In the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, the Canadian government advertised homesteading in the Canadian West as a means to a prosperous future. Free land? Who could resist? Never mind the land wasn’t the government’s to give away, homesteaders had strict and financially cumbersome terms to meet, the “free” land wasn’t free, and the landscape lacked even the most basic infrastructure. Without knowing the hardships they’d experience, immigrants from Europe and the United States flooded Western Canada, often leaving their extended families and cultures behind. Author Brad Kuich often wondered why his own family endeavoured such a risky undertaking. Based on research and family stories, The Homesteaders answers this curiosity. It follows his paternal great-grandparents and grandparents from the 1860s in the Central Unites States to the 1960s in Western Canada. This biographical and historical novel reimagines their lives and the hardships they would’ve faced while homesteading. At a young age, Brad’s grandfather Joe learned that while the lifestyle had its challenges, it also had many joys. It’s this resilient spirit, passed down from his own ancestors, that helped Joe persevere against incredible adversity. Raw and candid, The Homesteaders is a glimpse into pivotal events in Canadian history, with some real characters along for the ride. It’s a story of one man finding his purpose and connection in a challenging landscape.
Hedi the Hedgehog is the heart of the Critter Crew, but poor Hedi is having a bad hair day. No matter what she tries, from spray to mousse to straightener, three of her spikes just won’t be tamed. Hedi goes out to see her friends in search of a solution. Each of the other animals in the pond is wearing a hat more unique and wonderful than the last, but will any of them be the right fit for Hedi? Or will she be stuck with a bad hair day forever? Hedi the Hedgehog and the Sparkle in the Pond is the first book in a series about Hedi and the Critter Crew. Hedi's bad hair day teaches children that our quirks are part of the beauty of who we are, and highlights what makes each of us special. It reminds us that true beauty and joy come from kindness, friendship, and embracing who you are—not from great hair days.
The broad, global perspectives of environmental management, sustainability, and stewardship provide the context for this book. Within this broad framework, a location in the Township of Centre Wellington, southern Ontario, serves as a case study to illustrate the evolution of its landscape, as well as the significance of landscape to various aspects of land planning and management. It is at this local government level that policy initiatives from regional and governmental bodies are actually implemented. The term ‘landscape’ is used to reflect the interrelationships between the physical, natural, and human characteristics of a location; this interaction produces the evolving land features and properties of an area. Increasingly, this recognition forms the basis of many local land management procedures and strategies. The book derives information and data from a wide range of sources. Throughout, each source is examined for its local availability, relevance, and veracity, with critical gaps and omissions noted. Through the various stages of the landscape’s development, the related management initiatives are discussed as they are reflected in the changing features of the local environment. The book demonstrates the application of landscape ecology principles and provides a case to illustrate emerging ideas in integrated landscape management.
