    Northern Projections Kenora District Human Capital Series Dr. Bahktiar Moazzami northernpolicy.ca Huskie the Muskie, McLeod Park, Kenora, ON Northern Policy Institute / Institut des politiques de Nord Kenora District | August 2019 3 Who We Are Northern Policy Institute Northern Policy Institute is Northern Ontario’s independent think tank. We perform research, collect and disseminate evidence, and identify policy opportunities to support the growth of sustainable Northern Communities. Our operations are located in Thunder Bay and Sudbury. We seek to enhance Northern Ontario’s capacity to take the lead position on socio-economic policy that impacts Northern Ontario, Ontario, and Canada as a whole. About the Series This Human Capital Series is an update of an earlier series published in partnership with Northern Ontario Workforce Planning. Workforce Planning Ontario is a network of 26 Workforce Planning Boards covering four regions across the province. Workforce Planning Boards gather intelligence on local labour market supply and demand, and work in partnership with employers, employment services, educators, researchers, economic development, government and other stakeholders to identify, understand and address labour market issues. This includes supporting and coordinating local responses to meet current and emerging workforce needs. Given the unique geography and labour market issues that impact Northern Ontario, all 6 planning boards in the north have collaborated to form Northern Ontario Workforce Planning. They include: Algoma Workforce Investment Corporation (AWIC); Far Northeast Training Board (FNETB); The Labour Market Group (LMG); Northwest Training and Adjustment Board (NTAB); North Superior Workforce Planning Board (NSWPB); and Workforce Planning for Sudbury & Manitoulin (WPSM). FNETB and NSWPB are currently pilot sites for Local Employment Planning Councils (LEPC).

  • Nipigon Bay Area of Concern Status of Beneficial Use Impairments September 2010
    Nipigon Bay Area of Concern Status of Beneficial Use Impairments September 2010 Nipigon Bay is in the most northerly area of Lake Superior. The Area of Concern takes in a large portion of Nipigon Bay and the Nipigon River, the largest tributary to Lake Superior, and the communities of Red Rock and Nipigon. There are Ontario Power Generation dams on the Nipigon River for the generation of hydroelectricity. The area supports a variety of wetlands and bird populations, including one of four known pelican colonies in Ontario. The watershed forests on both sides of the Nipigon River have been allocated for forest harvesting. Environmental concerns in the Nipigon Bay Area of Concern are related to water level and flow fluctuations in Lake Nipigon and the Nipigon River from the generation of hydroelectricity. These fluctuations affect stream bank stability, sediment load and fish and wildlife habitat. Other concerns include the accumulation of wood fibre, bark and other organic material from past log drives, and effluent discharges from a linerboard mill (which closed in 2006) and the municipal sewage treatment plants in Nipigon and Red Rock. PARTNERSHIPS IN ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION Nipigon Bay was designated an Area of Concern in 1987 under the Canada–United States Great Lakes Water Quality Agreement. Areas of Concern are sites on the Great Lakes system where environmental quality is significantly degraded and beneficial uses are impaired. Currently, there are 9 such designated areas on the Canadian side of the Great Lakes, 25 in the United States, and 5 that are shared by both countries. In each Area of Concern, government, community and industry partners are undertaking a coordinated effort to restore environmental quality and beneficial uses through a remedial action plan.

  • HISTORIC POPULATIONS of NORTHWESTERN ONTARIO KAC Dawson Lakehead University Published In
    157 HISTORIC POPULATIONS OF NORTHWESTERN ONTARIO K.A.C. Dawson Lakehead University Published in: Papers of the 7th Algonquian Conference (1975) 158 This paper was prompted by the continuing emphasis placed by some eth­ nologists on the rather vague historical references to Assiniboine peoples in northwestern Ontario as evidence of their occupation of portions of the area. The prime purpose of the paper is to examine the historical record. It is recognized that the early archaeological literature dealing with Minn­ esota and Manitoba (Wilford 1941, 1945, 1955; MacNeish 1954, 1958) strongly influenced the approach in equating the Terminal Woodland period Blackduck tradition as an exclusive product of the Assiniboine. This was prior to the record of the presence of the tradition in Ontario from the Severn River in the north, south to the border region of west of Lake Superior and east to roughly the Ottawa river region (Conway 1975; Dawson 1974, 1975a, 1975d; Hurley and Kenyon 1972; Kenyon 1961; Pollock and Noble 1975; Ridley 1954,19- 66; Wright 1965, 1966, 1968c, 1972, n.d.). The extensive spacial and temp­ oral depth of the tradition and its presence into historic times in this area historically dominated by Algonkian speaking peoples negates Assiniboine affinities in Ontario. Further it is implicit in the record that the Algon­ kian speakers are not recent arrivals to northwestern Ontario. Information pertaining to the early historic period is reviewed in this paper and the results of the extensive archaeological records are introduced concluding that northwestern Ontario has been occupied from time out of mind by Algonkian speaking peoples.
