	Newfoundland - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Newfoundland (French: Terre-Neuve; Irish: Talamh an Éisc; Latin: Terra Nova) is a large island off the northeast coast of North America, and the most populous part of the Canadian province of Newfoundland and Labrador.
		Newfoundland is separated from the Labrador Peninsula by the Strait of Belle Isle and from Cape Breton Island by the Cabot Strait.
		Newfoundland also demonstrates a separate and distinct democratic practice emphasizing the individual member over the party, has had a unique experience with institutionalized religion in the Canadian context and appears to employ cultural mores in day-to-day interaction markedly different from the rest of Canada provided one is paying close attention.

	Windsurfing Newfoundland on Wetdawg.com
		Newfoundland, for those who don't know and I suspect that even includes some Canadians, is located off the East Coast of Canada.
		I was sure Newfoundland was a giant rock with little to photograph and even less to experience, except, perhaps, the cold.
		Apparently, a dozen or so years ago, there was a healthy community of a couple hundred windsurfers in the area, with weekly regattas in the nearby "ponds." Unfortunately, like the rest of the windsurf world, that number slowly dwindled with so-called advances and prices of technical equipment that emerged in the early nineties.

	Music: Newfoundland and Labrador Heritage
		Newfoundland's "traditional music" was often passed through generations by word of mouth.

		The phonograph, which was used in Newfoundland since the 1890s, and later radio broadcasting, which grew quickly from its early beginnings in 1921, introduced forms of music that were being created in other parts of the world.

		Twice since the Dominion of Canada was established in 1867, Newfoundland had turned down confederation; from 1895 to 1946 it had been a dead issue.
		Newfoundlanders had gone their independent way ever since their forebears had sailed after Cabot to carve the original British colony out of the island's barrens and rock.
		But Newfoundland can still carry on her strange educational system by which the government supports a separate school system for each major denomination (Church of England, Roman Catholic, United Church, Salvation Army).
