  • Fish Culture Development
    FISH CULTURE DEVELOPMENT A Report of the Fish Culture Development Branch of the Conservation and Development Service , 1950 Reprinted from the Twenty.-first Annual Report of the Department of Fisheries of Canada FISH CULTURE DEVELOPMENT ITH fisheries, as with other natural resources capable of self-perpetuation, W conservation is of prime concern. Since fish is a "free" resource, man may catch too many, and deplete the stocks to a point where fishing is no longer profit, able. Therefore, controls are necessary to permit the fisherman to take the maxi­ mum catches on a continuing year after year basis. In the broad analysis Canada follows two definite courses of conservation: 1. The enforcement of various types of catch restrictions to ensure sufficient natural seeding for a sustained maximum yield. 2. To apply where possible, cultural methods of all types both to improve environmental conditions for natural propagation and also to use artificial methods in cases where an aid is needed. The Department's work in this connection is carried out by the newly-formed Conservation and Development Service. One branch of the Service-the Protec­ tion Branch-directs the work of the Protection Officers on both coasts. Another branch of the Service-the Fish Culture Development Branch-is responsible for the construction of fishways to enable fish to by-pass darn:s and fqr the maintenance of hatcheries to re-stock waters in federally administered areas. These two services are closely integrated. The Protection Officers enforce the regulations pertaining to restricted areas, closed seasons, limitations in location and types of gear.

  • The Geography of Haliburton's Nova Scotia
    Gerald T. Rimmington THE GEOGRAPHY OF HALIBURTON'S NOVA SCOTIA ! i 1 THERE IS NO MORE FASCINATING ACCOUNT of Nova Scotia in the early nineteenth century than that given by Thomas Chandler Haliburton. In the course of his duties as a distinguished barrister-at-law and member of the Nova Scotia House of Assembly, Haliburton travelled many times throughout the main­ land section of the province. During the early 1820s he compiled his observa· tions of the contemparary scene, drawing upon his detailed knowledge of history, on such statistics as existed,1 and on his own experiences. His com­ pendium appeared, in brief form, in 1823, and a further edition was published in 1825. The finished work, in two volumes with a combined total of 798 pages, and entitled An Historical and Statistical Account of Nova Scotia, ap­ peared in 1829. There is much in it to interest the geographer. Haliburton makes clear from the beginning a distinction between the rugged drowned coastline in the south, with its numerous rias and drumlin islands, and the more hospitable northern coastlands. The south shore he describes as "generally inhospitable, presenting a bold rocky shore, and a poor sterile soil, clothed with a thin and stunted growth of Birch and Spruce." The north is presented as "soft and free from rocks. The shores are every­ where indented with harbours, rivers, coves and bays." The forested Pre­ Cambrian and Cambrian structures of the Nova Scotia "spine" were largely ignored. With the exception of the Rawdon Hills there were few settlers there, and Rawdon was noted for its impoverishment and its economic reli­ ance upon supplying hay and straw to the stables of H alifax.

  • Lighthouse Route
    Lighthouse Route Halifax to Chester The first leg of your journey will take you southwest along Highway 333 to Whites Lake, on your way to Peggy's Cove's timeless beauty. Continue on Route 3 until you enter Lewis Lake Provincial Park, which is just before Upper Tantallon. Since the mid-nineteenth century, Hubbards, a full- service community at the mouth of St. Margaret's Bay, has been a popular tourist destination. Before arriving in East River, the Lighthouse Route takes you along the Aspotogan Peninsula's ruggedly beautiful coastline, passing through small coastal villages like Blandford, Bayswater, and Northwest Cove. The Lighthouse Route continues to Chester, a historic seaside town known for sailing, tennis, stately homes, studio galleries, and a laid-back attitude. Chester is also the starting point for a trip to the Tancook Islands at the mouth of Mahone Bay, one of Nova Scotia's hidden gems. From Chester, a passenger ferry service operates for 8 kilometres (5 miles) to the islands of Big Tancook and Little Tancook. Driving Distance – 138 KM Chester to Bridgewater (via Lunenburg) Today's colour and coastal elegance will not let you down. The Lighthouse Route continues to Martin's River, where an elegant shoreline park provides spectacular views of the bay and its islands. The Lighthouse Route continues on Route 3 to Mahone Bay from here. The view will entice you to pull over, park your car, and take a walk along the water. A exclusive array of studios and galleries of some of Canada's finest artists and craftspeople, specialty and general- needs shops, a bar, restaurants and cafes, and a visitor information centre line the narrow streets.

  • Recovery Strategy for the Atlantic Whitefish, Coregonus Huntsmani
    Species at Risk Act Recovery Strategy Series Recovery Strategy for the Atlantic Whitefish (Coregonus huntsmani) in Canada Atlantic Whitefish December 2006 About the Species at Risk Act Recovery Strategy Series What is the Species at Risk Act (SARA)? SARA is the Act developed by the federal government as a key contribution to the common national effort to protect and conserve species at risk in Canada. SARA came into force in 2003 and one of its purposes is “to provide for the recovery of wildlife species that are extirpated, endangered or threatened as a result of human activity.” What is recovery? In the context of species at risk conservation, recovery is the process by which the decline of an endangered, threatened or extirpated species is arrested or reversed, and threats are removed or reduced to improve the likelihood of the species’ persistence in the wild. A species will be considered recovered when its long-term persistence in the wild has been secured. What is a recovery strategy? A recovery strategy is a planning document that identifies what needs to be done to arrest or reverse the decline of a species. It sets goals and objectives and identifies the main areas of activities to be undertaken. Detailed planning is done at the action plan stage. Recovery strategy development is a commitment of all provinces and territories and of three federal agencies — Environment Canada, Parks Canada Agency and Fisheries and Oceans Canada — under the Accord for the Protection of Species at Risk. Sections 37–46 of SARA (http://www.sararegistry.gc.ca/the_act/default_e.cfm) spell out both the required content and the process for developing recovery strategies published in this series.
