CANSO WAS flourishing in 1884, when the Commercial Cable Company established a small community at Hazel Hill, just two miles outside the town. In addition to having an office and maintenance buildings, the company provided more than 20 homes for married employees, a bachelors’ residence, a clubhouse, a school and a church, as well as tennis courts and a cricket pitch.

BATTLE HARBOUR, a restored village on an island off the southeast coast of Labrador, was home to a major cod and seal fishery operation, and a thriving base for commercial trade. Beginning in the 1770s, Newfoundland fishing schooners considered the coastal community their primary port of call. In its heyday, the island community of 300 had its own school, a church and, at one point, a hospital. The Newfoundland Ranger Force had a detachment, and the Canadian Marconi Company built two wireless towers there. The community’s development was unparalleled along the Labrador coast.

The Bluenose Coastal Action Foundation (BCAF), formerly the Bluenose Atlantic Coastal Action Program, was incorporated in December 1993 as part of the federal green plan to take remedial action for Atlantic Canadian harbours. The program was conceived to restore human-impacted coastal environments so they can continue to sustain coastal communities.
