Diamond tourism is an experience that is currently being developed in Yellowknife, Northwest Territories, Canada. Ideally, diamond tourism engages tourists in an educational experience about the diamond mining process, starting with extraction of the rough diamond through to the cutting, the polishing, and, finally, the purchasing stage. Diamond tourism has arisen as a fortuitous possibility at a time when the tourism industry in Northwest Territories has faced a variety of setbacks related primarily to events with their genesis outside the region. The 9/11th terrorist attacks and the SARS crisis had a negative impact on the previously growing aurora viewing tourism sector. Diamond tourism is seen as a possible means of diversifying the troubled tourism industry in the Northwest Territories. This thesis examines the context of the development of diamond tourism in the Northwest Territories and explores its potential through the views of stakeholders. The thesis reports on research that used focus groups and interviews to examine stakeholder perceptions of constraints and opportunities of diamond tourism in Yellowknife, NWT. This research took place in Yellowknife in the summer and fall of 2007. The thesis utilizes the methodology of grounded theory and describes the results using four themes within constraints and opportunities: cooperation, development, management, and diversification. It also considers the role of the social economy Yellowknife and economic development effort by focusing on several non-profit organizations that are influencing northern tourism development.
