Origin
The Portland Collection Vol 2 attributes this setting to Theodore Duguay, although it originates from a traditional hormpipe. Apparently a popular tune in contradance circles.

La Remontee du Chantier
I know this tune as "La remontee du chantier". It's supposed to be a French Canadian tune

"~ originates from a traditional hormpipe." ~ ???

I suspect they meant 'hornpipe', eh?

Hmm. My typo seems permanently recorded.
