Book Temagami s Tangled Wild

Download or read book Temagami s Tangled Wild written by Jocelyn Thorpe and published by UBC Press. This book was released on 2012-02-03 with total page 222 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Temagami’s Tangled Wild traces the processes and power relationships through which the Temagami area of northeastern Ontario has become emblematic of Canadian wilderness. In this sophisticated analysis, Jocelyn Thorpe uncovers how struggles over meaning, racialized and gendered identities, and land have made Temagami a site of wild Canadian nature. Despite the fact that the Teme-Augama Anishnabai have for many generations understood the region as their homeland rather than as a wilderness, the forestry and tourism industries, as well as Canadian law, have refused to acknowledge this claim. Instead, the concept of wilderness has been employed to aid in Aboriginal dispossession and to create a home for non-Aboriginal Canadians on Native land. An eloquent critique and engaging history, Temagami’s Tangled Wild challenges readers to acknowledge how colonial relations are embedded in our notions of wilderness, and to reconsider our understanding of the wilderness ideal.

  • Author : Matt Bray

  • Release : 1996-08-08
  • ISBN : 1459719697
  • Pages : 257 pages

Download or read book Temagami written by Matt Bray and published by Dundurn. This book was released on 1996-08-08 with total page 257 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Over the past two decades, the question of who owns the land of Temagami and how the land should be used has caused a debate of unparalleled intensity. For the native people, it is their lands under attack. For environmentalists from all parts of Ontario, it is a case of ecological preservation of a unique but fast-disappearing wilderness. For others, dependent upon the resource sector, it is a matter of economic survival, both individually and for their communities. In an attempt to clarify the issues surrounding Temagami, Laurentian University’s Institute of Northern Ontario Development and Research invited participants in the Temagami debate to a conference in October, 1989. What follows in this volume are eleven of the revised papers originally presented there. A balanced perspective on the issues at hand is coupled with the views of the various interest groups. Topics covered include aboriginal rights in Temagami, the development of a wilderness park system in Ontario, the management of multiple resources, the importance of tourism in Temagami and an environmentalist’s perspective.

Book Resource Management Conflict in the Temagami Forest  1898 1914

Download or read book Resource Management Conflict in the Temagami Forest 1898 1914 written by Bruce Hodgins and published by . This book was released on 2013 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1901, the Temagami region became the first forest reserve in Ontario. Established in 1898, the initiative designated certain regions as solely for forestry purposes in order to preserve this important resource for the province. The Temagami project did not have the desired results. From the beginning of the project, Native Canadians in the Temagami region sustained a prolonged campaign against the initiative. The short-term goals and policies of various governments in power often contradicted the goals outlined in 1898. Finally, while these regions seemed remote in 1898, a number of impressive developments made the region more accessible to the major centres of the region: the construction of two railways, prospecting, colonization, and tourism. These factors undermined the success of the Temagami reserve project. Because of the conflicting demands for use of the Temagami forest, the region remained largely undamaged up to the First World War. (Cet article est seulement disponible en anglais. Un résumé français suit.) En 1901, la région du Témagami devient la première réserve foristière de l'Ontario. Ce système de réserves, institué en 1898, désignait certaines régions comme deant servir uniquement à la coupe du bois et visait ainsi à assurer à la province la perpétuité de cette importante ressource. Le programme n'eut toutefois pas les résultats escomptés. Dès le début, les Indiens habitent la contrée - en l'occurence, ici, celle du Témagami - opposèrent une résistance formelle au project, et, cette attitude fut longuement maintenue; de plus, les politiques toujours à court terme des gouvernements au pouvoir allaient souvent à l'encontre des buts proposés en 1898; enfin, si lointaines que semblaient ces régions au moment de l'élaboration du système des réserves, les progrès assez impressionnants du début du sciècle, qu'il s'agisse de ceux des chemins de fer, de la prospetion, de la colonisation, ou encore, du tourisme, eurent tôt fait de rapprocher ces r ́gions des grands centres, et, par le fait même, de compromettre les chances de succès de l'entreprise. De fait, de par la coincidence de ces divers facteurs, la région du Témagami n'avait pas encore subit de dommages sérieux à l'approche de la première grande guerre.

  • Pages : 329 pages

Download or read book Changing Parks written by John S. Marsh and published by Dundurn. This book was released on 1998-05-15 with total page 329 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This important book is a must for everyone concerned with the heritage and future of Canada's parks. Contributors include an impressive assembly of noted park experts ranging from academic authorities and government parks personnel to concerned nonpolitical park supporters. Since the establishment of Banff National Park in 1885 and Algonquin Provincial Park in 1893, parklands have been part of Canada's heritage. Where other protected areas, such as forest reserves, heritage rivers and greenways, have also been created, a more comprehensive view of the creation and management of conservation areas and marshland is discussed. Cooperative approaches to park management recognize the regional context of parks with respect to local communities, as well as the inclusion of more diverse groups of people, particularly Aboriginals. This work encourages the general public to take an interest in our priceless park heritage.

Book Ecology of a Managed Terrestrial Landscape

Download or read book Ecology of a Managed Terrestrial Landscape written by Ajith H. Perera and published by UBC Press. This book was released on 2011-11-01 with total page 355 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The growing popularity of the broad, landscape-scale approach to forest management represents a dramatic shift from the traditional, stand-based focus on timber production. Ecology of a Managed Terrestrial Landscape responds to the increasing need of forest policy developers, planners, and managers for an integrated, comprehensive perspective on ecological landscapes. The book examines the "big picture" of ecological patterns and processes through a case study of the vast managed forest region in Ontario. The contributors synthesize current landscape ecological knowledge of this area and look at gaps and future research directions from several points of view: spatial patterns, ecological functions and processes, natural disturbances, and ecological responses to disturbance. They also discuss the integration of landscape ecological knowledge into policies of forest management policies, particularly with respect to Ontario's legislative goals of forest sustainability. Ecology of a Managed Terrestrial Landscape is the first book to describe the landscape ecology of a continuously forested landscape in a comprehensive manner. It is written for instructors and students in forest management, wildlife ecology, and landscape ecology, and for forest managers, planners, and policy developers in North America.
