2021-22 NL Hunting and Trapping Guide Minister’s Message As Minister of Fisheries, Forestry and Agriculture, I’m happy to share the 2021-22 Newfoundland and Labrador Hunting and Trapping Guide. Within this guide is everything you need to know about quotas, season dates, regulations, and the work we do to manage wildlife and support conservation. Tracking a moose through the woods on a crisp, fall morning, watching a new hunter take aim during their first outing, enjoying a boil-up after a long day’s walk – for thousands of outdoor enthusiasts, this new guide assists with planning those adventures. The information we collect from annual field surveys and research studies and hunting licence and jawbone returns helps biologists and managers provide important recommendations concerning wildlife management that determine annual harvest quotas and seasons. For this coming big game season, we’re allocating 28,324 moose licences for Newfoundland – an overall increase of 369 licences. In Labrador, moose quotas have not changed, with 384 either-sex moose licences available for the upcoming season. For caribou, 575 licences are available for the Island again this season. However for Labrador, the hunting ban enacted in 2013 to protect Labrador caribou is still in effect. As a result of this ban, we are seeing increases in the George River Caribou Herd. Recent census information indicates the population has increased for the first time in 25 years. This is a positive sign for the future, and we’re eagerly looking forward to new survey information that will give scientists a clearer picture of the status of this important and iconic herd. Last season our department asked successful hunters to help with scientific research into our province’s big game populations by re-introducing the jawbone collection program. Thanks to their stewardship efforts, 3,000 jawbones were received from all over the province, and each hunter received (or will receive) a Cooperating Hunter crest. I hope all successful hunters participate in the Jawbone Collection Program again this season, and that you wear your Cooperating Hunter crests with pride. Newfoundland and Labrador’s wildlife and wild places are close to our hearts. I encourage everyone to respect our cherished outdoor heritage and resources, follow all conservation, safety and hunting regulations, and enjoy your time outdoors with family and friends this hunting season. Sincerely, Honourable Derrick Bragg Minister of Fisheries, Forestry and Agriculture BE SAFE BE SEEN: WEAR BLAZE ORANGE 1 HUNTING & TRAPPING GUIDE 2021-22 Table of Contents Minister’s Message

  • Wapusk News the Voice of Wapusk National Park
    Wapusk National Park parkscanada.gc.ca Volume 3, Number 1, Summer 2010 WAPUSK NEWS The voice of Wapusk National Park www.parkscanada.gc.ca/wapusk Wapusk National Park Use Regulations – Why celebrate? Cam Elliott Superintendent, Wapusk National Park & Manitoba North National Historic Sites Usually people don’t view the implementation of new rules and regulations as a reason to rejoice, but in the case of the Wapusk National Park Use Regulations, which came into effect on March 26, 2010, there is reason to celebrate. The Wapusk regulations are unique in Canada’s national park system. By allowing certain activities customarily prohibited in other national parks, they reflect and respect the unique history and traditional local use of the Wapusk National Park (NP) lands. The commitment to the distinct local use of Wapusk NP was made by the Government of Canada in the Federal- Provincial Agreement to Establish Wapusk National Park, an agreement that grew out of public consultations in the Churchill area. Certain activities are generally prohibited in national parks: hunting, trapping, gathering natural products from the land, using all terrain vehicles to access park lands, and using cabins to support these activities. However, the Wapusk Park Establishment Agreement (1996) recognizes these as traditional user activities for the longtime residents of Churchill at the time the agreement was signed. Aboriginal and treaty rights in the park, Picking berries continuation of traditional use of park lands by First Nation Photo: Parks Canada 1 people, and continuing specified traditional uses of park lands and resources by eligible non-Aboriginal people are Parks Canada Plans outlined in the agreement and are allowed through the park use regulations.

We are inspired by the bravery of our soldiers at Normandy and moved by the words of John McCrae’s "In Flanders Fields." We are amazed at the vision of Louis-Joseph Papineau and Sir Wilfrid Laurier. We are enchanted by the paintings of Emily Carr and the writings of Lucy Maud Montgomery. We look back in awe at the wisdom of Sir John A. Macdonald and Sir George-Étienne Cartier. We are moved to tears of joy by the humour of Stephen Leacock and tears of gratitude for the courage of Tecumseh. We hold in high regard the determination of Emily Murphy and Rev. Josiah Henson to overcome obstacles which stood in the way of their dreams. We give thanks for the work of the Victorian Order of Nurses and those who organ- ized the Underground Railroad. We think of those who suffered and died at Grosse Île in the dream of reaching a new home.

  • The Architecture of the Western Canadian Fur Trade: a Cultural-Historical Perspective
    The Architecture of the Western Canadian Fur Trade: A Cultural-Historical Perspective flenry Glassie, in a classic study of Middle Virginia folk housing, wrote: Any artifact that can be provided with association in space and time, either by being accompanied by a document or better-as with gravestones or buildings- by being set into the land, is a valuable source of a great quantity of information.1 There is in architecture a set of complex cultural meanings, or "informa­ tion." Humans use architecture to cope with their environment and their economies, and to support their traditions and beliefs. It also influences people's perception of their physical and social environment. Western Canadian fur trade architecture, which forms the basis of this study, contains information about an early Canadian way of life. Its raw simplicity is a statement about the harsh conditions of the early western Canadian frontier. But fur trade architecture changed through time and space, and was linked to variable economic or social conditions in the fur trade. It is a measure of cultural change, and this truly makes it a valuable source of information about the past. In this study I assess fur trade architecture in western Canada from about 1780 to 1900. First, the basic elements of fur trade architecture are summarized. Next, how those architectural elements are related to the economics and organization of the fur trade are reviewed. Finally, the relationship between architectural elements and the regional and cor­ porate structure of the fur trade are explored. In particular, I examine how and why fur trade architecture is related to regional and occupational inequality.

    2019-20 Hunting and Trapping Guide HUNTING & TRAPPING GUIDE NEWFOUNDLAND AND LABRADOR Minister’s Message For those who love the outdoors as much as I do, the arrival of the annual Hunting and Trapping Guide heralds the beginning of another much-anticipated hunting and trapping season in Newfoundland and Labrador. As Minister of Fisheries and Land Resources, it is my pleasure to share the 2019-20 Hunting and Trapping Guide with you, and to highlight some of our ongoing initiatives to enhance conservation and increase participation in hunting and trapping. This guide is more than a sign of great outdoor adventures ahead – it reflects the science-based decisions our wildlife resource managers have made to support public and stakeholder interests in sustainable wildlife and game management in Newfoundland and Labrador. You’ll find some exciting new initiatives outlined in this year’s guide. • In 2019, my department will relocate up to 15 caribou from the St. Anthony caribou herd to Grey Islands to re-establish a resident caribou population and enhance this iconic species’ conservation status. • Our youth are the wildlife stewards of the future. Beginning this season, we will foster greater interest in hunting and trapping by entering youth hunters into the big game licence draw system at a higher priority pool. This will give first-time youth applicants a better chance of receiving a licence, and the opportunity to learn safe and responsible hunting and trapping skills under the guidance of experienced mentors before being eligible to receive a hunting licence without requiring supervision. • We are furthering our commitment to best management practices through an enhanced education program that will provide hunters with information regarding the best brass wire brands for retaining snowshoe hare that minimize the impact of snaring on threatened Newfoundland marten.
