  • Promising Practices in Suicide Prevention Across Inuit Nunangat
    Promising Practices in Suicide Prevention Across Inuit Nunangat NISPS RESEARCH AND DATA COLLECTION PROJECT JUNE 2019 1 About Inuit Tapiriit Kanatami Inuit Tapiriit Kanatami (ITK) is the national representational organization for Canada’s 65,000 Inuit, the majority of whom live in four regions of Canada’s Arctic, specifically, the Inuvialuit Settlement Region (Northwest Territories), Nunavut, Nunavik (Northern Quebec), and Nunatsiavut (Northern Labrador). Collectively, these four regions make up Inuit Nunangat, our homeland in Canada. It includes 53 communities and encompasses roughly 35 percent of Canada’s land mass and 50 percent of its coastline. The comprehensive land claim agreements that have been settled in Inuit Nunangat continue to form a core component of our organization’s mandate. These land claims have the status of protected treaties under section 35 of the Constitution Act, 1982, and we remain committed to working in partnership with the Crown toward their full implementation. Consistent with its founding purpose, ITK represents the rights and interests of Inuit at the national level through a democratic governance structure that represents all Inuit regions. ITK advocates for policies, programs and services to address the social, cultural, political and environmental issues facing our people. ITK is governed by a Board of Directors composed of the following members: • Chair and CEO, Inuvialuit Regional Corporation • President, Makivik Corporation • President, Nunavut Tunngavik Incorporated • President, Nunatsiavut Government In addition to voting members, the following non-voting Permanent Participant Representatives also sit on the Board of Directors: • President, Inuit Circumpolar Council Canada • President, Pauktuutit Inuit Women of Canada • President, National Inuit Youth Council Prepared by Firelight Research Inc., 2019 2 Acknowledgements This report was produced by Inuit Tapiriit Kanatami with support from the National Inuit Suicide Prevention Strategy Working Group and The Firelight Group.

    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.

  • The Ecology and Management of Moose in North America
    THE ECOLOGY AND MANAGEMENT OF MOOSE IN NORTH AMERICA Douglas H. PIMLOTT Department of Lands and Forests, Maple, Ontario, Canada Concepts of the status, productivity and management of North American moose (Alces alces) have changed greatly during the past decade. The rapidity of the change is illustrated by the published record. TUFTS (1951) questioned, « Is the moose headed for extinc­ tion ? » and discussed the then current belief that moose populations had seriously declined across much of the continent. Five years later, PETERSON (1955: 217) stated, « It appears almost inevitable that the days of unlimited hunting for moose must soon pass from most of North America. » He also suggested (1955 : 216) that a kill of 12 to 25 per cent of the adult population is the highest that would permit the maintenance of the breeding population. Four years later, I showed (PIMLOTT, 1959a) that moose in Newfoundland could sustain a kill of twice the magnitude suggested by Peterson. I also suggested (PIMLOTT, 1959b) that the North American moose kill could be very greatly increased-in spite of progressive liberalization of hunting regulations over much of Canada and a marked increase in annual kill. It is not realistic to assume that the status of the species has changed, within the decade, from threatened extinction to annual harvests of approximately 40,000 and potential harvests of two to three times that number. Although moose populations have increased in some areas since 1950, there is little doubt that the changed think­ ing about moose management is more the result of the increase in knowledge than of any other factor.

  • Striped Bass (Morone Saxatilis) Population Characteristics and Spawning Assessment in the Bouctouche and Cocagne Rivers
    STRIPED BASS (MORONE SAXATILIS) POPULATION CHARACTERISTICS AND SPAWNING ASSESSMENT IN THE BOUCTOUCHE AND COCAGNE RIVERS PREPARED BY: CHARLES COMEAU, NATHALIE LEBLANC-POIRIER, MICHELLE MAILLET, DONALD ALEXANDER PRESENTED TO: THE SOUTHEASTERN ANGLERS ASSOCIATION WILDLIFE TRUST FUND FISHERIES AND OCEANS CANADA JULY 2013 1. INTRODUCTION Striped bass (Morone saxatilis) is a native anadromous fish species of the North American Atlantic coastline that spawns in fresh or brackish water. In the Bay of Fundy and Gulf of St Lawrence watersheds, spawning occurs in May and June. Juvenile Striped bass then migrate downstream to brackish waters and eventually salt water to feed and grow until they have reached maturity, a process that normally takes three to four years. Striped bass was considered a commercially important fish before it was designated as a threatened species by COSEWIC (the Committee on the Status of Endangered Wildlife in Canada) in November 2004. However, because there was such a decline in the population, Striped bass met the criteria for being listed as an ‘‘endangered’’ species. The Striped bass population of the Gulf of St Lawrence was ultimately designated as ‘‘threatened’’ because of the high degree of resilience of this species and the high abundance of spawners found prior to the designation. It is therefore important to gather more information on the current Striped bass population in rivers and estuaries draining into the Gulf of St Lawrence. According to the Department of Fisheries and Oceans (DFO) of Canada, there is no evidence that Striped bass spawn successfully in any other rivers in New Brunswick other than the Northwest Miramichi river (DFO, 2011).

Study of Gender-based Violence and Shelter Service Needs across Inuit Nunangat Preface It was important to the research team that this study be community driven and uphold the values of Pauktuutit Inuit Women of Canada and the Inuit women that the organization serves. Throughout the project, efforts were made to uphold the Inuit-specific values of Inuit Qaujimajatuqangit (IQ) in each of the seven communities and three urban centres where the research was conducted, including: Yellowknife and Inuvik in the Inuvialuit region of the Northwest Territories; Nain in Nunatsiavut and Happy Valley-Goose Bay in Newfoundland and Labrador; Kuujjuaq and Montreal in Quebec; Cape Dorset, Iqaluit and Clyde River in Nunavut; and, Ottawa in Ontario. The writing of this report is based in responsive research which braids together Inuit knowledge, community-based practices, and western scientific research methods to ensure that the research approach is safe for participants,

  • Creighton-Flin Flon
    Flin Flon Domain of Saskatchewan – Dataset Descriptions The Flin Flon domain hosts one of the most prolific Precambrian volcanogenic massive sulphide (VMS) districts in the world, with over 160 million tonnes of ore produced from at least 28 deposits in Saskatchewan and Manitoba since the start of the 20th century. Situated in the Reindeer Zone of the of the Trans-Hudson Orogen, rocks of this domain comprise dominantly metamorphosed and polydeformed volcanoplutonic terranes with subordinate siliciclastic sedimentary sequences. Volcanic rocks vary in composition throughout the domain and were originally emplaced in a variety of tectonic settings, including island arc(s), arc rift, ocean floor, and ocean pleateau. The VMS deposits are hosted primarily by Paleoproterozoic juvenile arc rocks in one of several defined lithotectonic assemblages. The datasets provided for this area are located within a ~12,000 km2 area of the Flin Flon Domain of Saskatchewan that contains several past producing base metal mines and a multitude of known mineral occurrences. The northern quarter of the area is underlain by exposed Precambrian Shield, whereas the southern three-quarters consists of Precambrian basement situated beneath up to 200 metres of undeformed, Phanerozoic sedimentary rocks. The sedimentary cover in this southern portion makes exploration of the Precambrian rocks particularly challenging. The datasets provided for this area consist of: (i) airborne geophysical survey data, and (ii) multiple GIS datasets from the exposed Precambrian Shield and/or the buried Precambrian basement and/or the Phanerozoic sedimentary cover. The geophysical data comprises digital data for 22 airborne surveys including industry-derived data submitted to the Saskatchewan Geological Survey through assessment work reports, and surveys funded by provincial and federal governments.
