Hector Glacier

Hector Glacier is located in Banff National Park, Alberta, Canada. The glacier is on the north slope of Mount Hector and extends northward for 3 km (1.9 mi). In 1938, a large mass of the glacier broke off and covered the valley below with ice up to 60 m (200 ft) thick. The ice mass destroyed everything in its path and this is only the second known glacier hazard to have been recorded in the Canadian Rockies. The glacier, along with Mount Hector and Hector Lake are all named after James Hector, a prominent early naturalist to the region. See also List of glaciers References
Glacier Hector

Le glacier Hector, en anglais : Hector Glacier est un glacier situé dans le parc national de Banff, dans la province d'Alberta au Canada. Le glacier est situé sur le versant nord du mont Hector et s'étend en direction du nord sur 3 km. En 1938, une grande partie du glacier s'est détachée et a recouvert la vallée en contrebas avec une épaisseur de glace de 60 mètres de hauteur, détruisant tout sur son passage. Il s'agit de la seconde catastrophe naturelle liée à un glacier recensée dans les Rocheuses canadiennes. Le glacier, ainsi que le mont Hector et le lac Hector, ont été nommés d'après James Hector, un des premiers naturalistes à avoir étudié la région.

Primera Nación Frog Lake

Frog Lake (Cree: ᐊᔨᑭᓵᑲᐦᐃᑲᐣ, ayiki-sâkahikan)​ es una banda india de Alberta, Canadá. Tiene tres reservas indias, una de las cuales comparte con otras cinco bandas y tiene su sede en Frog Lake. En abril de 2016, tenía una población total registrada de 3187 membres de los cuales 2031 vivían en una de las reservas.​ La banda es parte del consejo tribal de Tribal Chiefs Ventures Incorporated​ y una de las tribus firmantes del Tratado 6 por medio de los jefes de la época, Puskiakiwenin y Tustukiskwes.​ Las reservas indias de la banda se encuentra a poca distancia del lugar donde ocurrieron los hechos de la masacre del lago Frog de 1885, a nivel de los lagos Wasagamu.​ Economía Frog Lake se sostiene principalmente con la empresa Frog Lake Energy Resources Corporation (FLERC), para crear y sostener empleos y otros beneficios económicos para los miembros de la banda y no miembros de su comunidad por igual.​ Es una compañía petrolera propiedad de la banda con aplicaciones en los programas de extracción de petróleo en sus tierras de reserva. Otro tercio de la comunidad es empleada por el distrito escolar. Reservas La banda india Frog Lake se asienta en dos reservas principales llamadas Unipouheos (#121) y Puskiakiwenin (#122), a unos 55 km al noroeste de Fuerte Pitt donde se firmó el tratado 6. Las reservas llevan los nombres de los jefes de la banda que escogieron el lugar para sus reservas. Los jefes firmantes del tratado 6 fueron Puskiakiwenin y Tustukiskwes en nombre de sus respectivas bandas pero el jefe Tustukiskwes falleció antes que tuviera la oportunidad de seleccionar la ubicación de su reserva. Dejó la jefatura a su hijo, Unipouheos y aunque eran de bandas independientes, ambos jefes eligieron tierras adyacentes a Frog Lake. El jefe Puskiakiwenin eligió tierras directamente al oeste de Frog Lake y el jefe Unipouheos eligió tierras al sur del lago.​ Finalmente en 1914 las dos bandas fueron amalgamadas a un, la Primera Nación Frog Lake. Las reservas se encuentran a unos 300 kilómetros (186,4 mi) al este de Edmonton, a orillas de la carretera 897 de la provincia. Conjuntamente ocupan una superficie de 18 845,4 hectáreas (46 568 acre). Parte de la banda Frog Lake viven en una reserva compartida llamada Blue Quills, ubicada a poca distancia, aproximadamente 3 kilómetros (1,9 mi) de la comunidad de St. Paul.​ Es una región de menor superficie, 96 hectáreas (237,2 acre) en comparación con los 10 339 hectáreas (25 548,2 acre) de Puskiakiwenin y los 8506 hectáreas (21 018,8 acre) de Unipouheos.​ Referencias

Église Notre-Dame-de-Lourdes de Lamoureux

L'église Notre-Dame-de-Lourdes est un lieu de culte catholique situé à Lamoureux en Alberta (Canada). Il a été construit selon les plans de l'architecte Venne[Lequel ?] de Montréal. Il a été reconnu comme ressource historique provinciale de l'Alberta en 1994. Histoire Au début des années 1870, les frères Joseph et François Lamoureux ont été persuadés par un arpenteur du chemin de fer du Canadien Pacifique de quitter la région de Kamloops et de s'établir dans la vallée de la rivière Saskatchewan Nord. Ils s'établirent sur la rive gauche de la rivière, en face du présent Fort Saskatchewan en 1872. Au cours des deux années suivantes, ils sont rejoints par le reste de la famille, créant ainsi l'un des premiers établissement canadien-français de l'Alberta. En 1877, Joseph Lamoureux achète le lot de rivière 16 pour 100 $ et une chapelle est construite sur ce lot. En 1891, la chapelle commençait à présenter des signes de pourriture. Elle était aussi rendu trop petite pour la population de Lamoureux. L'abbé Ernest Dorais fit une campagne de financement pour la construction d'une nouvelle église. Les plans de l'église ont été obtenus de l'architecte Venne[Lequel ?] de Montréal. La construction a débuté en 1902 par un certain Millette, un entrepreneur local. Quant à la fondation, elle a été construite par Ernest Mezière. L'église est bénite et dédiée à Notre-Dame de Lourdes le 15 février 1903.

Co-op Place

Co-op Place (formerly Canalta Centre) is a 7,100-seat indoor arena located in Medicine Hat, Alberta, Canada. It opened on August 22, 2015 as the new home of the Medicine Hat Tigers of the Western Hockey League, replacing the Medicine Hat Arena. History The arena was initially operated by SMG (now ASM Global) under a contract with the city. The arena underperformed in its first years of operations, with low ticket sales for concerts and sporting events. Its operating costs were higher than originally projected. In April 2020, the city announced that it would not renew its contract with ASM Global, and that operations for the arena would be brought in-house. Canalta Hotels initially held the naming rights to the arena. In 2020, South Country Co-op acquired the naming rights, renaming the arena Co-op Place. References External links coopplace.ca
Pigeon Lake (Alberta)

Pigeon Lake is a lake in central Alberta, Canada that straddles the boundary between Leduc County and the County of Wetaskiwin No. 10. It is located close to Edmonton, Leduc and Wetaskiwin. Communities along the lakeshore include Pigeon Lake Indian Reserve 138A, ten summer villages (Argentia Beach, Crystal Springs, Golden Days, Grandview, Itaska Beach, Ma-Me-O Beach, Norris Beach, Poplar Bay, Silver Beach and Sundance Beach), and four unincorporated communities (Fisher Home, Mission Beach, Mulhurst Bay and Village at Pigeon Lake). The lake has a total area of 96.7 km2 (37.3 sq mi) and a maximum depth of 9.1 m (30 ft). It has a catchment area of 187 km2 (72 sq mi), and is an early tributary of the Battle River, to which it is connected through the Pigeon Lake Creek. Pigeon Lake was previously called "Woodpecker Lake". The name was changed to Pigeon Lake in 1858. In 1896, Pigeon Lake Indian Reserve was established on the southeast shore. Later, the summer village of Ma-Me-O Beach was developed at the south end of the lake on land obtained from the Indian reserve in 1924. Ma-Me-O (omîmîw) is a Cree word meaning "pigeon". Conservation The Pigeon Lake Provincial Park is established on the western shore of the lake and is accessed from Highway 771. The Pigeon Lake Watershed Association promotes protection of the lake and beneficial management practices in its watershed. Development Pigeon Lake is one of the most intensely used recreational areas in Alberta, with 10 summer villages, 4 unincorporated communities, and over 2,300 private cottages along its shores. The summer villages include Argentia Beach, Crystal Springs, Golden Days, Grandview, Itaska Beach, Ma-Me-O Beach, Norris Beach, Poplar Bay, Silver Beach and Sundance Beach. The unincorporated communities include Fisher Home, Mission Beach, Mulhurst Bay and Village at Pigeon Lake. A fifth unincorporated community, Westerose, is located 0.5 km (0.31 mi) to the south of the lake on Highway 13. Transportation The lake and its communities are accessed along Highway 13 on the south side, Highway 771 on the west side, Highway 616 on the north side, and Highway 780 on the east side. Management Concerns over frequency and intensity of cyanobacterial blooms has prompted study of the lake and its watershed. Water sampling was undertaken to characterize water quality, sediment quality, and non-fish biota. This data was then used to create a nutrient budget for lake and to undertake a model to explore future management options. The watershed community is working to address the sources of external nutrients entering the lake, collaboratively led by the Pigeon Lake Watershed Association and the Alliance of Pigeon Lake Municipalities. Outputs to date include a model land use bylaw for development and redevelopment of land within 0.8 km (0.50 mi) of the shoreline, healthy lake lawn maintenance and work on runoff, which is the source of nearly half of the lake's external nutrients.
