Extractions: Agriculture In Profile People from northern Asia are thought to have migrated to this continent about 20,000 years ago. By hunting and following herds of animals, they crossed the Bering land bridge that once connected Asia to Alaska. The people spread southward through an ice-free corridor just east of the Rocky Mountains, between the cordilleran and continental glaciers. Bison were critical to the life of the early inhabitants of the Great Plains. Bisons provided people with food, skins for clothing and shelter, containers, tools, weapons, and fuel. People were nomadic, moving their belongings with dog-pulled travois in order to stay near the wandering herds. Early hunters ambushed bison at water holes, trapped them in gullies, or hunters surrounded. Later, bison were stampeded over cliffs (buffalo jumps) or trapped in corrals (buffalo pounds). Horses and rifles changed the hunt, allowing a single skillful hunter to kill many animals for his family and tribe. Changes were to come from the white man's world. With the horse came individualism, for there was less need for communal hunting; and status, for a horse was a sign of wealth. Trade goods such as guns, cookware and blankets created a sense of desire and ownership. The Europeans brought diseases, like smallpox, that nearly destroyed many tribes.

http://mypage.direct.ca/r/roulston/denarebe.htm

Extractions: Denare Beach History The northern village of Denare Beach is a vibrant community located along the shores of beautiful Amisk Lake. Amenities developed by the community over the years include modern recreational facilities that complement the existing natural tourism attractions for which the area is noted. The Amisk Lake area is rich in heritage: of the Aboriginal culture, the fur trade, European exploration, and mineral exploration. The scenic landscape and lake frontage have attracted human activity for many centuries. Denare Beach is 18 kilometers south of the Town of Creighton. The history of Denare Beach is very different from that of the other two communities. While Creighton and Flin Flon are recent settlements owing their creation to the mining and exploration industries, Denare Beach's historic roots go back much further. Evidence suggests an encampment on an island near the current Denare Beach was a traditional stopping place for nomadic bands of aboriginal residents. An old portage along the "Mill Steam" has provided a transportation link between Amisk Lake and Mosher Lake for centuries. Archaeological discoveries indicate this route was popular with the Aboriginal residents and fur trading travellers. The site of Fort Henry, an early fur trade establishment, has been rediscovered to the west of Amisk Lake. A trading post and small permanent settlement of white trappers and fisherman was established in the immediate area in the early part of the 20th century.

http://mypage.direct.ca/r/roulston/creighto.htm

Extractions: Creighton History The town of Creighton is a prosperous diversified mining community situated on the Saskatchewan - Manitoba boundary. It is located in northeastern Saskatchewan, three kilometres southwest of Flin Flon, Manitoba, and 425 kilometres northeast of Prince Albert, Saskatchewan. The amenities developed by the community over the years include some of the most modern recreational and educational facilities in northern Saskatchewan. Tom Creighton, born near Barrie, Ontario, must have been aware of the industrial opportunities available in the wealthy Toronto area, but it was the vastness of the northern marsh and mineral country that claimed his adventurous spirit. In 1912 he came to The Pas, began his prospecting and mineral scouting career, and remained active until his death in 1949. With his partners, Tom Creighton sparked the events that led to the discovery of the Flin Flon Mine. An able prospector, he later assumed a position as supervisor of exploration for an affiliate of the Hudson Bay Mining and Smelting Company, extending his reputation throughout the Canadian northwest. When he died in Flin Flon at the age of 75, he was President of Hudson Bay Air Transport. Creighton had its beginnings in the 1930s after the Department of Natural Resources constructed a road from Flin Flon to Amisk Lake, as people began to settle along this road. After the Second World War, a townsite was surveyed by the Department of Natural Resources and lots were made available for residential and business purposes. They were largely taken by young men returning from the armed services and a community began to develop. Creighton was incorporated as a village in 1952 with a population of 1200. The village was raised to town status in 1957 with a population of 1705. The current population is 1668.

It was in Western Canada that the need for a national police force first occurred. The Cypress Hills Massacre, in which a large number of innocent and defenseless Assiniboine died, sparked the federal government to action regarding policing of the West. March West Re-Enactment, 1999 On May 23, 1873 the Dominion Parliament passed an act to provide for the establishment of a "Mounted Police Force for the North-West Territories". A year later, the famous March West brought 300 original members of the NWMP to what is now Saskatchewan and Alberta. The Headquarters of the Force relocated several times from Fort Garry, Fort Dufferin, Swan River, Fort Macleod and Fort Walsh before finally settling on a more centralized location beside Wascana Creek, on the outskirts of Regina in 1882.

http://www.world-spectator.com/archives.25.html

Extractions: A black chapter in Saskatchewan's history: When the KKK rode high across the Prairies By Kevin Weedmark Children don't learn about it in their history classes in Saskatchewan schools. The history books that meticulously document the past of just about every Saskatchewan community manage to avoid mention of it altogether. People who were around at the time don't want to talk about it. But there was a time in Saskatchewan's history when the Ku Klux Klan rode high. When massive crosses were burned, thousands of people, mostly in rural areas turned to the KKK to protect them from the perceived dangers of Roman Catholics, the French language, and immigrants from eastern Europe. There was a time when the Klan wielded such influence that the Klan's Grand Wizard in this province met the premier of the day in a public debate. And when the Klan whipped up such hysteria that it claimed to have played a role in defeating a government. Hard to belive, but true. In the late 1920s and early 1930s, the Klan was one of the largest organizations in the province. The Klan claimed more members than any political party, and had more members than any agricultural organization save the Wheat Pool. No one is sure of the exact number, but historians estimate that the Klan had around 25,000 members. The Klan itself claimed a membership of 50,000 in this province.

http://www.world-spectator.com/archives.25b.html

Extractions: A black chapter in Saskatchewan's history: Against the tide By Kevin Weedmark While the Klan was widespread in Saskatchewan and its ideas were accepted by many, there were those who stood against the tide and defended equality of all. The following excerpts are from an editorial entitled "The Immigration Problem," which appeared in the World-Spectator on July 25, 1928: On the one hand are those who contend that only those immigrants who will engage in agriculture should be allowed to enter the Dominion. . . Then there are those who would draw a purely racial line of demarcation. They would entirely exclude the so-called yellow races; they would bar the negro. They would put a stop to the admission of immigrants from the countries of southern and central Europe; In a word, they would rigidly restrict all immigration except that of people born and bred in the British Isles and speaking the English language. Still another group places the chief emphasis upon the religion of immigrants. They are opposed to those of other religions than their own. Even if the immigrant be from the British Isles, they have slight welcome for him unless he also be of their religious faith. To begin with, no government under the British flag, and having the slightest regard for that cardinal British principle, liberty of conscience, will recognize or enforce any bar to immigration based on the religious convictions of the intending immigrant.

Extractions: This is an edited and abridged version of a speech given by Rebecca Landau , at Florida Atlantic University, January, 1996. The talk describes the early settlement of Jews in Saskatchewan and comments on Jewish life today in the Province. Before looking at life in Saskatchewan from a Jewish view it is worthwhile to have some background on Saskatchewan geography and climate. The province of Saskatchewan lies north of the states of North Dakota and Montana. It is one of Canada's three prairie provinces and encompasses an area of 651,903 square kilometers (251,700 square miles). A population of approximately 1,000,000 people live in this vast land area today. More than sixty percent live in the two urban centres. The southern two thirds is mostly flat prairie. Before the first farmer came to Saskatchewan, herds of buffalo inhabited this land. The region was an expanse of windswept grasses.
