  • Industrial Algoma and the Myth of Wilderness: Algoma Landscapes and the Emergence of the Group of Seven, 1918-1920
    INDUSTRIAL ALGOMA AND THE MYTH OF WILDERNESS: ALGOMA LANDSCAPES AND THE EMERGENCE OF THE GROUP OF SEVEN, 1918-1920 by Allan John Fletcher B.A., The University of British Columbia, 1977 A THESIS SUBMITTED IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF MASTER OF ARTS in THE FACULTY OF GRADUATE STUDIES THE DEPARTMENT OF FINE ARTS ART HISTORY We accept this thesis as conforming to the required standard the University of British Columbia November, v 1989 © Allan Fletcher, 1989 In presenting this thesis in partial fulfilment of the requirements for an advanced degree at the University of British Columbia, I agree that the Library shall make it freely available for reference and study. 1 further agree that permission for extensive copying of this thesis for scholarly purposes may be granted by the head of my department or by his or her representatives.

Department of The University of British Columbia Vancouver, Canada Date QCTOGCfr <3, tiff- DE-6 (2/88) ii ABSTRACT In the summer of 1988, casting around for a thesis topic, I chanced on some photographs which stunned me. They were pictures of various sites in the Algoma territory, a region which up to that time I, like many Canadians, knew only from idyllic paintings by J. E. H. MacDonald and other members of the Group of Seven. The discrepancy between the two sets of images was startling. What the camera revealed: railyards, dockyards, cities and towns, dammed rivers, cavernous mines, mountains of slag, razed forests, huge smelters and gigantic milling operations was in striking contrast to the untouched northern wilderness depicted in works like The? Solemn Land.

Mr. Sportsman, ever stood on the edge of a big "clearing" and mourned the vanishing H forests and the wild life they sheltered? Have you ever sat on the banks of a rapid little river where. perhaps. in days that are gone. you have cast your fly for the speckled beauties that were a-leap in its clear, cool waters-but which waters now. alas. have been harnessed to the turbine and the dynamo? Or. perhaps. vou have retraced your ste'ps toward wooded shores and a lonely highland lake. where. in the past. the brooding silences and "Nature Unspoiled" had ministered to your tired body and drooping spirit-only to find there the march of travel and the touch of civilization which travel brings. But, while "Nature Unspoiled" is constantly retreating, there are still "wilds where the moose and caribou roam;" there are still rollicking streams in whose laughing waters are fish unnumbered; and tucked away in the solitudes are lakes, large and small, deep.

  • Lake Superior Provincial Park: on the Geological Shores of the World's
    Lake Superior Provincial Park On the Geological Shores of the World’s Largest Freshwater Lake Lake Superior, or Gi chi Gamiing (“Great Lake”) to the Ojibwa, is the world’s largest freshwater lake by surface area, and the deepest of the Great Lakes. Lake Superior Provincial Park protects a magnificent wild landscape along the lake’s northern shore. Here, the rocks of the Canadian Shield meet the world’s greatest lake in a grand geological display. This GeoTour guide highlights the geological features of 6 popular sites in the park. A view of Lake Superior from the Trans-Canada Highway north of Katherine Cove. Getting there The GeoTour stops in Lake Superior Provincial Park are accessible from the Trans- Canada Highway (Highway 17) between Agawa Bay and Old Woman Bay. The park’s A map of stops described in this GeoTour. Visitor Centre is located at Agawa Bay, 140 km north of Sault Ste. Marie. Lake Superior Provincial Park Why is the world’s largest freshwater lake in northern Ontario? Hidden beneath the waters of Lake Superior is the geological secret to its existence: a thick sequence of rocks that fills an ancient rift valley. These rocks underlie the entire lake, but only to the west and south are they well exposed on land. Between Sault Ste. Marie and the town of Terrace Bay on Lake Superior’s northern shore, only small pockets of these ancient rift rocks have been preserved from erosion. Instead, this northern lakeshore is dominated by other, older and more resistant rocks of the Canadian Shield.

Appended are detailed accounts by those responsible for specific aspects of the program. MAINTENANCE OF ELECTRICAL BARRIERS Barriers were 'installed and operated on the eight Lake Superior tri- butaries specified in the Memorandum of Agreement. Most of the barriers were activated during the first week in May; however, the Batchawana barrier was activated May 15 and the Pays Plat and Gravel barriers were activated between July 29 and July 3 1 . There were few breakdowns and Little flood damage, so barriers were inoperative for a total of only 90 barrier-hours out of 15,704. See details in Appendix 1. In 1961 2,895 adult sea lampreys were killed and collected at the eight barriers operated as compared with 3,887 collected at the same bar- riers in 1960. No special significance is attached to this decrease in num- bers. CHEMICAL TREATMENT OPERATIONS Surve ys: In 1961, 24 Lake Superior tributaries were surveyed to determine arnmocoete distribution.
