Müller a; Robert Pettersson b Scandinavian Journal of Hospitality and Tourism, Vol. 6, No. 1, pp.54-69 Abstract Indigenous tourism is an expansive sector in the growing tourism industry. However, the tourist experience of the indigenous heritage is often delimited to staged culture in museums, exhibitions and festivals. In this paper, focus is put on the annual Sámi winter festival in Jokkmokk, Sweden. It is discussed to what extent this festival truly is an indigenous event. This is accomplished by scrutinizing the Sámi representation at the festival regarding its content and its spatial location. It is argued that the available indigenous heritage is highly staged, although backstage experiences are available for the Sámi and for the curious tourists. Keywords: Cultural event; indigenous festival; Sámi tourism; Sápmi; Jokkmokk Introduction Indigenous experiences are coveted, but often hard to catch. Thanks to a growing industry of indigenous tourism the accessibility increases. According to Smith (1996) there are four different elements which are influential in the development of indigenous tourism, and can be a part of the tourist experience: habitat, history, handicrafts and heritage. -

February – Quebec – Winter Carnival
Celebrates Canada 150 - Quebec Bienvenue au Quebec (Welcome to Quebec)! Quebec was one of the original four provinces that formed Canada in 1867. Known as “la belle province” (the beautiful province) to its locals, Quebec is the largest Canadian province (in terms of area). Quebec is a vibrant multicultural province, often recognized as the “Europe of North America”. Quebec is also famous for its vast forests, rolling hills and countless waterways. Quebec is the only province whose official language is French. The capital city is Quebec City, with a population of nearly 800,000. Quebec is also home to Canada’s second largest city, and the second largest French-speaking city in the world, Montreal (more than four million people). Continental air masses are common in Québec, the temperature is affected by marine currents. One of the most important of these is the cold Labrador Current. It moves southward from Labrador to Newfoundland. It is the main cause of cool East Coast summers and the Gulf Stream is responsible for humid heat waves during the summer. Because of the frequent meeting of warm tropical air from the Gulf of Mexico and cold, dry air from the north or west, the entire province receives heavy snowfalls during the winter. Snowy winters in Quebec don’t keep locals and visitors from having fun. The Quebec area boasts fantastic terrain and exceptional conditions, with an average natural snowfall of over 400cm each year! You can ski or snowboard at any of the four resorts just minutes from Quebec City. You can also enjoy ice-skating, dogsledding, Nordic spas, snowmobiling, snow sliding, cross country skiing, and the famous Winter Carnival!

Ottawa Experiences Ottawa Best the Ottawa’S Other Bond with Nature Is Its Rivers
THE BEST OF 1 OTTAWA s a native of Ottawa, I’ve seen this city evolve over the past 5 decades from a sleepy civil-service Atown to a national capital that can proudly hold its own with any city of comparable size. The official population is more than 800,000, but the central core is compact and its skyline relatively short. Most Ottawans live in suburban, or even rural, communities. The buses are packed twice a day with government workers who live in communities like Kanata, Nepean, Gloucester, and Orleans, which were individually incorporated cities until municipal amalgamation in 2001. Although there are a number of residential neighborhoods close to downtown, you won’t find the kind of towering condominiums that line the downtown streets of Toronto or Vancouver. As a result, Ottawa is not the kind of city where the downtown side- walks are bustling with people after dark, with the excep- tion of the ByWard Market and Elgin Street. One could make the case that Ottawa would be very dull indeed were it not for Queen Victoria’s decision to anoint it capital of the newly minted Dominion of Canada. Thanks to her choice, tourists flock to the Parlia- ment Buildings, five major national museums, a handful of government- funded festivals, and the Rideau Canal. Increasingly, tourists are spreading COPYRIGHTEDout beyond the well-established attractions MATERIAL to discover the burgeoning urban neighborhoods like Wellington West and the Glebe, and venturing into the nearby countryside. For visitors, Ottawa is an ideal walking city. Most of the major attrac- tions—and since this is a national capital, there are many—are within easy walking distance of the major hotels. -

CITY of NOVI CITY COUNCIL Agenda Item E August 13, 2018 cityofnovi.org SUBJECT: Approval of Resolution Authorizing "2018 Michigan State Fair" to occur on the Suburban Collection Showplace property at 46100 Grand River Avenue. SUBMITTING DEPARTMENT: City Manager's CITY MANAGER APPROVAL: ~ BACKGROUND INFORMATION: The owner of the Suburban Collection Showplace is organizing the Michigan State Fair, for the seventh straight year on the exposition property, with certain adjacent property being used for fair activities, overflow parking and camping area for exhibitors at the fair. "Outside exhibits, fairs, entertainment and festivals" are permitted uses under Section l 002A.2.h of the EXO District regulations. Section also 1003A.9 discusses Council's authority to impose "reasonable conditions" in order to ensure "that an outdoor recreation use is compatible with the surrounding area, including site improvements and features such as additional screening, landscaping and increased setbacks." The attached resolution proposes a set of conditions for the applicant to meet for the activities proposed to take place on the Suburban Collection Showplace property. It is primarily a description of public health, safety, and welfare inspections that the City would undertake as the items are being placed or constructed to accommodate the fair use. As an additional step, the City has reviewed and will be issuing an Outdoor Gathering Permit for fair related displays, amusements, overflow parking and possible camping use on the adjacent properties to the west of the Suburban Collection Showplace site. Due to the ongoing construction taking place for the addition to the Showplace hall the midway for the fair will be located west of the building.
