Valleyfield, September 10, 2018 2 Montreal members are participating in the Valleyfield Retreat Day, which is also a celebration of Valleyfield's 40th anniversary. Montreal coordinator Max St-Louis presents his warmest wishes on behalf of his community.

  • Canada's Statistics on Land Cover and Land Use Change In
    Canada’s statistics on land cover and land use change in metropolitan areas Jennie Wang Paper prepared for the 16th Conference of IAOS OECD Headquarters, Paris, France, 19-21 September 2018 Session 3.F., Day 2, 20/09, 10h30: Urbanisation and sustainable cities 1 Jennie Wang [email protected] Statistics Canada Canada’s statistics on land cover and land use change in metropolitan areas DRAFT VERSION 30/08/2018 Prepared for the 16th Conference of the International Association of Official Statisticians (IAOS) OECD Headquarters, Paris, France, 19-21 September 2018 2 ABSTRACT Ecosystems are affected by changes in land cover and land use. As urbanization progresses in Canada and elsewhere, so too does the interest in quantifying land cover and land use changes in and around cities, particularly from the perspective of urban expansion and densification. The expansion of built-up areas results in the loss of adjacent agricultural and natural and semi- natural land covers. For example, cropland, grasslands, forests and wetlands are replaced by houses, apartment blocks, industrial parks, commercial strips, roads and parking lots. Densification may reduce some of the pressure on agricultural and natural land, but is not without its own challenges including the loss of green space and other amenities within existing settlements. This paper explores Statistics Canada’s recent work on measuring land use change around Canada’s 33 census metropolitan areas. It provides an overview of the methods used to integrate data sources from 1971 to 2011 and discusses limitations including availability of data and comparability over time. Findings and maps from the report Human Activity and the Environment: The changing landscape of Canadian metropolitan areas (Statistics Canada, 2016) are presented, along with new findings from work to extend this methodology to smaller census agglomerations.

It maintains a GIS database containing both privately flown 12-centimeter aerial photography and 50-centimter GeoEye imagery (IKONOS and high-resolution GeoEye-1). The City’s 80 police cars and 20 fire trucks are all equipped with Datalux Tracer terminals, and the City recently invested in a new dispatch software ORGANIZATION City of Sherbrooke solution from Versaterm that has an on-board client application enabling LOCATION officers and firefighters to access the City’s GIS database from their vehicles.
