Archeology History Inuit Culture Inuit Spirituality Language Life in Nunavut Today ... click here History by Kenn Harper In 1999, Canada's newest territory becomes a reality. Yet it already has a history, rich and colorful. It is the history of the Inuit who originally inhabited this land, by turns rich and sparse, and of the qallunaat Baffin Region Historians identify the Baffin coast with Helluland of the Norse sagas, and there may have been sporadic contacts between Norse and Inuit. But the recorded history of Baffin Island began in 1576 when Martin Frobisher, on an expedition in search of a Northwest Passage, discovered what he thought was gold in the bay that bears his name. The ore was worthless and Frobisher's encounters with the Inuit were not friendly. He seized four Inuit in 1576 and 1577 and took them to England where they quickly died. In 1585, John Davis, also in search of the Northwest Passage, explored Cumberland Sound; unlike Frobisher, his relations with Inuit were cordial. Henry Hudson, in 1610, followed the south coast of Baffin Island into Hudson Bay, and five years later, William Baffin and Robert Bylot mapped that coast. But Baffin Island itself was, at best, only a landmark and, at worst, an obstacle in the path of those searching for a Northwest Passage. Its coastline remained largely unexplored.

Actually the land has always been there, and it has always held a fascination for those who want to "get a way from it all" or embark on an adventure to simpler lifestyle. This is not a place where you can expect a high standard of amenities or a wide choice of accommodations Iqaluit has about 175 hotel rooms in their four hotels and a few places where you can expect quality dining. Most other towns may only have one place where lodging can be attained, which may be a shared bedroom and bathrooms. This is a place for the outdoors enthusiast and adventure-seekers. Common tourist activities include dog-sledding, sea kayaking, hunting, fishing, and wildlife watching tours.

Recycling is commonplace, and communities across the country have made great strides in balancing economic interests with environmental goals. On Vancouver Island, for example, environmentalists and timber companies agreed in 1995 on forestry standards that satisfy both parties. When salmon fishing boats blockaded an Alaska ferry in Prince Rupert in 1997, the issue for the Canadians was perceived as overfishing by Americans. Salmon have been reduced to an endangered species in much of the Pacific Northwest, and the Canadians consequently don't think much of U.S. fisheries policies. In 1999, the huge Northern Territories divided in two. The eastern half, which takes in Baffin Island, the land around Hudson's Bay, and most of the Arctic islands, is now called Nunavut and essentially functions as an Inuit homeland. The rump Northwest Territories officially retains the territory's old name, though many refer to the region as the Western Arctic.

This is the part of Canada that the European explorers first came to and began to set up settlements. This area is both rich in natural resources and history. The area was first inhabited by the First Nations people who hunted and fished here for thousands of years. In the late 1500's and early 1600's Jaques Cartier arrived from France which marked the beginning of settlements in Canada. French settlers who became known as Acadians were the first Europeans to settle permanently in Canada. Over time they were joined by settlers from the British Isles and Germany. In the 1700's British refugees from the American War of Independence that were still loyal to the crown (called Loyalists) came to this area from the United States. Some of the earliest Black settlers moved to Nova Scotia and New Brunswick.

HOME LATEST FEATURE DISCUSSION FORUM CONTACT ... Trail Canada 10 April 2003 Navigation Location: Home Page About Canada SPECIAL FEATURE THE RAMBLER ... DIRECTORY History of Canada Thousands of years ago Aboriginal people are believed to have crossed a land bridge between Siberia and Alaska into North America, some settling in Canada. European settlers arrived for the first time in Canada probably around 1000 years ago when Icelandic Norsemen settled for a short period in Newfoundland. This would have been the first meeting of Europeans and the Native Americans. When European exploration of North America began, the French and British entered Canada by way of water inlets such as the French along the St. Lawrence River and the British through Hudson Bay. Some of the most well known explorers of these areas include Cabot, Cartier and Champlain. The French settled in Canada in the early 1600s establishing a strong economy based on fur trade and heavily dependent on France for military and political direction and protection.
