Book The Politics of the Canoe

Download or read book The Politics of the Canoe written by Bruce Erickson and published by Univ. of Manitoba Press. This book was released on 2021-03-26 with total page 272 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Popularly thought of as a recreational vehicle and one of the key ingredients of an ideal wilderness getaway, the canoe is also a political vessel. A potent symbol and practice of Indigenous cultures and traditions, the canoe has also been adopted to assert conservation ideals, feminist empowerment, citizenship practices, and multicultural goals. Documenting many of these various uses, this book asserts that the canoe is not merely a matter of leisure and pleasure; it is folded into many facets of our political life. Taking a critical stance on the canoe, The Politics of the Canoe expands and enlarges the stories that we tell about the canoe’s relationship to, for example, colonialism, nationalism, environmentalism, and resource politics. To think about the canoe as a political vessel is to recognize how intertwined canoes are in the public life, governance, authority, social conditions, and ideologies of particular cultures, nations, and states. Almost everywhere we turn, and any way we look at it, the canoe both affects and is affected by complex political and cultural histories. Across Canada and the U.S., canoeing cultures have been born of activism and resistance as much as of adherence to the mythologies of wilderness and nation building. The essays in this volume show that canoes can enhance how we engage with and interpret not only our physical environments, but also our histories and present-day societies.

Book A History of the Murray Canal

Download or read book A History of the Murray Canal written by Dan Buchanan and published by FriesenPress. This book was released on 2024-02-20 with total page 134 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: During the 1790s, Upper Canada’s first lieutenant governor, John Graves Simcoe, promoted the idea of a canal in the area between the Bay of Quinte and Presqu’ile Bay on Lake Ontario, but his idea did not come into fruition until decades later. Why did it take so long? In A History of the Murray Canal, historian Dan Buchanan provides a detailed account of the building of the Murray Canal and how lobbying and politics combined to finally make it happen in 1889. Industries, farmers, and merchants around the Bay of Quinte all wanted an easier, cheaper path to move products within the region. Mounting pressure from them, supported by their members of Parliament, pushed politicians to finally approve the necessary funding to build a canal. The construction of the Murray Canal began in 1882, with the contract going to a company that had experience with the Welland Canal. Steam-powered dredges dug the canal straight from Twelve O’Clock Point to Presqu’ile Bay, through land that had been expropriated from farmers along the route. When it opened at last, the Murray Canal became an important link in the regional transportation system, a role it continues to play today as part of the Trent-Severn Waterway. Currently the only published historical record of the Murray Canal, A History of the Murray Canal not only chronicles how the canal was built and how it has changed over the years, but also sheds light on the movers and shakers who got the job done.
