 LAURENTIDES NATIONAL PARK 
 
 The annexed copies of the Act establishing the National Park, the 
 Order in Council enlarging the same, the Regulations for its manage- 
 ment, the tariff of charges, and the map of the territory, furnish 
 ample general information concerning this large area of forest lands 
 set apart for the preservation of the forest, fish and game by the 
 Local Legislature. 
 
 Doubtless, a large number of the sportsmen from abroad who an- 
 nually visit Quebec, as well as Canadians, will avail themselves of 
 the privilege of fishing and shooting in the Pf.rk, which the reader 
 will observe is permitted on the unleased portions, the basin of the 
 River Jaccjues Cartier being specially reserved for this purpose 
 together with the north eastern part of the Park. As regards river 
 fishing there is no finer brook-trout stream than the Jacques Cartier, 
 the fish running up to 6 lbs in weight on the main river and tributaries! 
 such as the Sautoriski. Kespecting lake fishing, we may say that 
 Lake Jacques Cartier is fully equal, if not superior, to any other sheet 
 of water in the Province, brook-tront considerably over 5 lbs in weight 
 taking the fiy readily. As regards deer hunting (caribou) the famous 
 hunting ground known as " Les Jardins " is altogether within the 
 Park boundari<'s and here the deer stalker can pursue his favorite 
 pastime with certainty of success. P'or those who rsrefcr smaller 
 game, the southern part of the Park offers exceptional facilities for 
 first-class ruffed grouse (partridge) shooting in the hard-wood proves 
 of Tewkesbury township. 
 
 It being out of the question to enter into details as regards the 
 many and various rivers, lakes, &c., and general sport obtainable in 
 the Park, the most salient features are merely touched upon. Litend- 
 ing tourists, sportsmen and fishermen can obtain particulars on 
 application to the Department of Crown Lands at any time

 APPENDIX A. 
 
 Copy of report of a Committee of the Honourable the 
 Executive Council, dated the sixth November, one 
 thousand eight hundred and ninety-four, approved 
 by the Lieutenant-Governor on the sixth November, 
 one thousand eight hundred and ninety-four. 
 
 No. 574. 
 
 On the setting apart of certain timber lands for establish- 
 ing a National Park. 
 
 The Honourable the Commissioner of Crown Lands, in a 
 report dated the fifth of November instant, (1894), sets 
 forth : 
 
 That it is desirable that a certain portion of timber lands 
 in this Province be set apart as a National Park, with a view 
 to preserve the forest, fish and game, to maintain an even 
 water supply and ejicourage the study and culture of forest 
 trees and for other reasons ; 
 
 That such forest reserves have been established and 
 found to be beneficial in the United States and in dillerent 
 parts of Canada ; 
 
 That a certain portion of the township of Grandison, in 
 this Province, has already been set apart as such forest re- 
 serve, by Order in Council of the nineteenth July last, under 
 the name of the " Trembling Mountain Park," [Pare de la 
 3Iontaiiiie Tremblaute) ; 
 
 That the territory hereafter described is well adapted for 
 the purpose, being largely unfit for settlement, not under

 All that part of the vacant and unlicensed Crown Lands of 
 the Province of Quebec, situate in the counties of Mont- 
 morency. Quebec and Charlevoix, bounded as follows: 
 towards the North, by the Southern line of timber berth 
 S-J, 144, lying between Cedar Lake and the Metabetchouan

 No 212. 
 
 On the advisability of annexing certain territory to the 
 Laurentides National Park. 
 
 The Honourable the Commissioner of Crov^'-n Lands, in 
 a report dated the fourth of June instant, (1895), sets forth : 
 
 That the territory, extending from the Seigniory of St. 
 Ignace to the rear lines of the Township of Tewkesbury 
 and tributary to the river Jac^ques Cartier, contains 
 several streams and lakes which it is highly desirable to 
 protect. That it is also expedient to ali'ord protection to 
 the game to be found therein ; 
 
 That a portion of said territory is held under license to 
 cut tim1 r, and it is advisable, in consequence, to control, to 
 a certain extent the tishing and hunting carried on therein, 
 which as obtains at present, is a menace to said timber 
 lands. 
 
 The Honourable the Commissioner therefore recommends 
 that the said territory, as above described, be annexed to, 
 and form part of the Laurentides National Park.
