Riverwatchers should consider potential sources and causes of observed phenomena. In a river system, causes can come from activities on land (e.g. deforestation, development/construction), areas upstream, and be the result of events that have happened recently (e.g. water releases from dams, heavy rains and wind). 1.

  • HISTORIC FLOOD RISK on the OTTAWA RIVER Abitibi-Timiskaming Region and Mattawa Down to Lac Deschenes
    Ottawa River Commission de planification Regulation de la régularisation Planning Board de la rivière des Outaouais HISTORIC FLOOD RISK ON THE OTTAWA RIVER Abitibi-Timiskaming region and Mattawa down to Lac Deschenes OTTAWA/GATINEAU, Thursday May 9, 2019 — The Ottawa River Regulating Committee warns that most reservoirs in the Abitibi-Timiskaming region are now filled and that excess waters from these areas are now flowing through the downstream river system. With significant rainfall of 25 to 45 mm forecast to begin today over much of the watershed, water levels on the Ottawa River between Mattawa and Lac Deschenes are expected to continue to increase over the next few days and reach a peak that may exceed previous historic record levels. Based on the current forecast the following conditions are expected along the Ottawa River: • MATTAWA : levels could exceed the historic high of 1960; • PEMBROKE : levels could exceed the historic high of 1960; • LAC COULONGE : levels could exceed the previous historic high of April 29, 2019; • CHATS LAKE : levels could exceed the previous historic high of April 30, 2019; • LAC DESCHENES : levels could exceed the previous historic high of April 30, 2019; • GATINEAU (HULL) TO THE MONTREAL REGION : levels are expected to increase but should remain below the May 1, 2019 peak levels; • ABITIBI-TIMISKAMING REGION: elevated water levels and flows with flooding are expected • Lac des Quinze and Kipawa Reservoir – contact the Centre des opérations gouvernementales du gouvernement du Québec at 1-866-650-1666, [email protected], for information; • Lake Timiskaming – refer to the following press release: https://www.newswire.ca/news-releases/water-level-warning-for-lake-timiskaming- second-notice-818291296.html .

The Métis of the Ottawa River are a telling case, reflective of the disparities entrenched by the provincial border separating Ontario and Quebec. In chronicling the history of this particular Métis community, primarily through unpublished sources, we demonstrate that there is a shared Métis experience and identity in Canada, but that a contiguous community has been arbitrarily divided by a provincial boundary whereby the community is recognized on one side of the divide but not the other.

  • Note on Spelling and the Use of Terms
    Note on Spelling and the Use of Terms In general, I have followed the practice of the Hudson's Bay Company's Archives. 'Timiskaming,' however, is the modern spelling. The original French 'Te1niscamingue' later became 'Temiscaming' or 'Temiskaming,' but I have considered it preferable to use the modern spelling through­ out. Similarly, I have continued to refer to the post as 'Fort Timiskaming,' although after the coalition of 1821 it was often called 'Timiskaming House,' in line with the English practice for the inland posts. Again, for the sake of uniformity, I have used 'Moose Fort' in­ stead of 'Moose Factory.· The term 'voyagers' is employed in the Hudson's Bay Archives for the Company's canoemen, usually Orkneymen or Indians, and I have adopted it in order t.o distinguish them from the French 'voyageurs' of the North West Company. Moreover, the Archives always refer to 'Orkneymen,' never the more correct 'Orcadians.' The English form for modern Lac des Deux Montagnes, Quebec, 'Lake of Two Mountains,' appears consistently in the Archives both for the lake and the post and I have accordingly used it throughout, except for one reference to the modern lake. Surnames and other names were often spelled the way they sounded, not always correctly. William Polson's name, for instance, appears thus both in the Hudson-'s Bay Company's records and on his tombstone, although the correct spelling 'Paulson' was used in the case of his father, William Paulson, a surgeon at Moose Fort. Modern Paul­ son Bay at the head of Lake Timiskaming is named after William Pol­ son and his family.
