    Eastern Newt

    The eastern newt (Notophthalmus viridescens) is a colourful salamander native to eastern North America. It has a large geographic range that extends from eastern Canada south throughout most of the eastern United States, making it the second-most widespread salamander species in North America. Four subspecies are recognized across its range, two of which are found in Canada: the red-spotted newt (Notophthalmus viridescens viridescens; PEI, NS, NB, QC, ON) and the central newt (Notophthalmus viridescens louisianensis; ON).

    Eastern Red-Backed Salamander

    The Eastern red-backed salamander (Plethodon cinereus) is a small woodland salamander that is native to Eastern North America. In Canada, this species is found from Prince Edward Island to Northwestern Ontario. A similar species, the Western red-backed salamander, is found in southwestern British Columbia. Eastern red-backed salamanders are abundant in most forests within their range. However, they often go unseen because they spend most of their time underground, under the leaf litter or objects such as logs, stumps and rocks.

    Easton Treaty

    The Easton Treaty (or Treaty of Easton) is an agreement between British and Indigenous peoples, established at the forks of the Delaware River in Easton, Pennsylvania in 1758. The treaty was signed after a conference between British colonial officials and more than 500 chiefs, representing 15 Woodland Indigenous peoples in October 1758. Through the Easton Treaty and several others, the British successfully neutralized the French-Indigenous alliance in the Ohio Valley during the Seven Years’ War (1756–63) by guaranteeing the protection of Indigenous lands from Anglo-American colonists. (See also Treaties with Indigenous Peoples in Canada.)
