“…Layering, the second, involves “changes in the composition of a firm (or non‐firm) ecosystem resulting from firms’ entry, exit, and survival” (Steen and Karlsen , 135). It is undertaken by entrepreneurs, whose innovations promote cluster development, thereby renewing existing paths or creating new ones (Martin ; Salamonsen ). Conversion, the third, introduces new technology, business organization, or activity in existing firms that serve new markets (Martin ; Steen and Karlsen ).…”

“…Peripheral regions experience development constraints that may compromise their resilience in the event of external shock. Isolation, capital insufficiency, and occupational lock‐in are among the challenges facing resource‐dependent places (Petrzelka et al ; Carson and Carson ; Salamonsen ; Isaksen and Jakobsen ). These influences may hinder path creation, resulting in out‐migration and economic decline.…”

In-migrants' externally accumulated capital may influence path creation. Newcomer and returnee proprietors in Trinity use recombination, layering, and conversion to augment an existing branching innovating tourism trajectory.Civic-minded in-migrants helped create the path; their presence may be a precursor to private investment.Insufficient social, human, and economic capital may prevent economic transition in resource-dependent regions. Attraction of in-migrants with new perspectives and financial means may overcome this constraint and facilitate path creation in alternative industries. This paper seeks to determine if in-migrant proprietors initiate, or augment, cultural heritage tourism in transitioning rural regions. Trinity, Newfoundland and Labrador, is the setting for this study. Located on the Bonavista Peninsula, this former mercantile centre was once a hub in the historic Atlantic cod fishery, and today is one of the province's premier tourist destinations. To ascertain in-migrants' role in this transition, we contacted members of the business community and posed questions to reveal their characteristics, proprietorship routes, and tourism activities. Using a critical realism perspective, we identify trends (i.e., demi-regularities) in the information gathered, compare these empirical regularities to extant literature (i.e., abduction), and draw on documentation, and key informant interviews, to identify responsible conditions and generative mechanisms (i.e., retroduction). We find that counterurbanite proprietors are enhancing, rather than driving, an existing tourism trajectory, a situation we attribute to the earlier actions of civic-minded incomers, and local residents.

“…Change is believed to happen only very slowly and mainly in relation to existing structures and patterns of interaction which are central to the performance and existing functioning of the system. For more radical change and transformation, strong exogenous influence may be necessary, such as an external shock (Salamonsen, 2015;Simmie and Martin, 2010) or a policy intervention (Aldrich and Martinez, 2001).…”
