In the spring of 2005, I graduated from the University of British Columbia with a degree in International Relations and a general focus in the area of environmental politics. Between 2005 and 2007 I completed an M.Phil in IR at Wadham College, Oxford. I worked for five years for the Canadian federal government, including completing the Accelerated Economist Training Program, and then completed a PhD in Political Science at the University of Toronto in 2023.

  1. Hello! My father has been the captain of this boat for years when she was on the Onatchiway Lake, in the northern part of the Province of Québec. The MrKane was affected to tow logs on the Onatchiway Lake. She sank in the 60’s and was taken on the surface a little later. After a stop of one year for renovation, she has been re-affected to her former job before she was transported on the Saguenay River , and finally on the Ste-Laurence River. There is a long and interesting story about this boat. We have a lot of pictures of all these events.

  2. Hello – I am so happy to have found your post about the M.R. Kane. Can you please contact me? We are looking into the history of the boat on Lake Onatchiway.

    Thank you!
