  • The T.S.S. North Star at Bonne Bay, Newfoundland
    CHAPTER 7 The t.s.s. North Star at Bonne Bay, Newfoundland CRUISING YEARS: NASSAU, A NEW FLAGSHIP AND THE WEST INDIES The "New Northland" Returns to Nassau The New Northland had now been laid up at Quebec for two winters, a situation that the cost-conscious company had wanted to correct for some time. Meanwhile, Munson Lines, now being run by trustees, had reduced its Miami-Nassau service to a fortnightly connection, with just ten sailings by the Munargo during the winter of 1934. Finally, over that same winter Canadian National's Prince David had not been a success and it was not of a mind to send her back to Nassau. This all meant that conditions were now ripe for the New Northland to return. The Government of the Bahamas had now agreed to grant Clarke a subsidy to operate the New Northland between Miami and Nassau, starting in 1935. Although she had not called at Nassau since February 1932, when Governor Sir Bede Clifford had gone aboard, Bahamians remembered the high standards and friendly service that had been her trademarks on the route until 1931. There had still been one area of contention, however. Until now, all ships that had operated between Miami and Nassau had done so strictly as night boats, with passengers leaving the ship on arrival and staying in hotels ashore. But Clarke wanted to offer stay aboard cruises as well. A new kind of subsidy was thus required to protect the tourist trade. Desmond Clarke finally came to an agreement with the Bahamians whereby they would pay a subsidy of only £2,000 (or about $10,000) for a winter season of twice-weekly sailings, but this would rise to £3,000 (or about $15,000) if the New Northland matched or exceeded the number of tourists carried by the Prince David the year before.

    TRAVELLING FOR HEALTH? TOOLKIT LOWER NORTH SHORE USEFUL INFORMATION FOR PEOPLE WHO HAVE TO TRAVEL OUT-OF-REGION TO ACCESS HEALTH SERVICES The goal for this TOOLKIT is to provide English-speakers with helpful information when they must travel out‐of‐region for health services. A Steering Committee oversaw the development of this project with support from the Committee for Anglophone Social Action (CASA) and Jeffrey Hale Community Partners (JHCP). The information provided focuses on services available locally, as well as services in places where patients may be sent for specialized services. The Project’s Steering Committee judged that this information might be helpful to anyone needing to travel out-of-region and decided to offer the TOOLKIT in both English and French. We hope you find this TOOLKIT useful!
