	Union between Newfoundland and Canada, 1949
		It remained a separate country and although it considered joining Canada on several different occasions, there was little public debate on the issue until 1947.
		What was at issue was the future of a country; simply put, the question was whether the people were willing to trade their status as a self-governing dominion (the constitutional equal to Canada) for becoming one of the ten provinces of Canada.
		What is true, however, is that the issue of union between Newfoundland and Canada divided communities and families, and after two bitter referenda, the people opted by a slight margin to join Canada because they believed that it offered their best chance of prosperity in the postwar world.
