    330 Pictou Antigonish Highlands Profile

    A NOVA SCOTIA DEPARTMENT OF NATURAL RESOURCES PUBLICATION Ecodistrict Profile Ecological Landscape Analysis Summary Ecodistrict 330: Pictou Antigonish Highlands An objective of ecosystem-based management is to manage landscapes in as close to a natural state as possible. The intent of this approach is to promote biodiversity, sustain ecological processes, and support the long-term production of goods and services. Each of the province’s 38 ecodistricts is an ecological landscape with distinctive patterns of physical features. (Definitions of underlined terms are included in the print and electronic glossary.) This Ecological Landscape Analysis (ELA) provides detailed information on the forest and timber resources of the various landscape components of Pictou Antigonish Highlands Ecodistrict 330. The ELA also provides brief summaries of other land values, such as minerals, energy and geology, water resources, parks and protected areas, wildlife and wildlife habitat. This ecodistrict has been described as an elevated triangle separating the Northumberland Lowlands Ecodistrict 530 of Pictou County from the St. Georges Bay Ecodistrict 520 lowlands of Antigonish County. Generally, the highlands at their summit become a rolling plateau best exemplified by The Keppoch, an area once extensively settled and farmed. The elevation in the ecodistrict is usually 210 to 245 metres above sea level and rises to 300 metres at Eigg Mountain. The total area of Pictou Antigonish Highlands is 133,920 hectares. Private land ownership accounts for 75% of the ecodistrict, 24% is under provincial Crown management, and the remaining 1% includes water bodies and transportation corridors. A significant portion of the highlands was settled and cleared for farming by Scottish settlers beginning in the late 1700s with large communities at Rossfield, Browns Mountain, and on The Keppoch.
  • Simon Gibbons

    Simon Gibbons

    Simon Gibbons Simon Gibbons was the first Inuit priest in the Church of England. He was born on June 21, 1851 in Forteau, Labrador – about 13 km north east of the Quebec border. His mother died in childbirth. At five years old Simon was sent by the Anglican Missionary in Forteau to the Church of England Widows and Orphans Asylum (CEWOA) in St. John’s, Newfoundland. While there, he showed “intellect of no ordinary degree” and was placed in the Church of England Academy when he was nine. Two years later, Sophia Mountain, the Lady Superintendent of the orphanage (CEWOA) took Simon under her care. Then, when Simon was 15, she married Edward Field, the Bishop of Newfoundland in 1867. So, in just a few years, Simon went from being an orphan to the Bishop’s Court. Following his graduation from the Academy, Simon began to prepare to take an active part in the ministry of the Church. He became part of a group who trained and worked as Lay Readers, Teachers, and Catechists in Newfoundland’s outports. On one occasion during this time, he was leading a Sunday morning Service in the large kitchen of a fisherman’s house. It was packed with people, and Simon was standing in the place of honour by the roaring stove. Just as he began the sermon, the lady of the house stood up in her place, by the door, waving her raised hand. “Hold a minute, Parson!” she cried. Simon stopped. The lady continued, “Sal, the puddin’!” Sal, seated on the other side of the stove, arose, took from the dresser the Sunday dumpling in its cloth and popped it into the pot boiling on the stove.

    OPEN FUNDRAISING – EVENT REPORT May 31 (Wolfville) The Liberal Party of Canada has moved forward with the strongest standards in federal politics for more open and transparent party fundraising events, and is challenging other parties to do the same. The Liberal Party believes that fundraising events with Ministers, Party Leaders, and Leadership candidates as special guests should meet even stronger standards for transparency, including advance posting, hosting in publicly accessible spaces, timely reporting of event details and guests, and the facilitation of media coverage. The Liberal Party’s own independent steps were implemented in advance of legislation that has been proposed by the government.
