  • 2021 Atikokan Crown Land Route Book
    2021 Atikokan Crown Land Route Book You are receiving this document because your crew has chosen to paddle in the Crown Lands or you are a crew of 9 to 11 people which can only travel in the Crown Lands. The Ontario Ministry of Natural Resources requires a route selection well in advance of your trip. You must select your preferred route by the day your final payment is due so that we may submit it to the Ministry of Natural Resources (MNR) with enough notice for your trip. Canada is comprised of 89% Crown Land. It is all un-owned land, coast to coast in Canada. Locals refer to the area we paddle simply as “the Bush.” The routes in this document allow us to better accommodate your crew and give our Interpreters a general idea of where you want to travel so they may plan accordingly. Please review this document with your crew and make your route selection. When you arrive at the Atikokan base, your crew and Interpreter will have time to decide the specifics of your trip ranging from daily distances, where you’ll camp each night, and options to extend or shorten certain sections of your route. While the exact route may have some flexibility, assigned entry points and exit points will not change and major route edits must be pre-approved. The day length in each section is to be used as a guideline. They do not need to be strictly adhered to. For example, if your crew wants to paddle more distance, they can select a route that suggests more days.

  • Early History of International Falls the Rainy River, Flowing Westward From
    Early History of International Falls The Rainy River, flowing westward from Rainy Lake to Lake ofthe Woods for its entire length, forms the boundary between the state ofMinnesota and the Canadian province ofOntario. International Falls, located 2 ~ miles west ofRainy Lake, the largest ofthe border chain, is relatively young as cities go, yet very old. As a hustling, modem community, it dates back little more than 100 years, but as a geographical location, it was known to explorers long before the Revolutionary War. It is situated on the "Voyageurs Highway," the water and wilderness route which Jacques DeNoyon, Pierre Gaultier, LaVerendre, and many other rugged adventurers traveled in the 17th and 18th Centuries. As key points on the route oftrailblazers between Lake Superior and the vast interior, the sites ofInternational Falls and its Canadian sister city, Fort Frances, became fur trade centers over 200 years ago. For many years the travelers between Winnipeg and Lake Superior over what was known as the Dawson Route had noted the wonderful water falls here, but to Alexander Baker, a sturdy Scotchman, belonged the honor ofpaving the way to the development oftheir power by entering the government land adjoining them on the American side. To him goes the credit for starting the settlement that became International Falls. It was in 1870 the Alexander Baker, prospector, paddled into this area, squatted on the track ofland that today includes much ofthe Boise Solutions LLC site, business district and some ofour residential area. The land at that time had not been surveyed and Baker waited more than 1°years before he gained his homestead title.

  • Celebrating the Beauty of Rainy Lake
    Fall Newsletter, Nov. 2018 Celebrating The Beauty of Rainy Lake Sunset near Copenhagen Island by Kim Embretson Thunderhead North of Goose Island by Kim Embretson President’s Message With fall settled in, the cabins closed up for the season or set up for the winter, it seems a good time to reflect on the year for Rainy Lake Conservancy. In August, we had a successful Annual General Meeting in Fort Frances with many of you. We were engaged with expert presentations on wolf research in Voyageurs Park and how the Rainy Lake water levels are managed and monitored. The new Rule Curve went into effect so, in the year ahead, we should all watch how the water levels are responding to climate events. If there are topics of interest to you for future AGMs, please let me know. It is always a great time to see everyone and share ideas and issues related to the lake. We continue to work with island owners on the protection of their properties and on the legacy they want to leave for their family and for all of us who care about maintaining and sustaining a healthy lake. We are one of the most successful conservancies in Ontario, thanks to everyone’s efforts. We continue to find out interesting ecological information about the properties and their significant species of plants, birds, mammals and of course, our special Red and White Pine forests. If you are interested in learning more about how to protect the natural areas of your property, please reach out to me or anyone on the Board.

  • Saulteaux in the Red River Settlement
    Rich Man, Poor Man, Beggarman, Chief: Saulteaux in the Red River Settlement LAURA L. PEERS University of Winnipeg When Miles Macdonell led the first straggling group of Lord Selkirk's settlers from York Factory to Red River in 1812, he had instructions to establish friendly relations with the Indians around the colony. It was hoped that these relationships would enable the settlers to make use of the Indians' country skills to sustain the colony during its first difficult years. The colony officials were surprised, however, at the apparent eagerness of the Natives' response, particularly that given by a local band of Saulteaux led by Peguis. Not only did the Saulteaux provide food and shelter at various times, they also actively supported the colonists during the North West Company's worst harassment. But their assistance was not merely given out of charity: just as the Europeans planned to use the Saulteaux, so did the Saulteaux have plans to use the colony to their own advantage. This paper examines the relationship between Peguis's band of Saulteaux and the officials of the Red River settlement during the first two decades of the settlement's existence, up to the founding of a Christian agricultural settlement for Peguis's band at Cook's Creek in 1833.1 Previous biographies of Peguis as well as histories of Red River have emphasized the decline of the chief's political influence and his band's economic situation as well as the inevitability and/or wisdom of Peguis's acceptance of a Christian agricultural settlement (Cf. Dempsey 1976, Ross 1856, Thompson 1973).

  • Jean-Baptiste Roy and Charlotte, (Saulteaux) by Chris Boudreau, August 2018
    Jean-Baptiste Roy and Charlotte, (Saulteaux) By Chris Boudreau, August 2018 267. A Case Study Concerning an “Acadian-Métis” Man who “Went West” in the Late-Eighteenth Century: This folder contains documents concerning an “Acadian-Métis” man who “west West” during the peak of the “fur Trade,” “married” a “Saulteaux” woman, and settled in Québec with his wife and children once he retired from this job. This man was named “Jean-Baptiste Roy” and he was born on June 04, 1752 on Île Saint-Jean (present day Prince Edward Island) and was baptized on August 06, 1752. Jean-Baptiste’s parents are recorded in his baptismal record as “René Le Roy” (René Roy) and “Marie Josephe Daigre” (Marie-Josephe Daigle). You’re probably asking, “how can you be certain that this “Jean-Baptiste Roy” is THE Jean-Baptiste that supposedly married a “Saulteaux” woman?” Well, the answer to this lies in Jean-Baptiste and his “Saulteaux” wife’s (who is simply known as “Charlotte”) marriage record. If we turn to the registers of the parish of Immaculée-Conception in Saint-Ours, Québec we find that a “jean-Baptiste Roi” (Jean-Baptiste Roy) of that parish and “Charlotte de la nation des Sauteux” (“Charlotte of the Saulteaux Nation”) were married there on October 22, 1781. Jean-Baptiste’s mother is recorded in this marriage record as “marie joseph dégle” (Marie Josephe Daigle). It’s important to note that there was a “dispense de publication de bans de mariage” (“dispensation of the publication of marriage banns”) involved in this marriage. It’s also important to note that this marriage record also states that the marriage legitimized Jean-Baptiste and Charlotte’s children, who the record states to be (and their ages): 1.
