    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.

You have asked me to make recommendations, with supporting rationale, on the completion and implementation of a Grizzly Bear recovery Plan based on a review of: (1) the draft Grizzly Bear Recovery Plan for the North Cascades of British Columbia(January 19, 2001) (Draft recovery plan) (2) the Input received during the Public Consultation Period (Public Input), (3) the Proposed responses to this input from the North Cascades Grizzly Bear Recovery Team (Team Responses), and, (4) Any additional technical/scientific input. In addition to this, for the first eight meetings we had the privilege of a resource person from the recovery team to guide us through the above. You have to appreciate that the taskforce represents a wide range of stakeholder interests. Even with a two-month extension, aside from general agreement that there should be a conservation strategy for the grizzly bear your expectation of a consensus on recommendations for completion and implementation of the recovery plan is overly optimistic. Now, because of the timeframe for submitting (Dec. 15) and finding that we have exceeded our budget, I am breaking away from trying to reach consensus recommendations; keeping to the Terms of Reference re: Decision-making. I was nominated by Dave Chutter MLA (Yale-Lillooet) to represent local residents on the North Cascades Grizzly Bear Taskforce.

  • Wildfire Development Permit (WFDP) Area
    Wildfire Development Permit (WFDP) Area Category The Wildfire Development Permit (WFDP) Area is designated pursuant to Section 488(1)(b) of the Local Government Act for the protection of development from hazardous conditions. Area The lands shown as Wildfire Development Permit Area on Schedule ‘Y’ are designated as a Wildfire Development Permit Area. Justification To regulate development activities within wildfire areas in order to minimize the risk of wildfire on private property. The objectives of the WFDP are to: • Assess and manage the wildfire hazards in RDOS to maintain these risks within levels acceptable to the public; • Direct growth away from areas most vulnerable to wildfire hazards towards more suitable, and less risky locations. • Prevent personal injury and property loss; • Protect structures from damage; and • Provide stable and accessible building sites. Background Significant areas within the RDOS are located within and adjacent to forestland that poses a risk from wildfire. Fire behaviour modelling, and the proximity of homes and businesses to the forest interface have been assessed as part of the Community Wildfire Protection Plan and additional professional analysis. As a result, the Wildfire Development Permit (WFDP) Area was approved by the RDOS Board. Development Requiring a Permit A Wildfire Development Permit is required, except where exempt under Section 1.1.10 (Exemptions), for development on lands within the WFDP area. Where not exempted, development requiring a development permit includes: a) construction
