Death and Life for Inuit and Innu
skin for skin Narrating Native Histories Series editors: K. Tsianina Lomawaima Alcida Rita Ramos Florencia E. Mallon Joanne Rappaport Editorial Advisory Board: Denise Y. Arnold Noenoe K. Silva Charles R. Hale David Wilkins Roberta Hill Juan de Dios Yapita Narrating Native Histories aims to foster a rethinking of the ethical, methodological, and conceptual frameworks within which we locate our work on Native histories and cultures. We seek to create a space for effective and ongoing conversations between North and South, Natives and non- Natives, academics and activists, throughout the Americas and the Pacific region. This series encourages analyses that contribute to an understanding of Native peoples’ relationships with nation- states, including histo- ries of expropriation and exclusion as well as projects for autonomy and sovereignty. We encourage collaborative work that recognizes Native intellectuals, cultural inter- preters, and alternative knowledge producers, as well as projects that question the relationship between orality and literacy. skin for skin DEATH AND LIFE FOR INUIT AND INNU GERALD M.

Labrador City and Wabush : Resilient Communities Karen Oldford - Mayor Town of Labrador City Ken Anthony – CAO Town of Wabush Benefits of Labrador West Established community = reduced start up costs for industry Suited for operation phase of projects Experience of labour force Resource companies share in the value of creating community through corporate stewardship. Community amenities key for retaining workers. Link to natural environment – recreation amenities. Boom Bust Cycle Last big Bust 1982 Hundreds of homes vacant for approx 8 yrs Homes sold by banks and companies for $5,000- $25,000 Affordable homes and affordable apartment rents until 2005 2010 – same homes sell for $325,000 - $549,000 rental rates now $1,000 per bedroom i.e. 1 bedroom apt 1,200, 2 bedroom $2,000 and house rental $5,000 month! Challenges of Labrador West • Economic dependence on single industry • Growth impaired due to subsurface mineral rights • Transient Workforce Population • Expense of building/operating in remote northern location Challenges: Single Industry Market is volatile Community grows and diminishes in response to the resource Non renewable = finite. Challenges: Growth • Expansion/development encroach on mineral reserves • Land management strongly influenced by Provincial interest and local industry • Growth responds to market conditions – often lags behind needs of community and industry Challenges: Flyin/Flyout Arrangements Necessary for resource projects when workforce needs are high but short lived. I.e. construction phase Transient residents – not fully engaged in community (i.e. lack of community involvement and volunteerism. Often project negative image of the region due to their lived reality.) Negative perception amongst long-term residents of “contractors”. -
