Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. This book, written in verse, tells the history of and life in the town of Kuujjuaq, then (in 2008) also known as Fort Chimo. The town has received sudden prominence as the birthplace and hometown of Her Excellency the Right Honourable Mary Simon, who in 2021 became Canada's 30th Governor General.For three consecutive summers, I was in Kuujjuaq and assisted on a helicopter electromagnetic and magnetic survey in the Ungava area on the west side of Ungava Bay. This is where mineral deposits were known, but not yet producing (at that time). The areas we surveyed were on the west side of Ungava Bay from Kuujjuaq (then, Fort Chimo) to the villages to the north, including Tasiujaq, Aupaluk, and Kangirsuk.Kuujjuaq, the largest town has a population of over two thousand people, though I did not get to spend much time in the town. The people of Kuujjuaq were well mannered, and many were occupied with fishing and hunting, but I did not get to know many of them. It was definitely a much different lifestyle than the farm life I had growing up in the Eastern Townships of Quebec, southeast of Montreal.

Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. This is the story, written in verse, telling the stories of prospectors on the Yukon Gold Rush in the 1890s, which took prospectors from around the world up to Dawson City (at the junction of the Klondike and Yukon rivers), and even further north into Alaska. Later, it touches on newer mining developments in Northern Ontario and Northern Quebec.It tells of what prospectors had to go through, the realities of the harsh conditions of Mother Nature, and the trials and tribulations of prospecting in the difficult situations of the remote Yukon Klondike at the very beginning of the 20th century, when canoe, steamboat, horseback, and foot travel were the only options, steamboat if you were lucky (and could afford it). The Prospector also describes the problems and challenges that a modern-day prospector experiences. It also mentions of recent mining activities in Northern Quebec and Northern Ontario including the story of the Raglan Nickel mine in in the Nunavik region of Northern Quebec, prospected in the 1930s, and the big Kidd Creek mine just north of Timmins, prospected in the 1960s. By this time bush planes and helicopters become part of the prospector's toolkit.On top of the trials and technical challenges of prospecting, the brutal weather of these regions, they also had to contend with wild animals. In one incident in the Yukon, I myself was confronted by two grizzly bears and was only saved from this almost-nasty situation by being "buzzed" by a passing helicopter who witnessed my predicament.
