We are inspired by the bravery of our soldiers at Normandy and moved by the words of John McCrae’s "In Flanders Fields." We are amazed at the vision of Louis-Joseph Papineau and Sir Wilfrid Laurier. We are enchanted by the paintings of Emily Carr and the writings of Lucy Maud Montgomery. We look back in awe at the wisdom of Sir John A. Macdonald and Sir George-Étienne Cartier. We are moved to tears of joy by the humour of Stephen Leacock and tears of gratitude for the courage of Tecumseh. We hold in high regard the determination of Emily Murphy and Rev. Josiah Henson to overcome obstacles which stood in the way of their dreams. We give thanks for the work of the Victorian Order of Nurses and those who organ- ized the Underground Railroad. We think of those who suffered and died at Grosse Île in the dream of reaching a new home.

  • The Best of the Arctic
    THE BEST OF THE ARCTIC SVALBARD NORWAY ICELAND GREENLAND & CANADA NEW! FABLED LANDS ABOARD NATIONAL GEOGRAPHIC EXPLORER AND NATIONAL GEOGRAPHIC ORION I 2019/2020 TM DEAR EXPLORER, There are 8 countries that have territory in the Arctic—defined as land and sea north of 66º 33’N latitude. And between May and September 2019 our two polar vessels, National Geographic Explorer and National Geographic Orion will explore all of the sea-bordering countries. Only Finland and Sweden have landlocked Arctic terrain. Just to give some scale to this vast wilderness: ⊲ Population approx. 1.35 people per square mile in the Arctic ⊲ Population approx. 74,000 people per square mile in Manhattan Using the Manhattan comparison really puts the Arctic into perspective: it’s literally the wildest place on Earth to still have some form of permanent human settlement. What it has in abundance there, however, is non-human life. Plankton-rich seas, great colonies of seabirds, bears—polar bears in some parts and brown bears in others—seven different species of pinnipeds including the great walrus; musk oxen; reindeer in some areas; and whales of many different kinds. There are indigenous people who merit our interest and deserve our admiration, as they conduct their lives in what is, for about half the year, the harshest of possible environments. There are the great mountain ranges and icebergs, some the size of 12 government buildings. And of course, there is the ice—the sea ice which provides hunting grounds for polar bears and pupping grounds for seals. The Arctic is an AWESOME part of our planet, which ideally, every human being should, at some point in their lives, experience.

  • A Catch History for Atlantic Walruses (Odobenus Rosmarus Rosmarus)
    A catch history for Atlantic walruses (Odobenus rosmarus rosmarus ) in the eastern Canadian Arctic D. Bruce Stewart 1,* , Jeff W. Higdon 2, Randall R. Reeves 3, and Robert E.A. Stewart 4 1 Arctic Biological Consultants, Winnipeg, Manitoba, R3V 1X2, Canada * Corresponding author; Email: [email protected] 2 Higdon Wildlife Consulting, 912 Ashburn Street, Winnipeg, Manitoba, R3G 3C9, Canada 3 Okapi Wildlife Associates, 27 Chandler Lane, Hudson, Quebec, J0P 1H0, Canada 5 501 University Crescent, Freshwater Institute, Fisheries and Oceans Canada, Central and Arctic Region, Winnipeg, Manitoba, R3T 2N6, Canada ABSTRACT Knowledge of changes in abundance of Atlantic walruses ( Odobenus rosmarus rosmarus ) in Canada is important for assessing their current population status. This catch history collates avail - able data and assesses their value for modelling historical populations to inform population recov - ery and management. Pre-historical (archaeological), historical (e.g., Hudson’s Bay Company journals) and modern catch records are reviewed over time by data source (whaler, land-based commercial, subsistence etc.) and biological population or management stock. Direct counts of walruses landed as well as estimates based on hunt products (e.g., hides, ivory) or descriptors (e.g., Peterhead boatloads) support a minimum landed catch of over 41,300 walruses in the eastern Canadian Arctic between 1820 and 2010, using the subsample of information examined. Little is known of Inuit catches prior to 1928, despite the importance of walruses to many Inuit groups for subsistence. Commercial hunting from the late 1500s to late 1700s extirpated the Atlantic walrus from southern Quebec and the Atlantic Provinces, but there was no commercial hunt for the species in the Canadian Arctic until ca.

Inuit recognize that bowhead whales were numerous prior to 1960s, when several bowheads were harvested in this area.

They believe that decades, they have seen greater ancestral Inuit whaling did not numbers. Some reported that have any significant impact on the increase since the 1960s bowhead whale populations. has been fairly steady.
