Ontario s Fish Cltre Proram Conserin bioiersity, enhancin shin opportnities ZONES 13 & 14 he Ontario Ministry of Natural Resources and Forestry raises and stocks up to eight million healthy, wild strains of native species of fish into more than 1,200 T water bodies each year. About half are stocked into Great Lakes waters, while the rest are stocked into inland waters. We stock fish to maintain, enhance and create angling opportunities as well as to restore and conserve Ontario’s aquatic biodiversity. Wild strains of Lake Trout and Brook Trout are raised at facilities like the Dorion facility near Thunder Bay and the Chatsworth facility near Owen Sound. We are working to restore Atlantic Salmon to Lake Ontario at the Normandale facility near Simcoe, while helping to prevent the extinction of Aurora Trout in northeastern Ontario as well as developing culture practices for other rare species at other facilities. Walleye, Chinook Salmon, Rainbow Trout, Brown Trout and splake are stocked to provide angling opportunities and reduce angling pressure on stocks sensitive to over-harvest.

  • 2.6 Settlement Along the Ottawa River
    INTRODUCTION 76 2.6 Settlement Along the Ottawa River In spite of the 360‐metre drop of the Ottawa Figure 2.27 “The Great Kettle”, between its headwaters and its mouth, the river has Chaudiere Falls been a highway for human habitation for thousands of years. First Nations Peoples have lived and traded along the Ottawa for over 8000 years. In the 1600s, the fur trade sowed the seeds for European settlement along the river with its trading posts stationed between Montreal and Lake Temiskaming. Initially, French and British government policies discouraged settlement in the river valley and focused instead on the lucrative fur trade. As a result, settlement did not occur in earnest until the th th late 18 and 19 centuries. The arrival of Philemon Source: Archives Ontario of Wright to the Chaudiere Falls and the new British trend of importing settlers from the British Isles marked the beginning of the settlement era. Farming, forestry and canal building complemented each other and drew thousands of immigrants with the promise of a living wage. During this period, Irish, French Canadians and Scots arrived in the greatest numbers and had the most significant impact on the identity of the Ottawa Valley, reflected in local dialects and folk music and dancing. Settlement of the river valley has always been more intensive in its lower stretches, with little or no settlement upstream of Lake Temiskaming. As the fur trade gave way to farming, settlers cleared land and encroached on First Nations territory. To supplement meagre agricultural earnings, farmers turned to the lumber industry that fuelled the regional economy and attracted new waves of settlers.

  • Rivers Great
    GREAT RIVERS of the World Introduction The great rivers of the world not only shape the countryside and the nature of riverbanks, they also affect people’s lives. Since the earliest times, they have determined political and cultural borders, facilitated trade routes and even played an important role in religious life. Let’s go on the ultimate river cruise! We’ll explore 18 legend­ ary rivers across all five continents. The journey begins with the Rhine in the middle of Europe, leads us on to the Danube, Thames, Volga, Lena, Ganges, Yangtze, Mekong, Congo, Nile, St. Lawrence, Mississippi, Colorado, Rio Grande, Orinoco, Amazon and Paraná, and goes right through to the Murray in Australia. We’ll marvel at the diverse life and famous sights to be discovered in and around these river wonders.
