'Paul Commanda and the guides in these expeditions were the astronauts, cosmonauts of their day,' said McLeod Shabogesic
Two exhibits that capture some of the remarkable history of Lake Nipissing and its First Nations are coming to Sault Ste. Marie.
Their work enabled the naturalists to harvest northern birds, plants, and animals for the Carnegie Museum’s collections, which are still used by scientists today. “Paul Commanda and the guides in these expeditions were the astronauts, cosmonauts of their day,” said McLeod Shabogesic. Funding was provided by the federal government’s Museum Assistance Program and the Social Sciences and Humanities Research Council.
