  • 2.6 Settlement Along the Ottawa River
    INTRODUCTION 76 2.6 Settlement Along the Ottawa River In spite of the 360‐metre drop of the Ottawa Figure 2.27 “The Great Kettle”, between its headwaters and its mouth, the river has Chaudiere Falls been a highway for human habitation for thousands of years. First Nations Peoples have lived and traded along the Ottawa for over 8000 years. In the 1600s, the fur trade sowed the seeds for European settlement along the river with its trading posts stationed between Montreal and Lake Temiskaming. Initially, French and British government policies discouraged settlement in the river valley and focused instead on the lucrative fur trade. As a result, settlement did not occur in earnest until the th th late 18 and 19 centuries. The arrival of Philemon Source: Archives Ontario of Wright to the Chaudiere Falls and the new British trend of importing settlers from the British Isles marked the beginning of the settlement era. Farming, forestry and canal building complemented each other and drew thousands of immigrants with the promise of a living wage. During this period, Irish, French Canadians and Scots arrived in the greatest numbers and had the most significant impact on the identity of the Ottawa Valley, reflected in local dialects and folk music and dancing. Settlement of the river valley has always been more intensive in its lower stretches, with little or no settlement upstream of Lake Temiskaming. As the fur trade gave way to farming, settlers cleared land and encroached on First Nations territory. To supplement meagre agricultural earnings, farmers turned to the lumber industry that fuelled the regional economy and attracted new waves of settlers.

  • Ottawa River Timeline
    OTTAWA RIVER TIMELINE 3 000 BC Continental glacier begins to melt. 000 BC Ottawa Valley is covered by an inland sea called the Champlain Sea. 8 000 BC Inland sea has receded. 6 500 BC Earliest evidence of human presence along the Ottawa River watershed. Palaeo-Indian Period named for the people who made distinctive long and slender stone lance points. 4 500 BC Known as Archaic Period, development of culture referred to as the eastern Laurentian Culture that coincides with first appearance of polished stone and copper tools. Ottawa River gradually drops to traditional level and forests of white pine become mixed forests of hemlock, pine and hardwoods. 500 BC A new period in the Ottawa Valley begins with the appearance of modified tempered clay used to produce durable cooking and storage vessels. Known as the Woodland Period, it lasts until the arrival of Europeans, circa 600 AD. 535 AD Jacques Cartier climbs Mount Royal and sees a great river extending towards the western horizon. 608 Etienne Brulé is the first European to explore Ottawa River. 63 Samuel de Champlain travels up-river to vicinity of present-day Pembroke. Champlain meets Tessouat, Chief of the “Algoumequins” (Algonquins) on today’s Morrison Island. 65 Ottawa River is known as “Kit-chi’sippi” or Great River; later called “La Grande Rivière du Nord” by French explorers. 647 Compagnie des Habitants allows 40 young men to trade privately with Native peoples provided they sell furs back to company. 652 The Compagnie des Habitants trade policy is ignored; goods are treaded where most profitable by men known as “les coureurs de bois”.

  • 5.3 Highlights in the Settlement History of Renfrew County
    OTTAWA RIVER COMMUNITY HERITAGE 218 5.3 Highlights in the Settlement History of Renfrew County Len Hopkins Co‐Chair, Ottawa River Heritage Designation Committee Renfrew County follows the Ottawa River from Arnprior all the way to the Township of Head, Clara and Maria upriver from Rolphton. It is the largest county in Ontario. Before human presence, the Champlain Sea stretched as far inland as Deep River. The original shoreline of the Champlain Sea passes through Petawawa. The modern settlement history of Renfrew County begins with today’s Arnprior, Braeside, and McNab along the Ottawa River. In 1825, McNab Township included today’s Arnprior, Braeside, and McNab. It consisted of a strip of land about six miles wide along Lac des Chats (Shaw), which was a deep clay deposit dating from the Champlain Sea. While much of McNab Township had excellent agricultural land, in parts of the township the surface was a challenge to farm. Chief Archibald McNab, the 13th Chief of Clan McNab, immigrated from Killin, Scotland, to Upper Canada in 1823. He then went to York (later Toronto), the provincial capital and proposed to the Government that he settle a township with his clansmen. The Laird of McNab was given directions to a surveyed township which he later called McNab. The Laird himself was granted 1200 acres. He then wrote to his cousin in Scotland, Dr. Hamilton, to send out settlers. Laird McNab built Kinnell Lodge near the mouth of the Madawaska River, in today’s Town of Arnprior. Later he built Waba Cottage at White Lake, which has been restored.

Il s’agit de l’un des plus gros poissons d’eau douce au Canada. On le reconnaît à ses grosses plaques osseuses et à son museau large et rond. Son aire de répartition regroupe les importants lacs et rivières qui vont du bassin versant de la rivière Saskatchewan en Alberta, à ceux de la baie d’Hudson et du fleuve Saint-Laurent au Québec, jusqu’au cours inférieur du fleuve Mississippi au sud. Sa répartition est étendue en Ontario, où on le recense dans tous les grands bassins versants de la province. Il revêt d’ailleurs une importance particulière pour les Autochtones. L’Ontario a identifié trois unités désignables (UD) en fonction de la différenciation génétique au sein de l’espèce (COSEPAC, sous presse), du plan d’eau occupé et de la séparation physique des populations : rivière Saskatchewan et fleuve Nelson, Sud de la baie d’Hudson et de la baie James, et Grands Lacs et haut Saint-Laurent. En Ontario, le nombre d’individus dans deux des UD (populations de la rivière Saskatchewan et du fleuve Nelson et celles des Grands Lacs et du haut Saint-Laurent) a chuté de plus de 90 % en 100 ans, principalement en raison de la pêche commerciale, de la pollution de l’eau, des obstacles à la migration que sont les barrages hydroélectriques et de la menace que posent les activités de gestion de l’eau et de régularisation du débit, ces dernières pouvant restreindre la disponibilité de la nourriture.
