Book excerpt: Kennedy (anthropology, Memorial U. of Newfoundland) explores the little known European settlers of southeastern Labrador between the Chautea and Sandwich Bays. He shows how their annual migration between farming and fishing sites has been interrupted during the 20th century and the people have become centralized and dependent as in other rural areas. Among the other highlights are the role of Inuit enclaves in the early European settlement, the impact of the Grenville mission, industrial and military developments, and how people adjusted to some intrusions and not to others.

Download or read book Lions or Jellyfish written by Raymond B. Blake and published by University of Toronto Press. This book was released on 2015-07-27 with total page 442 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Asked in 2010 about his pugnacious approach to federal-provincial relations, Newfoundland premier Danny Williams declared “I would rather live one more day as a lion than ten years a jellyfish.” He was only the latest in a long line of Newfoundland premiers who have fought for that province’s interests on the national stage. From Joey Smallwood and the conflict over Term 29 of the Act of Union to Williams and his much-publicized clashes with Paul Martin and Stephen Harper, Newfoundland and Labrador’s politicians have often expressed a determination to move beyond a legacy of colonialism and assert greater control over the province’s own affairs. Lions or Jellyfish? examines the history of these federal-provincial clashes with both clarity and wit. Written by a noted expert on Newfoundland politics and intergovernmental affairs in Canada, this book studies a vital but frequently overlooked aspect of modern Canadian federalism.

Download or read book Moved by the State written by Tina Loo and published by UBC Press. This book was released on 2019-06-01 with total page 296 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From the 1950s to the 1970s, the Canadian government relocated people living in rural and urban communities, often against their will, in order to alleviate the all-too-common lack of social services and economic opportunities. Moved by the State offers a completely new interpretation of this undertaking, focusing on the bureaucrats and academics who designed and implemented these relocations – and on the larger development project they were pursuing. Tina Loo’s finely crafted history reveals the optimistic belief underpinning postwar relocations: the power of the interventionist state to do good.

Book excerpt: For twelve generations, the inhabitants of a remote island in Newfoundland have lived and died together. Now, in the second decade of the 21st century, they are facing resettlement. They have each been offered a generous compensation package to leave the island for good. There’s just one proviso: everyone must go. Gradually, all of the residents surrender to the inevitable. All of the residents, that is, but one: old Moses Sweetland. Motivated in part by a sense of history and belonging, and concerned that his somewhat eccentric great-nephew will wilt on the mainland, Moses resists the coercion of family and friends in order to hold onto the only place he’s ever called home. As his options dwindle, Moses Sweetland concocts a scheme to remain the island’s only living resident. Cut off from the outside world, with the food supply diminishing and weather shredding away the last evidence of human habitation, Sweetland finds himself, finally, in the company of ghosts . . . Written with incomparable emotional power and depth, Sweetland is a story about loyalty and courage, about the human will to persist even when all hope seems lost.

Download or read book Creating a University written by Roberta Buchanan and published by . This book was released on 2019-05 with total page 368 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Creating a University is a collection of memoirs by more than 30 former faculty and staff of Memorial University -- a series of "MUNographies,"-- about personal and professional experiences working at Newfoundland's only university. It is something of a Memorial University family reunion, without a drunken uncle. In the years covered by this volume, primarily 1950 to 1990, few Memorial faculty were Canadians, let alone Newfoundlanders. These "come from aways" arrived in the middle of a post-colonial cultural renaissance, which saw a movement toward new interdisciplinary studies, and laid the groundwork for many of the programs and courses that are offered at the University today.
