BOOK REVIEW: WARRIORS AND WARSHIPS S. BAILEY The author of Warriors and Warships: Conflict on the Great Lakes and the Legacy of Point Frederick(2023) is Dr. Robert (Bob) Banks, a graduate of the Royal Military f ` College (RMC) in Kingston, who became a medical doctor and respected researcher in Canada and the U.S.A. Asa ILA cadet at RMC, he became curious about the history of the surrounding area,and searched for a book that explained it. He found that the book simply did not exist. Bob was inducted to the RMC Wall of Honour in 2020,one of only a few living inductees. The Wall of Honour plaque R O B E R T D. BANKS refers to him as"Pilot,Physician,Engineer,Educator,Author". Bob iswell known in his specialtyof aerospace medicine and WARRIORSANDWARSHIPS is an expert in acceleration physiology,forensic engineering, and aviation medicine. His work included the analysis of the final moments of breakup of the Space Shuttle Columbia in Conflict on the Great Lakes and the 2003. Legacy of Point Frederick Since his college days, Bob has been fascinated by the history of Point Frederick. Here was a large point of land 00 i extending into Lake Ontario at the mouth of the Cataraqu 11 River. He had many questions, like: what role did the , peninsula play in terms of shipbuilding, how did the area develop, and how did work on the peninsula influence nation building in the aftermath of the War of1812? By educating people about the history of Point Frederick, •................ the book aims to define the historic legacy, and promote the protection and conservation of artefacts on and near this point of land.

About the following: 1. The next 3 pages are for the O-M Heritage Committee for their consideration. If approved by the Heritage Committee, the 3 pages could be officially filed on the Twp web site and/or otherwise made available to `history'. I reserve the right to send copies to archives, etc. 2. The 2 pages following are enlargements (2 in colour) of the images embedded in the first 3 pages (referred to above). If you file `paper' these could be so filed, in that they relate to the above `compilation'. 3. There are 2 (yellow) copies of a `supplement' which I now insert in any Oro African Church book I provide from my modest inventory, to some politician or influential agency. The supplement more or less updates the history of the Church since the book was written. The Heritage Committee might decide to replicate it in some way and include it in any book the Twp sells. Phone me if you wish me to search in my computer for an electronic version of the supplement, so that it can be further enhanced, edited and expanded. 4. Following the yellow folded sheets is a suggestion to the Heritage Committee to replace the missing acknowledgement of Morris Shelswell's contribution to designing and establishing the Hawkestone field-stone monument. 5. I'd like to talk to you about the book, the Legend Of The Drinking Gourd. (I have just recently obtained oral authorization confirming a previous oral authoritization given me by a surviving author, for the Twp to do anything it wants with the book including posting it on the internet. I should be able to provide you written authority within the next week.) Attached is a draft `memorandum' addressing this pseudo-legal issue. If the Township has not already done so, perhaps 15 copies of the book should be printed 'in house' and sold in the foyer of the Township's Administrative Office, and, at the Oro African Church, when it is opened weekends.

A Discussion About The Locations of the First Nations' Village Cahiague' Located In Oro-Medonte Township As it has been linked to Champlain compiled by Tim Crawford, M.Ed., S.O., etc. 2023, 05, 11 North of Warminister is a First Nations' site which has been 'archaeologically dug' by the University of Toront02. It has been assumed to have been the location of the First Nations'village of Cahiague in which Champlain wintered-over, from the fall of 1615 to the spring of 1616. The fact that Champlain wintered-over in Cahiague is a very important element of our local heritage. There is a record of the village of Cahiague being moved every 10 years. There are 3 reported locations in Oro-Medonte: Location 1 North of Warminster, where there was a plaque (a photo of I the unveiling is to the right). I There are a number of documents Y stating that archeologists analysing the Warminster site have found that it does not correlate with Champlain's � j diary describing the village in which he wintered-over. So, alternatively its location might have been either awkestone or near Bass Lake. = (As I recall from research about 20 unve�i�,t�r.ristor,r,1laa at years ago, the Warminster site 'has (Thexf.U C�" aF r�r,rP"�evv Left Ea ftrgtrt No:;tan�.m rs�r p ci �c ,t�a�u.��rmsp r: ee Of 51 d r to �E t aan,Mayo:Of Oull a Thomas 0k lq aI 11 Prd, �.;? -3 r I Na d P�'4 ct end nnc s 6 7I_ pro esort Luk C Ai M land-title ownership by some First R ta t.3,.F �4y i„r,,, ter,r e Nations'trust.) As reproduced from the book Medonte:A Township Remembered,p.9 On a minor point:a question was asked of a French language authority as to the likely pronunciation of the French word Cahiague—which at the time was likely the phonetic pronunciation of the First Nation's word for their village. That authority suggests that the contemporary pronunciation of that word is: "Ka-ee-a-gay". 2 About 2001 this author phoned an archeologist of the U. of T.who provided no additional information to add to the public record. 1 Page 21 of 101 4.b) Correspondence received May 19, 2023 Tim Crawford re: Matters for C... Further, the Warminster site has a serious `public access' problem3. Location 2 The only reference to Bass Lake found by the author was that it was located `South-west of Bass Lake.'

An Historical Map of Simcoe County,compiled and drawn by Jerrine Wells Kinton,copyright 1944,Jerrine Wells Kinton There are 4 available sources locating the site: x i) the historical map of Simcoe County (see above); ii) the map of Champlain's route (on the left); iii) the following text: "...(Champlain) passed through some of the largest of the Huron villages, and f after sixteen days came out at Cahaigue, y x � which was situated close to Lake Simcoe and almost on the site of the modern r Hawkestone."'

Century a shoreline point east of Hawkestone Colby,Toronto, 1915, p. 106 was commonly known as Point Cahaigue. 3 This author visited the site around 2001. We walked down a lane,climbed over a fence,traversed private property, climbed over another fence, and discovered a nondescript site purportedly Cahaigue. At the time the Provincial plaque had been removed likely by vandalism. The visit was`directed'by a neighbour of the site. 4 Context of: Map of Champlain's Route, 1615-16, Edin Bartholomew, Chronicles of Canada, Book 3, Part II,The Rise of New France,written by Charles W.

It is the intent of this writer to now promote the Hawkestone site as a possibility, if not a probability, as to where Champlain `wintered-over', and, therefore now promote the suitable acknowledgement/designation of the Hawkestone site, including proposing a plaque either near the lake or on the Ridge Road with a picturesque view of Lake Simcoe.' There seems to be no `down-side' to such an hypothesis and subsequent promotion of the Hawkestone site. Any future precisely-worded plaque would only enhance the First Nations/French heritage of the region. Should the analysis ultimately be supported, it is suggested that some location near the shore of Lake Simcoe, just north of Robinson St, Hawkestone, be designated and celebrated as a possible/probable site of Point Cahiague. As an option, a site could be created bordering on the "Ridge Road", of a half-acre or more, designated as a visitor's site, along with a plaque — all celebrating First Nations and European Explorations in Oro-Medonte. There could be land owners east of Hawkestone, on the Ridge Road, who would make available a half-acre of land for a suitable park. There should be a number of `partners' who would contribute to the development of the site. Tim Crawford 705 487 2574 5 The author has travelled the area a number of times and identified vistas including of Lake Simcoe on the Ridge Road,east of Hawkestone,on which there could be an historic plaque accurately hypothesizing a First Nations'settlement. 3 Page 23 of 101 4.b) Correspondence received May 19, 2023 Tim Crawford re- Matters for C ................. .......... ........

Re: Making Available for Sale, The Legend of the Drinking Gourd In that the Township was given permission by the remaining author of this booklet to reproduce and sell the book at a profit, it is suggested that a simple card, folded so that it stands up, be located on or near a copy of the book. The suggested wording of the card could be: The Legend of the Drinking Gourd was the first book compiled from meticulous research in Canadian archives, to clearly establish the original history of the Oro Black Wilberforce Settlement. It dispelled folklore about the Settlement as a terminus of the Underground Railway, and established its uniqueness as a contiguous farming communitX, from Lake Simcoe to Georgian Bay. It was first established solely for Black military veterans. Later, the settlement was made available to any Black. Further, the book clearly illustrates that Blacks in Oro were not ghettoised, for they settled throughout the Township. All this was about 30 years prior to the historically acknowledged beginning of the Under Ground Railway. This humanitarian decision in 1819 by the British Commonwealth to grant Blacks homesteads in a continuous farming settlement was an historic first by any world power. The above text also might be archived in the Twp Office as a future reference, for it summarizes the very essence of the importance of Oro's Black Wilberforce Settlement.

That the volunteers be thanked for their time and resourcefulness in completing this project to preserve the items of the Township of Oro-Medonte. Background As a follow up from a member of the Heritage Committee, there are numerous uncatalogued items that have accumulated, either via donation or when the Township Administration Building was renovated, in the basement. Staff reached out to the Heritage Committee members to inquire if there were volunteers interested in donating their time to review the said items and prepare an inventory list. Corporate Services Heritage Committee Meeting, Monday, June 19, 2023 CS2023-020 Page 1 of 3 Page 31 of 101 5.a) CS2023-020, Committee Members Dorothy Moore, Ruth Fountain, Jessica... Three Heritage Committee members, Dorothy Moore, Ruth Fountain and Jessica Allen, Joanna McEwen (a member of the public/local historian/artist), and the Intermediate Planner, volunteered their time to review the items and prepare an inventory list with recommendations for their placement (Refer to Appendix 1). The Simcoe County Archives staff were also contacted, and subsequently attended the Township Administration Centre, to confirm the appropriateness of the items that may be transferred to the Simcoe County Archives. Analysis The volunteers sorted through all the heritage related items that had been donated to the Township or previously mounted on the walls in the Council Chambers and were now being stored at the Township office. They looked at each item, one by one, to document and label them. Based on the nature of the items, the volunteers made recommendations with the various items, as outlined in Appendix 1 to: - be donated to various organizations, e.g., Fair Board, - be transferred to the Simcoe County Archives / Museum, - be returned to families, - be presented to Council for a decision. With respect to the recommendations for the present Council to decide on specific items, respectfully to inform the Committee that Council has adopted a Records Retention By-law, which governs the keeping of corporate records.

Or they're mounted on a rock overlooking somewhere where something once happened. Cast in bronze or lettered on a sign, they're sometimes the only history lesson many of us ever get. And now Parks Canada wants hundreds of them changed. "The way that many of the national historic designations are framed and positioned does not do justice to the breadth of impacts that they had on Canadian society," said Pat Kell, the agency's director of heritage. Parks is in the middle of a three-year program to re-examine and rewrite the plaques that the Historic Sites and Monuments Board use to point out places deemed important to understanding Canada's past. Sites slated for rewrite include fur trade forts such as Fort Langley in British Columbia and Manitoba's York Factory. Others relate to the War of 1812, like Queenston Heights in Ontario. Some involve historic figures who held beliefs at odds with current standards. They include one of the Fathers of Confederation, John A. Macdonald; Archibald Belaney, otherwise known as Grey Owl; and Nicholas Flood Davin, founder of one of the West's first newspapers. The rationale for the changes, as well as a list of priority sites, is outlined in a document obtained under Freedom of Information legislation. Page 38 of 101 5.b) Kayla Thibeault, Committee Member re: Correspondence dated May 19, ... The document says that out of 2,192 historic sites, about two-thirds of plaque texts are fine. Of the remainder, more than 200 are considered high priorities for change. Reasons include ignoring Indigenous contributions or using antiquated language, such as "Indian" or "Eskimo." Another issue is controversial beliefs held by historical figures. The most common reason for rewriting -- covering plaques for French explorer Jacques Cartier, Alberta's Bar U Ranch and Nunavut's Kekerten Island Whaling Station -- are "colonial assumptions," the document says. "Plaque texts can be described as 'Whiggish' in character," it says. "This refers to a form of history where the progress of western civilization is understood as inevitable. "Earlier assumptions about Canadian history that have excluded Indigenous people, among others, can no longer be accepted." Those plans have drawn accusations of presentism -- the mistake of judging the past by standards of the present. Such charges have been levelled by Larry Ostola, former vice-president of heritage conservation at Parks Canada. "A new woke perspective is being imposed on what was formerly an apolitical, fact-driven historical designation process," he wrote in the National Post. But Kell said the changes are being partly driven by the 2015 report of the Truth and Reconciliation Commission. One of the calls to action recommended Canada "develop a reconciliation framework for Canadian heritage and commemoration." She said it's an attempt to use the latest scholarship to broaden the stories told, not erase familiar ones. "They build on what was there before. They take that as a starting point and add additional layers and voices. "It's important to continue to reflect on these events. There are additional layers of understanding about them and some of those understandings are not celebratory." Many of the high-priority sites are old fur trade forts. "Many designations associated with the fur trade have excluded the essential role of Indigenous people," the document says. "By providing recognition of Page 39 of 101 5.b) Kayla Thibeault, Committee Member re: Correspondence dated May 19, ... the necessary partnership that existed between the two cultures, this gap in historical significance will begin to be rectified." Concerns over how Indigenous perspectives are included also affects sites associated with the War of 1812, in which many First Nations warriors fought alongside British troops and Canadian militias. Other plaques are trying to come to grips with ideas many famous and accomplished Canadians publicized that are today considered abhorrent. William Osler, sometimes called the father of modern medicine, mocked Indigenous people and wrote Canada "should be a white man's country." But Bob Coutts, for many years the chief historian of the Historic Sites and Monuments Board, said it's a mug's game trying to decolonize sites that are historic, largely because of their role in colonization. "The story still focuses on a colonialist story," he said. "You could pad it a little bit, but it's still going to be a plaque about the building of a fur trade fort." As well, the whole idea of plaques depends on written history. That works against Indigenous history, Coutts said. "Those rules lend themselves to white, colonialist history. Someone wrote it down." What gets commemorated is changing, said Kell. "We are actively working with members of a variety of communities who have not been well served in order to ensure there are subjects of importance to them that are becoming part of our national program of commemoration." Priority areas for that effort include the history of diversity, Indigenous history and environmental history. Still, messing with history is always going to be complicated, said Coutts. "I love stories that are complex. That's what history is. There isn't a narrative that goes from A to B. "On the other hand, there's still a story in there somewhere that needs to be told."

Oro-Medonte Rail Trail Statement of Cultural Heritage Value The Oro-Medonte Rail Trail was a significant historical connective rail route for the development of community hamlets within the geography of the modern Township of Oro-Medonte for over 150 years. The three main hamlets on the route are Hawkestone, Oro Station and Shanty Bay. The route, which todays serves as passive transportation connection between the various urban centres, was officially opened on December 8, 1871 as the Toronto Simcoe and Muskoka Railway. The 32 miles in length skirts the northern shore of Lake Simcoe to support the travel of persons and industry between the landmark rail stations. The railway's connectivity added financial resources for the farmers of the communities. The goods shipped out of the stations contributed tremendously to the prosperity of the communities. This functioning rail route provided significant historical value as the mode of travel linking these historic settlement areas. The development of the rail routes provided for advancements to the communities such as the mail delivery, telegraph services, travel and community growth. As vehicular travel sophisticated over the 1900's, the reliance on rail travel decreased. Most rail routes were decommissioned in the 1960s with the final mail trains leaving Shanty Bay on June 22, 1963. Today the route has been overhauled with flat crushed gravels providing for a beautiful route to walk, bike and explore between the urban locations. Historic plaques mark the rail stations providing the historical value of it's route to it's many users. Legal Property Description 1 . Hawkstone • Legal Description: • Roll No.: 2.

PURPOSE: To develop a standard operating procedure for adding and removing designated and non- designated (listed) properties to and from the Township's register of heritage properties. 2. SCOPE: This procedure applies to Township Staff, Heritage Committee members and the members of the public who are interested in preserving properties that have cultural heritage value or interest. 3. DEFINITIONS: Designated property: Properties that meet two or more criteria for determining cultural heritage value or interest as set out in Ontario Regulation 9/06 may be designated under part IV of the Ontario Heritage Act. The designation provides formal recognition of the importance of the property through a municipal By-law that is registered on title. Designation allows Council to manage alterations and demotion of specific heritage attributes that are listed in the Designation By-law. Heritage attributes: means, in relation to real property, and to the buildings and structures on the real property, the attributes of the property, buildings and structures that contribute to their cultural heritage value or interest (Ontario Heritage Act). Non-designated (listed) property: Properties that meet one or more criteria for determining cultural heritage value or interest as set out in Ontario Regulation 9/06 may be listed as a non- designated (listed) property on the municipal register of heritage properties. Listing of non- designated properties provides interim protection against demolition as owners are required to provide 60 days notice in writing of their intention to demolish or remove the building or structure.

Sib (W Township of ffe&W_Arl Proud Heritage,Exciting Future Municipal Heritage Register Policy Register: Register of properties that are of cultural heritage value or interest in the municipality. The municipal register of heritage properties lists all the properties in the municipality that are designated under Part IV (individual property designation) and Part V (within a designated heritage conservation district) of the Ontario Heritage Act. The Ontario Heritage Act also allows municipalities to include non-designated (listed) properties on their register. 4. PROCEDURE: Non-designated (listed) properties Process for adding a non-designated (listed) property to the register: 1) The property owner, member of the public or Heritage Committee member submits the Cultural Heritage Resource Evaluation Form (Appendix A) to the Heritage Committee to request that the property be listed on the register. 2) The Heritage Committee reviews the request and ensures that the property meets one or more of the criteria for determining cultural heritage value or interest as set out in Ontario Regulation 9/06, as amended. 3) If applicable, Staff mail a letter to the property owner informing them of the Heritage Committee's interest in listing their property on the heritage register. • The Heritage Committee's practice is to notify the property owners of the Township's interest in listing their property, prior to adding it to the register; however, this notification is not required under the Ontario Heritage Act. 4) Once Staff receive a response back from the property owner, the request is brought back to the Heritage Committee for their review and to make a recommendation to Council regarding the inclusion of the property on the register. 5) Staff advise the owner of the Committee's recommendation and let them know when the matter will be brought forward to Council. 6) Council decision. 7) If approved, within 30 days of Council's approval, Staff are required to notify the property owner that their property has been listed on the register. The notification must include the following: • A statement explaining why Council believes the property to be of cultural heritage value or interest; • A description of the property that is sufficient to readily ascertain the property; • A statement that if the owner of the property objects to the property being included in the register, the owner may object to the property's inclusion by serving on the clerk a notice of objection setting out the reasons for the objection and all the relevant facts; and, • An explanation of the restriction concerning the demolition or removal of a building or structure on the property. 8) Staff add the property to the Township's online register and Story Map.

Process to remove a non-designated (listed) property from the register: 1) If the property owner wants their non-designated (listed) property removed from the register, they have to provide the Clerk with a notice of objection stating the reasons for the objection and all the relevant facts. The notice of objection must include the Township's Municipal Register Correction/Removal Application Form (Appendix B). 2) The Heritage Committee reviews notice of objection, application form and any supporting documentation and makes a recommendation to Council. 3) Staff advise the owner of the Committee's recommendation and let them know when the matter will be brought forward to Council. 4) Council considers the notice of objection and makes a decision as to whether the property will remain on the register or whether it should be removed. 5) Within 90 days of Council's decision, Staff must provide the property owner with a notice of Council's decision. 6) If approved, the property is removed from the Township's register, Story Map and the listing note is removed from the property file in the Township's computer system.

Session 2C - Kahentakeron Deer, Kayla Cicman et al — "A Grand River Runs Through It" Three presentations will look at the social and economic impact of the largest river in Ontario, first to the indigenous communities that used it for thousands of years, later to pioneering settlements established on the river that still runs through what is now a heritage downtown core. Early industrial growth and development along the Grand was followed by an economic decline due to decreasing importance of mills and river industry. Presentations will focus on both the challenges and the successful outcomes of preserving an environmentally healthy river and repurposing heritage riverbank structures as a means of rebuilding the river's importance as a community benefit to all, an economic driver, and a tourist attraction. Six Nations of the Grand River: Kahentakeron Deer (Kerdo), an Ecological Team Leader, will discuss the Grand River from an Indigenous perspective: the Six Nations heritage of life around the river, the subsequent effects that different mills and development had on indigenous communities, and Six Nations vision for continued use and enjoyment of an environmentally sustainable natural feature. County of Brant: Kayla Cicman, Arts, Culture & Heritage County of Brant will address how the Grand impacts the entire county of Brant including the town of Paris, where both banks of the river are dotted with heritage structures from the colonial period. Fergus and Elora: Members of the MHC for Centre Wellington will highlight how these connected towns straddling the deep Grand River gorge continue to use and celebrate the river as well as numerous adjacent heritage buildings/structures for economic benefits and for recreational opportunities.
