    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.

  • Peggy's Cove Master Plan Appendices
    From: Develop Nova Scotia Date: March 9, 2021 Re: Context for Final Report: Comprehensive Master Plan for Peggy’s Cove (Phase I) The Final Report: Comprehensive Master Plan for Peggy’s Cove (Phase I) prepared by EDM Planning Services Ltd., and Associates, dated November 2019, is a summary of in-depth consultation and analysis completed with Peggy’s Cove residents, community representatives and key stakeholders. The study provides possible design solutions and other recommendations to address issues raised throughout the process. Ongoing work with community and stakeholders helped to prioritize project recommendations that addressed challenges for residents, business operators and visitors to Peggy’s Cove. A Project Working Group, comprising government representatives and resident representatives, was established to provide further guidance and input during a detailed design of priority projects. This input, as well as ongoing input from government partners and stakeholders, during detailed design and implementation planning phase has resulted in refinements and alterations to most initial plans, in some cases significant changes in scope and nature. A public Peggy’s Cove Implementation Plan is almost complete that will outline the projects moving forward and the status of recommendations that have not advanced at this time. The governance section of the report reflects issues raised by residents, community members and key stakeholders including the Peggy’s Cove Commission, as well as preliminary recommendations for additional study or consideration in any future bylaw or governance review. The Peggy’s Cove Commission previously recognized the need for a review of the land use bylaw. Since the completion of the Master Plan study, the Commission, with support from the province’s Department of Inclusive Economic Growth, has advanced this work and is expected to carry out a formal review in 2021.
