Copes P. and Steed G. (1974) Regional policy and settlement strategy: Constraints and contradictions in Newfoundland's experience, Reg. Studies 9, 93–110. The 'sixties, in Canada, were a period of active experimentation with policy formulation and planning for regional development. The problem of delineating and reconciling intra- and inter-governmental responsibilities proved most vexing. The potential impact was particularly important to Newfoundland, which suffered from a weak environmental basis for its settlement geography and great economic disparities relative to mainland Canada. The paper examines the varying emphasis on population migration in the changing settlement strategy of Newfoundland. The real economic constraints on regional development are analysed and conclusions for a more effective growth centre strategy involving sponsored outmigration are delineated.
