Managing the fiscal linkage: Reinvesting fishery profits for development

Abstract

Canada's North is a peripheral area. Extractive industry is typically envisaged as path to regional development. This may prove true but not through the emergence of forward and backward linkages and other ‘spread’ effects in the way usually anticipated. The Northern Coalition Corporation is an alliance of Indigenous fisheries‐based enterprises in Canada's Eastern Arctic and Labrador. While fish is an important export, it is the reinvestment of profits from this staple in other activities which is helping to change the current pattern of path dependence and is an important driver of change. This paper provides a number of examples of this process and evidence of the ways in which Northern Indigenous community‐focused organizations in the region are helping extract themselves from their marginality. El norte de Canadá es una zona periférica. La industria extractiva suele considerarse una vía para el desarrollo regional. Esto puede resultar cierto, pero no por la aparición de enlaces hacia delante y hacia atrás y otros efectos de ‘propagación’ de la manera esperada normalmente. La Northern Coalition Corporation es una alianza de empresas pesqueras indígenas del Ártico Oriental y el Labrador canadienses. Aunque el pescado es un importante producto de exportación, la reinversión de los beneficios de este alimento básico en otras actividades es lo que está ayudando a cambiar el actual modelo de dependencia de la trayectoria y es un importante impulsor de cambio. Este artículo ofrece una serie de ejemplos de este proceso y pruebas de las formas en que las organizaciones centradas en la comunidad indígena del norte de la región están ayudando a que salgan de su marginalidad. カナダの北部は周辺地域である。採取産業は地域開発への道と想定されることが多い。これは真実であるかもしれないが、前方連関と後方連関の出現や、通常予想されるその他の「拡散」効果によって真実であると証明されるのではない。Northern Coalition Corporationは、カナダ東部の北極圏およびラブラドール地方の先住民漁業をベースとする企業連合である。魚は重要な輸出品であるが、現在の経路依存のパターンを変えるのに役立ち、変化の重要な推進力となっているのは、この主要品から得た利益を他の活動に再投資することである。本稿では、この地域の北部先住民コミュニティを中心とした組織が、自力で脱周辺化するのに助けとなっている方法のプロセスとエビデンスの多数の例を提示する。
