  • Ontario's Greenbelt
    Ontario’s Greenbelt: Acres of Possibility Burkhard Mausberg Ontario’s Greenbelt turns 12 years old in 2017. At two million acres, it’s the world’s largest peri-urban protected area. The Greenbelt Act and Plan were passed with much fanfare in 2005, and while there was some loud opposition from certain affected landowners and municipalities, the plan received significant backing from conservationists and planning experts. Since its inception, the Greenbelt has enjoyed huge public approval: it is consistently the provincial government’s most popular environmental initiative, garnering more than 90% support. The Greenbelt addressed a growing frustration with land use planning in the Greater Toronto Area: Ontarians asked for better regional planning. They recognized the negative impacts of poor development and the loss of greenspace and farmland. But the Greenbelt’s roots go back longer than the last dozen years—to the mid-1970s, in fact, when Premier Bill Davis protected the Niagara Escarpment. Aside from creating Niagara Falls, the escarpment is known for its rich biodiversity, centuries-old cedar trees, and unique cliff ecology. Declared a UNESCO biosphere reserve, the Niagara Escarpment includes Great Lakes coastlines, woodlands, limestone alvar, oak savannahs, conifer swamps, and other signature features. Together these diverse habitats contain a premier level of species variety among Canadian biosphere reserves, including more than 300 bird species, 55 mammals, 36 reptiles and amphibians, and 90 fish varieties. In 2001, Ontario’s Premier Mike Harris declared the Oak Ridges Moraine protected from development. The premier understood that the moraine is an ecologically important landform, created by receding glaciers during the last ice age.

The bedrock valleys at Milverton, Wingham and Mount Forest are tunnel valleys, resulting from subglacial meltwater erosion beneath the Huron ice lobe, probably during or shortly after the Late-Wisconsinan glacial maximum. Diagnostic features for this interpretation include abrupt valley beginning and termination, uneven longitudinal valley profiles and up-slope gradients. The Dundas bedrock valley is the western extension of the Lake Ontario Basin. No comparable bedrock valleys were found to connect it to the Milverton valley for a joint drainage system as previously suggested. The Laurentian bedrock trough is the southeast- ward extension of the Georgian Bay Basin, both developed along shale bedrock between the Precambrian shield highlands and the Niagara Escarpment, resulting from long-term mechanical weathering associated with Pleistocene glacial erosion. This bedrock low has a floor that exceeds 50 km in width and is 26 m and more below the current water level of Georgian Bay.

Executive Summary Ontario’s diverse provincial land use plans have been operating collectively to manage growth, encourage agriculture, and protect significant landscapes within the region for a little over a decade. Currently, these plans are being updated through the Coordinated Land Use Planning Review, creating an opportune moment to reflect on the plans’ histories and accomplishments, as well as determine a direction for their shared futures.

    THE HUMBER RIVER: THE 10-YEAR MONITORING REPORT FOR THE CANADIAN HERITAGE RIVERS SYSTEM October 2009 Lower Humber Valley, Toronto, TRCA, 2008 THE HUMBER CHALLENGE Our challenge is to protect and enhance the Humber River watershed as a vital and healthy ecosystem where we live, work and play in harmony with the natural environment. GUIDING PRINCIPLES To achieve a healthy watershed, we should: • Increase awareness of the watershed’s resources • Protect the Humber River as a continuing source of clean water • Celebrate, regenerate, and preserve our natural, historical and cultural heritage • Increase community stewardship and take individual responsibility for the health of the Humber River • Establish linkages and promote partnerships among communities • Build a strong watershed economy based on ecological health, and • Promote the watershed as a destination of choice for recreation and tourism The Humber River: The 10-Year Monitoring Report for the Canadian Heritage Rivers System i FRAGMENT: THE VALLEY Like a sweet wine flowing from the glass, the Humber of my boyhood years! First the stretch of the river valley as I knew it best, running south from Dundas Street to my beloved stone marvel of the Old Mill Bridge, a scant mile to the south, not forgetting to count a quarter-mile jog to the east halfway down to heighten the wonderment. What force of ten million years’ cunning erosion, the relentless path of an awkward giant carving out for himself great steps one by one as he strides on and on, thirsty now for a great cold draught of Lake Ontario water!

    Jackson New Caribou Fossil Records from Rice Lake 55 New Caribou Fossil Records from Rice Lake, South-Central Ontario: Radiocarbon Evidence and Middle Holocene Climatic Change Lawrence J. Jackson This paper discusses three new radiocarbon dates on fossil caribou bones from Rice Lake, Ontario, and their possible environmental implications. Three specimens identified by Howard Savage, of the University of Toronto, and Richard Harington, of the Canadian Museum of Civilization, indicate a middle Holocene caribou presence in this area of south-central Ontario. One specimen, previously reported as a possible Late Pleistocene record (cf. Pavlish and Alcock [1984] on Webb Bay), is radiocarbon-dated several thousand years later in the middle Holocene. Zonal pollen in Rice Lake cores suggests the principal occurrence of these dated Rice Lake caribou during a Hypsithermal warming between about 7,000 and 3,000 years B.P. The lack of fossil material for the late glacial period (terminal Pleistocene) is believed to correlate with the cur- rent inaccessibility of depositional environments due to flooding of ancient Rice Lake shorelines. The local presence of Early Palaeo-Indian sites, on the other hand, is highly suggestive of the presence of caribou at this time. The apparent absence of caribou during the early and late Holocene, as well as lack of evidence for their human exploitation throughout the Holocene, requires explanation. Introduction by a geologist during hillside cottage excavation. Dr. Howard Savage, of the University of Toronto Rice Lake is a 26 km long, narrow post-glacial Faunal Laboratory, identified this specimen as lake basin that connects the Kawartha Lakes with the left calcaneum of an adult caribou (Rangifer the Trent River and Lake Ontario.

  • Sedimentology, Stratigraphy, and Chronology of the Northwestern Outlet of Glacial Lake Agassiz, Northeastern Alberta
    Sedimentology, stratigraphy, and chronology of the Northwestern Outlet of glacial Lake Agassiz, northeastern Alberta by Joseph M. Young A thesis submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Science Department of Earth and Atmospheric Sciences University of Alberta © Joseph M. Young, 2018 Abstract Lake Agassiz was dammed on the retreating southern and western margins of the Laurentide Ice Sheet during the end of the last Ice Age. Periodic discharges of freshwater from the lake basin have been implicated in altering oceanic circulation and impacting global climate. Meltwater from a rapid decrease in lake level at the start of the Moorhead Phase has been hypothesized as the initiation mechanism for the Younger Dryas cold reversal (~12.9 to 11.5 ka yr BP). However, the timing and routing of this event is still disputed, as there is evidence for both easterly and northwestward drainage during this time. This thesis presents a twofold contribution to understanding the timing, dynamics, and significance of glacial Lake Agassiz meltwater centred on the Moorhead Phase. Radiocarbon data pertaining to the Moorhead and subsequent Emerson Phases from the Lake Agassiz basin was collated and assessed using manual and statistical filters to vet the dataset. Approximately one third of existing dates were found to be inadequate chronological constraints. A Bayesian model was then applied to the filtered dataset to produce refined age ranges for the start and end of each lake phase. The modelled onset of the Moorhead Phase suggests a lack of contemporaneity to the onset of the Younger Dryas. We suggest further high-quality radiocarbon dates are needed in the Lake Agassiz basin to more robustly constrain lake dynamics during this time.
