The night and day of how to develop tourism in Northern Eastern Canada.

Tourism Nunatsiavut [parks Canada] decides to spend 250 grand on a fact finding trip to the tropics.

Next door Nunavik have an entirely different and pragmatic approach. Leaving aside the 3 million dollars invested, Nunavik send people to similar climates to theirs, in northern areas, to lean from established tourism enterprises.
Plus they are training people in the communities.

Night and day.

Oh, and an anomaly but non the less welcome, here is a timely press release on what the President of Nunatsiavut thinks of the budget this week.
