’ Pioneer Concept Seen
In North Development
By DON ATTFIELD
OTTAWA (CP)—A new division of the northern affairs depart- ment represents the launching of a pioneer concept in northern de- velopment. r
The deputy minister of north- erm affairs Gordon — told the Commons resou com- mittee last week it has been named the industrial division “for want of a better name.”
“It is designed to develop local areas of the north such as the Ungava region ofnorthern Que- bec,” he said. The area had rep- resented one of the department's biggest relief problems.
Don Snowden, 31-year-old de-
“votee to the cause of Eskimo
betterment, is acting division
head. FISHERIES PROJECT
A major project is te establish char fisheries at the Eskimo vil- lages of Port Burwell, at the northeast tip of Ungava Bay, and George River, at the bay’s lower end.
Expected to go into operation this summer, they will be the first Eskimo-operated co - opera- tives of the Canadian north.
This is the first time northern affairs has undertaken to ex- amine all the interwinding fea- tures and problems of a whole region and tried to devise a 'ong- term,program for its develop- ment. ®
The industrial division’s job was te introduce the long-range view into northern administra- tion.
When Mr. Snowden last month led a party inte Prt Burwell’ to put the division’s proposal to the village’s 21 remaining Eskimos, the northern affairs men found the natives eating their last day's supply of seal meat. Results could have been tragic had the party not chanced te make the visit at that time.
The Eskimos there, as in George River, agreed to try the plan.
It may save the communities from extinction. More and more, Eskimos are being attracted to employment such as at Hopes Advance Bay on the west side of Ungave where mineral develop- ment is under way.
Both villages now have applied for loans to the government's Es- kimo loan fund to buy freezers aad other fishery equipment, to be moved in by boat in early July if ice conditions: permit.
When the ahnual six-week char run begins around mid-July, it is hoped the Ungava Eskimos will be helping supply an almost big demand for the fish, a delicacy found only in Arctic waters.
