Indeed, explorers from an earlier age did not have the advantages afforded by our cur- rent technology. Global Positioning Systems (GPS) to keep one from getting lost, satel- lite phones to call for help, and airplanes to come to the rescue. Historically those who traveled to the Arctic were gone for years, and lost to communication until they returned. Many never re- turned. What drove people to explore the north: to risk their lives and expose themselves to profound privation? The exploration of the Arctic spans almost 450 years, and continues to this day. While early explor- ers were looking for spices from China, current ex- ploration is focused on precious resources like oil, diamonds and gold. Caught in the mix has been the Inuit people, and the welfare of those who call the Arctic home has often been overlooked in the drive to explore. GETTING THERE The principal means of travel for early explorers was by boat; sailing ships to cross the ocean and freigh- ter canoes to travel inland waterways.

  • Explorer Roses
    Explorer Roses Agriculture Canada began a rose breeding program in the 1960s under the direction of breeder Felicitas Svejda. Her objective was to use roses from earlier efforts and cross them with newly developed roses from Europe to create a series of roses that would be hardy, disease resistant, repeat blooming and easy to propagate from cuttings. A key component in this program was a new hybrid, Rosa kordessii, developed by the firm of Kordes in Germany. This rose was a relatively hardy pillar rose with long, vigorous shoots and exceedingly healthy foliage. Dr. Svejda also used several repeat blooming and compact Rosa rugosa varieties such as 'Fru Dagmar Hastrup' and 'Schneezwerg'. The results of this ambitious program have forever changed northern rose gardens. (Bob Osborne, Corn Hill Nursery, Petitcodiac, NB) Alexander MacKenzie Alexander MacKenzie is a tall, upright, vigorous shrub introduced in 1985. The plant reaches a height of 1.5 - 2.0 m and has a diameter of 1.2 - 1.5 m in Ottawa. It is winter-hardy, flowers recurrently, and is highly resistant to blackspot and powdery mildew. The deep red, cup-shaped flowers, produced in clusters of 6 - 12, have an average diameter of 6 - 7 cm and 40 - 50 petals. The flowers closely resemble those of a grandiflora or hybrid tea rose, but the plant has the distinct advantage of being much hardier. The rose propagates easily from softwood stem cuttings. This selection has been tested at Ottawa since 1972 and at other test locations in Canada, since 1978. It survives the winters in zone 3b without protection, but needs some pruning of deadwood in the spring.

  • Northwest Passage
    Inuit Contact and Colonization Toolkit - Historical Thinking Northwest Passage The Northwest Passage is a famous sea route linking the Atlantic and Pacific Oceans, thereby providing an alternate shipping route from Europe to Asia. It lies between Canada and Greenland, above the Arctic Circle and below the north polar icecap. The sea in this region is frozen over for most of the year with huge ever- present icebergs drifting through. Temperatures in winter often fall to -50°F. The search for the Northwest Passage was a long one. As early as 1534, Jacques Cartier, the French navigator, explored the St. Lawrence River looking for a passage to China. Sir Martin Frobisher discovered a body of water (Frobisher Bay) on what is now called Baffin Island in 1576 and thought it was the passage. Between 1585 and 1587, John Davis made three voyages, exploring the western shores of Greenland, Davis Strait, and Cumberland Sound. Henry Hudson reached Hudson Bay in 1610 and was abandoned there by his mutinous crew. Between 1612 and 1615, Thomas Button, Robert Bylot, and William Baffin made three voyages to Hudson Bay--searching unsuccessfully for both Henry Hudson and a passage to Asia. By the beginning of the 19th Century, however, much of the American Arctic still remained uncharted and unknown. Whalers had not traveled far west from Greenland, knowing the waters there to be dangerous and lacking in profitable quantities of their quarry. Trading ships were still having to travel the long sea- routes around the Cape of Good Hope and Cape Horn to reach India and China.

Francis The Western Norse Settlement in Greenland disappeared suddenly, probably in 1342. Research in the area includes medieval sources, archeological studies of the ruins, climatic data from the Greenlandic icecap, oral stories from the Inuit in Greenland and Canada, and possible sightings of ancestors of the Norse in the Canadian Arctic. Feeling threatened both physically by the Thule (ancestors of the Inuit) and a cooling climate, and economically by the Norwegian crown, the Roman Catholic Church, and the Eastern Settlement in Greenland, the Western Settlement voluntarily left en masse for the new world, probably in 1342 based on sailing dates. _______________________, Committee Chair Candace Gregory-Abbott _______________________ Date iv PREFACE I was volunteering on a trip from Hudson Bay to Baffin Island with Students on Ice in 2007, when I heard the zodiac driver say, “there is a Viking trading site in the South Savage Islands.” That made me curious, as trading sites take time and trust to develop.
