The 150 Books of Influence Project Committee recognizes the support of the Province of Nova Scotia. We are pleased to work in partnership with the Department of Communities, Culture and Heritage to develop and promote our cultural resources for all Nova Scotians. Final publication date November 2017. Books are our finest calling card to the world. The stories they share travel far and wide, and contribute greatly to our global presence. Books have the power to profoundly express the complex and rich cultural life that makes Nova Scotia a place people want to visit, live, work and play. This year, the 150th Anniversary of Confederation provided Public Libraries across the province with a unique opportunity to involve Nova Scotians in a celebration of our literary heritage. The value of public engagement in the 150 Books of Influence project is demonstrated by the astonishing breadth and quality of titles listed within. The booklist showcases the diversity and creativity of authors, both past and present, who have called Nova Scotia home.

    Historica Canada Education Portal Angus Walters Overview This lesson is based on viewing the Angus Walters biography from The Canadians series. Walters built and raced the Bluenose schooner. Racing and preserving the Bluenose became a lifelong passion for Walters, and its image is one of Canada's enduring symbols. Aims Students will study the life and leadership of Angus Walters, as well as learning about the historical context and importance of the Bluenose. Students will also achieve a greater understanding of the issues involved with heritage pride and preservation. Background One of Canada's most enduring images is engraved on the Canadian dime. The Bluenose was Canada's pride and joy, a schooner that became an international racing legend, and the man behind the Bluenose was Angus Walters. Angus was a man whose fame - eighteen years as Master of the Bluenose - would overwhelm him and completely overshadow his personal life. His passions were all professional, and it was his family who paid the price. He was born on 9 June 1881, in Lunenberg, Nova Scotia, one of twelve children of a fisherman. By age thirteen he was working as a "throater" - the person who cuts the throat of the fish - on a six month voyage for his father. By fifteen he was a Doryman who'd weathered many voyages, confronted danger, and harbored a growing appetite for adventure. Angus became Captain of his own vessel while he was still a teenager. He sailed the high seas of the North Atlantic and as far as the Caribbean. When he could, he'd let his vessel go "all out" and "race" the waves.

Acknowledgments My warm and grateful thanks go to Mr. Don Oland, who, repre­ senting the entire Oland family, extended the invitation to my husband and myself to sail aboard Bluenose II when she departed from Expo '67 after playing host for the government of Canada throughout that great international exposition. It was an unfor­ gettable five-day journey down the St. Lawrence River, through the Gulf of St. Lawrence, the Northumberland Strait, and around to Halifax, and Capt. Ellsworth T. Coggins made it seem a whole lot safer than it really was. Wallace Zinck, crew member of Bluenose II, has been as tireless a researcher as he is an intrepid sailor. I am deeply in­ debted to him for help and friendship. Brian Backman, co-author of Bluenose, has been an indis­ pensable source of information and encouragement.

I try and offer an example of weaving together different geographical connections not ordinarily done so prominently in regional geography approaches. In August 2015, I spend a few weeks in one of eastern Canada's Maritime Provinces on the Atlantic [1][2], not quite geared up to do a re-take of Billy Connolly‘s: Journey to the Edge of the World from Halifax, Nova Scotia on the Canadian Atlantic through the notorious Northwest Passage to Vancouver Island on the Canadian Pacific coast, screened by ITV in 2008), so staying put in Nova Scotia itself. On the plane approaching Halifax, a Canadian businessman informed us that this time we should make it since the wind was not against us – unlike at times when the plane approaching from the west cannot make it there, having to return to Ottawa or Montreal. Nova Scotia is one of the Maritime provinces, stretching 500 kilometres from northeast to southwest, with a shoreline of over 6,000 kilometres, with no point further from the sea than 70 kilometres [3].

This Article is brought to you for free and open access by the Journals at Schulich Law Scholars. It has been accepted for inclusion in Dalhousie Law Journal by an authorized editor of Schulich Law Scholars. For more information, please contact [email protected]. Teresa Scassa* Nickled and Dimed: The Dispute over Intellectual Property Rights in the Bluenose II The Bluenose Schooner forms part of the folk history of Nova Scotia, and is a Canadian icon. Popular assumptions that Its name and image formed part of the public domain were put to the test in 2003 when the Bluenose II Preservation Trust Society brought suit against a Halifax business for Infringement of its official marks, trademarks and copyrights relating to the ship and its name. The litigation garnered local and national media attention, and the provincial government soon became involved in the dispute In this article, the author provides some background to the dispute before moving on to consider the merits of the trademark and copyright claims. Because the infringement suit was eventually dropped as part of an agreement between the Trust and the Province of Nova Scotia, the legal issues raised by this case remain unresolved The author argues that the intellectual property claims of the Trust were largely without merit She is critical of the official marks regime under the Trade-marks Act.
