Between 1963-66, I was an undergraduate at the University of Birmingham, UK.
For two Summers, I came to Canada to work at the McGill SubArctic Research Lab, in Schefferville, PQ. I was a field assistant to graduate students working on the Canadian Shield. The research involved digging soil pits and undertaking till fabric analysis.
This Monday evening, after being saturated by the CBC coverage of Donald Trump’s inauguration, we decided it was time to find out more about David Bowlby,
our new PC representative for Annapolis County (replacing Carman Kerr, Liberal).
The AGM meeting was 6:30 pm, at the NSCC Middleton campus.
On arrival, I noticed a stack of free, used books outside the Library. I found Harold Horwood’s White Eskimo. After teaching at Memorial University,
I had always enjoyed his writing. Time for a re-read.
Later this week, I shall drop by the PC office to learn more about the current government plans for Annapolis County. In particular, I am interested in the use of modern mapping technology (at COGS and AGRG) and its application to resource management in the county (agriculture, forestry, fisheries and mining).
