Many Nova Scotians still By Joan Dawson preferred water routes, and those "roads" that did exist were often little more than blazed trails not fit for wheeled vehicles. But it wasn’t long before roads were established around the province to allow for a steady increase in traffic and sophistication of vehicles. Author Joan Dawson has used nineteenth-century maps and surveys to not only trace the paths of these old roads, but to explore the residents and businesses that sprang up along them. She follows the roads out of Halifax to Win- dsor and Truro (the "Great Roads") as well as the oldest post roads along the Annapolis Valley, the South Shore, northern and eastern Nova Scotia, and even Cape Breton. These earliest highways, now mostly forgotten or buried in wilderness, remind us of the hard-working crews and sur- veyors who defied geographical difficulties to make travel- ling easier for Nova Scotia’s residents. Featuring 40 maps and illustrations, Nova Scotia’s Lost Highways is a fasci- nating history of early travel in the province. THE MAPMAKER’S LEGACY This book is a follow-up to Joan Dawson’s earlier book The Ninteenth-Century Maps of Nova Scotia Mapmakers’ Eye, which shows how early maps of Nova by Joan Dawson Scotia reflect the province’s establishment under first French, then English colonial rule.

JEAN Acadians Move to Louisiana In 1652, Michel Richard, a native of the province of Saintonge, France,5 arrived in Acadie as a soldier with an expedition sponsored by Emmanuel LeBorgne. LeBorgne was a speculator and a very rich merchant in France who had invested heavily in the Acadian business enterprises of Charles de Menou d'Aulnay (1604–1650). D’Aulnay had been involved in what has ingloriously been called the “Acadian Civil War.” It seems that King Louis XIV approved overlapping land grants to an entrepreneur named Charles de Saint-Étienne de la Tour and d'Aulnay. Their business differences were exacerbated by deep personal and religious hatred (de la Tour was Protestant and d’Aulnay was Catholic). The most vicious fighting took place from about 1640-45 and did not end until d'Aulnay successfully expelled la Tour from his claims. La Tour fled to Quebec. The matter got even more complicated in 1650 when d’Aulnay died by accidental drowning and LeBorgne laid formal claim to the estate.

    YB299A ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT ASSESSMENT REPORT FOR MODIFICATIONS TO THE PETITCODIAC RIVER CAUSEWAY Submitted to: New Brunswick Department of Supply and Services Fredericton, New Brunswick Submitted by: AMEC Earth & Environmental, A Division of AMEC Americas Limited Fredericton, New Brunswick September 30, 2005 TE23520.4 NB Department of Supply and Services EIA Report Modifications to the Petitcodiac River Causeway September 2005 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Background This document is the Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) Report for the Modifications to the Petitcodiac River Causeway Project. The Petitcodiac River causeway (“causeway”) is a gated dam structure with an installed vertical slot fishway that was built across the Petitcodiac River between the City of Moncton and the Town of Riverview. Figure 1 shows the location of the Petitcodiac River and Figure 2 shows an aerial view of the causeway. Completed in 1968, the causeway was intended to create a second transportation link between the two communities, offer flood protection for farmland between the causeway and the head of tide at Salisbury, and create a freshwater headpond with potential for recreation and as an industrial water source. A bridge would have achieved the transportation objective, but not the other benefits. As early as 1961, it was recognized by Fisheries and Oceans Canada (“DFO”) that fish passage would be an issue if a causeway was built across the Petitcodiac River. Consequently, DFO required that a fishway be included in the structure. However, the construction of the causeway with the fishway resulted in fish passage issues from the outset. The fishway proved ineffective for all fish species that require passage for life cycle purposes, including the Inner Bay of Fundy Atlantic salmon that is now also protected under the Species at Risk Act because of declining numbers.

    The Dispossession of the Míkmaq Indians from Chignecto to Elsipogtog1: A Case Study Analysis of the Health Determinants of the Physical Environment by Patrick J. Augustine A thesis submitted to the Faculty of Graduate and Postdoctoral Affairs in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Indigenous and Canadian Studies Carleton University Ottawa, Ontario © 2021, Patrick J. Augustine 1 The community uses the Pacifique orthography, while the Francis-Smith system spells it L’sipuktuk (Sable & Francis, 2012). Abstract Traditionally, the Míkmaq enjoyed an interconnected relationship with the land, harvesting what they needed from the earth and the ocean, guided by the concept of Netukulimk, the practice of sustainability. Upon the arrival of European settlers, new trade practices were introduced, and what was once plentiful was quickly depleted. Although the original inhabitants were assured that their lands would be protected by agreements and treaties, these assurances proved to be false, and the traditional relationship with the land was threatened, as the Míkmaq—presaging the fate of most Indigenous Peoples in Canada—were dispossessed of their historical lands and forced to live on reserves; many of them far away from the environments to which they had had biological and spiritual ties. Land is central to our understanding of current Indigenous health issues; centering around how the Míkmaq traditionally employed land and resources, what changes in that relationship were brought about by colonization, and how their removal to reserves influenced their relationship vis-à-vis their environment. In addressing the ways that land policies, post-first contact, were developed and implemented over time, it is possible and necessary to juxtapose that history with the story of the forced mobilization of the Míkmaq and examine the effects that the dispossession of land had upon their livelihood and economic activity.

Author: Birgitta Brown Language: English Department: English Department, University of Gothenburg, Box 200, SE-405 30 Gothenburg Anglo-French relations have had a significant influence on the fiction created in Canada’s Maritime Provinces. The 18th century was a period of colonial wars. Contacts between the English and French in Canada were established and de- termined by the hostilities between the two colonizing nations, France and Great Britain. The hostilities passed on a sense of difference between the two nations through situations of othering. Contacts, however, always generate transcultural processes which transcend or mediate cultural difference. Othering and transculturation are closely interdependent phenomena acting in conjunc- tion. They work in processes manifesting themselves in so-called contact zones both during the colonial era and in a postcolonial context. This study investi- gates how processes of othering and transculturation are explored and dis- cussed in a number of Maritime novels, Anglophone and Acadian, published in different decades of the 20th century, in order to account for a broad perspec- tive of the interdependency of othering and transculturation.

WILLIAMSON, Controller OTTAWA, CANADA 43910—U FORT BEAUSËJOUR NATIONAL PARK NEW BRUNSWICK Introduction HE site of old Fort Beauséjour, located on the long ridge between the Aulac and Missaguash rivers, and over­ Tlooking Chignecto Bay, forms one of the most interest­ ing historical places in New Brunswick. The fort was originally constructed by the French between 1751 and 1755 on the orders of de la Jonquière, Governor of Canada, as a counter defence against the English Fort Lawrence, which stood on a parallel ridge about a mile and half to the south­ east. It derived its name from an early settler, Laurent Chatillon, surnamed Beauséjour, after whom the southern end of the ridge had been named Pointe-à-Beauséjour. In 1755, before its actual completion, Fort Beauséjour was attacked by an expedition from Boston under the com­ mand of Colonel the Honourable Robert Monckton. Landing at the mouth of the Missaguash river, the English force, which numbered about 2,000 New Englanders, encamped at Fort Lawrence before marching on the fort, being joined there by 300 British regulars. Following the capture of an outpost at Pont à Buot, heavy guns and mortars were landed from the boats, gun-emplacements were dug over 800 yards north of the fort, and a heavy fire was opened on the fortifi­ cations by the batteries.
