Extractions: 500 years ago to present The last prehistoric people to migrate to Labrador were a race of arctic people whose descendants still populate the Labrador coast. They arrived from the north as had the earlier Palaeo-Eskimos, and probably found the land devoid of humans and teeming with game. These people were different from their Palaeo-Eskimo predecessors, however, for they crossed to Labrador in large skin boats called umiaks, and much lighter and more mobile kayaks, and brought with them dogs and dog sleds. In contrast to the Palaeo-Eskimos, they regularly hunted white whales ( figure ), although sea mammals and birds, fish, and land mammals were also hunted as in times past. A trend to ever-larger house forms began perhaps around the mid-seventeenth century. Originally living in villages of small oval houses ( figure ), the people began to live in multi-family houses until, by the mid-eighteenth century, they were, living in large rectangular dwellings, some as large as fifteen by nine metres. This change in house forms coincided with a slight worsening of the climate and the coming of Europeans to the Labrador coast. Both have been used to explain the shift in Inuit house styles. One hypothesis holds that the weather and European whalers combined to deplete whale populations, thus leaving the Inuit to subsist on seals and other smaller game. Sharing became important for group survival, which would be much more efficient in communal houses. Another theory is that these large households grew up around "great men" who had achieved their high status as a result of wealth acquired in trading ventures with Europeans. The truth may lie somewhere between the two.

It is an exciting alternative form of education. In reality it is the most natural form of education. Long before there ever were schools everything children learned they learned with their home as their base. If you presently are, or thinking in the future of, home schooling your children in Newfoundland or Labrador, and you're looking for information, or a way to connect with other home schooling families in Newfoundland or Labrador, you've come to the right place on the web.

Extractions: Newfoundland and Canada: 1864-1949 Introduction Whether Newfoundland and Labrador should remain as an independent political entity, or join the federation of the other British North American colonies, was an issue from 1864 to 1949. In 1864, Newfoundland delegates attended the Quebec Conference and signed the resolutions which became of foundation of the 1867 British North America Act. But it was not until over 80 years later, in 1949, that Newfoundland became a Canadian province. Active debate in the colony during the 1860s culminated in the hard-fought "confederation election" of 1869, won by the anti-confederates in a landslide victory. William V. Whiteway, ca. early 1900s.

Extractions: Indexes Newfoundland Newspapers on the Web It is hoped that the 240 newspapers listed include all of those published or possibly published in Newfoundland and Labrador from the beginning of printing to 1996. Also included are a few newspapers published on the Mainland for the Newfoundland audience. This listing details the major newspaper holdings of libraries and archives in the province and, in a few cases, unique titles or back files located elsewhere. Most of the information about the newspapers comes from the newspapers themselves. Special editions marking the paper's important anniversaries often provide valuable information about its history as do obituaries published on the death of the editor or publisher. References in archival sources, directories and newspapers of the time have led to the discovery of over sixty papers which apparently have no remaining issues in existence. These are included in this listing for historical purposes. The user will note many gaps in information about certain titles. This is partly caused by the fact that the back files of these are incomplete. Another reason is that, until recently, many papers did not reveal the identity of their editor or proprietor on the masthead.

Extractions: Nathan Bliss Is it supposed to be a stylised Union Jack? It certainly looks as though that might have been an influence, but there is no mention of it in the description of the flag in "Symbols of Canada", which has: "The white symbolises snow and ice; blue, the sea; red, human effort; and gold, confidence in the future. The two red triangles on the right stand for the mainland and island parts of the province, and the golden arrow represents hope for the future. The image of the trident on the flag emphasises Newfoundland and Labrador's continued dependence on fishing and the sea. When the flag is hung as a banner, the arrow assumes the aspect of a sword, a reminder of the sacrifices made in war."

Extractions: Newfoundland, often called "the Rock," is a large island off the east coast of Canada. The province of Newfoundland also includes Labrador, an area on the mainland. The province has had astronomically high unemployment ever since the cod fisheries were shut down in 1992. Overfishing and climatic change have been blamed for the absence of cod in a part of the ocean that used to be teeming with them. Brian Tobin, a past premier, used to be the federal Minister of Fisheries; he was the most prominent Canadian involved in Canada's seizure of a Spanish fishing trawler in 1995.
