  • Land and Belonging in Gaelic Nova Scotia
    “Dh’fheumadh iad àit’ a dheanamh” (They would have to make a Place): LAND AND BELONGING IN GAELIC NOVA SCOTIA © Shamus Y. MacDonald 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 December 2017 St. John’s Newfoundland and Labrador Abstract: This thesis explores the way land has been perceived, described and experienced by Scottish Gaels in Nova Scotia. It examines how attitudes towards land are maintained and perpetuated through oral traditions and how oral history, legends and place names have fostered a sense of belonging in an adopted environment. Drawing on archival research and contemporary ethnographic fieldwork in Gaelic and English, it explores how people give anonymous aspects of the natural and built environment meaning, how personal and cultural significance is attached to landscapes, and how oral traditions contribute to a sense of place. Exploring a largely unofficial tradition, my thesis includes a survey of Gaelic place names in Nova Scotia that shows how settlers and their descendants have interpreted their surroundings and instilled them with a sense of Gaelic identity. It also considers local traditions about emigration and settlement, reflecting on the messages these stories convey to modern residents and how they are used to construct an image of the past that is acceptable to the present. Given its focus on land, this work investigates the protective attitude towards property long ascribed to Highland Gaels in the province, considering local perspectives of this claim and evaluating its origins.

  • Gabarus Is in a Class by Itself in Nova Scotia
    Nova Scotia — Lieutenant Governor’s Community Spirit Award The term “Community Spirit,” defined as the ability to collaborate, cooperate, and mutually sacrifice to achieve a common end, is what propels societies forward. That is the true meaning of “Community Spirit” and its ultimate measure is how this energy radiates to enrich and improve not just an individual community but the larger society to which it belongs. Using this definition of Community Spirit, Gabarus is in a class by itself in Nova Scotia. With a winter population of 60 and a summer population of about 250, Gabarus has defied the odds by becoming one of the few communities in Cape Breton to grow. It has done so by successfully integrating the existing 300 year old fishing community with an eclectic mix of newcomers including successful business people, electrical and environmental engineers, scientists, authors, entrepreneurs, nurses, doctors etc. It is this combination of old and new that gives Gabarus its palpable energy and confidence. In terms of reaching out to the broader community Gabarus has developed a successful and exportable model for gaining public support for needed construction of an enormous sea wall to protect our harbour and its precious fishing industry. This task was thought impossible by all the pundits but they underestimated the national and international constituency that would be assembled behind this project. This effort garnered the support of Canadians coast to coast and people from around the world. The same holds true of our successful efforts to save our Heritage Lighthouse and move it to safer ground. This effort involved not just significant fund raising but garnered national and international press coverage.
