  • An Analysis of Heritage in Tourist Brochures, Halifax, Nova Scotia, 2019
    AN ANALYSIS OF HERITAGE IN TOURIST BROCHURES, HALIFAX, NOVA SCOTIA, 2019 by Thomas LaPierre A thesis submitted in fulfillment of the requirements of GEOG 4526 for the Degree of Bachelor of Arts (Honours) Department of Geography and Environmental Studies Saint Mary’s University Halifax, Nova Scotia, Canada © Thomas LaPierre, 2020 April 14, 2020 Members of the Examining Committee: Dr. Jason Grek-Martin (Supervisor) Department of Geography and Environmental Studies Saint Mary’s University Dr. Mathew Novak Department of Geography and Environmental Studies Saint Mary’s University ii My thesis is dedicated to everyone in the world, especially healthcare workers, world leaders and anyone who has suffered from COVID-19. We are all going through tough times right now. But we will get through this. Humanity finds a way every time to survive and adapt. Stay strong and healthy! iii ABSTRACT An Analysis of Heritage in Tourist Brochures, Halifax, Nova Scotia, 2019 by Thomas LaPierre I collected brochures from several sites in Halifax during the summer of 2019, analyzing them for heritage content, especially keeping an eye out for Scottishness and idyllic maritime folk themes. In the early-mid 20th century, the Nova Scotian government took interest in these things, and elevated their importance to help create a unified heritage strategy. I examined Citadel Hill and Fisherman’s Cove as case studies that had elements of Scottishness and idyllic maritime folk themes, respectively. In this thesis, I lay out histories of the two sites and of Nova Scotia’s historical heritage development, explaining why Scottishness and idyllic maritime folk themes are still prominent in the province’s tourist landscape today.
