    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.

INTRODUCTION In the ground-breaking case of Tsilhqot’in Nation v. British Columbia2 the Supreme Court of Canada recognized and affirmed Aboriginal title under section 35(1) of the Constitution Act, 1982.3 It held that the Tsilhqot’in Nation possess constitutionally protected rights to certain lands in central British Columbia.4 In drawing this conclusion the Tsilhqot’in secured a declaration of “ownership rights similar to those associated with fee simple, including: the right to decide how the land will be used; the right of enjoyment and occupancy of the land; the right to possess the land; the right to the economic benefits of the land; and the right to pro-actively use and manage the land”.5 These are wide-ranging rights.

  • Studying Indigenous Politics in Canada: Assessing Political Science's Understanding of Traditional Aboriginal Governance
    Studying Indigenous Politics in Canada: Assessing Political Science's Understanding of Traditional Aboriginal Governance Frances Widdowson, Ezra Voth and Miranda Anderson Department of Policy Studies Mount Royal University Paper Presented at the 84th Annual Conference of the Canadian Political Science Association University of Alberta, Edmonton, Alberta, June 13-15, 2012 In the discipline of political science, the importance of understanding the historical development of political systems is recognized. A historical sequence of events must be constructed and analyzed to determine possible causes and effects when studying politics and government systematically. Introductory political science textbooks lament the minimal historical understanding that exists amongst the student body because it is maintained that those “without a historical perspective are adrift intellectually. They lack the important bearings that make sense of Canada‟s unique history, as well as the development of Western civilization and the rise and 1 fall of other civilizations”. Historical understanding is particularly important in the study of indigenous politics in Canada, where there is a constant attempt to link modern and traditional forms of governance. Understanding aboriginal traditions is essential for achieving aboriginal-non-aboriginal reconciliation, and many political scientists argue that misrepresentations of pre-contact indigenous governance continue to perpetuate colonialism. This makes it important to ask how aboriginal political traditions are being

I am thankful to have so many supportive colleagues with us and to know that I am amongst my Elders. Justice Harry LaForme taught me at Osgoode Hall Law School when I was a doctoral student there in the early ‘90s. I am also very grateful for the introductions we received from the Elders, the Chief, and representatives of the Métis Nation. I am thankful we live in a beautiful world. Standing in this room this morning, looking out over the water and seeing Nanaboozhoo, the Sleeping Giant, is a reminder of the power of this place. It was also great to be in the Fort William First Nation’s sugar bush yesterday, nestled between those two escarpments, as the light snow fell on us. It was a reminder of the beauty of the stories that can swirl around us this time of year.
