Hey ArcTrain lovers,<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We started with us meeting at UQAM in Montreal at around 8.00\nam, packed the vans and left for the upcoming adventure. The first leg of the\njourney was from Montreal to Tadoussac following the St. Lawrence River. This\nregion hosts more than half of the population of the province which was in the\npast largely inhabited by the first people who settled into the region after\nthe last glaciation some 11,000 years ago.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Our first stop was at Laval University in Quebec City, where\nafter lunch we attended a meeting on the relationship between researchers and\nindigenous communities. It was led by Aude Therrien, who is affiliated with the\nInstitut Nordique du Quebec. There we learned many valuable principles to keep\nin mind when conducting research that could impact those communities,\nprinciples such as;<\/p>\n\n\n\n

-Acknowledging the knowledge of the first nations, and the\nfact that they occupied the land first.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

-Sharing information with the communities during the research\nand its results.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

-Being flexible to the local conditions, for example during hunting\nseasons people might be hard to reach.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

-It\u2019s important to create relationships built on trust and\nrespect<\/p>\n\n\n\n

After we were back on our way but not for long! Some stopped\nat the beautiful Montmorency waterfall to see its majesty and take a few\npictures.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

On the road towards Tadoussac, we crossed the Charlevoix\nregion which is known for two geological features: a meteor impact crater and a\nhigh seismic activity. This impact crater was formed by a 2km wide meteor\naround 400-450 million years ago. The Charlevoix region is the most active\nseismic zone in eastern Canada due to it being located on an ancient fault zone\nthat has been weakened by the meteor impact, and is now being activated by\nisostatic rebound. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

After that we continued our journey towards Tadoussac, but we couldn\u2019t resist ice cream at Baie St Paul. At Baie St Catherine we took a ferry and finally we arrived at Tadoussac after sunset…<\/p>\n\n\n\n
