For this reason, the Ministère des Ressources naturelles et de la Faune (MRNF) has designed planning tools and management mechanisms to promote the multi-purpose, balanced and sustainable use of public land to support economic growth in the regions. The introduction of regional lodging development plans (known by their French acronym PRDV, for plans régionaux de développement de la villégiature) in 1993 demonstrated the value of planning land use for a specific purpose. It also confirmed the need for broader-based plans to meet an increasingly diverse range of land uses. The MRNF accordingly extended its approach to include all land uses, local and regional concerns and population needs in the planning process. The result was the regional public land development plan (or PRDTP, the French acronym of Plan régional de développement du territoire public). To introduce this new concept, the MRNF organized an information tour throughout Québec to present it to the organizations concerned. It also set up a joint discussion table in each region to gather information on the concerns and needs of its regional and governmental partners, and to involve them in the decision-making process for public land use. Thanks to this inclusive approach, the PRDTP will become a key tool in the harmonious development of public land based on the economic, social and environmental interests of the region concerned.

  • Introduction Section
    INTRODUCTION 58 2.5 The Fur Trade along the Ottawa River Through the 17th century, an almost endless stream of men plied the Ottawa River on long and dangerous fur‐gathering expeditions. Their contribution to the fur trade was critical to the survival of New France. The Ottawa River was a route of choice for travel to fur‐harvesting areas, and was considered simply to be an extension of the St. Lawrence. The story of the fur trade along the Ottawa River can and should be told from at least two perspectives: that of the Europeans who crossed the ocean to a foreign land, taking great personal risks in pursuit of adventure and profit, and that of the First Nations Peoples who had been living in the land and using its waterways as trade conduits for several thousand years. The very term “fur trade” only refers to half of this complex relationship. From a European perspective, there was a “fur trade,” since animal (primarily beaver) pelts were the commodity in demand. First Nations groups, on the other hand, were engaged in a trade for needles, thread, clothing, fishing hooks, axes, kettles, steel strike‐a‐lights, glass beads, alcohol, and other goods, mainly utilitarian items of metal (Kennedy 88). A more balanced account of the fur trade10 along the Ottawa River begins with the context in which both trading parties chose to engage in an exchange of goods. 2.5.1 European Demand Change in the Ottawa River region in the 17th and 18th centuries was shaped in large part by European demand for beaver pelts.

  • 2.3 Algonquin History in the Ottawa River Watershed
    CULTURAL HERITAGE 17 2.3 Algonquin History in the Ottawa River Watershed James Morrison, Sicani Research and Advisory Services The history of the Ottawa River watershed is inseparable from the history of the Algonquin Nation. Though their territory was once considerably more extensive, the Algonquin heartland has always included the entire length of the Ottawa River, from its headwaters in north-central Quebec to its outlet near Montreal. At present, there are ten federally recognized Algonquin communities, with a total population of approximately 8-10,0001 (for more detailed information on these communities, see Appendix F). Nine of the Algonquin communities are in Quebec. Proceeding from northwest to southeast, these are the Abitibiwinni, Timiskaming, Eagle Village (Kebaouek), Wolf Lake, Long Point (Winneway), Kitcisakik (Grand Lac), Lac Simon, Mitcikinabik Inik (Algonquins of Barriere Lake) and Kitigan Zibi (River Desert) First Nations. In Ontario, members of the Algonquins of Pikwakanagan (at Golden Lake) First Nation make up the only recognized Algonquin community, though three other Ontario First Nation communities, Wahgoshig, Matachewan and Temagami, are of at least partial Algonquin descent. Compared to First Nations in most other parts of Canada, the ten Algonquin communities have very little reserve land. By far the largest parcel is the River Desert Reserve belonging to the Kitigan Zibi Algonquins. Consisting of approximately 43,000 acres, it is located near Maniwaki, Quebec. The Timiskaming First Nation has a Reserve of approximately 5,000 acres at the head of Lake Temiskaming, Quebec, very close to the Ontario border. This Reserve, originally some 69,000 acres in size, was set apart by the Province of Canada in the period 1851-53, as was the River Desert Reserve.
