  • Micmac Migration to Western Newfoundland

    Micmac Migration to Western Newfoundland

    MICMAC MIGRATION TO WESTERN NEWFOUNDLAND DENNIS A. BARTELS Department of Anthropology Sir Wilfred Grenfell College Memorial University of Newfoundland Corner Brook, Newfoundland Canada, and OLAF UWE JANZEN Department of History Sir Wilfred Grenfell College Memorial University of Newfoundland Corner Brook, Newfoundland Canada, ABSTRACT / RESUME The Micmac of Cape Breton are known to have had a long history of seasonal contact with Newfoundland. It is generally accepted that they resided there permanently by the early 19th century. The authors review the available evidence and conclude that the permanent occupation of Newfoundland by the Micmac began in the 1760s. On sait que les Micmac de cap-Breton ont eu une longue histoire du contact saisonnier avec la Terre-Neuve. Il est généralement admis qu'ils y habitèrent en permanence au début du XIXe siècle. Les auteurs examinent l'évidence disponible et concluent que l'occupation permanente de la Terre-Neuve par les Micmac a commencé dans les années 1760. 72 Dennis A. Bartel/Olaf Uwe Janzen INTRODUCTION It is generally conceded that the Micmac of Cape Breton Island were a maritime-adapted people with sufficient seafaring skills to extend their territorial range as far into the Gulf of St. Lawrence as the Magdalen Islands and as far east as St. Pierre and Miquelon.1 By the eighteenth century, the Micmac were able to maintain a persistent presence in southern and southwestern Newfoundland. Some scholars have concluded from this that southwestern Newfoundland could have been a regular part of the territorial range of the Cape Breton Micmac since prehistoric times.2 In the absence of archaeological evidence to support such a conclusion, others, such as Marshall (1988) and Upton (1979:64) are unwilling to concede more than a seasonal exploitation of Newfoundland.

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.

    A Home for Nature: Protected Areas Plan for the Island of Newfoundland

    A Home for Nature Protected Areas Plan for the Island of Newfoundland Acknowledgements This Protected Areas Plan for the Island of Newfoundland is the result of over 25 years of science advice, conservation planning, reserve site selection and assessment, resource industry assessments, discussions and negotiations. Although the process was lengthy and challenging, citizens should feel confident that the result is a well-considered and balanced contribution to sustainability of our province: for our environmental, economic and social well-being. The Wilderness and Ecological Reserves Advisory Council would like to acknowledge and thank all those who had a hand in development of the Plan: the Protected Areas Association; the Natural Areas System Plan Committee (1995-1996); the Natural Areas Plan Conflict Resolution Committee (2002-2003); the Western Newfoundland Model Forest; the Natural Areas System Plan Working Group (2006-2008); the Natural Areas System Plan Deputy Minister Steering Committee; past members of the Wilderness and Ecological Reserves Advisory Council; interdepartmental ad hoc committees (2000-2019) and staff from provincial government departments representing tourism, municipalities, forestry, mining, Indigenous affairs, environment and wildlife, that worked so hard over the years to bring this Plan forward. Finally, WERAC would like to thank all the people of Newfoundland and Labrador who have been involved in the establishment of our province’s existing wilderness and ecological reserves.
