Bell Block (Ottawa)

Bell Block is a building in Ottawa, Ontario, Canada. It is located on 40 Elgin Street between the Central Chambers and Scottish Ontario Chambers. It was built in 1867 to a design by William Hodgson (1827–1904). It gets its name from the original owner, John George Bell. Designated as a heritage property under Part IV of the Ontario Heritage Act, it was honoured with an "Award of Excellence" from the City of Ottawa. Occupants After the building was constructed, it was used by John George Bell and his business partner Alexander Smith Woodburn for their job printing business (Bell & Woodburn). Bell, the owner of the building, retired in 1872, and the business was continued by Woodburn. In 1885, Woodburn established the Ottawa Evening Journal, which was printed from this building until January 1914. References
Sault Canal Emergency Swing Dam

The Sault Canal Emergency Swing Dam is an all-metal structure built by the Dominion Bridge Company in 1896. It sits along the Canadian Sault Ste. Marie Canal, to protect against the rush of water that would occur if something ever damaged the Sault locks. It operates by swinging over the canal and dropping wicket gates into the water. The Emergency Dam was put to the ultimate test on June 9, 1909, when the freighter Perry G. Walker crashed into the upstream lock sending a torrent of water crashing into the downstream lock. The Perry G. Walker and another ship the "Assiniboia" were sent back into the St. Marys River and another ship that was heading upstream out of the locks the "Crescent City" hit the channel wall. The swing dam proved its worth by slowing down the torrent of water. This example of emergency swing bridge is the last of nine ever built. Other examples were previous in Sault Ste. Marie, Michigan, USA and in the Panama Canal. References
Conestogo Lake

Conestogo Lake is an artificial lake on the Conestogo River (a tributary of the Grand River) in Wellington County in Southwestern Ontario, Canada. It is a reservoir with a flood control dam, and covers approximately 628 ha (1,550 acres). 398 cottage lots are located around the lake. Fishing is permitted in the lake and the catch may include: perch, walleye, crappie, and smallmouth bass. A recreational fishing licence is required for legal fishing in Ontario. History Flood control measures had been first used in the 1890s and also by the construction of the Shand Dam that gave form to Lake Belwood in 1942, but a long-term solution was still needed. The dam was proposed by the then Grand River Conservation Commission in 1952, but construction did not begin until 1955 due to local disputes, Hurricane Hazel and lack of government funding during the Korean War. Construction of the dam was completed in late 1957 (roadwork and other items not relating to the dam control were completed afterwards) and officially opened in October 1958. Impact Besides lessened flooding the dam resulted in a number of roads cut off. Two roads were rerouted: Wellington County Road 11 was rerouted around dam north of Wellington County Road 45 with former section south of damn now called Sailing Club Road Leslie Lane is rerouted via Wellington County Road 3, 5 and 10 over two sections A few roads are now severed and some with sections with different names: Side Road 15 is severed with no rerouting or renaming Selinger Road west of dam and 4 Line east of the dam Concession Road 6 west of dam and 6 Line east of dam Land was also lost with areas now underwater. While impact was minimal to Quarindale and Kumpfville, parts of the former village of Hollen are now underwater. Conestogo Lake Conservation Area Conestogo Lake Conservation Area is a recreation area located at the south end of Conestogo Lake near the community of Glen Allan and managed by the Grand River Conservation Authority. Most activities involve use of the lake and during non-winter months. The conservation area hosts snowmobile trails during the winter months when snow is present. Access to the facility is made via Wellington County Road 11. References

St. Philip's Seminary

Saint Philip's Seminary is an apostolate of the Toronto Oratory, a Catholic society of apostolic life. It has been authorized to grant degrees by the province of Ontario. It accepts students for the priesthood who are sponsored by their diocese or by their religious order. History The Philosophy Division of Saint Philip's Seminary was founded in 1986, Gerald Emmett Cardinal Carter requested Fr. Jonathan Robinson, C.O. to provide a place for the philosophical preparation of seminarians for the Archdiocese of Toronto, especially those in residence at Serra House, the archdiocesan house of discernment. In the fall of 1988, a residential program providing intellectual training, spiritual and personal formation was made available to seminarians from Dioceses and Religious Communities. In 2007, a three-year course of studies with an expanded set of degrees was provided at the request of the Archdiocese of Toronto and St. Augustine's Seminary. The Congregation for Education in January 2011 instituted the three-year course of philosophical studies as the norm for seminarians. From its beginning, St. Philip's Seminary was staffed by the Oratorians from the next door Toronto Oratory; they continues to operate the seminary. Principles Seminarians need a program of philosophy of a high intellectual calibre, explicitly directed towards the subsequent study of theology; Seminarians need a program of formation focussing upon the development of a clear understanding of and a deep love for the priestly vocation. Status The seminary has trained men for Roman Catholic priesthood and provided continuing education courses for adults in matters relating to the Roman Catholic faith since its inception. However, the Ontario legislature officially recognized the seminary as a degree-granting institution through the passage "An Act respecting The Oratory of Saint Philip Neri, 1990".

Monument national de l'Holocauste

Le Monument national de l'Holocauste (en anglais : National Holocaust Monument) est un mémorial de l'Holocauste situé dans la ville d'Ottawa, Ontario, en face du Musée canadien de la guerre à l'angle nord-est de la rue Wellington et Booth et à environ 1,5 km de la Colline du Parlement. Le mémorial fut dévoilé le 27 septembre 2017 et a été conçu par Daniel Libeskind. Histoire La Loi sur le monument national de l'Holocauste (projet de loi C-442) qui prévoyait la création du mémorial dans la capitale du Canada, a reçu la sanction royale le 25 mars 2011. La loi a été présentée comme un projet de loi d'initiative parlementaire par Tim Uppal qui était à l'époque Ministre d’État et député d’Edmonton—Sherwood Park. Le monument sera supervisé par la Commission de la capitale nationale. Le monument devait être dévoilé à l'automne 2015 puis repoussé jusqu'au printemps 2017 en raison de retards dans la construction. Le dévoilement officiel a eu lieu le 27 septembre 2017. Le monument a été construit en raison de l'activisme persistant de l'ancienne étudiante à l'Université d'Ottawa, Laura Grosman. Laura a commencé à plaider en faveur de la construction d'un monument commémorant les atrocités commises par les nazis et d'un phare pour les survivants canadiens de l'Holocauste. Elle a fait campagne et rencontré divers députés pour appuyer la présentation d'un projet de loi émanant des députés. Elle est la petite-fille d'une survivante de l'Holocauste née en Pologne.

National Holocaust Monument

Il National Holocaust Monument (in francese: Monument national de l'Holocauste) è un memoriale dell'Olocausto a Ottawa, in Ontario, di fronte al Canadian War Museum all'angolo nord-est di Wellington e Booth Street, a circa 1,5 km da Parliament Hill. È stato progettato da Daniel Libeskind. Il National Holocaust Monument Act (Bill C-442) ha sancito il progetto del memoriale nella capitale del Canada e ha ricevuto l'assenso reale il 25 marzo 2011. Il disegno di legge è stato proposto da Tim Uppal, ministro e deputato, e ha ricevuto il sostegno unanime. Il team per la realizzazione era guidato dalla società canadese Lord Cultural Resources. Il monumento è supervisionato dalla National Capital Commission. L'apertura, prevista per l'autunno del 2015, a causa dei ritardi nella costruzione subì un rinvio alla primavera del 2017. L'inaugurazione ufficiale è avvenuta il 27 settembre 2017. Il monumento presenta una veduta della Torre della Pace e fotografie di Edward Burtynsky. È stato costruito grazie al costante impegno dell'ex studentessa dell'Università di Ottawa Laura Grosman, nipote di un sopravvissuto all'Olocausto di origine polacca. Iniziò a sostenere la necessità della costruzione di un monumento per commemorare le atrocità naziste e per tenere le luci sempre accese sui sopravvissuti all'Olocausto canadesi. Ha promosso una campagna di sostegno e ha incontrato vari membri del Parlamento per promuovere un apposito disegno di legge.

Национальный монумент Холокоста (Оттава)

Национальный монумент Холокоста (англ. National Holocaust Monument, фр. Monument national de l'Holocauste) — мемориал, посвящённый памяти Холокоста в Оттаве, Онтарио. Расположен напротив Канадского военного музея на северо-восточном углу улиц Веллингтон и Бут (местность Лебретон-Флетс), рядом со станцией Оттавского метро «Пимиси», на расстоянии около 1,5 км от Парламентского холма. Мемориал сооружён по проекту Даниэля Либескинда. История Памятник был построен благодаря настойчивым усилиям бывшей студентки Оттавского университета Лоры Гросман, предки которой родом из Польши пережили Холокост. Лора провела кампанию и встретилась с различными членами парламента, чтобы поддержать принятие законопроекта. Национальный закон о памятнике Холокоста (законопроект C-442) в котором было запланировано сооружение мемориала в столице Канады, получил королевское согласие 25 марта 2011 года. Законопроект был внесен в частном порядке Тимом Уппалом, государственным министром и депутатом округа Эдмонтон-Шервуд-Парк, и получил единодушную поддержку. Памятник планировалось открыть осенью 2015 года но затем сроки были перенесены на весну 2017 года из-за задержек в строительстве. Официальное открытие состоялось 27 сентября 2017 года. Описание Поднявшись по ступенькам памятника, посетители видят Башню Мира комплекса зданий Парламента Канады, а на стенах представлены фотографии Эдуарда Буртынского. Часть фотографий связана с действовавшим во время войны негласным запретом на приём еврейских беженцев из Европы в Канаде, инициатором которого был глава иммиграционного агентства Канады Ф. Блэр. Монумент находится в ведении Национальной столичной комиссии.

Arlington Hotel (Paris, Ontario)

The Arlington Hotel is a historic hotel in Paris, Ontario. Built in the early 1850s by O.B. Bradford, it was first known as the Bradford House/Hotel. The Ealand family, who took over the house in 1882 after O.B. Bradford's sudden death, and renamed it the Arlington. The hotel was the site of many important social occasions, including the farewell gathering in 1940 for the first group of Paris soldiers before their departure overseas during the Second World War, which was chaired by Mayor J. P. McCammon. The hotel underwent many ownership changes through the years. In the mid-90s the hotel was bought and renovated before closing in the mid-2000s. In 2014 the hotel was bought by a group of owners who renovated the hotel and restaurant. The restaurant was re-opened as "The Forks at the Arlington", a tribute to Paris being the fork of the Grand and Nith Rivers. The hotel now boasts three eateries: edit. (formerly Woolfe & Wilde, and The Forks at the Arlington), 1851 Public House, and The Library Bar at The Arlington, as well as River's Edge, an events hall across the street overlooking the Grand River. The hotel was recognized as an Ontario Heritage Site on May 15, 1990. History The Bradford House was built in the early 1850s by O.B. Bradford, an immigrant from Pennsylvania. Mr. Bradford owned the hotel until his death in May, 1882. The hotel was then owned by a Mr. Ealand who planned to open a sulfur spring spa. Unfortunately the water turned brown due to rusting pipes. He also added an extension hotel and ran the hotel until his death in 1901. The hotel was then leased to a Mr. Cornish from 1901 to 1925 until the hotel was once again operated by the Ealand family. It was operated by Eva Ealand until 1956 and then Herbert Ealand until 1962. Herbert Ealand sold the hotel to William J. Ferguson. Ferguson became a councilor in Paris and made improvements to the hotel before selling it in 1967. The hotel was bought by Torontonians George Lookers and Art McGill, who sold the hotel later that year. The hotel was then bought by Bob and Rae Anderson, who ran the hotel from 1969-1972. In 1972 the hotel was sold to Michael Perdue who ran it until late 1983 when it was bought by Adrian Parker. Parker, after attempting renovations, sold the building to Athanasios Soliriow. In 1988 Edward Brokhusens sold the hotel to brothers Joe and John Skupnik. In 1998 the brothers completely renovated the hotel and reopened it in 2000. The hotel was closed again in the mid-2000s, only to be bought and renovated again by Nils Foss, reopening to the public in June 2014. The hotel changed hands in June 2016, over to The Other Bird partnership of Erin Dunham and Matthew Kershaw. The Arlington has once again been renovated with 24 literary themed rooms. In 2022 The Other Bird sold the hotel to Carmen's Group, a hospitality company based in Hamilton. In 2025, the hotel was featured in an episode of the reality television series Drag Brunch Saved My Life, with host Priyanka and the show's team staging a drag brunch event in the River's Edge event venue.

National Defence Headquarters (Canada)

National Defence Headquarters (NDHQ; French: Quartiers généraux de la Défense nationale, QGDN) are offices created through the integration of the Canadian Armed Forces Headquarters (CAF HQ) with the civilian Department of National Defence (DND) staff in October 1972. NDHQ is not a specific location, but is instead housed throughout a collection of offices in buildings across the National Capital Region, although it is most commonly identified with the Major-General George R. Pearkes Building on Colonel By Drive in Ottawa. From 2017, various locations have been consolidating at National Defence Headquarters, Carling Campus on Carling Avenue. History During the Cold War, the threat of nuclear attack on the National Capital Region saw an Emergency Government Headquarters constructed 30 km west of Ottawa at CFS Carp; this facility was to house a scaled-down NDHQ, along with the federal cabinet and other political, military and government leaders. Completed in 1974, the George R Pearkes Building was originally built for Transport Canada, until a plan for a new NDHQ in LeBreton Flats was cancelled. Transport Canada instead moved to the newly completed Place de Ville Tower C (1972). Carling Campus was originally Nortel's research and development site, until it was purchased by the Federal Government in 2010. Structure Falling under the Minister of National Defence, NDHQ includes the office of the Chief of the Defence Staff (CDS), who is the senior military commander within the Canadian Armed Forces; and the Deputy Minister, who is the senior civil servant in charge of the Department of National Defence. Also reporting directly to the Minister are the Associate Minister of National Defence, the Judge Advocate General, and several other organizations which are considered part of the Defence Portfolio. Reporting to the CDS are the headquarters of all Canadian Armed Forces commands: Royal Canadian Navy Canadian Army Royal Canadian Air Force Military Personnel Command Canadian Special Operations Forces Command Canadian Joint Operations Command Canadian Forces Intelligence Command Strategic Joint Staff North American Aerospace Defense Command (NORAD) Reporting to the DM are an Associate Deputy Minister and several Assistant Deputy Ministers (ADM): Associate Deputy Minister ADM (Policy) ADM (Finance) ADM (Materiel) ADM (Infrastructure & Environment) ADM (Human Resources - Civilian) Reporting to both the DM and the CDS are the following offices: Vice Chief of the Defence Staff ADM (Public Affairs) ADM (Defence Research and Development Canada) ADM (Information Management) ADM (Review Services) ADM (Data, Innovation and Analytics) See also Canada portal References External links Media related to Department of National Defence Headquarters at Wikimedia Commons
