Tableau d’honneur de la Faculté des études supérieures et postdoctorales, 2008-2009 / La morue des bancs de Terre-Neuve (Canada) a dès le XVIe siècle attitré les Européens en Amérique, bien que ce ne soit qu’au début du siècle suivant qu’on assiste à l’installation de colonies permanentes, comme celle de Ferryland fondée par les Anglais (1621-1696). L’analyse des macro-restes végétaux (incluant les charbons de bois) prélevés lors des fouilles archéologiques effectuées sur ce site a permis de mieux comprendre les interrelations entre les habitants et leur environnement. Leur alimentation était composée d’une grande variété de fruits sauvages indigènes ainsi que de céréales, de pois, de fines herbes et de fruits séchés d’origine étrangère. On ne sait pas si l’agriculture était surtout pratiquée sur place ou si les denrées étaient principalement importées. Les habitants auraient également utilisé les ressources végétales (bois, branches de conifères, sphaigne) pour la construction et le chauffage. En outre, les activités menées par les habitants auraient pu faciliter l’introduction de nombreuses mauvaises herbes d’origine étrangère. / The rich cod stocks of Newfoundland’s Grand Banks (Canada) attracted Europeans to the Americas from the sixteenth century onwards. However, the establishment of permanent colonies like that of Ferryland, founded by the English (1621-1696), date to the seventeenth century. The analysis of macro botanical remains (including wood charcoal) from this archaeological site shed light on the relationships between settlers and their environment. Their diet included a great variety of native wild berries as well as cereals, peas, herbs and dried fruits of European origin. However, we can not tell if this food grew mostly on or around the site or was imported. Settlers also used other plant resources (wood, conifer twigs, peat moss) for building and heating. Also, the activities of the settlers appear to have facilitated the introduction of many non-native weeds.

The intent of this study is to determine if the process of creative destruction is underway in a rural community located in Newfoundland and Labrador and to identify why this development sequence has or has not occurred. Three objectives underlie this study. The first is to determine at what stage Ferryland is situated in the Model of Creative Destruction. The second is to explain the community’s current stage in the model. The third objective is to provide recommendations for this community on its future development potential. These objectives were fulfilled through data collection that included: participant observation, content analysis of newspapers, and a review of relevant documents, key informant interviews, and resident and visitor surveys. This mixed method study concluded that the community of Ferryland is in the stage of advanced commodification in Mitchell’s (2009) Model of Creative Destruction. Three reasons are identified for its current state. First, the community lacks a tourism champion. Secondly, human capital shortage in Ferryland has created a lack of workers. Lastly, the actions of local stakeholders are not driven solely by the motivations outlined by Mitchell (2009). They are also underlain by the desire for pleasure; a motivation that does not appear to have encouraged fast-paced development. Furthermore, Ferryland is a community on a much smaller scale, which may have lessened perceived impacts and scale of development. Based on these conclusions, it is recommended that the Ferryland Tourism Committee creates a long-term plan for tourism that incorporates opinions of local residents.
