These regions are Bas-Saint-Laurent, Gaspésie, Côte-Nord and the Îles de la Madeleine. A vast territory bordered by 3000 kilometres (1900 miles) of coastline, which alternates between wide fine- sand beaches and small, rocky bays or impressive cliffs, Québec maritime has a long tradition that has been shaped by the ever-present sea. This tradition is expressed in the lighthouses that dot the coast, diverse and abundant wildlife, colourfully painted houses, gatherings on the quays and especially the joie de vivre of local residents. There are places you have to see, feel and experience… Québec maritime is one of them! Did You Know That… The tallest lighthouse in Canada is in Cap-des-Rosiers and is 34 metres (112 feet) high? Jacques Cartier named the Lower North Shore “the land of many isles” because this region’s islands were too numerous to name individually? Lake Pohénégamook is said to hide a monster named Ponik? The Manicouagan impact crater is the fifth largest in the world and can be seen from space? Legendary Percé Rock had three arches in Jacques Cartier’s time? The award winning movie Seducing Dr.

  • Caring for Canada
    312-329_Ch12_F2 2/1/07 4:50 PM Page 312 CHAPTER 12 Caring for Canada hink of a natural area that is special to you. What if Tthere was a threat to your special place? What could you do? You might take positive steps as David Grassby did recently. David Grassby was 12 years old when he read an article about environmental threats to Oakbank Pond near his home in Thornhill, Ontario. David decided to help protect the pond and its wildlife. David talked to classmates and community members. He discovered that writing letters and informing the media are powerful tools to get action. He wrote many letters to the Town Council, the CBC, and newspapers. He appeared on several TV shows, including The Nature of Things hosted by David Suzuki. In each of his letters and interviews, David explained the problems facing the pond and suggested some solutions. For example, people were feeding the ducks. This attracted too many ducks for the pond to support. David recommended that the town install signs asking people not to feed the ducks. The media were able to convince people to make changes. David Grassby learned that it is important to be patient and to keep trying. He learned that one person can make a difference. Today, Oakbank Pond is a nature preserve, home to many birds such as ducks, Canada geese, blackbirds, and herons. It is a peaceful place that the community enjoys. 312 312-329_Ch12_F2 2/1/07 4:50 PM Page 313 Canada: Our Stories Continue What David Grassby did is an example of active citizenship.

Plan your perfect Ontario fall escape now! Ontario is the premier destination to enjoy the annual spectacle of summer’s lush greenery transformed into a mosaic of magnificent rich shades of red, orange and yellow. It is also harvest time, the perfect time to hop into the car to discover local flavours at farmers markets, orchards and pumpkin patches, and take in the sights and special events. Go online for lots of great suggestions on how to enrich your fall colour touring experience. With the weekend’s fabulous warm weather forecast, now is the time to get out and enjoy the fall colours.

From Muskoka – which is reporting an 80% change – south, and into eastern Ontario, the reds and oranges of the sugar maples are now much more prominent.

  • Offshore Oil & Gas in BC: a Chronology of Activity
    Offshore Oil & Gas in BC: A Chronology of Activity 1913-1915 First well drilled in the Queen Charlotte Basin by BC Oilfields Limited at Tian Bay, western Graham Island. Reported minor gas and oil shows below 1220 feet. 1949-1951 Eight wells were drilled onshore Graham Island. No discoveries were reported. 1959 British Columbia declares a Crown reserve over oil and gas resources in the area east of a line running north-south three miles seaward of Queen Charlotte Islands and Vancouver Island. Under the Petroleum and Natural Gas Act, exploration permits over oil and gas in a Crown reserve can only be granted through public auction. 1962-1966 British Columbia Crown reserve over offshore oil and gas resources is cancelled to encourage companies to apply for exploration permits. 1966 British Columbia reinstates the Crown reserve over offshore oil and gas resources to the area beginning at the low-water mark seaward to the outer limits of Canada's Territorial Sea and to that area of the Continental Shelf capable of being exploited. 1966-1969 Canada withholds exploration approval in the Strait of Georgia until a federal-private study on the effects of seismic exploration on fish stocks is complete. 1967 British Columbia declares a Crown reserve over offshore mineral and placer minerals in same area as offshore oil and gas Crown reserve. 1967 The Supreme Court of Canada decides that the Territorial Sea off British Columbia, outside of bays, harbours and inland waters, belongs to Canada. 1967 Shell Canada begins a drilling program off Barkley Sound, Vancouver Island. Over the next two years, 14 wells are drilled in the offshore in the region from Barkley Sound north through Queen Charlotte Sound and Hecate Strait.
