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.

    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.

  • Help Pass Enabling Legislation That Would Give Municipal Governments
    *Action Alert* from the *NBEN Pesticides Caucus* Help pass enabling legislation that would give municipal governments in New Brunswick the authority to pass bylaws banning or reducing the use of cosmetic and non-essential pesticides. Dear concerned citizen, In November 2007, an amendment to the New Brunswick Municipalities Act will be presented to the Legislative Assembly. This amendment would give municipal governments the authority to pass bylaws banning or reducing the use of cosmetic and non-essential pesticides. With the current legislation, municipalities who adopt pesticide bylaws are taking the risk of being challenged in court by the pesticide industry for not having the authority to do so. Four New Brunwick municipalities - Caraquet, Shediac, St. Andrews, and Sackville - have enacted bylaws banning non-essential pesticides, and they have yet to be challenged by the pesticide industry. This amendment to the Municipalities Act is crucial for the complete ban of non-essential pesticides in N.B. Liberal MLA Chris Collins (Moncton-East) is making great efforts to support this bill. In July 2007 his son died at the age of 13 from a type of cancer linked to pesticide exposure. Although we know that the Minister of Health, Michael Murphy, is in favour of the amendment, it remain unclear how many other MLAs will support the amendment. For it to be adopted, a government bill needs to gain the support from the majority of Cabinet (N.B. Ministers), then the majority of Caucus (Liberal MLAs) and then it must gain the majority from the Legislative Assembly (all New Brunswick MLAs). We must lobby all cabinet ministers and all MLAs (regardless political affiliation), in favour of the amendment.

  • S Storm-Petrels on Baccalieu Island, Newfoundland
    POPULATION STUDY HEBREEDING RANGE OF LEACH'S Storm-Petrel( Oceanodroma leu- The world'slargest known corhoa) in the Northwest Atlan- tic is centered in eastern Newfound- land. Owing to the species'nocturnal nestingcolony of and burrow-nestinghabits, the breed- ing populations and distributions of storm-petrels, first documented in Leach's Storm-Petrels Newfoundlandby Petersand Burleigh (1951), have historicallybeen grossly underestimatedand are not presently on BaccalieuIsland,, well known. Storm-petrel coloniesin Newfoundland are vastly larger than all others in the Northwest Atlantic Newfoundland (Huntington 1963; Montevecchi, in prep.), but few quantitative data on colony populationshave been gener- ated. The colony of Leach's Storm-Pe- trels on Baccalieu Island, Newfound- B. O. Sklepkovych and IV. A. Montevecchi land, hasgone largely unrecognized as an important nestingsite for the spe- des (Brown et al. 1975; Nettleship 1980). In the present paper, we esti- mate the breeding population of storm-petrelsbased on measurements of burrow densitiesin all nestinghab- itats and on quantitative estimatesof the island'ssurface areas. Our popu- lation figure, which is compared with thoseof other coloniesthroughout the world, yields new perspectivesof the energy consumption of these birds in the marine ecosystemof the North- west Atlantic. Study Area BaccalieuIsland (-6.3 x I kilome- ter, 48'07'N, 54ø12'W) is situatedoff the northeastern tip of Newfound- land's Avalon Peninsula (Figure 1). Leach'sStorm-Petrels nest in a variety of habitats over the entire island, but principallyoccupy grassy-hummock- ed slopes,boreal forest and Empetrum heaths. Smaller, less defined habitats suchas herb (grassyareas with more than 60 percent fern or tall herb cover), grassy meadow, and heath Leach• Storm-Petrel (Oceanodromaleucorhda).
