Alexander Keith’s

Alexander Keith's (рус. Алегза́ндер Кит'с) — канадский пивоваренный завод, основанный в 1820 в Галифаксе в Новой Шотландии Александром Китом, эмигрировавшим из Шотландии в 1817. В настоящее время пивоваренным заводом владеет Labatt, дочернее предприятие InBev (бывшей Interbrew). Он производит также пиво Oland, продаваемое в Атлантической Канаде. В 2004—2005 Keith's стал хорошо известен в англоязычной Канаде благодаря его рекламным роликам, в которых очень патриотичный галигонец (житель Галифакса с килтом и шотландским акцентом) возмущается отсутствием пива Keith's, которое он воспринимает как оскорбление. Самое популярным и продаваемым пивом Keith's является «индийский бледный эль» (India Pale Ale). Для придания пиву известности были использованы и карьера Александра Кита как политика и пивовара, и шотландское наследие Новой Шотландии. В 2002 мэр Галифакса Питер Келли предложил в каждый ящик пива класть приглашение посетить Галифакс. Ссылки Официальный сайт
Henry House (Halifax, Nova Scotia)

Henry House is a two-and-a-half-storey stone house located on Barrington Street in Halifax, Nova Scotia, Canada. The house is designated a National Historic Site, and is both a Provincially Registered Property and a Municipally Registered Property under the provincial Heritage Property Act. History The house was built in 1834 for John Metzler, a prosperous Halifax stonemason and landowner. It is primarily known for its association with William Alexander Henry, a prominent native of Halifax who resided here with his family from 1854 to 1864. Henry was a Father of Confederation, a co-author of the British North America Act, a provincial Attorney General, a Member of the Nova Scotia House of Assembly, a Mayor of Halifax and the first Nova Scotian to serve as a justice of the Supreme Court of Canada. The building served as a Sailors' Home in the late 19th and early 20th centuries, operated by the Navy League of Canada (Halifax Branch). In 1968, it was sold to Richard (Dick) Raymond and Jacques Ducau, who did extensive renovations and opened The Henry House(restaurant) and Little Stone Jug (downstairs tavern) in 1969. (The Stone Jug is slang for prison and was previously the namesake of a Halifax pub on Brunswick St. in the nineteenth century.)) Since then the well-known restaurant has been in continuous operation, and it is still called The Henry House Restaurant & Pub. The Henry House was designated a National Historic Site in 1969. Architecture Henry House has a gable roof, and has ashlar granite facades with ironstone on the gable ends. The architecture is generally representative of a typical style used in early 19th-century British North America for elite residences. In particular, it is an excellent example of the Halifax House style, a design brought to Nova Scotia by Scottish masons and characterized by three bays and a side hall plan.

Indian Brook 14

Indian Brook 14 is a Mi'kmaq reserve located in Hants County, Nova Scotia. It is administratively part of the Sipekneꞌkatik First Nation. History Father Louis-Pierre Thury sought to gather the Mi'kmaq of Peninsular Nova Scotia into a single settlement around Shubenacadie Nova Scotia as early as 1699. Not until Father Rale's War, however, did Antoine Gaulin, a Quebec-born missionary, erect a permanent mission at Shubenacadie (adjacent to Snides Lake and close to the former Residential school). He also make seasonal trips to Cape Sable, LaHave, and Mirlegueche. The Shubenacadie mission's dedication to Saint Anne speaks to a spirit of accommodation on the part of both the French and the Mi'kmaq. Anne, traditionally identified as the mother of Mary, was the grandmother of Jesus himself. The esteemed position of grandmothers in Mi'kmaw society was a point of agreement between Roman Catholicism and the Mi'kmaw worldview, and highlights the complexity and contingency of the 'conversion' process. In 1738, Father Jean-Louis Le Loutre arrived in October of that year at Mission Sainte-Anne, having spent the previous winter in Cape Breton learning the Mi'kmaw language with Abbé Pierre Maillard. During Father Rale's War and King George's War, Mission Sainte-Anne was a sort of military base along with being a place of worship. Coulon de Villiers' hardy troop passed this way on their brutal mid-winter march toward the Battle of Grand Pré in 1747, and Mi'kmaw warriors used the site as a staging point for their attacks on Halifax and Dartmouth during Father Le Loutre's War. During Father Le Loutre's War, Captain Matthew Floyer arrived at the Mission on August 18, 1754, and recorded: Half after Twelve we came to the Masshouse, which I think is the neatest in the Country, 'tis Adorned with a Fine lofty Steeple and a Weather Cock. The Parsonage House is the only Habitation here, the land is good & seems to be more so on the opposite side. Floyer's map, which accompanied his written report, suggests the presence of three structures at the mission site. Twelve months later, the Expulsion of the Acadians began during the French and Indian War and by October 1755, Mission Sainte-Anne appears to have been destroyed. Oral tradition says the Mi'kmaq destroyed the mission to prevent it from falling into the New Englanders possession and dumped it into Snides Lake, which was adjacent to the mission. Notable residents Anna Mae Aquash - murdered American Indian Movement activist. Daniel N. Paul - Mi'kmaq elder, author, activist. Jean-Baptiste Cope - Chief who signed Treaty of 1752.

Roxbury, Nova Scotia

Roxbury is a small ghost town outside of Paradise, Nova Scotia. History Legend has it that about sixty of the Acadian settlers took flight up the river and hid on the South Mountain to escape the Expulsion. Their allies, the Mi’kmaq, raced on canoe from Grand-Pré, Nova Scotia to warn them what was coming in 1755. Lost Acadian Gold Rumours persist that the fleeing Acadians left stashes of gold under Mile Rock on Roxbury Road. Development The Acadians had expanded the Mi’kmaq toe-path into a lane, and the Loyalists made it a road off of what is now Route 201. By the mid-1800s, it had a population of about 70, with a school, a church and homes. A mill exported lumber to the railway station in Paradise. In the late 1800s, Roxbury was a logging community with a population of several dozen, but the community ended after the face of the South Mountain was destroyed by a forest fire in 1903 and the community's source of income was lost.

Veith House

Veith House is an organization whose mission is to meet the needs of children, individuals and families, with empowerment as an ever-present goal. It is located at 3115 Veith St in the North End of the Halifax Regional Municipality, Nova Scotia, Canada. It is just down the hill from one of Halifax's landmarks, The Hydrostone. History Veith House's history dates back to the 1800s. The Halifax Protestant Orphanage (also known as the Protestant Orphan's Home) was in existence from 1857 to 1969. The orphanage was founded by Reverend Robert Fitzgerald Uniacke (rector of St. George Church) in 1857 and was previously located on North Park Street. This became home to a countless number of children, both girls and boys. Among those who worked there as staff during the 1890s was matron Lucy Anne Rogers Butler, an educator and social worker who had spent her early 30s documenting her 1870s travel experiences with her sea captain husband. The orphanage was relocated to Veith Street where it was destroyed in the Halifax Explosion in 1917, claiming the lives of both children and staff. Of the 21 people present in the building at the time of the explosion, only six survived. At this site, a monument has been erected commemorating the lives of the children and staff members lost in the disaster. Post-explosion Post-explosion, the orphanage was rebuilt, but by 1969 the orphanage closed its doors. The property was then transferred to the Halifax Children's Foundation, to be used as the Veith House Community Centre and is still running today.

Isle Haute

Isle Haute is an island in the upper regions of Bay of Fundy in Nova Scotia, near the entrance to the Minas Basin. It is 16 kilometers from Harbourville and eight kilometers south-southwest of Cape Chignecto. The island is part of Cumberland County, Nova Scotia and is three kilometres (1.9 mi) long and 400 metres (1,300 ft) wide. The Mi'kmaq used the island to make stone tools before Europeans arrived and called the island "Maskusetik", meaning place of wild beans, hidden oats. In 1604, Samuel de Champlain gave the present name to the island, which means "High Island" in French, when he observed the towering bluffs, timber and fresh-water springs. The steep 100 m (328 ft) basalt cliffs of the island are the result from volcanic eruptions in the Jurassic period and may have been connected to the North Mountain volcanic ridge on the mainland 200 million years ago, before the Bay of Fundy was formed. In 1878, a lighthouse was built and was staffed until 1956, when fire collapsed the lighthouse and home of the lighthouse keeper. The lighthouse was replaced by a steel tower and is unstaffed. Federally owned, the island is being transferred from the Canadian Coast Guard to the Canadian Wildlife Service to protect its unique ecosystem. The island is also protected under Nova Scotia's Special Places Act to protect early Mi'kmaq archaeological sites. Digging without an archaeological permit or removal of artifacts is prohibited.

Île Haute (Nouvelle-Écosse)

L'île Haute (en anglais : Isle Haute; en mi'kmaq : Maskusetik) est une île dans la baie de Fundy, à 8 kilomètres du cap Chignecto dans le comté de Cumberland (Nouvelle-Écosse), au Canada. Des traces de la présence des Mi'kmaq remontant à 11 000 ans ont été découvertes à l'île Haute. L'île a été mentionnée en 1604 par Samuel de Champlain. Géographie L'île a une longueur de 3 km et une superficie de 80 ha. Elle est entourée de falaises hautes de 100 m. Elle est entièrement composée de basalte du Jurassique. Faune et flore On retrouve 300 taxons végétaux sur l'île. Ce nombre pourrait être cependant supérieur puisque la végétation d'une partie de l'île n'a pas été inventoriée. On y dénombre aussi 60 espèces d'oiseaux migrateurs dont l'océanite cul-blanc, l'eider à duvet, le pygargue à tête blanche et le faucon pèlerin et des oiseaux dont l'île est l'habitat permanent, comme le grand héron. On peut y observer des salamandres cendrées, des phoques communs et des phoques gris. En 2019, Environnement et Changement climatique Canada propose de désigner l'île réserve nationale de faune. Elle est désignée comme réserve nationale de faune en janvier 2025.

St. Paul’s Church (Halifax)

Die St. Paul’s Church in Downtown Halifax ist die älteste protestantische Kirche Kanadas. Geschichte Mit der Proklamation von König Georg II. erfolgte die Gründung der Gemeinde im Jahr 1749. Im Sommer 1750 wurde das Gotteshaus errichtet und am 2. September desselben Jahres eröffnet. Der Bauplan der Kirche basiert auf der St.-Peters-Kirche in der Vere Street in London, die 1722 von James Gibb entworfen wurde. Obwohl eine neue Fassade im Norden, einem größeren Kirchturm 1812, zwei Seitenschiffe 1868 und der Chor 1872 hinzugefügt wurden, ist die Ähnlichkeit beider Sakralbauten vorhanden. Das Bauholz der St. Paul’s Church stammt aus Boston und kam über den Seeweg nach Halifax. Die Grundmauern bestehen aus Backsteinen, die örtlich hergestellt wurden. Mit der Ankunft von Charles Inglis als erstem anglikanischem Bischof von Neuschottland im Jahr 1787 stieg die St. Paul’s Church zur Kathedrale auf und blieb es bis 1865. Gleichzeitig war St. Paul’s auch bis zur Erbauung einer Garnisonskapelle 1844 die erste Garnisonkirche in Halifax. Die St. Paul’s Church erfüllt weiterhin die Funktion einer Pfarrkirche für die Anglikanische Kirche von Kanada. Beschreibung Nach dem Vorraum befinden sich im hinteren Teil des Hauptschiffes Schaukästen, die bedeutende Ereignisse der Geschichte dieser Kirche bildhaft darstellen. Bemerkenswert ist die große Anzahl an Gedenktafeln im Kircheninneren. Sie erinnern an Persönlichkeiten, die einen wichtigen Platz in der Geschichte von Neuschottland und Halifax einnehmen. Die ältesten der Tafeln befinden sich auf der Seitenwand der Kapelle. In der Taufkapelle befinden sich zwei Taufbecken aus Alabasterstein. Die Deckel der Becken sind mit einer Taube geschmückt. Links von den Becken befindet sich ein alter Opferkasten aus Holz. Orgel Die Orgel aus dem Jahr 1908 wurde zwischen 1947 und 1960 restauriert. Sie ist die fünfte Orgel der Kirche und die zweite, die sich im Chor befindet. Die ursprüngliche Orgel soll 1765 von der Ladung eines erbeuteten spanischen Schiffs gekauft worden sein. Zwei Engel an der hinteren Wand der Empore sind Teil der ursprünglichen Orgel, die aus Mahagoni bestand. Das Instrument hat 48 Register (zwei davon sind Transmissionen) auf vier Manualwerken und Pedal. Die Spiel- und Registertrakturen sind elektro-pneumatisch.
