We plan some work parties this fall to install more boardwalks in the Jim Baillie Nature Reserve to make it more user friendly, and there are several opportunities to help. The building and installation work will be done in October and November on site, probably midweek, but weekends are a possibility if there are people who want to do it on a weekend. We plan to have the lumber delivered to the reserve. We will have to saw the crossbars on site and assemble with nails or screws and carry the sections to their installation locations. We would be grateful to hear from people who have experience constructing boardwalks who might help us plan the work. Experience is not necessary for helpers. We hope some members will bring hand saws, hammers, screw drivers, battery powered equipment etc. Car pooling will be arranged. Please contact Margaret McRae if you are willing to help, and you will be contacted to discuss details.

(date ) AESTRACT This study is concerned with the persistence of human life on the edge of the Canadian Barren Grounds. The Chipewyan make up the largest distinct linguistic and cultural group and are the most easterly among the Northern Athapaskan Indians, or Dene. Over many centuries, the Chipewyan have maintained a form of social life as an edge-of-the-forest people and people of the Barren Grounds to the west of Hudson Bay. The particular aim of this thesis is to attempt, through a survey of the ecological and historical 1iterature , to elucidate something of the traditional adaptive pattern of the Chipewyan in their explcitation of the subarc tic envirorient . Given the fragmentary nature of much of the historical evidence, our limited understanding of the subarctic environment, and the fact that the Chipewyan oecumene (way of looking at life) is largely denied to the modern observer, we acknowledge that this exercise in ecological and historical reconstruction is governed by serious hazards and limitations.

  • Opting out of Cannabis Retail Stores
    OPTING OUT OF CANNABIS RETAIL STORES As per Ontario Regulation 468/18, municipalities must notify the AGCO of their decision to opt out by having the municipal Clerk, Chief Administrative Officer or Mayor send the AGCO Registrar written notification that the municipality has passed a resolution prohibiting cannabis retail stores. This written notification must be sent by email to [email protected] and received by the AGCO no later than January 22, 2019. The notification must include: 1. The official name of the municipality, and; 2. The date the resolution was passed. Once received, the AGCO will acknowledge receipt by email. A municipality that decides to prohibit cannabis retail stores may later reverse its decision; however, under the Cannabis Licence Act, 2018, a decision by a municipality to allow cannabis retail stores is final and may not be subsequently reversed. OPTING IN TO ALLOW RETAIL CANNABIS STORES If at any time before January 22, 2019, a municipality decides it will allow cannabis retail stores within its jurisdiction they are encouraged to notify the AGCO as soon as possible. Early notification to the AGCO, using the [email protected] email, will not change the earliest date that licensed retail stores may open, which remains April 1, 2019. If the AGCO does not receive written notification from a municipality by January 22, 2019 they will be considered to be allowing cannabis retail stores by default. INFORMATION FOR ONTARIO MUNICIPALITIES ABOUT CANNABIS RETAIL STORE LICENSING The maximum 25 Retail Store Authorizations will be allocated in accordance with Ontario Regulation 468/18, which provides for the maximum number of stores in the following Regions: a.
