The community of Aboriginal groups and fur trade society that had initially developed at Porcupine-Iroquois Falls (c. 1660-1905) was displaced early in the twentieth century by newcomers drawn to the opportunities offered by mining, agriculture, and pulp and paper production. The newcomers came from many different cultural backgrounds, which led to divisions in the towns and villages they created. By the mid-twentieth century, however, a community identity had been built on shared experience, hostility towards the "South" and certain ethnic groups, and an imagined sense of northern uniqueness. "Changing Places" rejects traditional sociological and anthropological models about community and identity in favor of a more nuanced interpretation that takes historical process into account. Drawing from archival, oral, and newspaper sources, Kerry Abel examines the process by which a relatively coherent community emerged in the sub-region of Northern Ontario bounded by Timmins, Iroquois Falls, and Matheson and provides the only comprehensive history of this area.
