Effort, catch, and biometric fish data are produced using the Summer Profundal Index Netting (SPIN) methodologies developed by the Ontario Ministry of Natural Resources. Monitoring is generally conducted generally on a five year cycle, with additional sampling as necessary. Data are from Kingsmere Lake, where the majority of the park’s recreational lake trout fishing occurs. This monitoring allows the park to collect data on the size, structure and physical condition of the lake trout population. Because lake trout are long-lived, top-level predators that are sensitive to changes in their environment, they are good indicators of the lake ecosystem overall health.

The largest population of the Prince Albert Regional Economic Development Alliance region is the age group between 5 and 9 years old, and the least populated age group is between 80 and 84 years old. 63.3% of the population are in the working age group between 15 to 64 years old, while 21.9% make up the younger population which will be a part of labour force in less than 2 decades.

This table contains 13 series, with data for years 1926 - 1960 (not all combinations necessarily have data for all years), and was last released on 2000-02-18. This table contains data described by the following dimensions (Not all combinations are available): Geography (13 items: Canada; Newfoundland and Labrador; Prince Edward Island; Nova Scotia ...).

Les données sur l’effort et les prises, ainsi que les données biométriques sur les poissons sont produites à l’aide de méthodes de pêche indicatrice estivale au filet en eau profonde (SPIN) mises au point par le ministère des Ressources naturelles de l’Ontario. La surveillance est généralement effectuée sur un cycle de cinq ans et des échantillonnages additionnels sont faits au besoin. Les données proviennent du lac Kingsmere, où a lieu la majeure partie de la pêche récréative au touladi dans le parc. Cette surveillance permet la collecte de données sur la taille, la structure et l’état physique de la population de touladis dans le parc. Comme le touladi est un poisson d’une grande longévité et un prédateur supérieur sensible aux changements survenant dans son environnement, il est un bon indicateur de la santé globale de l’écosystème du lac.

In this study, we intensively measured the longitudinal productivity and survival of 362 commercially managed honey bee colonies in Canada, over a two-year period. A full factorial experimental design was used, whereby two treatments were repeated across apiaries situated in three distinct geographic regions: Northern Alberta, Southern Alberta and Prince Edward Island, each having unique bee management strategies. In the protein supplemented treatment, colonies were continuously provided a commercial protein supplement containing 25% w/w pollen, in addition to any feed normally provided by beekeepers in that region. In the fumagillin treatment, colonies were treated with the label dose of Fumagilin-B® each year during the fall. Neither treatment provided consistent benefits across all sites and dates. Fumagillin was associated with a large increase in honey production only at the Northern Alberta site, while protein supplementation produced an early season increase in brood production only at the Southern Alberta site. The protein supplement provided no long-lasting benefit at any site and was also associated with an increased risk of death and decreased colony size later in the study. Differences in colony survival and productivity among regions, and among colonies within beekeeping operations, were far larger than the effects of either treatment, suggesting that returns from extra feed supplements and fumagillin were highly contextually dependent. We conclude that use of fumagillin is safe and sometimes beneficial, but that beekeepers should only consider excess protein supplementation when natural forage is limiting.
