  • CHARACTERISTICS and DISTRIBUTION of LAKES 631 Lake Winnipegosis, Lying to the North of Lake Manitoba
    CHARACTERISTICS AND DISTRIBUTION OF LAKES 631 Lake Winnipegosis, lying to the north of Lake Manitoba. at an elevation of 828 feet above sea-level, is about 130 miles long, by 20 miles in maximum breadth. It covers an area of 2080 square miles, and has a maximum depth of 38 feet. It is fed by many small streams from the west, and by the overflow of Lake Dauphin (840 feet above sea-level) through Mossy River. The outlet is by the very indirect way of Waterhen River, through Waterhen Lake, to Lake Manitoba. The total area of the lakes in the Winnipeg basin is 13,500 square miles. Lake Wollaston, 1300 feet above sea-level, is the ultimate source River of the Reindeer River, one of the chief tributaries of the Churchill Churchill. River. It is about 800 square miles in area, and discharges by two outlets—to the north by the Stone River into the extreme eastern arm of Lake Athabasca, and to the south-east by the Cochrane River into Reindeer Lake. Reindeer Lake, 1150 feet above sea-level, is 135 miles long, and has an area of 2490 square miles; the Reindeer River carries its overflow to the Churchill River. The rivers in Labrador are often like strings of lakes, and divide River Rupert. and unite again in their course, while the lakes frequently discharge in two directions. Lake Mistassini, 1350 feet above sea-level, the largest lake, is practically two parallel lakes divided by a range of islands in the centre. The western lake is 90 miles long by 13 to 17 miles wide, and the eastern lake is 60 miles long by 5 to 10 miles wide, the greatest depths being 300 to 400 feet.

The whole of lake Michigan is within United States territory. From the western end of lake Superior to the mouth of the St. Lawrence there is, with the aid of the canal system, a continuous navigable waterway. The total length of the St. Law­ rence river from the head of the St. Louis river to Pointe-des-Monts, at the entrance of the gulf of St. Lawrence, is 1,900 miles. The tributaries of the St. Lawrence, several of which have themselves important tributaries, include the Ottawa river, 685 miles long, the St. Maurice river, 325 miles long, and the Sague- nay (to head of Peribonka), 405 miles long.

Minister’s Message From the grasslands in the southwest to the Taiga Shield lakes of the north, we in Saskatchewan are blessed with richly diverse ecosystems. Over the past few decades, we have come to understand more about the nature of these ecosystems, and how we rely on them to support our economy and our overall quality of life. We have also increased our understanding of the responsibility we bear to assess, protect and improve our province’s environmental health, in balance with our social and economic priorities, for the good of present and future generations. We face a number of challenges regarding our water’s quality and availability. It is up to Saskatchewan people to determine how we will meet these challenges. The Saskatchewan government has taken a leadership role in assessing, protecting and managing our source waters by addressing them at the watershed level. The State of the Watershed Reporting Framework represents a critical step in understanding our relationship with Saskatchewan’s watersheds, as well as our role as stewards of our environment. For the first time in Saskatchewan, this framework will integrate the information collected by numerous provincial and federal agencies and present it in an easily understandable, technically sound report- card format.
