Art Gallery of Sudbury

The Art Gallery of Sudbury (AGS) is a public art gallery in Greater Sudbury, Ontario, Canada. Established by Laurentian University as the Laurentian University Museum and Art Centre (LUMAC) in 1967, the gallery was located in the historic Belrock Mansion until 2025. It is currently operated from a temporary location on Elgin Street in downtown Sudbury until the new gallery at the Cultural Hub within Tom Davies Square is completed by the end of 2026. History The gallery was established as the Laurentian University Museum and Art Centre (LUMAC) in 1967, after Belrock Mansion was transferred to the university for a symbolic price of $1. The mansion, constructed in 1906, was the home of lumber baron William J Bell and his wife Katherine. After their deaths, the mansion was transferred to Sudbury Memorial Hospital in 1954, but a fire in 1955 left the mansion vacant until 1966. The mansion was restored by the Sudbury Centennial Museum Society and LUMAC began operating the following year. In 1997, the operations of LUMAC were transferred to a new community-based organization, and LUMAC was renamed to the Art Gallery of Sudbury. In 2022, Laurentian University announced their intentions to sell Belrock Mansion following the University's financial restructuring, with the gallery's agreement with the university permitting them to stay until May 30, 2025. However, the gallery temporarily closed on October 12, 2023 due to structural issues with the mansion. Its move from the mansion was completed by Spring 2025, with public operations moving to a temporary location on Elgin Street, and the collections being housed by Laurentian until the new gallery is completed by the end of 2026. Permanent collection The 2,100 work permanent collection of the gallery consists of two collections, the Art Gallery of Sudbury collection and the LUMAC collection. The LUMAC collection is held jointly in a trust between Laurentian University and the gallery. The collection includes works from Group of Seven artists Tom Thomson, A. Y. Jackson and Franklin Carmichael, as well as works from Charles Goldhamer and Norval Morrisseau. Relocation The gallery announced in 2009 that it was looking to either renovate Belrock Mansion or begin construction of a new purpose-built venue due to a lack of space. In 2010, plans were announced to begin fundraising for a new 14,000-square-foot (1,300 m2) gallery building with an initial target date of 2014, however the project did not move forward as planned. By 2018, the new gallery was proposed to be housed alongside a new main branch of the Sudbury Public Library. Initially intended to be a new 104,000-square-foot (9,700 m2) building, the project was scaled down to a 65,000-square-foot (6,000 m2) building before being finalized as a cultural hub within Tom Davies Square. The art gallery itself will be located on the lower four storeys of 199 Larch Street. See also Belrock Mansion References External links Official website

Galerie d'art de Sudbury

La Galerie d'art de Sudbury est un musée d'art à Sudbury, Ontario qui est actuellement sans bâtiment principal. Histoire Un plan de 2010 pour déménager dans un nouveau bâtiment nommé en l'honneur du peintre du Groupe des Sept Franklin Carmichael ne se concrétise jamais. Depuis 2022, l'occupation du bâtiment par le musée est mise en doute en raison de la crise financière de l'Université Laurentienne (en), qui envisage de vendre l'ancien manoir Bell. Depuis octobre 2023, le manoir est fermé au public pour des raisons structurelles et ses cours d'art sont transférés au département d'éducation de l'Université Laurentienne. Le musée a prévu de déménager au centre culturel Jonction Est, dont la construction est désormais mise sur pause par la ville.

Arthur Voaden Secondary School

Arthur Voaden Secondary School (often abbreviated as AVSS) was a high school in St. Thomas, Ontario, Canada. Voaden is part of the Thames Valley District School Board. History Originally named simply Arthur Voaden Vocational School, it was one of the first vocational schools in Ontario. It was constructed in a time when secondary school was considered a privilege, and was meant for those entering university or white-collar jobs. The school is named after Arthur Voaden, M. D., a native of nearby Talbotville. After a year of construction, the doors were opened in September 1926. Voaden was the principal of the school from its opening until he died in 1931. AVSS was a composite school that offered all graduation pathways including university, college, apprenticeships, and the workplace. It was also Elgin County's 'emphasis technology' school, offering programming in communications technology, health care, hospitality and tourism, construction/woodworking, hairstyling and aesthetics, and manufacturing. It also offers several Specialist High School Majors (SHSM). Arthur Voaden was also highly regarded for its arts programs, including the exceptional visual art department. On April 28, 2026, it was announced that Arthur Voaden Secondary School would close at the end of the 2025-2026 school year and be replaced by a new school building. The school ceased operations on June 27, 2026, after nearly 100 years in operation. Notable alumni Dan Cloutier – attended Voaden for the 1991–1992 school year while playing for the Jr B St. Thomas Stars as a 15-year-old. He was drafted by the Sault Ste.

Asbury & West United Church

Asbury & West United Church is a United Church of Canada church in the Bathurst and Lawrence area of Toronto, Ontario, Canada. The congregation has one of the longest continual histories of any in Toronto. It traces its history back to 1812 and meetings of small groups of Methodist settlers in what was an area being newly settled by Europeans. The first services were held in the farmhouse of Henry Mulholland, a veteran of the War of 1812 and the Battle of Lundy's Lane. He first came to Canada from Ireland in 1806, settling in the area that would later be named Henry Farm after him. He later moved further west to what is now the Bathurst and Lawrence area. The original small congregation was served by circuit preachers who rode out of the small nearby village of Eglinton, Ontario. In 1817 the congregation began to hold services in a new one room schoolhouse. Mulholland began to clear land for a permanent church building, but he died in the 1833 sinking of the Lady of the Lake. His widow, Jane, donated the land that was being cleared to the church, and a small wooden chapel was erected. The church was named after Francis Asbury, an early Methodist leader. This chapel was destroyed by fire in 1898, and a new brick church was built. In 1925 Asbury Methodist joined the United Church of Canada upon its formation, becoming Asbury United Church. In 1947 the church merged with West United Church. This congregation began its ministry as West Presbyterian Church (in connection with the Free Church of Scotland) in 1860. It was started as a Sunday School from Knox's Free Church, and first met in a hall on Brock Street. A small building was erected in 1864 at Denison (between Spadina and Bathurst) and Queen Street West. In 1879, they constructed a new church building further north of Queen on Denison. In 1910, they moved, to College and Montrose (west of Bathurst), where they became West United Church in 1925 (voting 298-195 on February 27, 1925). In 1928 it was joined by the former Methodist congregation from nearby Clinton Street. By 1947, however, West United's congregation had shrunk, and merged with Asbury to the north. Its original site was sold in 1911 to the O'Keefe family and became St. Stanislaus Polish Catholic congregation in the Roman Catholic Archdiocese of Toronto. The College/Montrose corner is now home to a Spiritualist building that was constructed after West's departure. While long the church for a small rural community, the area around the Asbury congregation changed dramatically with the rise of the suburbs as the Bathurst and Lawrence became part of the rapidly growing suburbs of North York. In the 1950s it was decided that with the families from the former West Congregation, and many newcomers to the community, a new larger church was needed, and the current structure was constructed in that decade.

Ascension of Our Lord Secondary School

Ascension of Our Lord Secondary School is located in the City of Mississauga, in Ontario, Canada. It is part of the Dufferin-Peel Board. It was originally established as a Middle School (Junior High School), but was converted to a Secondary School (High School) in the 1980s. The school building was expanded at that time to accommodate the extra students, and in the 1990s portable classrooms were added and removed as the student population expanded and contracted. In 2005 the original building was demolished and a new larger structure was built. The facility was opened to students in January 2006. In 2012, the Fraser Institute named Ascension as one of Ontario's fastest improving schools. Although a Catholic school, it is open to and welcomes students from all religious backgrounds, even providing accommodations for those of other religions. History The school opened in 1977. Originally it was a middle school. After 1984, when the Province of Ontario decided that Catholic secondary schools were to be fully funded, the school expanded into high school grades up to grade 13. The original school building was demolished in 2005. In January 2006 the current school building opened. The school now goes up to grade 12 and has a program that allows those that need it to stay in the school beyond grade 12. Notable students Carlton Chambers - 1996 Olympic gold medalist in 4 × 100 m relay George Stroumboulopoulos - media personality A.J. Mandani - former international professional basketball player Anthony Nalli - executive television producer /& drummer of Wicked Truth Updates Many complaints have been made by students as well as news sites that the school has not received adequate funding from the school board due to the "socio-economic profile the area is under". Even Parish stated that neglect by the school board is visible. Construction has not started as of yet (2024) but the email states that the funds will be put towards the construction of a new artificial turf soccer field, four-lane oval, and long jump pit at Anaka Park. The park is adjacent to Ascension Of Our Lord Catholic Secondary School. See also Education in Ontario List of secondary schools in Ontario References
Ashbridges Bay Wastewater Treatment Plant

Ashbridges Bay Wastewater Treatment Plant är det största och viktigaste av Torontos fyra reningsverk, och det största i Kanada. Det tar emot avloppsvatten från 1,3 miljoner människor, och har en kapacitet på 818 000 kubikmeter per dag. Fram till 1999 hette det officiellt Main Treatment Plant. Ashbridges Bay öppnades 1912. Innan dess flöt avloppsvattnet från Toronto rakt ut i Ontariosjön, och ett lager tjockt slam täckte vattenytan från stranden och mer än hundra meter ut i sjön. Stadens dricksvatten hämtades också från sjön, och föroreningen bidrog till ett stort utbrott av tyfoidfeber. Reningsverket ligger vid Ontariosjöns strand, vid änden av Leslie Street. I väster ligger Port Lands, som en gång var ett tungt industriområde men idag är övergivet. I norr ligger Leslieville. När reningsverket byggdes var detta stadens östra utkanter, långt bort från de flesta bostäderna. Idag är Ashbridges Bay omgivet av bostadsområden, och stora ansträngningar har gjort för att minimera lukt och föroreningar. Mest anmärkningsvärt är stängningen av reningsverkets förbränningsugnar 1987. En studie av lukten från Ashbridges Bay avslutades 2002, och i början av året gjordes reningsverkets omgivningar om till en landskapspark. År 2005 skrevs kontrakt för att utforma ett nytt system för att kontrollera lukten. Fram tills nyligen transporterades slammet bort med lastbil, men sommaren 2007 nådde luktproblemen skandalösa nivåer när deponin i Michigan stängdes och staden bara transporterade bort sex av tio producerade lastbilar med slam. Resterande slam förvarades till hösten då det användes inom jordbruket. Referenser City of Toronto - About – Ashbridges Bay Wastewater Treatment Plant

Athens District High School

Athens District High School or A.D.H.S is a high school under the Upper Canada District School Board. The school is in the small town of Athens, Ontario, Canada. Its website lists many achievements, including winning awards and media competitions, pioneering new systems of education and taking part in extracurricular courses and international student exchanges.

The parliament consists of two parties, blue and gold. The school's website contains its constitution. The school was recognized in 2008 for its parliament system in an article in Maclean's magazine which said, "Since 1947, the school has held monthly parliamentary sessions(except during the coronavirus 19 pandemic) replete with parties and question periods. It is only an hour from Athens to Ottawa, but Athens high-schoolers don't have to go to the capital to understand our political system." The front of Athens District High School has a mural of the 1921 original school that burned, as well as students from the time period. The eyes and car in the mural seem to follow you when you walk by. Despite being a small school, it has provided its students with many opportunities to travel all over the world. In 2008, "ADHS visited Europe (France, Belgium, The Netherlands), New York, and British Columbia." The school has many clubs for students, such as work crew, global virtual classroom, formal, world issues, envirothon, tech, chess, mathematics, and yearbook.

Atikokan Generating Station

Atikokan Generating Station is a biomass power plant owned by Ontario Power Generation (OPG) located 8 km (5 mi) north of Atikokan, Ontario (190 km (118 mi) west of Thunder Bay). The plant employs 90 people. The Atikokan Generating Station began operation as a coal fired station in 1985 and underwent an overhaul in the autumn of 2003. Until 2012, it had one coal-fueled generating unit with low nitrogen oxide (NOx) burners, providing a peak output of 230 MW fuelled by low-sulfur lignite coal from the Ravenscrag Formation in Southern Saskatchewan. In late 2012, the facility powered down and underwent renovations, due to the Ontario government's initiative to eliminate all coal-fired electricity generation. It is the first generating station to be converted by OPG to be fueled by biomass, and is North America's largest purely biomass-fueled power plant. The conversion came at a cost of C$200 million, and the plant was re-opened on 10 September 2014. Annual production at the plant is approximately 900 million kilowatt-hours (kWh), enough energy to supply approximately 70,000 households for one year. The station occupies an area of 300 ha (741 acres). The plant's chimney is 145 m (476 ft) tall, and the steam temperature is 538 °C (1,000 °F). This plant is connected to the provincial power grid via several 230,000-volt transmission lines. Emissions *Calculated figures for CO2e are rounded to the nearest tonne.
