History

Newfoundland and Labrador is a province of Canada that is located in the easternmost part of North America. It is the newest of Canada’s ten provinces, having joined the confederation only in 1949. The province is composed of the island of Newfoundland and a larger mainland sector, Labrador, to the northwest.

Newfoundland and Labrador has a rich history that dates back to the 16th century. The province was first discovered by the Europeans in the late 15th century, and it was named the “newfoundelande” by the explorers1. The British established a fishery in Newfoundland in the early 17th century, and the colony became a British possession in 1713. The population of Newfoundland increased during the 18th century, with a substantial number of settlers coming from southeastern Ireland as well as from England2. During the Anglo-French wars between 1793 and 1815, the English migratory fishery went into a terminal decline, while the fishery carried on by a growing number of residents expanded significantly. In 1824-25, Newfoundland was granted official colonial status, with a civil governor. Representative government was established in 1832 with the election of the first House of Assembly. Responsible government, in which the executive administration was drawn from and answerable to elected legislators, was instituted in 1855.

Newfoundland and Labrador made a significant contribution to the Allied effort during WW I and WW II by raising a regiment that served in Europe with distinction. The financial cost, however, was considerable, and the colony entered the economically difficult postwar period with a large public debt. During World War II, there was a great influx of Canadian and U.S. military personnel, and large bases were constructed at St. John’s, Argentia, Gander, Stephenville, and Goose Bay.

Population

Newfoundland and Labrador has a population of approximately 510,550 people as of 20211. The population of Newfoundland increased during the 18th century, with a substantial number of settlers coming from southeastern Ireland as well as from England.

Economy

The economy of Newfoundland and Labrador has been heavily dependent on the fishing industry for much of its history. The salt-cod fishery was a mainstay of the province’s economy throughout the 19th century3. The wartime prosperity of the early 1800s resulted in a near doubling of Newfoundland and Labrador’s population, which jumped from 21,975 in 1805 to 40,568 in 1815. The colony’s fish exports also increased accordingly.

In the late 19th century, the major initiative was the construction of a trans-island railway that, it was hoped, would stimulate the development of land-based industries. The results were limited. Mining did become increasingly important, however, and by the turn of the 20th century, a forest industry was well established. A newsprint mill opened at Grand Falls in 1902. Its name was officially changed to Newfoundland and Labrador in 2001.
