  • Bill Allen -- Nineteenth Century Aboriginal Farmers of the Madawaska River
    Nineteenth Century Aboriginal Farmers of the Madawaska River Bill Allen, Heritage One Research ABSTRACT Early in the nineteenth century Aboriginal people were practising farming along the Madawaska River. The Madawaska is prominent in several ancient canoe routes between the Ottawa River Watershed and Georgian Bay Watershed so, not surprisingly, the evidence of Aboriginal farming lies at key points along these routes. In the third quarter of the century, as large scale timber operations pushed further into the interior in areas now part of Algonquin Park, Aboriginal farmers were among the first to clear land, plant crops and build homes and other structures. Recent archaeological evidence confirms locations noted in early survey maps and other primary documents and confirms the mutual support of farming and timbering. The evidence challenges us to accept the extent to which Algonquin families embraced farming in the period prior to the formation of Algonquin Park and the arrival of the railway. This paper provides background about Madawaska canoe routes and features as well as illustrations of Aboriginal farming development and the role of key people such as Algonquin Chief Peter Sharbot. RÉSUMÉ Au début du XIXe siècle, les peuples autochtones pratiquaient l’agriculture sur les rives de la Madawaska. Cette rivière joue un rôle important comme ancienne voie de canotage entre le bassin hydrographique de la rivière des Outaouais et celui de la baie Georgienne; il n’est donc pas étonnant que les traces de cultures autochtones se retrouvent à des points clés le long de ces voies. Dans le troisième quart du siècle, avec l’expansion des exploitations de bois de sciage à l’intérieur du territoire, dans des régions faisant partie de l’actuel parc Algonquin, les fermiers autochtones ont été parmi les premiers à défricher la terre, à cultiver, et à construire des maisons et d’autres structures.

  • Meet the Water Rangers Guardians! This Year, with the Help of Great Lakes Guardian Program, We Transformed How Ontarians Interacted with Local Waterbodies
    Meet the Water Rangers Guardians! This year, with the help of Great Lakes Guardian program, we transformed how Ontarians interacted with local waterbodies. Funding provided by An innovative environmental non-profit From the tiniest creek to the biggest lake, Canada is known for its water. Yet average citizens do not realize how their livelihood is connected with their watershed. Even when they learn about beaches closing or fish dying, they do not feel there is anything they can or should do. Water Rangers empowers citizens to learn and take action on water conservation through our user-friendly web platform, water stewardship training, and water quality testkits. Founded in 2015 through Aquahacking, we’re a non- profit organization based in Ottawa aiming to make water science easy to understand. We deepen our impact by providing tools and training to understand, test and protect waterways. About this Funding provided by project Water Rangers Guardians conduct water quality tests, clean up garbage and naturalize shorelines in order to become guardians for their local lake, river or stream! The program engaged community groups over the year, and trained students during excursions. This project w funded by Ontario through the Great Lakes Guardian Fund. Our Theory of Change states that when people learn Temiskaming about, then test water, they are prompted to take action Guardians must be located in the to protect it (Learn --> Test --> Act). Through this grant, thanks to Government of Ontario’s Great Lakes Guardian St. Lawrence River Watershed Fund, we took community and youth groups through this journey by first introducing them to water health, teach- (Ontario side) X ing them how to test water and the value of collecting Sudbury Q baseline data over time, and then prompting them to AX Q K act by collecting bags of garbage and restoring a modi- North Bay QUEBEC fied shoreline by letting it go natural and planting native shrubs.

  • Township of North Frontenac Official Plan
    Memorandum To: Township Council and Members of the Public From: Joe Gallivan, Director, Planning & Economic Development Re: Township of Central Frontenac Official Plan – Second Draft, Version 2 (July 19, 2019) Date Prepared: July 19, 2019 Background The Township of Central Frontenac commenced a review of the existing Official Plan in 2017. The current Plan was approved by the Ontario Ministry of Municipal Affairs in June, 2008. Since the time of approval a new Provincial Policy Statement was issued in 2014 and the County of Frontenac had its first Official Plan approved in 2016. It is important for the Township Official Plan to conform to both of these planning documents. First Draft Official Plan – Spring 2018 The first draft was reviewed by Township Council in May, 2018. Following receipt, a Public Open House was held in Sharbot Lake on Saturday, July 21st, 2018 with approximately seventy (70) residents in attendance. A number of issues were raised by citizens at the Open House: The future design of Highway 7 and the impacts at the Highway 7/Road 38 intersection; The need to ensure that the village of Sharbot Lake be sustainable in the future, and the potential negative impacts of a redesigned, four lane Highway 7; Lake protection; Special protection of White Lake which is the only source of water for the Ministry of Natural Resources and Forestry (MNRF) fish culture station which has been operating since 1933; The future of the K&P Trail and in particular an interest in extending the trail north of Sharbot Lake using the right-of-way owned by the Township; Recognition of the proposal from VIA Rail to construct a high frequency passenger rail system from Toronto to Ottawa with a train stop at Sharbot Lake; The need for affordable housing in the community; Creation of gateways or signage to recognize Sharbot Lake; Environmental Protection – beyond lake protection, there should be consideration for headwaters protection and the need for a watershed protection approach.
