Profils socioéconomiques et perspectives de développement de sept petites communautés de la Côte-Nord

The author was tasked to develop a socio-economic profile of the seven Lower North Shore communities (Rivière-Pentecôte, Baie-Johan-Beetz, Harrington Harbour, Aylmer Sound, Mutton Bay, Vieux-Fort and Rivière-Saint-Paul) to determine their development prospects, and to estimate the capacity of these communities to finance the necessary infrastructure. The author found that the seven communities were demographically shrinking and face serious economic survival problems. He concludes that none of them are viable without sustained and repeated government intervention.
