  • Travelling in Time to Cape Breton Island in the 1920S: Protest Songs, Murals and Island Identity
    Travelling in Time to Cape Breton Island in the 1920s: Protest Songs, Murals and Island Identity Richard MacKinnon and Lachlan MacKinnon Abstract Islands are places that foster a unique sense of place-attachment and com- munity identity among their populations. Scholarship focusing on the dis- tinctive values, attitudes and perspectives of ‘island people’ from around the world reveals the layers of meaning that are attached to island life. Lowenthal writes: ‘Islands are fantasized as antitheses of the all-engrossing gargantuan mainstream-small, quiet, untroubled, remote from the busy, crowded, turbu- lent everyday scene. In reality, most of them are nothing like that. …’1 Islands, for many people, are ‘imagined places’ in our increasingly globalised world; the perceptions of island culture and reality often differ. Cape Breton Island, Nova Scotia, in eastern North America, a locale with a rich history of class struggle surrounding its former coal and steel industries, provides an excellent case study for the ways that local history, collective memory and cultural expression might combine to combat the ‘untroubled fantasy’ that Lowenthal describes. History and methodology Coal mining has been an essential part of Cape Breton Island’s landscape since the early-eighteenth century. A steel mill was constructed in Sydney, the island’s largest city, in 1899; this steel plant provided employment for many of the island’s inhabitants throughout the twentieth century. Grid-patterned streets, dotted with company-owned homes, formed around the industrial workplaces in many Cape Breton communities. It was in these communities, from the people employed in the coal mines and steel mill, that distinctive traditions of work and leisure began to emerge.

  • An Organization of the Scientific Investigation of the Indian Place«Nomenclatiire of the Maritime Provinces of Canada by W
    FROM THE TRANSACTIONS OF THE ROYAL SOCIETY OF CANADA THIRD SERIES—1914 VOLUME vin An Organization of the Scientific Investigation of the Indian Place«nomenclatiire of the Maritime Provinces of Canada by W. F. GANONG. M.AHBb.E OTTAWA PRINTED FOR THE ROYAL SOCIETY OF CANADA 19 14 Transactions of The Royal Society of Canada SECTION II SERIES III DECEMBER 1914 VOL. VIII An Organization of the Scientific Investigation of the Indian Place- nomenclature of the Maritime Provinces of Canada, (Fourth Paper). By W. F. GANONG, M.A., Ph.D. (Read by Title May 27, 1914.) This paper is identical in aim and method with its three pre­ decessors, which were published in the immediately foregoing volumes of these Transactions. In a word, I am trying to apply the principles of scientific analysis to a very interesting subject especially prone to doubt and error. The comparative method which I use, explained in the introduction to the first paper, is proving wonderfully successful in solving the problems, as this paper will further illustrate. For convenience of reference I may add that the former papers made analysis of the names Oromocto, Magaguadavic, Upsalquitch, Manan, Nepisiguit, Kouchibouguac, Anagance, Wagan, Pokiok, Penniac, Bocabec, Pentagoet-Penobscot, Pohenegamook, and Cobs- cook, and used the roots thus made available in the analysis of a good many other words, both existent and extinct, of lesser importance. Of these extinct Indian names,—indigenous to the country, ap­ propriate to the places, and often reducible to a highly pleasing form, —the greater number may be revived to obvious advantage when additional place-names become needed in future; and I have tried to suggest simplified and softened forms for such purpose.

    East Bay Hills Wind Project Mi’kmaq Ecological Knowledge Study Prepared for: Cape Breton Hydro Inc. December 2012 – Version 1 M.E.K.S. Project Team Jason Googoo, Project Manager Dave Moore, Author and Research Craig Hodder, Author and GIS Technician Mary Ellen Googoo, MEKS Interviewer John Sylliboy, MEKS Traditionalist Prepared by: Reviewed by: ___________________ ____________________ Craig Hodder, Author Jason Googoo, Manager Executive Summary This Mi’kmaq Ecological Knowledge Study, also commonly referred to as an MEKS or a Traditional Ecological Knowledge Study (TEKS), was developed by Membertou Geomatics Solutions (MGS) on behalf of Cape Breton Hydro Inc. (CBHI) for the proposed East Bay Hills Wind Power Project. This MEKS mandate is to consider land and water areas which the proposed project will utilize, and to identify what Mi’kmaq traditional use activities have occurred, or are currently occurring within, and what Mi’kmaq ecological knowledge presently exists in regards to the area. In order to ensure accountability and ethic responsibility of this MEKS, the MEKS development has adhered to the “Mi’kmaq Ecological Knowledge Protocol”. This protocol is a document that has been established by the Assembly of Nova Scotia Mi’kmaq Chiefs, which speaks to the process, procedures and results that are expected of a MEKS. The Mi’kmaq Ecological Knowledge Study consisted of two major components: • Mi’kmaq Traditional Land and Resource Use Activities , both past and present, • A Mi’kmaq Significance Species Analysis , considering the resources that are important to Mi’kmaq use. The Mi’kmaq Traditional Land and Resource Use Activities component utilized interviews as the key source of information regarding Mi’kmaq use in the Project Site and Study Area.

  • Overview of the Ecology of the Bras D'or Lakes with Emphasis On
    PROC. N.S. INST. SCI. (2002) Volume 42, Part 1, pp. 65-99. OVERVIEW OF THE ECOLOGY OF The Bras d’Or Lakes WITH EMPHASIS ON THE FISH TIMOTHY C. LAMBERT Marine Fish Division Fisheries and Oceans Canada Bedford Institute of Oceanography Dartmouth, Nova Scotia In this review of biological research in the Bras d’Or Lakes, groundfish trawl surveys from 1952, 1967 and 1999/2000 are compared and changes in abundance and distribution of major groundfish species are noted. The most common species were winter flounder (Pseudopleronectes americanus) and cod (Gadus morhua). The biggest change over the nearly 50 year span of these investigations was in the abundance of American plaice (Hippoglossoides platessoides) which used to be very common in the Lakes but were rare in recent surveys. The Lakes contain at least one, and probably two, resident populations of cod and are home to a population of spring-spawning herring. The unique nature of the Bras d’Or Lakes is emphasized in relation to the diversity of species they contain. Glacial relicts, survivors since the last ice age, can be found within a few kilometres of warm temperate species, persisting since the ‘climatic optimum’. The Lakes are ideally suited for ecosystem studies, for in addition to their unique biology, they are readily accessible and can be easily sampled on a daily basis. Ce document passe en revue les recherches biologiques effectuées par le passé dans les lacs Bras d’Or et présente les résultats d’études récentes et en cours. Nous comparons les relevés du poisson de fond réalisés en 1952, en 1967 et en 1999/2000 en notant les changements dans l’abondance et la répartition des principales espèces de poisson de fond.
