Makkovik

Makkovik (Inuit: ''Maquuvik'')〔Issenman, Betty. ''Sinews of Survival: The living legacy of Inuit clothing''. UBC Press, 1997. pp252-254〕 is a town in Labrador in eastern Canada. It had a population of 361 persons in 2011. The main industry is fishing (snow crab) and there is a fishing cooperative.
==History==
Settled by Torsten Kverna Andersen and his wife Mary Ann Thomas who set up a trading post there in 1860, the population gradually increased over the next three decades as European settlers and Inuit established roots in the community, though this territory since time immemorial was used by Inuit. Colonization was assured in 1896 when the Moravian Church established a mission station and residential school there. Both the mission and school were destroyed by a fire in 1948 but the economy was instilled in the 1950s by two notable events. First was the forceful resettlement to Makkovik of 150 Inuit residents of the northern communities of Nutak and Hebron. Second was the establishment nearby of a radar warning station by the United States government.
The population is mainly composed of residents of mixed Norwegian and Inuit heritage.
