Earthquakes in the Strait of Belle Isle are measured using the Nuttli Magnitude scale, developed and applied to seismic events in eastern North America (Earthquakes Canada 2010b, internet site). The two earthquakes in the Strait of Belle Isle had magnitudes between 2.6 and 2.7. Earthquakes with a magnitude between 2.5 and 3 produce a low rumbling noise which 10 can be heard by people at rest. Earthquakes of these magnitudes would have no effects on the local environment (Earthquakes Canada 2008, internet site). There is currently one active ocean disposal site in the Strait of Belle Isle, associated with the disposal of fish offal (Public Works and Government Services Canada Environmental Services 2005). This site is located at L’Anse au Loup, at the end of the main wharf near the local fish processing plant, and has a depth of 15 approximately 6 m (Figure 10.5.2‐3). This disposal site is approximately 12 km from the submarine cable crossing corridor. Permit for use of the site has been issued annually to the Labrador Fishermen’s Union Shrimp Company since 1990. The allowable dumping quantity for the site is 1,000 tonnes/year (Public Works and Government Services Canada Environmental Services 2005). There is potential for unexploded ordinance within the Strait of Belle Isle (Figure 10.5.2‐3). The HMS Raleigh, 20 equipped with 190 mm, 152 mm, and 127 mm guns, ran aground off Point Amour, Labrador, in August 1922 in shallow water (<30 m), carrying approximately 900 naval rounds (Fugro Jacques GeoSurveys Inc. 2008). It is believed that the wreck and ordinance were spread over an area of approximate 200 m x 50 m (10 ha). The DND has completed a three‐year remediation effort focused on conducting underwater detonation of the remaining ordinance due to the risk associated with munitions washing ashore. This area is approximately 25 5 km north‐east of the submarine cable crossing corridor. There are no pipelines, cables or other infrastructure on or in the seabed within the Strait of Belle Isle (Canadian Hydrographic Services (CHS) 2002). There are 17 shipwrecks in the Study Area, but none within the submarine cable crossing corridor (Barron, n.d. internet site) (Figure 10.5.2‐3). The depths of these wrecks vary betweend 10 an 70 m (Fugro Jacques GeoSurveys Inc. 2010). 30 April 2012 Page 10‐244 ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! !! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! !! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! !!! ! ! ! !

    CENTRE FOR NEWFOUNDLAND STUDIES TOTAL OF 10 PAGES ONLY MAY BE XEROXED (Without Author' s Permission) p CLASS ACTS: CULINARY TOURISM IN NEWFOUNDLAND AND LABRADOR by Holly Jeannine Everett 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 May 2005 St. John's Newfoundland ii Class Acts: Culinary Tourism in Newfoundland and Labrador Abstract This thesis, building on the conceptual framework outlined by folklorist Lucy Long, examines culinary tourism in the province of Newfoundland and Labrador, Canada. 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.

Learning about our own part of the earth can help us get a better understanding of the world at large. Much of the information now available about our province is aimed at young readers and people with at least a high school education. The Hitch-Hiker is intended to provide information which beginning adult readers can read and understand. This work has a special feature we hope readers will appreciate and enjoy. Many of the places written about in this book are seen through the eyes of an adult learner and other fictional characters. These characters were created to help add a touch of reality to the printed page. We hope the characters and the things they learn and talk about also give the reader a better understanding of our province. Above all, we hope this book challenges your curiosity and encourages you to search for more information about our land.

    Entanglements Between Irish Catholics and the Fishermen's

    Rogues Among Rebels: Entanglements between Irish Catholics and the Fishermen’s Protective Union of Newfoundland by Liam Michael O’Flaherty M.A. (Political Science), University of British Columbia, 2008 B.A. (Honours), Memorial University of Newfoundland, 2006 Thesis Submitted in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Master of Arts in the Department of History Faculty of Arts and Social Sciences © Liam Michael O’Flaherty, 2017 SIMON FRASER UNIVERSITY Summer 2017 Approval Name: Liam Michael O’Flaherty Degree: Master of Arts Title: Rogues Among Rebels: Entanglements between Irish Catholics and the Fishermen’s Protective Union of Newfoundland Examining Committee: Chair: Elise Chenier Professor Willeen Keough Senior Supervisor Professor Mark Leier Supervisor Professor Lynne Marks External Examiner Associate Professor Department of History University of Victoria Date Defended/Approved: August 24, 2017 ii Ethics Statement iii Abstract This thesis explores the relationship between Newfoundland’s Irish Catholics and the largely English-Protestant backed Fishermen’s Protective Union (FPU) in the early twentieth century. The rise of the FPU ushered in a new era of class politics. But fishermen were divided in their support for the union; Irish-Catholic fishermen have long been seen as at the periphery—or entirely outside—of the FPU’s fold. Appeals to ethno- religious unity among Irish Catholics contributed to their ambivalence about or opposition to the union. Yet, many Irish Catholics chose to support the FPU. In fact, the historical record shows Irish Catholics demonstrating a range of attitudes towards the union: some joined and remained, some joined and then left, and others rejected the union altogether.

Local movements, home ranges and body condition of Common Eiders Somateria mollissima wintering in Southwest Greenland. Ardea 94(3): 639–650. We examined local movements, home ranges and body condition of wintering Northern Common Eiders Somateria mollissima borealis in Southwest Greenland from late winter until spring migration in 2000 and 2001. At key marine habitats at coastal areas and in the inner fjord system of Nuuk, we implanted 33 Eiders with satellite transmitters and collected Eider carcasses for body condition analyses. Most Eiders exhib- ited strong site fidelity during the study period with a mean 95% home range size of 67.8 km2 and a mean core area (50%) of 8.1 km2. Diurnal movements peaked at dawn and dusk when birds presumably moved between feeding areas and roosting sites. Roosting occurred near day- time activity centres, on average 1.7 km apart. Among birds marked at coastal habitats only between 8% and 29% also used the inner fjord habitats, despite high levels of hunting at the coastal area. Birds that did move to the inner fjord system did not return to the coastal area. These findings accentuate the need for managing wintering Common Eiders in Southwest Greenland also at a local scale, taking site fidelity into account. The body condition of adult fjord birds was either equal or superior to that of coastal birds.
