2004 CONVENTION WELCOME
From Tuesday, May 11 through to Thursday, May 13, we will be at the Telus Convention Centre for a full slate of technical sessions as well as a day of special sessions. Satinder Chopra and the technical team will showcase the innovative ideas and technology that are essential for the advancement of the science of geophysics. The convention is a great place to share these developments, so we encourage CSEG members to consider presenting a technical paper. Remember, it is you who are the driving force behind our exploration successes. The Exhibit Floor has been sold out in previous years, so sign up early. Carmen Swalwell and her committee are working hard at creating an Exhibit Floor with the leading companies in the field of geophysics. These exhibitors will be there to share their products and ideas essential to our geophysical work. New this year will be a charity auction on the Exhibit Floor on Tuesday, May 11. Make sure you take time to walk through the exhibit hall, check out the many items, and place your bids before the silent auction ends in happy hour between 4 pm and 5 pm on Tuesday. There will be a breakfast with the exhibitors and interpretation contest.

NORTHERN NAMES
Don C. Barnett
INTRODUCTION 1. Explore the reasons behind some town, city, river, and/or street names in your community. 2. How should names be selected? New buildings, roads and streets require naming. Could we use bird and animal names? Can we draw from our historical and cultural backgrounds to select meaningful names? 3. Select things to name in your community. Decide which new names would be appropriate. 4. Consider reasons based on history, tradition, culture, and geography. Look at some names in northern Canada that tell about that part of the world. Find these places on a map. Search for more information about people who had places named in their honor. NAMES ACROSS THE NORTH What's in a name? Names of some places are based on historical background INDIAN NAMES First Nations peoples have been named by themselves as well as by other aboriginal groups. Those who shared a common territory, spoke the same language, and had similar customs called themselves "we, people". The word for people in Inuktituk is "Inuit". The word for people among the Athapaskan speaking Indians is "Dene", and the Algonkian word for people is "Eno", "Eyo", or "Ewo". Some smaller bands of people would call their neighbors such things as people of the mountains or people of the pointed coats. Enemies were called names which were rude. These included things such as bad people, stinkers, or louse eggs. The Indian referred to Inuit people as Eskimos, or eaters of raw meat. The Cree called the inhabitants living inland as "strangers" hence, the origin of the word "Athabascan". It was the word that white men heard which referred to the many northern Indian groups inhabiting Canada's sub-Arctic.

General Canada Created: 22nd May 2001 Canadian Toponymy Front Page Who's Online Add Entry Peer Review ... Help Like this page? Send it to a friend! Toponymy is, by definition, the place names of a particular region and the study of those place names. It is derived, in fact, from the two Greek words topos - meaning place and onoma - meaning name. A toponymist will look at not only the surface meaning of the name in question, but also at the history of the area. Doing so reveals the story behind the place, or as geographer David Nelson calls it, the '20% geography and science and 80% ignorance, myth and greed - the arbitrary, impulsive, and ironic, snarled in history and politics.' Few countries, however, have quite so colourful a toponymy as Canada. Perhaps this example says it best; Canada's beloved moose is honoured 662 times in places like Moose Jaw and Moose Factory, but Queen Victoria, patroness of many of the English explorers, can be traced to only 157 sites, a third of which are in Ontario. The Geographical Names Board All Canadian place names go through the Geographical Names Board of Canada. Created in 1897, the GNBC has undergone three name changes itself, but it continues to authorize the official names for government maps. It consists of 27 members - one from each province and territory - and government board representatives concerned with mapping, translations, statistics, archives, defence, national parks, and Indian lands. A further four members deal with etymology, classification, computer services (

History of British Columbia
The British started trading with the native population after the visit of James Cook in 1778. Much of the coast of B.C. was mapped by two expeditions, one British and the other Spanish, neither of them knowing that the other was there until they met in Georgia Staight in 1792. The British party was commanded by Captain George Vancover.
The two expeditions explored the coast from Puget Sound nothward through Georgia Straight and sailing together they reached Nootka Sound. There they discussed the ownership of the newly discovered coast. In 1795, under the Nootka Convention the Spanish withdrew from the area. About the same time the interior of B.C. was being explored and discovered. In 1793 the British explorer Sir Alexander Mackenzie who was in the service of the North West Co. ascended the Peace and Parsnip rivers in search for an overland route to the Pacific. He crossed the low divide to the Fraser River and turned westward up the West Road River and found a low pass through the mountains to Bella Coola. Soon other fur traders followed and in 1805 the first fur trading fort was built in Fort McLeod. This fort was situated just north of where the city of Prince George is today. In 1808 the American born explorer Simon Fraser completed the journey down the swift and mighty Fraser River to it's mouth in 1808. About the same time the the Canadian surveyor and explorer David Thompson mapped the rivers of the Kootenay region. and in 1812 he explored the Columbia river to its mouth. During this peroid the mainland was known as New Caledonia.

Chapter 3 - "Early European Explorers" Norwegians though there be very little record of it visited the most northern parts of eastern North America over a thousand years ago. Indeed, maybe before the Norwegians, the Irish paid a visit; or maybe, in classic times, the Greeks. However, what we do know, pretty well for sure, is that the Norsemen first came to Iceland, then as the decades and centuries unfolded they traveled beyond Iceland, to Greenland; and, then again, beyond Greenland to the shores of Baffin Island and Labrador; and then, swinging south, in their frail vessels, down they came along the upper coast of eastern North America. Whatever motivated these northern Europeans to keep extending their northern voyages, and exactly when they might have made them, are further matters on which we are obliged to speculate. Was it for timber? Was it new lands for splintered clans? Whatever the extent of their explorations and the timing of them, it is believed that any settlements of the Norsemen were but of a temporary kind and that they made no great impact or contribution to the exploration of North America. Before we deal with such known explorers as Cabot and Cartier, we must acknowledge the thousands of seafaring men, who, in the process of making a living, came to the shores of America, especially those that are washed by the waters that flow over the great fishing banks of the northwestern Atlantic. Discovery, like everything else in life, is an evolutionary process and one voyage by one family was built upon the knowledge gained on a previous voyage of another family member; only slowly did the Europeans become aware of their courses and their objectives that lie to the east over the ocean.

What Do Winston Churchill and Sir Alexander Mackenzie Have in Common
Sir Alexander Mackenzie ranks as one of the most remarkable persons of North American wilderness history and, indeed, as one of the greatest travelers of all time. His transcontinental crossing predated (and indeed inspired) the more famous Lewis and Clark American expedition by twelve years. Even Bernard De Voto, the well-known Utah-born historian said of Mackenzie, "In courage, in the faculty of command, in ability to meet the unforeseen with resources of craft and skill, in the will that cannot be overborne, he has had no superior in the history of American exploration." I remember singing around the YMCA Camp Elphinstone and Camp Howdy campfires: ‘This Land is your Land, This Land is My Land, from the Arctic Circle to the Great Lake Waters,…from the Atlantic Ocean to Vancouver Island, this Land was made for you and me". ’ In Mackenzie was realized the dream of a Canada stretching from sea to sea. Beneath the lion and the unicorn supporting the coat of arms of Canada are the Latin words: A MARI USQUE AD MARE, taken from a Biblical text, ‘He shall have dominion also from sea to sea and from the river to the ends of the earth. Without Alexander Mackenzie (and his Nor’Wester friends Simon Fraser and David Thompson), Canada would have lost her entire Pacific Coast, being shut off from any access to the sea. In 1764, Alexander Mackenzie was born in Stornoway on the Isle of Lewis, a windswept, rugged island in the Outer Hebrides off the west coast of Scotland. When Alexander was ten, his mom died. Neighbours, knowing he had memorized long passages from the Bible, predicted that Alexander would become a clergyman. Through the local pastor’s library, he learned about astronomy and the use of telescopes. At age 13, Alexander tabulated all the animal and plant life in the Hebrides, and he and his pastor tried unsuccessfully to get it published in London.

Important dates in the history of exploration! Man's natural urge to explore his environment has led to the population of most of the world's surface. Often these activities were intended to be purely peaceful or scientific in nature but inevitably ended in some kind of exploitation of either the land or indigenous people. This timeline covers the peaceful and often ingenious attempt to explore the world over both land and sea using navigational and other technological aids developed for this purpose.
(circa) About this time the lateen sail was first used on the Mediterranean Sea. Compass invented in China. Amazed travelers to China see toilet paper. 13 Jun 1415 Henry the Navigator, the prince of Portugal, embarked on an expedition to Africa. This marked the beginning of Portuguese dominance of West Africa. The Portuguese reach the Madeira Islands. Prince Henry the Navigator (1394-1460) of Portugal gathered cartographers, navigators and shipbuilders in a fortress in Sagres, Portugal, to invent navigation technology to reach India, China and the Americas.
