sharing arrangements with Farocan Inc. that still exist today.
The recent experience in the fishery has been very positive.
The shrimp fishery generates between $2.5-million and $3-million
annually in revenue proceeds, employment income, and other
accrued benefits to Nunavik.
Makivik Corporation has invested much of the revenue from
the fishery back into the fishery and into other employment creating
projects in Nunavik. Employment has remained steady over
recent years and we have continued annual training of 12 crewmembers
per year. We have fishermen that have been with the
operating companies for many years.
During the 1980s, Makivik, through its wholly owned subsidiary,
Seaku Fisheries, carried out a great deal of research and
development work towards the establishment of a small vessel
fishery for Nunavik. These included projects in and around Killiniq
and the development of a fishery for scallop in some communities.
These projects were coordinated through Makivik’s Montreal
office with both Marc Allard and Dave Gillis. Investments by
Makivik Corporation continue to be made in the industry and in
Nunavik, with recent projects to revitalize the seal industry with
seal oil, the fur program, caribou projects and some other smaller
developments.
We continue to try to develop into the ground fish with turbot,
and we will continue to attempt to develop possible fisheries
in and around Nunavik, Seaku Fisheries has been rolled into what
is now the Fisheries Division of Makivik Corporation.
Where they are today
Neil Greig and Marc Allard are employed in Makivik’s Fisheries
Division, working on various projects. Tikile Kleist works as the
Assistant to Makivik’s V-P for Economic Development.
Greg Fisk works with the state government in Alaska. Barry
Jones went on to become a senior advisor in New Brunswick until
his retirement from there to become a farmer and consultant. Dave
Gillis continued to work for Makivik in Montreal until he moved to
PEI, where he works as a scientific advisor with DFO and is now
based in Ottawa.
Makivik would like to thank those who have been involved
in the fisheries projects from the beginning and who also continue
to struggle for developments in this industry — from on land
and on the water.
