Prince Edward Island Invasive Species Research and Management Strategy Workshop Proceedings iii Prince Edward Island Invasive Species Research and Management Strategy Workshop April 11, 2006 Background On April 11, 2006 the Prince Edward Island Aquaculture Alliance, the Prince Edward Island Department of Agriculture, Fisheries and Aquaculture and DFO=s Aquatic Invasive Species Program staff co-sponsored the Prince Edward Island Invasive Species Research and Management Strategy Workshop at the Howard Johnson Dutch Inn in Cornwall. The purpose of the workshop was to bring together mussel producers, processors, researchers and development experts with experience in dealing with invasive species. At least six known invasive species have established in Prince Edward Island since 1998. Four species of tunicates (clubbed Styela clava, vase Ciona intestinalis, violet Botrylloides violaceus, and golden star Botryllus schlosseri, green crab Carcinus maenus and oyster thief Codium fragile are having negative ecological and economical consequences, more specifically for the mussel aquaculture industry (farmers and processors) and the clam fishery. Currently the mussel industry is significantly impacted with respect to growing, harvesting and processing of product infested with invasive tunicate species. The workshop also focussed on a review of the Aquatic Invasive Species Program in 2005 and research and development priorities were identified in the afternoon session using a pre-determined list of questions that elicited valuable debate in the break-out discussion groups. The PEI Invasive Species Research and Management Strategy Workshop was held between 9:00 am and 4:30 pm, allowing each invited speaker sufficient time to present their knowledge and workshop participants ample opportunity to engage these researchers in thought provoking discussion and resolution of issues facing the industry. Three speakers from Nova Scotia who had considerable experience with Ciona intestinalis were invited to share their knowledge of this relatively recent newcomer to PEI waters. Participation at the workshop was encouraging with 54 individuals from the Maritimes, various aspects of the industry (growers, employees, processors, equipment suppliers), the research community and several levels of government participating in discussions. Sponsors and Supporters The workshop was financially supported by the Aquaculture Collaborative Research and Development Program (ACRDP) of Fisheries and Oceans Canada and through the registration fees collected at the venue. An organizing committee for the workshop (ie. draft agenda, identification of topical research and development projects, contact guest speakers, etc.) was developed in December 2005 and comprised DFO (Art Smith, Invasive Species Coordinator), the PEI Department of Agriculture, Fisheries and Aquaculture (Neil MacNair, Aquaculture Biologist), and the PEI Aquaculture Alliance (Jean MacDonald, Executive Director) and Bob Thompson (Research and Environmental Management Coordinator). The Howard Johnson Dutch Inn, Cornwall provided the venue, audio equipment, health breaks and the noon luncheon. The Prince Edward Island Aquaculture Alliance provided administrative services via the PEIAA newsletter, mail-outs, ACRDP Report No. MG-06-01-007 1 April 11, 2006 Prince Edward Island Invasive Species Research and Management Strategy Workshop telephone and staff for the registration desk. An in-kind donation of the visual services (ie. projection equipment and computer) was provided by the PEI Department of Agriculture Fisheries and Aquaculture. Neil MacNair (PEIDAFA) assisted the speakers by loading their presentations on a laptop computer. Bob Thompson was engaged by the PEIAA to facilitate the workshop and develop the proceedings in a final report. Presentations In April 2006, the Invasive Species Research and Management Strategy Workshop organizing committee posed the following questions to focus the workshop and sought appropriate invasive species researchers and individuals with front line experience in an effort to better understand AIS and the effects on shellfish aquaculture: < What is the status of AIS in Prince Edward Island? < What are we learning about AIS in PEI? < What are we doing about it? < Can we limit the spread of AIS? < What farm management strategies exist to manage or treat AIS? < What tools do we have to communicate AIS to industry stakeholders and the general public? < How have we done thus far? $ What worked in 2005? $ What didn=t work? $ What is industry=s role < What are the needs for 2006? < Monitoring? < Introductions and Transfers? < Research? < Development? < Communications? Guest Speakers Copies of each speaker=s presentation is appended to this report. The workshop organising committee acknowledges the participation of our guest speakers from Nova Scotia and New Brunswick who provided first hand knowledge and expertise in dealing with AIS. Special

  • Fundamentalism, Modernism and the Maritime Baptists in the 1920S and 1930S
    G.A. RAWLYK Fundamentalism, Modernism and the Maritime Baptists in the 1920s and 1930s MANY ENGLISH-CANADIAN HISTORIANS FIND IT embarrassingly difficult to take religion seriously. As they comb the past for relevance they are keen to avoid any confrontation with spiritual and religious realities. Perhaps they are uncomfortable thinking about such issues. Perhaps, because of the older Whig political bias of so much Canadian historical writing and the newer bias of secular social history, they are determined to float in the mainstream of historiography and not be lost in some shallow cul-de-sac. This somewhat unfair caricature of the Canadian historical profession underscores some of the basic problems confronting the writing of religious history in English Canada in the 1980s. When compared with American historians, English-Canadian historians have significantly downplayed the importance of religion as a formative force in national life. Canadian historical writing, especially that of post World War II period, reflects the devastating impact of what has been referred to as "that process of separation and individualism that modernity seems to entail".1 A sensitive reading of Canadians' collective religious past should bring what Stephen Toulmin has called a degree of "cosmic interrelatedness" back to scholarly investigation.2 Of course, a revived and Americanized Canadian religious history is not the only way to accomplish this end. But if Canadians could begin to discuss critically and openly issues about religion, values, community, individualism, space and time "in ways that did not disaggregate them into fragments", it might still be possible "to find connections and analogies with the older ways in which human life was made meaningful".3 Ironically, within the larger context of the recent historiography of the Maritime Provinces, religious history has not been pushed off into some dark corner of irrelevance, inconsequence, and scholarly oblivion.

  • Chapter V the Second World War to the Appointment Of
    CHAPTER V THE SECOND WORLD WAR TO THE APPOINTMENT OF R. J. FRASER AS DOMINION HYDROGRAPHER 1940-1947 Twelve years had now elapsed since the Canadian Hydrographie Service was last reclassified, and this despite its amalgamation with the Map Service in 1936 and subsequent requests for another general reclassification, or unit survey as it was then called. This review had its commencement in the fall of 1938, and in May 1940 a reclassification of the Hydrographie and Map Service was approved. Since 1898, this was the fourth reclassification of the hydrographie service, and coincidentally its last. In the post-war years departmental heads were granted more authority in matters pertaining to staff and promotions - a procedure that has since proven to be more progressive than the pre-war method. Ironically, the same Order-in-Council that authorized this new classification also introduced the first wartime freeze on civil servants' salaries, and fixed the proportion of permanent staff as of 30 September 1939. As the war became more intense, regulations of the War Measures Act were enforced that imposed more stringent staff and financial controls on employees. One problem that became quite acute was manpower shortage, and to offset this, most civil servants in September 1943 were "frozen" in their positions for the duration. Had he an opportunity to improve his lot elsewhere, departmental approval was necessary, or resign. Senior employees above the $3,000 salary ceiling were in a most frustrating position. They were not eligible for the cost-of-living bonus, and since January 1942 their statutory increases were suspended.

  • A Bibliography of Loyalist Source Material in Canada
    A Bibliography of Loyalist Source Material in Canada JO-ANN FELLOWS, Editor KATHRYN CALDER, Researcher PROGRAM FOR LOYALIST STUDIES AND PUBLICATIONS Sponsored by the American Antiquarian Society City University of New Tork University of London and University of New Brunswick by ROBERT A. EAST, Executive Director The origins of this Program are to be found in the pros- pectus issued in April 1968 by Professor East of the History faculty of the City University of New York and James E. Mooney, Editor of Publications of the American Antiquarian Society. It was the feeling of both that the imminent anniversary of the Revolution would make such an undertaking an impera- tive of historical scholarship, for an understanding of the Rev- olution would be necessarily incomplete and inevitably dis- torted without the full story of the American Loyalists. It was the hope of both that the work could go forward under the joint sponsorship of both institutions, and this was quickly gained. The next step was to canvass the scholarly community in England, Canada, and the United States to learn of its reac- 67 68 American Antiquarian Society tions. The prospectus was written, handsomely printed by Alden Johnson of the Barre Publishers, and sent out to a number of scholars, archivists, and others. The response to this mailing was even more enthusiastic than Professor East or Mr. Mooney had hoped for and led to discussions concerning even broader sponsorship of an inter- national character. Thomas J. Condon ofthe American Council of Learned Societies early took a cheering interest in the proj- ect and pledged the cooperation of his august organization to advance the work.
