NEWFOUNDLAND |
The island of Nfld. is Canada's most easterly province. The province also consists of Labrador which is north of the island. Labrador is much larger than the island and is mostly wilderness area. Northern Labrador has no forests, just mountains rising from the sea. Much of the island (and southern part of Labrador) is covered with thick forests and swift-flowing rivers.

Gros Morne National Park Newfoundland had rich fishing grounds nearby, but now there are fewer fish to catch due to overfishing of the Grand Banks.
