Pearl Harbor, . the Al- 'eska Highway and the Canol pro- ject are undertakings that are considered to have speeded the, development' of - northwestern Canada by one hundred ,rears. Norman Wells is on. the light hank of the MacKenzie River, 75 miles from the Arctic. Circle. Canol camp is on the opposite bank of the river five miles away. The presence !.of oil on .the lower MacKenzie had been rioted' i:r 1789 by the young explorer Of that name, The first drilling was Rot attempted until 19i9, and by 1925 all wells were cap- 'ped: ap-'ped. The Norman field was re- opened in 1932 because of the new radium mine at Great Bear Lake, andl gold development' in 1937 gave an additional • outlet for Norman oil. In 1939 a mod- ern refinery was installed. When Japan' entered the war it was decided to put •a pipe line over the MacKenzie -Yukon' Divide straight to Whitehorse on th} new Alaska, Highway.
