Early Explorers of Canada
The search for new territory and for ways around or through the North American continent, took explorers and traders farther and farther inland as the New World revealed its vast riches. Some of these early explorers from France, England and Italy looked for a safe passage to the Orient, and by failing in this task, they discovered bays, rivers, and lakes and some established settlements in the new land called Canada.
Explorers of Canada
James Cook
(b.1728 - d. 1779) He joined the British Navy in 1755, at age 27. In 1768, the Navy appointed him leader of a scientific expedition to Tahiti. He set out on his first voyage round the world in the ship Endeavour. In October of 1769 Cook was the first European to visit New Zealand. In April 1770 he claimed the entire eastern coast of Australia for Great Britain.
On Cook's second journey he sailed farther south than any other European. He circled Antarctica in his famous ship Resolution, but the ice surrounding the continent prevented the sighting of land. The existence of the Antarctica remained unproved until 1840. He returned to England in 1775 and was promoted to Captain.
In July of 1776 Cook set sail on his third voyage, again in Resolution, to look for a possible northern sea route between Europe and Asia. In 1778 he became the first know European to reach the Hawaiian Islands. Later in 1778 Cook sailed up the northwest coast of North America, and was the first European to land on Vancouver Island in British Columbia. He continued up the coast through the Bering strait, and entered the Arctic Ocean. Great walls of ice blocked the expedition, so Cook headed back for the Hawaiian Islands. On February 14, 1779 Cook was stabbed to death by Hawaiian natives while investigating a theft of a boat by an islander. The expedition arrived back in England in October of 1780.

The Bank of Blanda strikes again
So I read where they've issued a new $100 bill God rest, Robert Borden, even if you did knock back free trade 80 years and that radical changes are afoot. It seems it has finally occured to someone in Ottawa that the country is populated by something other than wildlife. Accordingly, CBC reports , "the back of the $100 note will no longer feature a Canada goose. It has been replaced with a new theme 'innovation and exploration' through mapping."

No, no, and no. Rather, this:
The same people who turned Canada's ferocious war record into a collection of standing mutes, who extracted every ounce of vitality or menace from the game of hockey, have brought you this impenetrable gloss on the greatest story ever told, in which no actual people appear . Apparently, it was all done with wires.

Long Life of Hudson's Bay Company While Thompson was wearing out his moccasins on countless miles of tundra and prairie, another Nor'Wester was pursuing a dream that had spurred on the likes of Christopher Columbus and Sir Francis Drake: a northwest passage across North America to the riches of the exotic Orient. Born in Scotland, Alexander Mackenzie traveled to New York state with his father, who served in the Loyalist (proBritish) forces during the American Revolution. After the war, young Alexander and his father emigrated to Canada.Joining the North West Fur Company, Mackenzie became the proteacute geacute; of a shadowy transplanted American, Peter Pond. Pond, one of the earliest Nor'Wester explorers, taught young Mackenzie how to find his way through Canada's trackless wilderness. There was just one disagreeable fact about Pond: his trading competitors kept turning up dead. After the second had died in suspicious circumstances, Pond felt it wise to return to the United States, perhaps before a hangman's noose or backwood's justice (shot out in the woods by an unknown assailant) prematurely ended his career.

NORTHERN NAMES
Don C. Barnett
INTRODUCTION 1. Explore the reasons behind some town, city, river, and/or street names in your community. 2. How should names be selected? New buildings, roads and streets require naming. Could we use bird and animal names? Can we draw from our historical and cultural backgrounds to select meaningful names? 3. Select things to name in your community. Decide which new names would be appropriate. 4. Consider reasons based on history, tradition, culture, and geography. Look at some names in northern Canada that tell about that part of the world. Find these places on a map. Search for more information about people who had places named in their honor. NAMES ACROSS THE NORTH What's in a name? Names of some places are based on historical background INDIAN NAMES First Nations peoples have been named by themselves as well as by other aboriginal groups. Those who shared a common territory, spoke the same language, and had similar customs called themselves "we, people". The word for people in Inuktituk is "Inuit". The word for people among the Athapaskan speaking Indians is "Dene", and the Algonkian word for people is "Eno", "Eyo", or "Ewo". Some smaller bands of people would call their neighbors such things as people of the mountains or people of the pointed coats. Enemies were called names which were rude. These included things such as bad people, stinkers, or louse eggs. The Indian referred to Inuit people as Eskimos, or eaters of raw meat. The Cree called the inhabitants living inland as "strangers" hence, the origin of the word "Athabascan". It was the word that white men heard which referred to the many northern Indian groups inhabiting Canada's sub-Arctic.

Replacing the Queen on Canada's currency By Tom Freda, Special to Monarchy-Free Canada What Canadians say An April 1, 2002 poll conducted by Leger Marketing asked this question: Question: In your opinion, should we replace the head of Queen Elizabeth II on the Canadian dollar by those of people
who have influenced Canadian history?
Yes: 56%
No: 39%
Don't know: 5% The nominees Here it is ... after months of research ... the list of people from Canada's history to consider as replacements for the Queen on our currency. Many of them you'll recognize, perhaps most of them, if you're a history buff that is. And yes, you may be familiar with the odd one or two from having seen them on Canada's postage stamps, where we've led the "Dominions" in exhibiting Canadian icons and notable historical figures since 1851 (see Dr. Sandford Flemming below). There are, however, several who may not be as easily recognizable - which is precisely why we need a forum like our currency to showcase our heroes and nation-builders. Also, you'll probably notice that not all people mentioned are Canadian. Many of course, predate the formation of what we now know as Canada while others simply made enormous contributions to our history and development but happened to be citizens of another country while doing so. The important factor in their acceptance for this list is whether or not they made a positive difference to our destiny as a nation when they lived here.

Under his administration, Alberta and Saskatchewan joined Confederation, the last British troops were withdrawn from Canada and the Royal Canadian Navy was founded. 2. William Lyon Mackenzie King (1874-1950) As the father of unemployment insurance, family allowance, and Canadian citizenship, King's accomplishments continue to affect the day-to-day lives of every Canadian. Leading the country in the 1920s, 30s, and 40s, King held power for almost 22 years. This statue was to be the first of four centennial statues to commemorate those Canadian Prime Ministers who played major roles in the shaping of the nation. In creating this monument, the Quebec artist Raoul Hunter strove to convey the forcefulness and determination that defined the strength of King's character.

Columbus encountered the coast of Panama Central America was occupied by Spain Juan Ponce de Leon claimed Florida for Spain. He landed near modern Jacksonville and sailed around the peninsula, perhaps as far north as Tampa. Alonso Alvarez de Pineda explored the Gulf Coast of Mexico and encountered the mouth of the Mississippi River. He nameed it the "Rio del Espiritu Santo." Giovanni da Verrazano encountered New York Harbor and the Hudson River, laying claim for France to the "New World." The Panfilo de Narvaez expedition set out to explore the Gulf coastline from Florida to Texas. The group was attacked by Indians and its boats were swamped. All the expedition members died except for four survivors, who wandered across Texas and the Southwest, eventually contacting the Spanish in Mexico City nearly 10 years later (1536). Lavar Nunez Cabeza de Vaca and a black slave named Esteban were two of the three survivors, who described cultures and the geography of the regions they traversed. They gave the world the first description of the American buffalo (bison).

    SCOTS PIONEERS "Breathes there a man with soul so dead,
    Who never to himself hath said,
    This is my own, my native land?" Sir Walter Scott Scots haven't always left Scotland by choice. Reasons for leaving their native land were myriad - to avoid religious persecution, because their military prowess was in demand by European monarchs, because their old way of life was changing, or to escape poverty and hardship. Scotland is a small nation yet it is thought that 50 million or more Americans have Scottish blood. The Scots gained a reputation for courage, hard work, perseverance and thrift. Few Scots forgot their homeland and their roots even though they were in Canada, Australia or the U.S. The history of the Highland Clearances shows that many Highlanders were forced to leave their ancestral lands to make way for sheep. Sir John Sinclair of Ulster brought the sheep to his land for the benefit of his people, but was unable to prevent others from using it to oust theirs. The land was owned mainly by absentee landlords, some who probably had not even seen the land that they owned or leased. Many lived in England or the Lowlands and used the rents from the lands to support their style of life. The land could not support both people and sheep and since sheep were more profitable to the landlords, the people were evicted from the land. There are many glens which remain empty to this day. The people were historically used to obeying the word and law of the Clan Chief. During this shameful period of history, the clan chiefs failed their people. The Clearances may well have been the end of the clan system as it was then known.

    HOME Commentary Archives About ... Contact Founded in 1986 in Toronto, the Mackenzie Institute is an independent non-profit organization concerned with issues related to political instability and organized violence . This includes such matters as terrorism, political extremism, warfare and organized crime. The aim of the Institute is to provide research and commentary on its subject matter, to promote informed public debate, and to hold to the proposition that our liberal democratic tradition must be safeguarded and fostered. The Institute is also concerned with the social and political stability of Canada, and works to enhance it when it can. The Institute is named for the voyageur Alexander Mackenzie, the first European (and likely the first man) to reach the Pacific Ocean from Upper Canada, and the first to trace the Mackenzie River to the Arctic Ocean. Mackenzie had the courage to explore routes that everyone knew existed, but feared to try. In our own way, we try to emulate his courage and forthrightness
