  • GEOGRAPHICAL FEATURES 5 Eastward Across Northern Ontario and Down Into Eastern Ontario
    GEOGRAPHICAL FEATURES 5 eastward across northern Ontario and down into eastern Ontario. Petroleum and natural gas, salt, and gypsum are also produced on an important scale in trie south­ western part of the Province. Fruit farming in the Niagara District and general farming throughout the entire southern part of the Province are carried on extensively under unusually favourable conditions, while timber, pulp, and furs are other im­ portant products of more northern parts. Manitoba.—Manitoba, the most easterly of the Prairie Provinces, and also the oldest of them in point of settlement, includes the area between Ontario on the east and Saskatchewan on the west. Its southerly limit is the International Boundary, while its northerly boundary is the 60th parallel of latitude and Hudson Bay, where its coast of over 400 miles includes the harbour and port of Churchill. The total area of Manitoba, of which about 56 p.c. lies south of the isotherm of 60° F. mean July temperature,* is 246,512 square miles—3,246 square miles greater than twice the total area of the British Isles. The conformity of the surface of Manitoba is quite even; commencing on the north with a strip bordering on Hudson Bay—perhaps 100 miles wide and less than 500 feet in elevation—the surface rises gradually towards the west and south. The bulk of the Province has an elevation of between 500 and 1,000 feet, and the greatest height of 2,727 feet is attained in Duck Mountain, north­ west of Lake Dauphin. East and north of Lake Winnipeg the Canadian Shield is found with its Precambrian rock formation, but the remainder of the Province is over­ lain by very fertile soil of great depth.

  • Town of Ajax.Pdf
    2 The TOWN “Development is the operative word in Ajax for sure,” says Paul Allore, Director of Planning and Development for the Town of Ajax, Ontario. “We’re always either leading in the region or in the one-two in terms of building permit activity.” 3 by the LAKE “Revitalizing the downtown core has been an ongoing commitment for Ajax’s Council.” Written by Anne Lindert-Wentzell nown as Ajax by the Lake for its seven kilometres of protected frontage along Lake Ontario, the Town of KAjax is located east of the Greater Toronto Area in the Durham region in Southern Ontario’s eastern section of the Golden Horseshoe. At 110,000, Ajax’s population has doubled in the past 20 years. Ajax was incorporated as a town in 1955 and is currently one of the fastest growing economic areas in the province. Ajax can attribute its beginning to World War II and the subse- quent establishment of Defence Industries Limited (D.I.L) in 1941. D.I.L was North America’s largest defence industry players, pro- viding supplies for World War II allies through its munitions plant. As a war plant community, workers came from across Canada to work at D.I.L. The name Ajax was selected because the HMS Ajax, along with her sister ships, the HMS’s Exeter and Achilles, were successful in the first British naval victory against the German battleship Graf Spee at the Battle of the River Plate near Uruguay, South America. “Most of the streets in Ajax are named after the sailors in that battle,” explains Paul.
