NS Boating Guide IN JOHN CABOT’S WAKE YOUR VOYAGE TO NOVA SCOTIA CANADA IN JOHN CABOT’S WAKE YOUR VOYAGE TO NOVA SCOTIA CANADA In 1497, AFTER 52 DAYS 4 Italian explorer John Cabot spotted the telltale signs of land – soaring gulls, marine mammals, and an altered horizon. Many historians believe he soon lay anchor off the coast of what is now known AT SEA, as Nova Scotia. Though a path to Asia still eluded him, he had discovered the New World. He and his crew came ashore to replenish their fresh water and food stocks. They unfurled a British Royal Standard. Then — perhaps finding no pubs, golf courses, or festivals — they set sail and steered a course for home. 1 Today’s sailors tend to hang around a bit longer. If John Cabot arrived today, he’d have a much harder time leaving. Some of our most storied golf courses peer magnificently over the edge of the ocean. Thanks to the seas kissing our vineyards, our award-winning wines are the product of a terroir unlike anywhere else. And our luxurious seafood – served at refined urban bistros, quaint pubs, and waterfront huts on the dock – is on offer everywhere you travel. From the bustling modern port city of Halifax, to the living museums of fishing villages that dot the coastline, today’s discriminating sailor and cruiser will find an experience as diverse as it is unique. Indulge in a Maritime experience that you will remember long after you sail away. 2 Photo: Jarrell Whisken 3 Welcome to a multitude PRINCE EDWARD NEW BRUNSWICK ISLAND CHÉTICAMP of cruising destinations N in one stunning place.

A new feature introduced in this edition is a section containing four essays: The HUDSON 70 Expedition by C.R. Mann Earth Sciences Studies in Arctic Marine Waters, 1970 by B.R. Pelletier Analysis of Marine Ecosystems by K.H. Mann Operation Oil by C.S. Mason and Wm. L. Ford They serve as an overview of the focal interests of the past two years in contrast to the body of the Review, which is basically a series of individual progress reports. The search for petroleum on the continental shelves of Eastern Canada and Arctic intensified considerably with several drilling rigs and many geophysical exploration teams in the field. To provide a regional depository for the mandatory core samples required from all drilling, the first stage of a core storage and archival laboratory was completed in 1970. This new addition to the Institute is operated by the Resource Administration Division of the Department of Energy, Mines & Resources. In a related move the Geological Survey of Canada undertook to establish at the Institute a new team whose primary function will be the stratigraphic mapping of the continental shelf.

  • Antigonish Floodrisk and Erosion Climate Change Project
    Antigonish Floodrisk and Erosion Climate Change Project The study commissioned by the Nova Scotia Department of Regional Economic Development and the Nova Scotia Department of the Environment By Dr. Tim Webster, Katie LeBlanc and Nathan Crowell Applied Geomatics Research Group, Centre of Geographic Science Nova Scotia Community College Middleton, NS B0S 1M0 & Acadia University, Wolfville, NS 1 Executive Summary The Canadian coastlines have been assessed for sensitivity to future sea-level change and it has been determined that the east coast of Canada is highly vulnerable to erosion and flooding. The third assessment of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) indicates that there will be an increase in mean global sea-level from 1990 to 2100 between 0.09 m and 0.88 m (Church et al. 2001). The latest IPCC Assessment Report 4 (AR4) has projected global mean seal-level to rise between 0.18 and 0.59 m from 1990 to 2095 (Meehl et al. 2007). However as Forbes et al. (2009) point out, these projections do not account for the large ice sheets melting and measurements of actual global sea-level rise are higher than the previous predictions of the third assessment report. Rhamstorf et al. (2007) compared observed global sea-level rise to that projected in the third assessment report and found it exceeded the projections and have suggested a rise between 0.5 and 1.4 m from 1990 to 2100. Thus, Forbes et al. (2009) use the upper limit of 1.3 m as a precautionary approach to sea-level rise projections in the Halifax region.

  • The Persecution of Pilot Mackey Janet Maybee
    The Persecution of Pilot Mackey Janet Maybee Francis Mackey était le pilote de port affecté au Mont Blanc, vapeur français chargé d'explosifs qui ont détoné à Halifax en décembre 1917 à la suite d'une collision avec le navire norvégien l'Imo. La participation de Mackey dans le désastre et l'enquête qui a suivi sont brièvement décrites dans cet essai qui se concentre, cependant, sur un aspect jusqu'ici obscur de l'histoire de Mackey: sa lutte pendant quatre ans, après le relâchement d'accusations criminelles contre lui, pour faire revalider sa licence qu'il avait volontairement mise en suspens, et le refus inflexible de C.C. Ballantyne, ministre de marine, de le réintégrer dans son emploi professionnel. Il semblerait que les autorités fédérales ont trouvé en Mackey la facilité de détourner la colère publique qui aurait peut-être pu exposer leurs défaillances en matière de contrôle de trafic portuaire menant au désastre. "He has been openly and with dramatic intensity, and premeditated insult, accused of perjury...The bones of the departed have been drawn before him, and the tolling of the funeral bells have been brought to his attention, and he has been charged in the most direct, emphatic and insulting fashion of abusing his conscience and his oath..."1 Humphrey Mellish For nearly a century, Halifax harbour pilot Francis Mackey has borne blame for the catastrophic explosion of 6 December 1917. Mackey chanced to be the local pilot assigned to Mont Blanc, the heavily-laden French munitions ship that blew up after a collision with the Norwegian Imo.
