Albert and Temmy Latner Jewish Public Library

The Albert and Temmy Latner Jewish Public Library in Toronto, Ontario, Canada was founded in 1941 as the Jewish Public Library by bookseller Ben Zion Hyman. The library began as a small independent collection located at Hyman's storefront on Spadina Avenue in the late 1930s until 1941 when the public library was formally established and moved to a set of rooms in the College Street and Spadina Avenue area. It later moved to the intersection of Markham Street and Harbord Street and then Glen Park and Glenmount Avenues. In 1983, it settled in its final location in the Lipa Green Building at 4600 Bathurst Street. The library became part of the Latner Centre of Jewish Knowledge and Heritage in 2005. However, the centre disbanded in 2008 and the library closed at that time "due to a lack of resources and a decline in circulation of books being taken out." The former library's books and resources were kept in a storage facility until 2016, when the library's collection was acquired by Mizrahi Bookstore, of Brooklyn, New York.

Algonquins de Pikwàkanagàn

Les Algonquins de Pikwàkanagàn (en anglais : Algonquins of Pikwakanagan First Nation) est une Première Nation algonquine de l'Ontario, au Canada. Leur territoire est constitué de la réserve de Pikwàkanagàn, précisément située dans l'ancien canton de South Algona (qui fait maintenant partie de la Bonnechere Valley) dans la vallée de l'Outaouais sur le lac Golden, tout juste au sud de la localité de Golden Lake. En 2008, la population enregistrée de la Première Nation est de 1 992 personnes, dont 406 personnes vivent sur leur propre réserve. Le nom Pikwàkanagàn vient de l'algonquin, signifiant « pays vallonné [couvert] de conifères » ou simplement « endroit vallonné ». Histoire En septembre 1856, cinq familles demandent au Gouverneur général une concession de 81 hectares de terres par famille depuis que leurs terrains de chasse ont été ouverts à la colonisation et à la vente. Leur demande se voit refusée. Cependant, le 17 septembre 1873, les Algonquins de Pikwàkanagàn reçoivent finalement un total de 632 hectares, qui devient par la suite la réserve de Pikwàkanagàn. Gouvernance La Première nation est gouvernée selon un système électoral coutumier, composé d'un chef et de six conseillers. Ils sont élus pour une durée de trois ans. Pour le mandat 2020-2023, la chef actuelle est Wendy Jocko et les conseillers sont Jim Meness, Dan Kohoko, Merv Sarazin, Steven Benoit, Barbara Sarazin et Angelina Commanda. Le conseil est un membre indépendant de la Nation Anishnabek, une organisation politique représentant de nombreuses Premières Nations qui ne sont pas situées dans l'extrême nord de l' Ontario. Réserve La Première Nation est établie sur la réserve indienne de Pikwàkanagàn, anciennement connue sous le nom de réserve indienne de Golden Lake 39. Leur réserve de 688,8 hectares est adjacente au hameau de Golden Lake qui est situé entre les villages de Killaloe et Eganville, à environ 40 kilomètres au sud de Pembroke. La réserve est située sur les rives sud du lac Golden et de la rivière Bonnechère. Leur réserve est la seule réserve enregistrée située en Ontario entièrement algonquine, les autres étant situées au Québec. Il s'agit également de l'une des seules réserves indiennes de l'est ontarien, avec celles d'Akwesasne et de Tyendinaga.

All Saints Anglican Church (Ottawa)

All Saints' Anglican Church is a former Anglican church in Ottawa, Ontario, Canada. The building was sold in 2015 and is currently a community hub for the neighbourhood, called All Saints Sandy Hill. History The Anglican Diocese of Ottawa was only two-years-old when on 15 April 1898, Henry Newell Bate (Chairman of the Ottawa Improvement Commission) asked Bishop Charles Hamilton to form a new parish in Ottawa. By 24 June, all of the necessary preparations had been made. Bate laid the first stone himself on 2 April 1899. The chief cornerstone was laid by the Bishop on 7 June that same year. The first services were held in the church on 4 February 1900. The first Rector of All Saints’ was the Reverend A. W. Mackay, the former Curate of the old Saint John's Anglican Church, which was on Sussex Street where the Connaught Building stands today. He held this post until his death in August 1919. The church, however, was not consecrated until the 1 February 1914. This was done following the decision by (now Sir) Henry Bate to give the church and land to the Rector and his wardens as a gift on 21 January. The church at Chapel Street at Laurier Avenue, which was designed 1898-99 by Alfred Merigon Calderon, is of Gothic Revival design. The former church features a crenellated tower with a nine-bell chime, and no fewer than fourteen stained glass windows. Commemorated by memorial windows, are MacKay, Sir Robert Laird Borden, Prime Minister from 1911 to 1920, and several other former members of the congregation. In 1934, Bate Memorial Hall was added by Thomas Cameron Bate (son of Sir Henry Bate) in honour of the church's founder. The church also held the state funeral for Sir Robert Borden, in 1937. In 2014, the congregation merged with St. Margaret's Anglican Church, Vanier, and the historic building was put up for sale. The site was purchased in December 2015 by All Saints Development Inc., who plan to turn the site into a community hub containing a wedding venue, a conference centre, and other amenities. The space will also be an interpretive centre for Prime Minister's Row, an improvement initiative for the historical neighbourhood.

Allan's Mill

Allan's Mill was a watermill located on both banks of the Speed River in Guelph, Ontario, Canada. Part of the site is now listed under the Ontario Heritage Act. Allan's Mill The first industrial establishment in Guelph, the original wooden mill was built in 1830 for the Canada Company by Horace Perry, who sited it on the west (right) bank of the Speed River. The mill was sold to William Allan in 1832, who operated it as a grist and flour mill; by 1836, the mill complex was expanded on both sides of the river to include a distillery, a brewery, and a wool carding house operated by William and his son David Allan. Around 1850, the original wooden structure was removed and replaced with one made of limestone, and a bridge was added across the river, connecting the two halves of the mill. Old reports state that the new grist mill building had cylindrical turrets, such as those found in Scotland. The distillery sold large quantities of whisky and other spirits. Around 1877, the Allan family sold the mill to David Spence of Brantford; it remained in operation as a flour mill until a series of fires gutted the building. Later developments on the site The site on the west bank of the river later became home to several industries, including the Flexible Conduit Company (later the Dalyte Electric Co.) which occupied the site between 1909 and 1929. In the 1960s, the site was home to a feed and seed business and a plastics firm, until the buildings were destroyed by fire in 1966. The ruins of the stone building are now a part of Guelph's Heritage Park. On the east bank of the river, the Arthur Street building which had previously housed the distillery became home to a variety of companies: it first housed the McCrae Woollen Company until 1900 when the A.R. Woodyatt (later Taylor-Forbes) foundry purchased the site. Taylor-Forbes occupied the site until its 1955 bankruptcy; the site was sold to the W. C. Wood Company and was then used to manufacture appliances until the business was shut down in 2010. After a period of brownfield restoration, construction began in 2014 on The Metalworks, a new condominium apartment complex on the site of the old W. C. Wood factory. In 2019, as part of the Metalworks development, the Spring Mill Distillery was opened on the site, occupying the same building originally built for the Allan Distillery nearly two centuries before.
