          CA ON00419 AGS · Collection · 1926-1931

          La collection comprend 6 albums contenant plus de 1 800 photographies en noir et blanc et plus de 20 panoramas, qui témoignent de la construction du barrage hydroélectrique à Alexander Falls sur la rivière Nipigon, au nord de ce qui est actuellement Thunder Bay. Le barrage d’Alexander Falls ainsi que la centrale de Cameron Falls, plus grande et située en amont de la rivière Nipigon, ont alimenté les activités industrielles en croissance dans les deux villes jumelles de Port Arthur et Fort William. La construction du barrage s’est échelonnée de 1926 à 1931. La première année, les travaux de construction de la ligne ferroviaire, des chantiers et du batardeau ont commencé. En 1927 et 1928, les travaux sur le canal de dérivation, l’enrochement pour le barrage principal et la construction du canal à vannes ont été entrepris. La construction de la centrale électrique a eu lieu en 1929-1930, y compris l’ouvrage en béton qui a été réalisé dans des conditions difficiles en hiver, alors que les coffrages en béton devaient être chauffés. En 1930, l’installation des générateurs a commencé; le premier a été mis en service en octobre de la même année. Le troisième et dernier générateur a été mis en service en mars 1931. Une fois terminée, la centrale d’Alexander Falls avait une capacité de 54 000 hp (soit environ 40 MW). Elle était raccordée aux villes de Port Arthur et Fort William par une ligne de transport d’électricité de 113 km. Les photographies dans les cinq premiers albums sont classées en ordre chronologique, ce qui montre clairement l’avancement séquentiel des travaux. Généralement, les photographies de ces albums sont annotées et elles portent un titre informatif et une date. Les photographies dans le sixième album semblent montrer les équipements utilisés, et il se peut qu’elles aient été prises afin de dresser un inventaire pour des raisons d’assurance.

          Frederick O. Robinson fonds
          Fonds · 1937 - 1963

          Frederick O. Robinson was born in Port Arthur, Ontario on Aug. 2, 1903. He attended public and high school in Port Arthur and then served his apprenticeship to the machinist trade in the C.N.R. shops. He worked for 25 years as a skilled machinist in the Port Arthur shops of the C.N.R. until his election to the Ontario legislature in 1943. He continued to work as a C.N.R. machinist between sessions of the legislature, and after his election to the office of mayor, he worked in the C.N.R. shops on weekends.

          He entered public life in January 1943 when he was elected to the Port Arthur Board of Education. In August of the same year he was elected to the Ontario legislature as C.C.F. member for Port Arthur. He was M.L.A. for Port Arthur until his defeat in 1951. In civic affairs, he remained on the Board of Education until 1946 when he was elected as alderman. In 1949, he became Mayor of Port Arthur; he remained in this post except for 1952 when he was defeated until 1955 when he resigned to become personnel manager for the Public Utilities Commission. He left active political life at this time. He resigned from the Public Utilities Commission in 1966 because of ill health. In July, 1969, he died.

          The Frederick O. Robinson fonds comprises 7 feet of correspondence, clippings, pamphlets, articles and other material and is contained in seventeen transfer cases. The folder titles in the main are those designated by Mr. Robinson. Some re-arrangement of the material has been effected in order to comply with the folder titles. Since the folders themselves were in no apparent order when .they were donated to the university, the following arrangement was thought to be most suitable for research purposes:
          I. Pre-1943 Period
          II. Political Affairs (relating to the C.C.F.)
          III. The Ontario Legislature and Provincial Affairs, 1943-51
          IV. Provincial and Local Affairs.
          V. Local and Municipal Affairs.
