The Wendat people who lived in the area of what is now called Lake Simcoe had a different name for it, which was Ouentironk (oo-ent’-er-onk), meaing “Beautiful Waters”.
The map is the same as our Lake Simcoe Watershed map, though the new Lake Simcoe moniker has been left off with only the Wendat name, and translation, remaining.
The map itself encompasses the northward flow from the Oak Ridges Moraine, seen in the higher elevation at the southern edge of the map, the lowlands of Holland Marsh wetland and Holland Rivers, flowing into Cooks Bay, and the high elevation and southward flow from the Oro Moraine, at the north-west quadrant of the map.
Man-made features are absent, so the map focuses simply on the relationship between the land and the water.

Friends. Online censorship by unaccountable tech companies, combined with an all-out assault on the Greenbelt by Ontario’s developers/government, make this a perilous time for the future of democracy and the power of the people in Ontario.
We need to build new ways of empowering those who believe in accountability, in a healthy environment, and in communities ready to thrive in the economy of tomorrow.
Join our supporter network and stay informed about efforts and actions to protect the Greenbelt, to build communities that support the health and well-being of people, and to lay the foundations of a resilient, climate friendly future.
