    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).

  • 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(1975) 158 This paper was prompted by the continuing emphasis placed by some eth­ nologists on the rather vague historical references to Assiniboine peoples in northwestern Ontario as evidence of their occupation of portions of the area.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.

    jEOX FP)1.0 CANADIAN TRANSPORTATION RESEARCH FORUM Lip LE GROUPE DE RECHERCHES SUR LES TRANSPORTS AU CANADA 20th ANNUAL MEETING PROCEEDINGS TORONTO, ONTARIO MAY 1985 379 THE POTENTIAL IMPACT OF CROW RATE RATIONALIZATION FOR DIVERTING CANADIAN GRAIN EXPORTS THROUGH UNITED STATES GULF PORTS JERRY E. FRUIN LONNIE DICKERSON Department of Agricultural & Applied Economics University of Minnesota, St. Paul, Minnesota BACKGROUND As long as rail rates for Canadian export grain move- ments were restrained by law (the "Crow Rates") to a level substantially below variable costs, there was no incentive for Canadian export grain to be moved by low-cost land or water routes through the United States. However, our pre- vious research (1) indicated that as transport costs in- crease as a result of Crow Rate rationalization, the total logistics costs for some of Canada's export grain shipments could be reduced by utilizing barge transportation on the Mississippi River system or unit trains to deep-water ports on the U.S. Gulf. The objectives of this study were to de- termine the quantities of Canadian export grain that would be moved through the U.S. and the resulting, cost savings if such routes were utilized while minimizing the total logis- tics costs of Canadian grain exports. Our analysis included several combinations of possible rail rate levels and Mis- sissippi barge rate levels. The study looked at actual exports in 1981-82 and projected exports for 1990. Fruin & 1 Dickerson 380 THE GENERAL MODELA/ A linear programming cost minimization transshipment model was constructed. The model provided for moving three export grains from 21 supply regions over five possible routes to North American ports, and then by ocean vessel to 34 importing ports serving 32 importing countries.
