Dr. Moira McPherson • Conferring of Honorary Degree Ron Maclean Also featuring a presentation of the Academic All-Canadian Athletic Awards • �Installation of Lakehead UniversiW's Seventh President & Vice-Chancellor DR. MOIRA McPHERSON Dr. Moira McPherson became Lakehead University's Interim President & ViceChancellor in January 2018. Prior to that, she served as the institution's Provost & Vice-President (Academic) since 2012, where she provided strategic leadership for institutional visioning for academic and community connections, international recruitment and partnerships, as well as program development, accreditations, and resource allocations. Dr. McPherson began her progressive career at Lakehead University in 1987 as an Assistant Professor in the Department of Physical Education and Athletics. After seven successful years as Director of the School of Kinesiology where she established a strong reputation as a dynamic applied scientist and coach facilitator, Dr. McPherson's effective collaborative leadership approach led her to being named Associate Vice-President (Academic), a position that saw her design and implement some pivotal new academic processes to achieve the University's academic goals. After stepping in to serve as Acting Vice-President (Academic) in 2010, she was appointed Deputy Provost in 2011, and subsequently appointed as Provost & VicePresident (Academic) in 2013. Dr. McPherson's understanding of, and commitment to, Lakehead University continues to be demonstrated through her capacity for strategic leadership, a purposeful dedication to students, and her influence on several high impact projects. These projects include the Lakehead University-Georgian College Partnership, a collaboration that is designed to meet the needs of students and employers in Simcoe County; The Gichi Kendaasiwin Centre, a capital project to support a vibrant Indigenous student, faculty and staff presence and foster greater connections with community; and Lakehead's Telepresence initiative, an immersive classroom experience that provides course opportunities to distant learners in rural and remote communities. Dr. McPherson led the development and implementation of Lakehead University's 2012-2017 Academic Plan, the University's transition to the Institutional Quality Assurance process, and to a Strategic Enrolment Management Framework. She has led the development of the University's Strategic Mandate Agreements, and established and continues to guide the implementation of the Integrated Planning and Budgeting Process. Dr. McPherson served two terms on the Ontario Universities Council on Quality Assurance, was a member of the Executive Committee for the Ontario Council of Academic Vice-Presidents, and is the Vice-Chair of the Board of Directors for the Northern Ontario School of Medicine. Dr. McPherson holds a PhD specializing in Applied Biomechanics from the University of Alberta, and has been regularly sought out for her scholarly and professional expertise in applied kinematic and biomechanical skill analyses by both national and international organizations. Honorary Degree The University confers "honorary" degrees which symbolize the highest honour that can be conferred upon an individual by the University. An honorary degree may be awarded in recognition of scholarly or creative achievements or distinguished public service to the country or region. They are awarded to individuals who have been designated by the University's Senate, its senior academic governing body, as deserving special honour. At Convocation, the degree is awarded honoris causa, or "for the sake of honour." A hood is also given to the recipient and it may be worn to any academic affair. Recipients of these degrees become honorary alumni of the University and they may affix, after their names, the abbreviation of the degree. Lakehead University is proud to honour the following exceptional individual: RON MACLEAN Doctor of Humane Letters Ron Maclean brings more than 30 years of award-winning experience to his role as host of Hockey Night in Canada, including Coach's Corner with Don Cherry, and Rogers Hometown Hockey. Ron began his broadcasting career in 1978 at CKRD Radio in Red Deer, Alberta, and in 1984 became host of the Calgary Flames television broadcasts on CFAC in Calgary. He joined CBC in 1986 as host of the Toronto Maple Leaf broadcasts on Hockey Night in Canada. In 1987, Ron became national host of Hockey Night in Canada, which included hosting the legendary Coach's Corner with Don Cherry. During his career with CBC, Ron also hosted 11 Olympic Games, the Commonwealth Games, IAAF World Championships, World Cup Hockey, the Calgary Stampede and Queen's Plate. In 2015, Ron and Don Cherry were inducted to Canada's Walk of Fame. Ron has been recognized with a Canadian Screen Award for Best Host in a Sports Program or Series, adding to his 10 Gemini Awards and George Gross Award, among others. He has published two books: "Hockey Towns: Untold Stories from the Heart of Canada" and Canadian bestseller, "Cornered", both co-authored by Kirstie Mclellan Day. Ron is a former Level 5 referee for the Canadian Amateur Hockey Association and lives with his wife, Cari, in Oakville, ON. �Saturday, September 22, 2018 ORDER OF PROCEEDINGS 0 Canada Ms. Timi Robert Honour Song Ms. Audrey DeRoy Invocation Sister Alice Greer Elder Gerry Martin Opening of Convocation Chancellor Lyn McLeod Introduction of Platform Party & Special Guests Dr. David Barnett, Interim Provost & Vice-President (Academic) Introduction of the Incoming President & Vice-Chancellor Mr. Sean Speer, Lakehead Alumnus and member of the Board of Governors Installation of the President & Vice-Chancellor Chancellor Lyn McLeod Mr. David Tamblyn, Chair, Lakehead University Board of Governors Investiture of the President & Vice-Chancellor Chancellor Lyn McLeod Mr. David Tamblyn, Chair, Lakehead University Board of Governors Dr. David Barnett, Interim Provost & Vice-President (Academic) President's Address Dr. Moira McPherson, President & Vice-Chancellor Introduction of Honorary Degree Recipient Mr. Tom Warden, Director, Athletics Conferring of Honorary Degree Chancellor Lyn McLeod Dr. Moira McPherson, President & Vice-Chancellor Address Mr. Ron Maclean John Zanatta Awards Presented by: Ms. Mirella Zanatta Presentation of the RBC Academic All-Canadians presented to Student Athletes Mr. Lou Pero, Manager of Student Athlete Development Presented by: Ms. Annie Beauchemin, Regional Vice-President, RBC Student Athlete Representative Ms. Rheanna Geisel Honour Song Chi Animikii Traditional Drum (Fort William First Nation) Drum Carrier: Dr. J Angus Chancellor Remarks & Closing of Ceremony Chancellor Lyn McLeod Recessional Mr. William Hollins *Following the Ceremony, everyone is invited to attend the Reception �Lakehead UNIVERSITY � Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

To keep up with campus events, read your weekly LUSU mass emails or check the events calendar at lusu.ca WINTER CARNIVAL LUSU TOWN HALLS January HAUNTED FORT NIGHT MOVIE NIGHTS October FOR STUDENTS. BY STUDENTS. Welcome! Whether you're a new or returning student, we are excited to fill you in on what your student union can do for you (hint: a lot). For many students, LUSU makes the difference between simply getting a degree and having a life-changing educational experience . LUSU is here to support and fight for students at Lakehead, while building community on campus. We run events, create student jobs, help students in academic disputes, provide essential services like the health plan and bus pass, operate student centres, and a lot more. We also work hard to protect students' rights and best interests within the university. We invite you to get involved in student life this year and make our campus a better, friendlier place. There are plenty of opportunities to do so, from attending events to working or volunteering with LUSU. Please visit our website, lusu.ca, to find out more about your student union, how to get involved and access services and supports. Sincerely, your student leaders Ian Kaufman Matt Quick President VP Advocacy Dan Bacsa VP Operations & Finance Ian McRae VP Orillia CRMPRIGN5 Past Successes 2013 Students preserve indigenous content at Lakehead Law School with a month-long sit-in. 2012 Lakehead backtracks on removing the student vote on tuition increases after pressure from LUSU. 2011 Deal to sell off campus green space to a golf course stopped by students . Current Campaigns Students have often led the way in pushing for social change . From stopping the Vietnam War to battling discrimination against marginalized groups, students have shown our power to change the world for the better. Today, we are called to similar moral confrontations with power. Universities are increasingly being run like big businesses, with the needs of learners and teachers sidelined. Rising tuition fees push poorer youth out of our education system . Meanwhile. our generation is facing runaway climate change , while politicians continue subsidizing fossi l fuel companies and the destruction of our planet. These challenges are big. But when students stand together, we get results. When students in Newfoundland & Labrador stood 100% united and got loud, they won cuts to tuition fees - now the lowest in the country - and got student loans turned into grants. Lakehead students organize through LUSU to create change on local and global issues . Don't just get educated - get involved! To join an existing campaign, or start a new one, email campaigns@lusu.ca or visit the LUSU office. �Uni11ersir, at•••n1nn111e1 lrtda,ar:taber a,11, 2014 111m See you · at t~ie Thu11derdo1ne t~ • I TICKETS: $5 stud .• ents/seniors mbe Cl£b HS weeiend!

Instead of thinking about money as just something to spend, think about making your money work for you. This is called "financial planning," and it starts with three steps: 1. Define your financial goals. 2. Make plans to reach your goals. 3. Take action until your goals become a reality. PROTECT YOUR PERSONAL INFORMATION Don't give someone else the opportunity to spend your money or use your credit. To the right are some tips that will safeguard your personal and financial information. FIND THE BEST DEAL FOR YOUR CHECKING ACCOUNT With a checking account, you have easy access to your money through writing checks, using a debit card, or getting cash from an ATMwhile having the security of keeping your money in a bank. To decide which bank or credit union is best for you, research institutions near you and compare what they offer. This will help you choose the right bank. You can visit the branch in person or visit their website: SAFEGUARD YOUR PERSONAL AND FINANCIAL INFORMATION ➔ Don't give anyone your Social Security, credit card, or bank account numbers unless you know why the individual or organization is requesting them. If you are unsure, ask the person to send you a request by mail instead of asking for it over the telephone. Also be sure to ignore and delete emails requesting personal information.

Shred anything with your name, address, credit card information, or bank account numbers before putting it in the trash or recycle bin. This includes unused credit card offers. AFEW THINGS TO REMEMBER ➔ Don't send your credit card number over the Internet unless you are sure the website is secure and your computer is protected by a firewall and anti-virus, anti-spyware, and other security software. Keep your security software updated. 1. ➔ Where is the bank or credit union located? Is there a branch or ATM on campus? 2. What is the minimum deposit to open an account? 3.

The application is accessible through mylnfo. Fall/Winter Bursary amounts typically range from $500 - $2000. Applicants with student loan debt are always given extra consideration. Students are notified of the results of the Fall/Winter Bursary in mid-December by email. Like the Fall/Winter Bursary, the Returning/Transfer/Mature Student Bursary is another enticing offer from Lakehead. The application, which opens March 1 and closes June 28, is accessible through mylnfo. This maximum $1000 bursary is available to all returning, college transfer, and mature undergraduate students not in a 2nd entry program (1-year Bed, 1-year Social Work, and Law, for example). Students are notified of the results of the Returning/Transfer/Mature Student Bursary in mid-July. WHAT IS ABURSARY? A bursary is an award that is based on financial need. To help you organize your time, fill in all your daily activities, using different colours for different categories of activity. Be honest - if you sleep in every day till 11, put that in! Once completed, you will be able to see where you can cut back to make room for important activities such as studying. Remember, to be successful academically, each hour spent in class requires at least two hours of reading and study time. Be sure your calendar allows you the hours you need to complete schoolwork. WHAT IS ASCHOLARSHIP? A scholarship is an award that is based on academic standing. Follow the example below to help you schedule your week to best use all the time available to you, and use the blank calendar on the following page to create your personalized schedule. For our OSAP-eligible students with identified permanent disabilities (and have a minimum 40% course load), we have the BSWD (Bursary for Students with Disabilities). For students who qualify a variety of goods and services are available, from computers and tutors. Awarded amounts can vary depending on what is required. BSWD applications are available through Student Accessibility Services. For our Aboriginal and Metis students, we have bursaries that are specifically for you! The Aboriginal Student Bursary and Metis Nation of Ontario Bursary applications will be available on the Student Awards & Financial Aid website October 1. The Aboriginal Student Bursary amount typically ranges from $500 - $2000, while the Metis Nation of Ontario Bursary is a minimum of $500 (depending on the number of applicants). Students are notified of the results in mid-December by email.

Yet, as we rejoice, one cannot help but be sobered and humbled by the recognition of what is possible when men of good mind and purpose set about in logical, planned and researched fashion to do something for themselves and their communities. The Board of Di rectors of 1965 set themselves a target of five years. Their initiative and vision cannot be criticized, but the significant P.R. COOK fact is that nothing would have been possible if it were not designed for the greatest common good. To me, therefore, our greatest single asset could be our acceptance by the greatest number in the many-faceted community we serve. To speak with a voice compounded of reasoned common sense and a sense of justice for the majority, accepted seriously by the news media and listened to with respect by the many must be our most jealously guarded possession. This past year, the Fort William-Port Arthur and District Labour Council and the Chamber initiated a joint liaison committee. We believe this to be a first in the field of labour-management relations and we are encouraged and pleased by the discussions to date and the accomplishment in municipal relations with our joint meetings with the local councils. I think, too, we can be proud of our relationship with the senior Chamber bodies. Our purposes were admirably met in our attendances at the Annual Meetings of both the Ontario and Canadian Chambers and with the Northwestern Associated Chambers of Commerce at the annual presentation to the Ontario Cabinet. The Lakehead prospers as Northwestern Ontario prospers, without the one the other cannot exist. Our continued attention and participation in the activities of the various Chambers and the parent association of the northwest is most justified and recommended as an increased endeavour. We continued to move ahead with vigour in all our activities and I would be wrong if I did not recognize the efforts and honest good work of each of our committee chairmen and executive officers. I am well aware that in more than one instance, the task assigned was anything but pleasant and I admire the patience and fortitude exhibited in each case. Such action makes the Chamber. I am satisfied that our committee reorganization was good. I am sure it has taught us some lessons and no doubt the next Executive will �ANNUAL AND GENERAL MEETINGS President's Report Continued • A powerful message on the respon­ sibility of the business community to the country was delivered by William M. Anderson, president of the Canadian Chamber of Commerce at the third annual meeting of the Lakehead Chamber of Commerce at the Lakehead University early in the year. The meeting featured the in­ duction of the new president, P. R. Cook. • Thought-provoking topics such as highways, mining and tourism were animated discussions at the "What's Your Beef" Night at the Spring in­ terim meeting at the Royal Edward Hotel. President Cook gave a brief synopsis of the work of this com­ mittee to date. find ways to improve again and to adjust for the demands of the next year. The cost-revenue squeeze continues to be our greatest problem and the one most demanding of early solution. The time has come when we must recognize that we cannot continue to provide the level of service we do; especially in the field of tourism, without a substantial increase in income and, yet, any decrease in service would reduce it below an acceptable level. Not only must the municipal structure take a greater part, but ways must be found to encourage greater participation among retailers and those closely connected to the tourist industry, the groups who are the weakest supporters of the Chamber and, at the same time, enjoy the greatest part of the budget. I close in expressing my sincere thanks to a competent staff, the Lakehead news media, and all those who have added something to the betterment of the Lakehead Chamber of Commerce. DR. W. G. TAMBLYN Chairman, 1st Vice-President • 2 J. Murray Fleming, P. Eng., chairman of the board of C. D. Howe Co. Ltd. and past president of the Chamber of Commerce, was honored at a testimonial dinner held in the Holiday Inn at the Fall interim meeting. �CIVIC AND COMMUNITY AFFAIRS • Received and studied in depth the Lakehead Local Government Review of Commissioner Eric Hardy in March. • Engaged Dr. Evelyn Eager, Lakehead University, to summarize recommendations of Hardy Report and committed this resume to 15,000 pamphlets for free distribution. • Met the initial deadline of the Department of Municipal Affairs for receipt of briefs commenting on the Hardy Report recommendations, which the committee found in close alliance with the Chamber of Commerce thinking. • Hosted two-day visit to the Lakehead of Members of the Provincial Legislature headed by the Hon. John P. Robarts. t S. L. WEARE Chairman • Applauded the announcement in November of Hon. Darcy McKeough, Minister of Municipal Affairs, that the Lakehead communities would become one by Jan. 1, 1970. CONSERVATION AND NATURAL RESOURCES • • • • Legislation has been introduced by the Ontario Department of Mines as a result of this Chamber's request to provide that a licensee is not limited as to the number of mining claims that may be staked out and applied for in a license year. • The Mines Department also has legislation before the house on another Chamber petition for the universal tag system under which claim tags may be used anywhere in the province without regard to mining division boundaries. • Availability of aerial photographs of potential mining property under investigation. • Supported Lakehead Region ConL. A. SILLMAN servation Authority to obtain perChairman manent manager locally. .

Enjoyed films and guest speakers throughout year along with field trip to local mining operation. 3 �TOURISM e • • • • • 4 JAMES H. DAWSON Chairman Project of provincial tourist recep­ tion centre at Pigeon River progress­ ing with conferences successful be­ tween federal and provincial gov­ ernments on site selection. Con­ struction likely in 1969. Tourist Captive Day registered great success with Chamber hosting visit­ ing couples from the United States, Canada and Overseas. Resultant publicity in visitors' hometowns was spectacular. Lakehead Mayors and Aldermen rallied at Civic Tourist Centres for one day in July greeting travelling public with free coffee, pop and doughnuts. Sub-committee on Lakehead Expressway has made relevant recom­ mendations for signs and reception centres. Vital co-operation re­ ceived from local office of Department of Highways.

P. Hogarth, won the Conservationist of the Year Award of the Northwestern Ontario Sportsmen's Show. • Re-instituted the Guest Ambassador program of organizing high school girls, in business for themselves, guiding visitors to tours of interest in industry, etc. • With the co-operation of City Council, improved the sign directions leading to the Port Arthur Pagoda which reflected an increase in registration. �TRANSPORTATION • Acclaimed the upgrading of Air Canada service with the introduction of the daily DC-9 jet flight, between Toronto and the Lakehead and return reducing the flight to 1 ½ hours. • In response to representations to Air Canada, Lakehead westbound flights were rescheduled to ensure more convenient connections with westbound flights from Winnipeg. • Approaches to the federal Department of Transport for improvement of parking facilities were successful with the expansion of space at Lakehead Airport. • Supported Transair Limited application for Winnipeg-Lakehead-ToronChairman to jet air service provided community did not lose Air Canada mainline carrier service.

CHEADLE • Reports of the scheduling of the completion of Lakehead Expressway beyond the original 1970 completion date, brought a strong protest to the Highways Department from the Chamber resulting in adherence to the original calendar. • Some steps were taken by Canadian National Railways to improve the level crossing in the Lakehead Cities at key traffic areas after Chamber of Commerce representation. The Chamber of Commerce, with other public spirited bodies, made strenuous efforts to induce the federal minister of Public Works to dredge the Mission River in the vicinity of the Valley Camp Coal Company site to facilitate trans-shipment of iron ore pellets. Subsequently the government reviewed its earlier decision and has now undertaken to dredge and deepen the river without user participation. Lack of solution to the vexing problem posed by the James Street Bridge across the Kam River continues to be a community anxiety. No appreciable progress has been made with the C.N.R. which maintains present facilities are adequate for its purposes. The Chamber will continue to act with municipal authorities to study this navigational hazard. John Andrews is delegate and your chairman an alternate delegate on an ad hoc committee of the Ontario Chamber of Commerce sup• porting the existing policy of the Ontario Chamber of a toll -free Welland Ship Canal and no further increases in the tolls on the St. Lawrence Canals. The committee is watching with concern the advent of containerization and unit train introduction and the attendant pressure this type of competition might impose upon development of the full potential of the St. Lawrence Seaway. These developments emphasize holding Seaway costs to realistic levels to ensure this mode of transportation will be competitive with others. 5 �PUBLIC RELATIONS MEMBERSHIP • • • HUGH J. CRAIG Chairman 6 The Chamber of Commerce adopted a new approach to membership in 1968 with the committee members on the alert for prospective members entering the community as well as protecting the interests of existing members. During the year 29 new members were welcomed into the Chamber, many of them newcomers to the community. The Lakehead Cl1amber of Commerce registered 722 member firms for a gross individual membership of 1,081. K. B. RIDLER Chairman • Achieved marked success with the press media of newspapers, radio and television in and understanding coverage of the events and proceedings of the Chamber. • Hosted the members of the Fourth Estate at a reception in March at the Royal Edward Hotel. • The committee gave serious consideration to the idea of engaging a public relations man on a part-time basis to promote more adequately Chamber functions and activities. �EDUCATION AND YOUTH • The graduating classes in Grade XII and XIII of Lakehead High Schools received from the Chamber of Commerce a copy of the Chamber pamphlet, Economic Facts and You. • After receiving the booklets, committee members spoke to all high school classes on the importance of the free enterprise system. • The Northwestern Ontario Regional Science Fair, an annual feature of the Lakehead, was again supported by the Chamber of Commerce with a cash prize won by one of the contestants, Keith Laderoute. • To impress upon the commercial and industrial concerns of the comARTHUR J. BLACK munity, the Chamber urged the Chairman provision of summer jobs for high school, college and university students. • • • Two courses in Human Relations were sponsored by the Chamber of Commerce at Lakehead University in the Fall in conjunction with the Ontario Department of Education. Course lecturers were Fred Soughton and Donald MacCormac. Earlier in the year two other courses, Business Law with D. S. Cheadle heading it, and Management Accounting with Stan Wylynko and Gary E. Garner as leaders, were well attended. • The problems of the youth in the community were explained to the Committee by representatives of Youth Incorporated, dedicated to reducing the incidence of juvenile delinquency. • The Story of Creative Capital, a 16mm sound film with animated colour relating where capital comes from and what it does, was shown to several economic classes in high schools. • The Committee continued to work in close liaison with education authorities on the university, college and high school levels. Winner of the Lakehead Chamber Scholarship award at the Lakehead University was Rhoderick T. E. Howitt. Guidance counsellors in high schools at the Lakehead and district were given the opportunity to gain their specialists certificate when the Chamber arranged for them to spend two weeks in businesses and industries in July. The project was highly successful. 7 �RESOLUTIONS • • Basically the actions of the Chamber of Commerce by resolution are directed primarily to governments on the local, provincial and federal level. Your Chamber, through affiliation with the Northwestern Ontario Associated Chambers of Commerce, the Ontario Chamber of Comm-erce and the Canadian Chamber of Commerce, makes these approaches. Four motions received the unanimous approval of the Northwest Chambers at Dryden: 1) DR. C. M. JOHNSTON Chairman 8 Universal metal tags be implemented so claim stakers may buy tags at nearest district mining recording office for use anywhere in Ontario. 2) Claims stakers be authorized to stake any number of claims provided no more than 90 claims are registered on a license at any one time. 3) Properly compensate businessmen for enormous work incurred for collecting taxes and form filling. 4) Repeal Succession duties in Ontario. • The Ontario Chamber of Commerce at Sarnia annual meeting sanctioned two Lakehead resolutions: 1) Will ask Ontario to initiate far greater mining and geological research to stimulate mining activity leading to industrial promotion. 2) Request province to make it mandatory for all communities to adopt daylight saving time with commencement and termination dates occurring at same time. • Also at Sarnia, John Andrews, was delegated as Lakehead representative on ad hoc committee to maintain present O.C.C. policy of Welland Ship Canal toll free and no increases of tolls on St. Lawrence Canals. • Lakehead withdrew its recommended policy statement on Logging Tax amendment because of Ontario Chamber's overall proposals regarding the Report of the Ontario Committee on Taxation. • Eight delegates from the Lakehead Chamber of Commerce attended the Calgary annual meeting of the Canadian Chamber of Commerce. Despite a valiant attempt on the part of H. A. L. Tibbetts of Fort Frances, the meeting would not accept our recommendations on the control of foreign-based operators of chartered aircraft. • Although unsuccessful in electing a director to the Canadian Chamber of Commerce, the Lakehead is represented on the Ontario Chamber of Commerce by three members as directors: E. E. Clow, C. E. Mapledoram and Brien O'Brien. • �MERCHANTS CO-ORDINATING • Night shopping and Christmas store hours were principal topics of time occupation of committee members representative of retail merchants of both cities. • After being informed by the Port Arthur City Council Legislation Committee early in February that it was considering amending the store hours bylaw to include one night shopping, merchants of both cities, in a mailed ballot, voted 76 per cent in maintaining existing store hours. A ballot return of 77 per cent was recorded. • The City Legislation Committee communicated again with the reROBERT HAMILTON tailers May 13 announcing that the Chairman stores bylaw would be amended authorizing Thursday evening openings. The Merchants Co-ordinating Committee countered with the suggestion that this revision be held off until adequate parking was provided in all market areas. LIAISON • • • • • The Chamber of Commerce recommended that if store hours were to be altered that they should be done so in co-ordination with the City of Fort William . Both cities subsequently amended the bylaws to include night shopping Thursdays until 9 p.m. DR. H. K. N·ANCEKIVELL Chairman A unique departure in Chamber action was the invitation to the Fort William-Port Arthur and District Labour Council to form a common bond of discussion on projects for the benefit of the community at large. Labour acceptance to the idea saw the committee co-operating on overtures to both City Councils to deliberate on how labour and management could assist the municipal bodies. A successful luncheon involving mayors and aldermen was held at the Lakehead Labour Centre on the mutual assistance offer. · A sincere effort will be made in 1969 to continue the theme of this committee and possibly expand its terms of reference. • • Furthering its efforts to understand better labour relations problems, the Lakehead Chamber of Commerce was successful in having as its guest speaker at the fourth annual meeting Mr. William Dodge, secretary-treasurer of the Canadian Labour Congress. 9 �THE LAKEHEAD CHAMBER OF COMMERCE ORGANIZATION STRUCTURE 1969 MEMBERSHIP I I ASSOCIATES: DIRECTORS OF ONTARIO CHAMBER OF COMMERCE BOARD OF DIRECTORS CHAMBER OF COMMERCE WEEK APRIL 20-26 A.

I do feel that we have accomplished a great deal. The new dues structure certainly allowed us to maintain stability and reflected a surplus. If we are to continue to show progress other changes will be necessary. Because of the ever increasing demands for providing accurate, informative and factual information, administrative and operating costs continue to soar. It is quite obvious that we must solicit increased financial support from the membership and from the cities. I can assure you that all expenses are carefully considered and that all concerned continue to work diligently on your behalf. My thanks and appreciation to the permanent staff under Harvey Johnson and Bob Middleton and also to the Contact Club members who through their initiative assisted our current year's finances greatly. May next year allow us to continue fulfilling our obligations. 20th January, 1969. To the President and Members, Lakehead Chamber of Commerce of the Cities of Port Arthur and Fort William, Port Arthur and Fort William, Ontario. We have examined the balance sheet of the Lakehead Chamber of Commerce of the Cities of Port Arthur and Fort William as at 31st December, 1968 and the statements of accumulated surplus, revenue and expenditure and source and application of funds for the year then ended. Our examination included a general review of the accounting procedures and such tesets of accounting records and other supporting evidence as we considered necessary in the circumstances. In our opinion these financial statements present fairly the financial position of the Chamber as at 31st December, 1968 and the results of its operations and the source and application of its funds for the year then ended, in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles applied on a basis consistent with that of the preceding year.

LIMITED N. M. PATERSON & SONS LIMITED FEDERAL GRAIN LIMITED JAMES RICHARDSON & SONS LTD. This Port, with 25 Terminal Grain Elevators having a storage capacity of 106,000,000 bushels, is recognized as one of the world's greatest concentrations of bulk grain storage. The potential receiving and shipping capacity of its Terminals has never been taxed to the limit. The Harbour plays a most strategic and important role in forwarding Western Canada grain to the markets of the world. DD MANITOBA POOL ELEVATORS SASKATCHEWAN WHEAT POOL McCABE GRAIN COMPANY LIMITED SEARLE GRAIN COMPANY LIMITED NATIONAL GRAIN COMPANY LIMITED UNITED GRAIN GROWERS LIMITED PARISH & HEIMBECKER LIMITED WESTLAND ELEVATOR LTD. ! I PUBLISHED LAKEHEAD BY THE HARBOUR COMMISSION MARCH 1966 �SIX STEPS OF GRAIN SAMPLING LAKEHEAD HARBOUR TERMINAL GRAIN ELEVATORS and the size and spacing of the buckets. The normal eleva• tor receiving and shipping legs in our Terminals are equipped with an 84 inch head pulley and operate at a belt spread of 688 feet per minute. Our Terminal Elevators are world renowned for their grain storage capacity, rating among the greatest for world ports. Only limited information is now available, however, as to the combined potential of the receiving, cleaning, drying and shipping capacities of the equipment installed in the 25 Terminal Elevator plants. These basic operations are primarily responsible for the part our Harbour plays in moving Canada's exportable grain to world markets. Conveyor belts in general operate at a speed of 850 feet per minute with capacities depending on the width of belting. Each carlot of grain is discharged into and accumulated in the garner bin located on the garner floor directly below the top floor of the workhouse. It is then dropped by gravity into a hopper scale on the scale floor immediately below where it is weighed under government supervision. In the year 1964 our Terminal grain Elevators moved 445,319,081 bushels of Western Canada grain and were responsible for 68.4 % of the total tonnage handled by the Lakehead Harbour (12.8 million tons out of a total of 18. 7 million tons). Forecast figures for the 1965 Western Canada grain crop indicate that in excess of seven hundred million bushels of wheat will be harvested, near an all-time record. Canada's export commitments already assure a maximum movement through Ihe Lakehead Harbour during the 1965-66 crop year. From this point on, the grain may be dropped by gravity directly into a small workhouse bin to enable its further cleaning, processing or seperation. It may also proceed directly to the large storage annex bins via a belt conveyor located on the bin floor. Likewise, the procedure in shipping grain out from the Elevator via vessel or rail car is more direct than the receiving process. Grain in storage is drawn from the storage bins and carried on a basement conveyor belt back into the workhouse section. Here it is elevated to the top floor on a shipping elevator leg. It passes through the shipping garner and scale units and finally reaches the raII car via a special car loading spout, or it discharges into a small upper shipping bin and from here it reaches the waiting vessel via a boat loading spout operated from the dock level. During the past two years the Harbour Commission has cooperated closely with the Canadian Wheat Board and the Board of Grain Commissioners in providing harbour tours for Trade Commissions from numerous countries overseas. Thousands of tourists from Canada and the U.S.A. have also visited our harbour. Many ques.tions have been asked regarding the Terminal grain handling facil ities and the Lakehead Harbour Commission feels that a brochure in this regard would be most informative. IIJI l Early in 1965 the management of all Grain Companies having Terminals at the Lakehead were unanimous in their approval that such a brochure would be beneficial. Complete information was provided by the elevator operators regarding their respective plants based on questionnaires distributed to all Elevators. These were later reviewed by a personal visit of representatives of the Harbour Commission to all Terminals. · ~ Grain bein . ....c! the Su e ~ mspectec1 Boarc1 Po?~o'! staff of b~ one_ of ram Com . ~nad,an m,ss,oners. . Board of Grain Commissioners Main inspection roomd Lakehea. Pertinent facts covering the combined potential of all Terminals for receiving, cleaning, drying and shipping to vessels and to railway boxcars for each Terminal Elevator are included in this brochure as an appendix listed as TABLE No. 1. The following totals cover the combined potential of all Terminal Elevators: Grain in Canada is handled in bulk. The normal procedure is to preserve the identity of every car of grain only until its grade and weight has been established under government supervision at the Lakehead. Subsequent to this procedure the general practice, for convenient handling purposes, is to bulk together carlots of grain of the same type and grade. Storage R oom of sa mp/es taken b -·· Commission- 'Y Board of G~a. 2 (1) There are 25 Terminal Elevators located on the Lakehead Harbour, 14 located on the open roadstead and 11 on the River systems. (2) The combined storage capacities for all 25 plants are as follows: Workhouse Capacity-8,621 ,900 bushels- 8.12% Storage Capacity- 97,543,000 bushels-91.88% Cars are hauled into the track shed section by means of a motor driven car puller cable and spotted directly over a receiving pit. The grain is then unloaded using hand operated shovel equipment or the more modern automatic boxcar unloader. The complete contents of each car is dumped into a track receiving hopper. The grain then passes along a conveyor belt to an elevator leg which, in order to take advantage of the gravity flowing quality of grain in bulk, lifts the grain to the top floor of the elevator workhouse. This elevator leg is equipped with a vertical rubber belt carrying small steel buckets. These legs vary in carrying capacity depending on the width of belt ,J View of moisture tester-Board of Grain Commissioners Lakehead In general the typical modern grain Elevator at the Lakehead Harbour follows the design shown on sketch No. 1. Sections through the working house and storage units are included to indicate the various floors and the location of equipment thereon required to perform th"' normal primary functions of grain handling, including the unloading from cars, cleaning, elevating, weighing, and conveying e;rain to the storage bins. The equipment required to ship grain bY. both rail car and lake vessel is also shown on this sketch. '" Total Capacity-106,164,900 bushels-100.00% NOTE: TABLE No. 2 gives combined storage figures for elevators 3 �operated by the various Grain Companies at the Lakehead. The effective working capacity of the Terminal Elevators is said to be approximately 95 million bushels. (10) Grain Drying Equipment Some 22 of the Lakehead Harbour's 25 Terminals are equipped with grain drying equipment. There are 30 drier units with a combined drying capacity of 22,700 bushels per hour. Units vary from 300 to 1000 bushels per hour capacity with an average of 748 bushels per hour. (3) Twelve plants are switched by both C.P.R. and C.N.R. Nine plants are switched by C.P.R. only. Five plants are switched by C.N.R. only. Grai.n drying is accomplished by passing dry heated air through the grain. Drier units are provided with intermittent discharge mechanisms and may be arranged for both continuous flow or batch drying. (4) Railway trackage on elevator sites will accommodate 1675 loaded grain cars. (5) Railway trackage is also available at the sites for 1633 cars from which grain has been unloaded. Driers are rated on their ability to reduce the moisture content of grain. For instance a 1000 bushel unit would be required to reduce the moisture in the grain by 5 % when operating at 180 "F and with humidity not over 80% at a rate of 1000 bushels per hour without damage to the quality of the grain. (6) Unloading Equipment NATIONAL GRAIN COMPANY LIMITED Automatic boxcar dumpers -21 units are located at 8 plants. Hand operated shovel pits -179 units located at all 25 plants. Combined unloading capacity-180 cars per hour or approximately 360,000 bushels per hour. The purpose of reducing the moisture content in grain is to enable the elevator operator to store it in a bin without the hazard of deterioration by heat· ing, etc. Grain with a moisture content in accordance with the percentage limitations established by the Canada Grain Act is considered to be in warehousing condition and may be stored indefinitely without resulting damage. (7) Elevator legs UNITED GRAIN GROWERS LIMITED (THUNDER BAY) No. of Receiving Legs- 73 units for transferring grain from boxcar to Elevators. No. of Shipping Legs -105 units for loading out grain to cars and vessels. No. of Special Legs -197 units for cleaning and drying grain and for handling elevator screenings.

The maximum -754 units Approximate combined cleaning capacity per hour 287,000 bushels. NOTE: See Table No. 3 for listing of types of cleaning equipment installed in local Terminals to remove foreign material including other cereal grains generally referred to by elevator operators as dockage and separate cars of mixed grain into their respective groups. SEARLE GRAIN COMPANY, LIMITED ELEVATOR "A" -81.44 miles for all 25 plants. 5 �SUPERIOR ELEVATOR COMPANY LIMITED PARRISH & HEIMBECKER potential for this operation, based on records already established where automatic car dumpers and where manual unloading shovel equipment are in use, would indicate that in some instances, under the most favourable overall operating conditions, the unloading figures for cars unloaded in an 8 hour day were 50 % greater than the average given. December 7, 1961, the total grain loaded on vessels eastbound from the Lakehead was 20,608,000 bushels or an average of 3,443,666 bushels per day. based on a 5 day work week. It will be apparent therefore that based on the survey just completed end taking into consideration the added handling facilities made available since 1961 our Lakehead Harbour grain Terminals have not as yet been taxed to their full potential. Dealing with the capacity for shipping grain to lake freighters we would point out that during the week of ,11--1 I - , ~ I. LAKE SHIPPERS' CLEARANCE ASSOCIATION The contribution made by this o~ganization in expediting the movement of grain is outstanding. Organized in 1909 by the grain shippers themselves it operates as a clearing house for grain documents, combining same from various shippers, whereby the maximum dispatch is rendered to vessels taking on cargo. In the same manner it augments movement by rail by arranging the most advantageous distribution of cars to terminals for loading with a minimum of switching operations. RICHARDSON TERMINALS LIMITED year requiring approximately 254,000 boxcars annually during the five year period 1957-8 to 1961-2 according to Board of Grain Commissioners for Canada statistics. The impact of the 1965 Russian grain purchase in amount some 215 million bushels in itself will require approximately 114,000 boxcars and 500 ocean going shiploads according to transportation authorities. The delivery period for the Russian order terminates in July 1966 and the eastbound rail movement to the Lakehead for transshipping will average approximately 350 cars per day, Sundays included, to meet this schedule. Superimposed on the normal movement under the current boom economy in Canada the task confronting our railroads today will require a major effort on their part. Warehouse receipts issued by any Elevators are tenderable in satisfaction of any purchase of grain made in the grain markets. Without a clearing house for handling such documents a vessel would be required to take on grain at every Elevator against which the shipper held a warehouse receipt causing serious loss of time due to vessel movement in the Harbour. By combining warehouse receipts and permitting maximum loading at any one Elevator, the movement of grain is expedited and the cost of marketing same Is kept at a minimum. However the Canadian Pacific Railway and the Canadian National Railway have demonstrated that they can jointly delivered to their Lakehead marshalling yards over 1000 cars daily with existing rolling stock. Marshalling yard space at the Lakehead includes 126.1 miles of C.P.R. trackage and 93.08 miles operated by the C.N.R. It is a matter of record that during the crop year 1963-4, August 1st, 1963 to July 31st, 1964, grain deliveries to Lakehead Terminals by the C.P.R. and C.N.R. were as follows: The Association, handling as it does all outward shipments, and having on call at the Terminal Elevators large quantities of grain at all times, is in a position to place boats at Elevators that are full and would otherwise have to close down for want of storage space. By this action the Association keeps all Elevtors unloading cars to the maximum degree possible and the overall unloading capacity of the Port is maintained at its maximum at all times. FEDERAL G NORTHWEST::NIN LIMITED TERMINAL Canadian Pacific Railway 116,511 cars Canadian National Railway 111,030 cars TOTAL The operators of the Lake Shippers' Clearance Association have proven that it is rendering to the grain trade, the Terminals and the transportation companies a most valuable and indispensable service. It is admitted by all interests that the business of shipping and transporting grain could not be economically or successfully carried on without its activities. The maximum calendar monthly delivery in November 1963 was as follows: THE GRAIN MOVEMENT The Elevators operating on a 22 working day month basis unloaded the cars delivered in November at a rate of approximately 1400 cars per working day. Canadian Pacific Railway Canadian National Railway T O T A L for month Average per day The chain of transportation facilities required to move our Western Canada grain from the farm to the several export outlets viz: westward to the Pacific Coast, north to Hudson Bay, east to the Lakehead and on to the AtfanHc Ocean, includes some very important links. Our two great transcontinental railways, a number of Canadian shipping companies operating vessels on the St. Lawrence Seaway, together with ships from overseas under foreign registry, cooperate to provide this service. It will be of interest to note that with existing diesel engine power solid trains of 125 loaded grain cars are moved regularly to the Lakehead by both railroads. These trains are rough~ ·one and one haH miles long.

This quantity could be loaded out by its 25 Elevators. This figure is contingent on proper grades being available to meet export commitments, on vessel space being available here at all Elevators and depends on the ability of elevator facilities at Eastern Canada Terminals to unload the lake freighters and reload the grain to ocean bottoms with equal dispatch. Any delays at the St. Lawrence River Terminals or at lower Lake Ports due to lack of ocean cargo space would curtail the movement and our Lakehead output would Qf necessity slow down with reducing Port handling.

Additional screening operations take place which remove other cereal grains and a further air suction is applied to remove impurities not caught in the initial air suction. The cleaned grain discharges to conveyors thence to an elevator leg. This equipment has been in use for many years.

FORECAST OF COMBINED POTENTIAL OF BASIC OPERATIONS AT OUR 25 TERMINAL ELEVATORS SASKATCHEWAN WHEAT POOL No. 6 navigation based on existing survey figures could proceed at a rate of 100 cars per hour or 800 cars per 8 hour day, approximately 190,000 bushels per hour, if market conditions required same and railway equipment was available. Under the most favourable operating conditions with 84 car loading spouts some elevator authorities point out that the above figures can be greatly increased . Under entirely favourable operating conditions including weather, adequate rail movement to the Lakehead, availability of vessel space, etc., a fair estimate of what might be handled in a normal work day during the fall rush by our 25 Terminals would be as follows: (1) Railroad Trackage available at our Terminals and Car SASKATCHEWAN WHEAT POOL No. 7 Unloading Potential Loaded cars spotted at Elevators (100% track full)-1675 cars all of which could be unloaded in a normal day's operation. Based on 2,000 bushels per car, 3,350,000 bushels per 8 hour day could readily be taken into the Terminals. On a conservative basic figuring three cars per hour for automatic car dumpers and one car per hour for hand operated shovel equipment the output would be 200 cars per hour for the 25 Terminals or approximately 1600 cars per 8 hour day. With five automatic car dumpers one of our largest Terminals has unloaded 283 cars in ten hours or 5.6 cars per hour per dumper. (5) Potential for Drying Grain Adverse weather conditions in Western Canada such as prevailed during the fall of 1965 stress the importance of having adequate facilities for drying grain. Our survey indicates that the Lakehead has available some 30 standard grain drier units with a combined capacity of 22,700 bushels per hour. This indicates a potential for drier use of ten cars per hour or 240 cars per 24 hour day, should wet and damp grain require treatment to reduce the moisture content of same and insure it was in warehousing condition . (2) Cleaning Potential SASKATCHEWAN WHEAT POOL No. 8 SASKATCHEWAN WHEAT POOL NO. 12 Drier units in general are rated at from 500 to 1000 bushels per hour, based on an average of 5 % moisture extraction. Based on normal cleaning capacity of 287,000 bushels per hour the 3,350,000 bushels unloading from cars as above could be cleaned in 11 hours approximately. Cleaning operations, however, in grain Elevators can proceed on a 16 or 24 hour basis depending on the export requirements and the convenient availability of vessel space for shipment to Eastern Canada. On a 24 hour basis our Terminals' cleaning potential therefore is upwards of 6 million bushels with average grades and dockage content according to the survey data. (6) Dust Collecting Systems To eliminate the hazard of dust explosions and provide the best possible atmospheric working conditions for elevator employees, our Lakehead Elevators are equipped with the most modern systems of dust control. The movement of grain through the Elevator creates objectionable dust and to collect same whereever possible air suction is provided to collect dust particles and discharge same to dust collectors us ually located on the exterior walls of the Elevator. The dust collectors separate out and retain the heavy particles of dust and the exhaust air discharges to atmosphere. (3) Shipping to Vessels Potential SASKATCHEWAN WHEAT POOL No. 5 With vessel loading restricted to the normal eight 'hour day for the period April 15 to December 15, and not considering vessel movement delays, the combined shipping potential to vessels for the 25 Terminals based on 50% only of maximum capacity would be approximately 5.5 million bushels per eight hour day. This is about twice the 3,443,666 bushels per day record established in 1961. It was significant to note in passing that one single Elevator in one of our largest Elevator groups loaded onto a Great Lakes Bulk Carrier vessel 1,000,000 bushels in ten hours. It also demonstrated its ability to load 180, 000 bushels to the same Great Lakes Bulk Carrier in a single hour and 550,000 bushels over a 4½ hour period averaging 122,000 bushels per hour on this occasion. Other Terminals have demonstrated their ability to load vessels at a comparable rate. To illustrate the modern dust control system installed in a typical Lakehead Terminal Grain Elevator, your attention is drawn to sketch No. 2. This sketch clearly indicates the many locations of dust collecting equipment and the number of exhaust fans which provide the required air suction to operate the control system. We would strongly recommend for those interested in the crop movement in Canada that they obtain a copy of the Canadian Wheat Board Bulletin No. 2 issued in (4) Shipping to Cars Potential Rail movement of grain subsequent to close of SASKATCHEWAN WHEAT POOL No. 4A & B 15 �September, 1963, dealing with the storage, transportation and grading of grain in Canada. This informative bulletin gives capacity statistics for Elevators in the interior and at all ports in Canada and explains in detail the control exercised by the Board of Grain Commissioners in the operation of our Elevators under the Canada Grain Act. It describes also the grain movement from the farm to the ultimate consumer. It outlines the facilities provided to handle grain shipments in the country, at our Lake Ports and on the seacoast. It explains the official inspection system used to establish the grade of grain under consideration so as to maintain the high standard enjoyed by Canadian grain in the markets of the world. The duties of the Canadian Wheat Board set up by the Canadian Government are explained. (This Board controls the sale of all grains entering commercial facilities. It regulates the delivery of all prairie grown wheat, oats and barley from the farm to country Elevators using the quota systems to obtain the orderly marketing of the exportable crop.) AUTOMATIC GRAIN SAMPLERS MANITOBA POOL ELEVATORS No. 2 SASKATCHEWAN WHEAT POOL No. 10 all modern grain Terminals in Canada and the U.S.A. Small metal buckets on moving chains pick up samples from the stream of grain on the belt conveyor. Every receiving conveyor belt is equipped with this device. The identity of every car of grain unloaded at ou· terminals is usually preserved until the weight and gradt of same has been established by representatives of the Board of Grain Commissioners for Canada. When this information has been obtained the Elevator operator is permitted to route the grain to a storage bin containing grain of the equivalent type and grade. Shipments out of Terminal Elevators are sampled continuously by similar automatic samplers or by an official of the Board of Grain Commissioners of Canada to insure that the shipment meets the grade specifications in every respect. To insure an official representative sample of the grain being obtained automatic sampling machines are in use in SUMMARY bour, more grain from Western Canada of the type required to meet the demand of world markets must be delivered to our Terminals. By maintaining a constant flow of cars to our Terminal Elevators their combined unloading capacity will be greatly increased. The survey, in addition to tabulating the facilities available at all Lakehead Elevators for receiving, cleaning, drying, and shipping grain in transit to Ports •in Eastern Canada and for direct shipping overseas, clearly indicates that the maximum potential for these operations, based on records already established, has never been fully realized. It is equally important that adequate vessel space be made available to enable shipping operations to proceed at a speed in keeping with car deliveries over rail transportation. It would seem apparent therefore that to insure an increased movement of grain through the Lakehead Har- SCHEDULE OF CLEANING EQUIPMENT INSTALLED IN LAKEHEAD ELEVATORS ALBERTA POOL TERMINAL No. 9 (OPERATED BY MANITOBA POOL ELEVATORS) MANITOBA PO 1965 Survey Data (6) Eureka Receiving Separators-S.
