Indian Maiden Maple Syrup A

Abstract

In this case, students are introduced to Mary Louise Bernard, an Aboriginal tour operator in Cape Breton, Nova Scotia. Mary Louise had always thought that there was a market for a Mi’kmaw brand of maple syrup and had done some research into the feasibility of maple syrup production for her community. The project, however, had never materialized. An interaction with a tourist made her revive the idea and contemplate ways of actualizing her vision.
