    CENTRE FOR NEWFOUNDLAND STUDIES TOTAL OF 10 PAGES ONLY MAY BE XEROXED (Without Author' s Permission) p CLASS ACTS: CULINARY TOURISM IN NEWFOUNDLAND AND LABRADOR by Holly Jeannine Everett A thesis submitted to the School of Graduate Studies in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Department of Folklore Memorial University of Newfoundland May 2005 St. John's Newfoundland ii Class Acts: Culinary Tourism in Newfoundland and Labrador Abstract This thesis, building on the conceptual framework outlined by folklorist Lucy Long, examines culinary tourism in the province of Newfoundland and Labrador, Canada. The data upon which the analysis rests was collected through participant observation as well as qualitative interviews and surveys. The first chapter consists of a brief overview of traditional foodways in Newfoundland and Labrador, as well as a summary of the current state of the tourism industry. As well, the methodology which underpins the study is presented. Chapter two examines the historical origins of culinary tourism and the development of the idea in the Canadian context. The chapter ends with a description of Newfoundland and Labrador's current culinary marketing campaign, "A Taste of Newfoundland and Labrador." With particular attention to folklore scholarship, the course of academic attention to foodways and tourism, both separately and in tandem, is documented in chapter three. The second part of the thesis consists of three case studies. Chapter four examines the uses of seal flipper pie in hegemonic discourse about the province and its culture. Fried foods, specifically fried fish, potatoes and cod tongues, provide the starting point for a discussion of changing attitudes toward food, health and the obligations of citizenry in chapter five.

  • Striped Bass (Morone Saxatilis) Population Characteristics and Spawning Assessment in the Bouctouche and Cocagne Rivers
    STRIPED BASS (MORONE SAXATILIS) POPULATION CHARACTERISTICS AND SPAWNING ASSESSMENT IN THE BOUCTOUCHE AND COCAGNE RIVERS PREPARED BY: CHARLES COMEAU, NATHALIE LEBLANC-POIRIER, MICHELLE MAILLET, DONALD ALEXANDER PRESENTED TO: THE SOUTHEASTERN ANGLERS ASSOCIATION WILDLIFE TRUST FUND FISHERIES AND OCEANS CANADA JULY 2013 1. INTRODUCTION Striped bass (Morone saxatilis) is a native anadromous fish species of the North American Atlantic coastline that spawns in fresh or brackish water. In the Bay of Fundy and Gulf of St Lawrence watersheds, spawning occurs in May and June. Juvenile Striped bass then migrate downstream to brackish waters and eventually salt water to feed and grow until they have reached maturity, a process that normally takes three to four years. Striped bass was considered a commercially important fish before it was designated as a threatened species by COSEWIC (the Committee on the Status of Endangered Wildlife in Canada) in November 2004. However, because there was such a decline in the population, Striped bass met the criteria for being listed as an ‘‘endangered’’ species. The Striped bass population of the Gulf of St Lawrence was ultimately designated as ‘‘threatened’’ because of the high degree of resilience of this species and the high abundance of spawners found prior to the designation. It is therefore important to gather more information on the current Striped bass population in rivers and estuaries draining into the Gulf of St Lawrence. According to the Department of Fisheries and Oceans (DFO) of Canada, there is no evidence that Striped bass spawn successfully in any other rivers in New Brunswick other than the Northwest Miramichi river (DFO, 2011).

    JOURNAL OF NEW BRUNSWICK STUDIES Issue 1 (2010) “I want to know my bloodline”: New Brunswickers and Their Pasts Margaret Conrad, Natalie Dubé, David Northrup, and Keith Owre Abstract New Brunswick is a product of wars fought from 1689 to 1815. During these wars, all of which included battles on North American soil, the social relations among the First Nations, French, and British inhabitants were forged, often in blood. These conflicts became the foundation for mutable but seemingly mutually exclusive identities that are documented in a recent survey of New Brunswickers on how they engage the past in their everyday lives. In this paper, we describe the eighteenth-century context in which many New Brunswick cultural identities were constructed and address the findings of the Canadians and Their Pasts survey in a province where popular engagement with history is complicated by diverse perceptions of the past. « Je veux connaître mes origines. » : les gens du Nouveau-Brunswick et leur passé Résumé Le Nouveau-Brunswick est le produit de guerres ayant eu lieu entre 1689 et 1815. Pendant ces guerres, qui ont toutes eu des batailles en sol nord-américain, des relations sociales se sont tissées entre les Premières nations, les Français et les Britanniques; souvent, ils étaient unis par les liens du sang. Ces conflits sont à la source d’identités mutables, mais qui étaient, en apparence, mutuellement exclusives et qui ont fait l’objet d’une récente enquête qui portait sur les gens du Nouveau-Brunswick et sur la façon qu’ils évoquent le passé au quotidien. Dans cet exposé, nous décrivons le contexte du 18e siècle dans lequel de nombreuses identités culturelles du Nouveau- Brunswick se sont formées et nous nous penchons sur les résultats du sondage portant sur les Canadiens et leur passé et ce, dans une province où l’engagement populaire envers l’histoire se complique par les diverses perceptions du passé.

Much of the information now available about our province is aimed at young readers and people with at least a high school education. The Hitch-Hiker is intended to provide information which beginning adult readers can read and understand. This work has a special feature we hope readers will appreciate and enjoy.
