Book excerpt: Declining birth rates and an aging population will pose a challenge in sustaining economic growth in the province of Newfoundland and Labrador, as in most provinces in Canada and OECD countries. Demographic challenges are particularly acute in rural regions.

This strength comes from the ability of rural people to self-organize" (Reimer and Apedaile, 2000). Community economic development (CED) has been described as "people organizing themselves to take action in the community where they live to create economic opportunities on a sustainable basis" (Goldenberg, 2008).
