The Tourism Satellite Account (TSA) has become the internationally recognized framework and an important tool by which to measure tourism activity in an economy. The goal of this handbook is to make the CTSA and its inner workings as transparent as possible. By sharing the Canadian practical experiences in development of the TSA, it should benefit other countries and other interested practitioners in the process of developing and understanding TSAs. This handbook covers information on the relevant tourism and national accounting concepts and definitions related to the CTSA. The various survey data sources and the methods used to move this data into the TSA framework are discussed. The Canadian Tourism Satellite Account Handbook was funded through a partnership agreement between the Canadian Tourism Commission and Statistics Canada.

  • Design and Production of a UM Photo Album
    Design and Production of a UM Photo Album by Daniel Kennedy David Johnson A thesis submitted to the faculty of The University of Mississippi in partial fulfillment of the requirements of the Sally McDonnell Barksdale Honors College. Oxford May 2018 Approved by ___________________________________ Advisor: Dr. Jack McClurg ___________________________________ Reader: Dr. Matt O’Keefe ___________________________________ Reader: Dr. Jeremy Griffin Acknowledgements The authors would like to thank all the CME faculty and staff that made this project possible. Without their commitment to the students and the program, projects like this one would never make if off the ground. The authors would like to extend special thanks to Richard Hairston who served as a technical advisor for the project. Special thanks also the CME professors Dr. Vaughn, Dr. McClurg, and Ms. Watanabe. Their guidance was invaluable when the team found itself deep in the weeds. Lastly the authors would like to thank their amazing team that made this idea come to life. Their hard work made this endeavor successful. ii Abstract The following project attempted to design and manufacture a wooden photo album. The final product needed to fully satisfy customer demands as well as turn a profit. The development proceeded in two phases. The design phase sought to take the product from ideation to a fully viable final design for manufacturing. The manufacturing phase sought to create a production process that would both meet customer demands in an efficient and waste-free way. This would be accomplished by implementing principles of Project Management, Toyota Production System, and LEAN. The final product was successfully designed and produced to be a high-end oak photo album with leather and brass accenting.

  • Rural Food and Wine Tourism in Canada's South Okanagan Valley
    sustainability Article Rural Food and Wine Tourism in Canada’s South Okanagan Valley: Transformations for Food Sovereignty? Danielle Robinson 1,2 1 School of Business, Okanagan College, BC V1Y 4X8, Canada 2 Community, Culture and Global Studies, Irving K. Barber Faculty of Arts and Social Sciences, University of British Columbia Okanagan, Kelowna, V1V 1V7, Canada; [email protected] Abstract: This interdisciplinary research analyses the relationships between food sovereignty prin- ciples and food and wine tourism in rural contexts by asking how rural tourism stakeholders understand these concepts, mobilize the interrelationships, and to what purpose. Wine and food tourism is one of the fastest-growing rural tourism niches, with effects on the orientation of food systems, the livelihoods of producers, the viability of rural communities, and the biophysical environ- ment. Secondary research and semi-structured interviews provide insights into how qualities of food sovereignty transitions are conceptualized, recognized, developed, supported, and promoted in the case of British Columbia’s South Okanagan Valley. An appreciative approach was used because this research aims to understand rural food and wine tourism’s potential contribution to food sovereignty. Although the term ‘food sovereignty’ did not resonate for most participants, qualities of a transition towards food sovereignty such as reorienting agriculture, food processing and consumption to the local region, supporting rural economies and environmental sustainability were considered integral to rural food tourism. Participants saw future opportunities for rural food and wine tourism to serve broader transformative purposes that would benefit locals, visitors, and the environment. Research results could be used to inspire critical academic, community and policy dialogue about food sovereignty in wine and food tourism destinations.

  • Aboriginal Participation in Tourism Planning in British Columbia
    Aboriginal Participation in Tourism Planning in British Columbia by Sarah McKenna A thesis presented to the University of Waterloo in fulfillment of the thesis requirement for the degree of Master of Environmental Studies in Geography – Tourism Policy and Planning Waterloo, Ontario, Canada, 2010 ©Sarah McKenna 2010 AUTHOR'S DECLARATION I hereby declare that I am the sole author of this thesis. This is a true copy of the thesis, including any required final revisions, as accepted by my examiners. I understand that my thesis may be made electronically available to the public. ii Abstract Tourism has been identified as a strategy for Indigenous communities worldwide to adopt in order to stimulate economic and social development. The goal of this research was to evaluate Aboriginal participation in tourism and the role it plays in economic and social development of Aboriginal communities. This research also addressed Aboriginal participation within the context of a mega- event, the 2010 Winter Olympic Games. The need for this research came from the common acceptance that tourism can be an effective development strategy for Aboriginal communities. However existing literature is often case-specific with limited research focusing on Canada. Additionally, limited research had addressed Aboriginal participation in Olympic planning and hosting. The goal of this research was met by examining Aboriginal tourism development in British Columbia (BC), Canada, ultimately addressing the aforementioned gaps in the literature. This research used a qualitative approach to investigate Aboriginal participation in tourism planning in British Columbia, Canada. The objectives guiding this research are as follows: (1) To identify the types of involvement; (2) To evaluate the extent of involvement; (3) To explore the relationship between Aboriginal and Non-Aboriginal tourism-related businesses, associations and institutions; and (4) To identify the significance of Aboriginal tourism to the Aboriginal community, British Columbia and Canada.

  • An Exploration of Recreation and Tourism in Brandon, Manitoba
    74 Prairie Perspectives An exploration of recreation and tourism in Brandon, Manitoba K. Laine Mosset, Brandon University John C. Everitt, Brandon University Chris D. Malcolm, Brandon University Introduction Over the past few decades industrial societies have seen a dramatic increase in leisure time and disposable income resulting in an increased demand for recreation and tourism facilities. According to Krotz (1996), tourism is widely recognized as the world’s largest industry. Due to the current popularity of tourism, understanding why humans engage in recreational and tourism activities is an increasingly important and complex area of research for social scientists. Historically, geographers have played a limited role in the development of literature concerning various aspects of tourism and peoples’ use of leisure time, which means that recreation and tourism has only recently made an impact on the wider geographical community. Although disposable income and leisure time have increased over the past forty years, individual social aspects such as occupation, income, material wealth, car ownership and mobility, time available, duties and obligations, social roles, and education, all have a significant impact on participation in recreational activities (Rural Development Institute 2003). More specifically, those with skilled occupations, high incomes, ready access to private transport and higher education tend to lead more active lives involving more leisure activities. Hall and Page (1999) indicate that 53% of those surveyed in their study stated money to be the number one constraint on recreation. Clearly socio-economic status is a powerful determinant in the volume and pattern of current recreation and tourism activity. An indicator of increased travel in Canada is the growth of average disposable income by 4.7% in the year 2000 and 3.2% in 2001 (The Prairie Perspectives 75 Conference Board of Canada n.d.).
