'''McCallum''' is a [[Local service district (Newfoundland and Labrador)|local service district]] and [[designated place]] in the [[Provinces and territories of Canada|Canadian province]] of [[Newfoundland and Labrador]]. McCallum is located on the [[Connaigre Peninsula|southern coast]] of the island of [[Newfoundland (island)|Newfoundland]].<ref>{{cite web |url=https://www.cbc.ca/nl/features/mccallum/ |title=McCallum |website=cbc.ca |access-date=January 9, 2022}}</ref> It is accessible only by boat or by air, and in appearance and way of life is thought by some to be as close to a pre-20th century community as may be found. McCallum lies in an enclosed harbour and is sheltered between two hills. The community survives primarily on the fishery. [[Whaling]] was also a major industry in the late 19th century. The [[Government of Newfoundland and Labrador|provincial government]] runs a ferry service to McCallum from the nearby town of [[Hermitage-Sandyville|Hermitage]], about an hour and a half away by boat, where the nearest road is located.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/newfoundland-labrador/ferry-contract-south-coast-newfoundland-la-poile-1.4981808|title=Isolated towns fear new ferry contract will be the same old boat|website=CBC News|date=Jan 17, 2019 |first=Bernice|last=Hillier|access-date=Oct 17, 2020}}</ref><ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/newfoundland-labrador/mccallum-votes-on-resettlement-it-s-a-dying-community-1.3095740|title=McCallum votes on resettlement: 'It's a dying community'|website=CBC News|date=Jun 1, 2015 |access-date=Oct 17, 2020 }}</ref><ref>{{cite web |title=N.L. ferries made 4,100 trips with no passengers last year | website=CBC | date=2020-05-15 | url=https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/newfoundland-labrador/ferry-newfoundland-no-passengers-cuts-1.5571881 | access-date=2020-12-17}}</ref> The town had a population of 45 in the [[Canada 2021 Census|2021 Census]].

== History ==
McCallum takes its name from Sir [[Henry Edward McCallum]], [[Lieutenant-Governors of Newfoundland and Labrador|Colonial Governor of Newfoundland and Labrador]] from 1899 to 1901.

The waters around McCallum have been fished since at least the 16th century, however no permanent settlement existed until after the [[Seven Years' War]], after 1816. When the French gained possession of the Islands of [[Saint Pierre and Miquelon]], the English on the Islands were forced to find new homes, and looked just north, to Newfoundland's southern coast.

It was during this time that [[Captain James Cook]] was appointed marine surveyor of [[Colony of Newfoundland|Newfoundland]], and mapped out in detail the coastline and waters around McCallum to create a boundary for where the French were still allowed to fish.

Aside from the traditional fishery, there is also a [[lobster fishing|lobster fishery]].<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/newfoundland-labrador/mccallum-south-coast-inshore-fishery-lobster-1.4143716|title=Land & Sea: A 1989 visit to McCallum and Great Jarvis|publisher=CBC News|date=Jun 4, 2017|first=Angela|last=Antle|access-date=Oct 17, 2020 }}</ref>

In recent years there has also been [[aquaculture]] in and around the community of McCallum.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/newfoundland-labrador/cold-ocean-salmon-isa-mccallum-1.5647738|title=Fish removal planned as disease detected in McCallum salmon cages|publisher=CBC News|date=Jul 13, 2020 |access-date=Nov 15, 2020 }}</ref> The lifeblood of McCallum revolves around the sea.

===Notes===
Other First Nations lands can be found at [[list of Cree and Naskapi territories in Quebec]] and [[Inuit]] lands at [[list of northern villages and Inuit reserved lands in Quebec]].

In Quebec, the ''Indian Act'' applies only to the First Nations of the southern part of the province, so Indian reserves are only found in the south. The [[Minister of Crown–Indigenous Relations]] assigns 34 tracts of land as Indian reserves and settlements under the ''Indian Act'':

'''Pilley's Island''' is a [[town]] located on the island of the same name in the [[Canada|Canadian province]] of [[Newfoundland and Labrador]]. It is located in [[Division No. 8, Newfoundland and Labrador]].

== History ==
The island is known to have been frequented by [[Dorset Eskimo]] and the [[Beothuk]].

In 1880, James P. Howley "obtained possession of the mummified body of a Red Indian boy, found in Dark Tickle near Pilley’s Island" from a Jabez Tilley of Sops Arm; the body was exhibited in St. John's and then donated to the St. John’s Museum.<ref>{{Cite journal|last=Webb|first=Jeff A.|date=May 2017|title=A Few Fabulous Fragments: Historical Methods in James P. Howley's The Beothucks|journal=Social History|volume=50|issue=101|pages=93}}</ref>

Distant from the best fishing grounds further out the Bay, no settlement was recorded at Pilley's Island until the opening of a [[pyrite]] mine in 1887. Some early boat-building had taken place at Spencer's Dock, to the west of Pilley's Island Harbour. The island is thought to have been named for one of the seasonal visitors. While some have been known to spell it as "Pelley's Island", this is incorrect.

Local tradition says that Richard Rideout was the first [[Europe]]an settler at Pilley’s Island.<ref name=":0" /> Rideout is buried in the Pilley’s Island Salvation Army Cemetery, and his grave marker reads, “Richard RIDEOUT beloved husband of Eliza RIDEOUT died Aug. 25, 1928 aged 88 years.”<ref name=":0" /> This is supported by Seary’s ''Family Names of the Island of Newfoundland'' which states “Richard (1840-1928), from England, came to Newfoundland in 1870 and was the first settler of PIlley’s Island.”<ref>{{Cite book|last1=Seary|first1=ER|title=Family Names of the Island of Newfoundland.|last2=Lynch|first2=Sheila|publisher=McGill-Queen’s University Press|year=1998|editor-last=Kirwin|editor-first=William|location=Kingston|pages=444}}</ref> The earliest families on Pilley's Island came from [[Twillingate, Newfoundland and Labrador|Twillingate]], [[Change Islands]] and [[Herring Neck, Newfoundland and Labrador|Herring Neck]]. Some of these families had earlier come to the western part of the Bay to work a copper mine at [[Tilt Cove, Newfoundland and Labrador|Tilt Cove]].
{{stack|[[File:Pilley's Island mine 2012.jpg|thumb|left|Pilley's Island mine in summer 2012]]}}
In the 1860s, Captain Philip Cleary staked a mineral claim at [[Bumblebee Bight]], hoping to develop a copper mine, though the island's orebody was chiefly pyrite. In 1885, Maine and Lewis Mills of New Brunswick bought the claim and the next year the company began mining. Tradition says that prior to the opening of the mine there were at least two families living on the island; however, church records have no record of births, deaths or marriages at Pilley's Island until 1887. By 1891, when the mine was in full production, the population was 411.

In 1889, the mine was acquired by the Pyrites Company Ltd. of England. Under new management, the mine was modernized, becoming the first [[Colony of Newfoundland|Newfoundland]] mine to be equipped with electric lights, among other improvements.<ref name=":0">{{cite web|last=Jarvis|first=Dale Gilbert|date=April 2018|title=An Architectural History of the Pilley's Island United (Methodist) Church|url=https://www.mun.ca/ich/resources/Occasional_Paper_10_Web.pdf|website=Mun.ca}}</ref> With the mine's prosperity, the community developed into the area's major employment and service center, with a hotel, courthouse, six merchant establishments, and the area's only hospital, set up by Sir [[Wilfred Grenfell]].<ref>{{cite web|title=Pilleys Island History Greenbayfeed.com|url=http://greenbayfeed.com/town-profiles/green-bay-south/pilleys-island/|website=Greenbayfeed.com}}</ref>

In 1891 it was reported,<blockquote>The Pilley’s Island mine has recently been taken over by a new company, and will be worked more extensively than ever during this season. The ore which it yields, iron pyrites, is more abundant than formerly and preparations are being made for larger shipments this year.<ref>{{Cite news|date=20 June 1891|title=Activity in Mining|work=Twillingate Sun}}</ref></blockquote>Forest fires in 1896 destroyed the Court House, the Methodist Church and the Salvation Army Barracks; thirty-five families were rendered homeless.<ref>{{Cite news|date=1896-06-29|title=Fires at Pilley's Island|page=4|work=Evening Telegram}}</ref>

In 1899, the mine went into trusteeship. Three years later, it was reopened by the Newfoundland Exploration Syndicate. The mine closed permanently in 1908 when it was discovered that a large fault had displaced the main ore body. Though the community lost its major employer, the town survived as a fishing and lumbering community. Its population, which was 699 in 1901, declined to 405 by 1945.

The first clergyman to serve Pilley's Island was [[Methodist]] James Pincock and, following the fires of 1896, the Methodists built their second church. Later the [[Salvation Army]], [[Church of England]] and [[Roman Catholic Church]] built churches. After the mine closed, the Church of England disappeared and only a few Roman Catholics remained. The Methodist and Roman Catholic churches operated schools, and after 1903 the Salvation Army also operated one. The [[United Church]] and Salvation Army continued to operate separate schools until 1960. In 1967, high school students began to attend the Integrated Central High School at [[Roberts Arm]]. In 1977, [[Dorset Collegiate]] was opened on Pilley's Island, near the causeway to [[Triton, Newfoundland and Labrador|Triton]].

In addition to the causeway across [[Flat Rock Tickle]] to the mainland, a second causeway has connected Pilley's and [[Triton, Newfoundland and Labrador|Triton Island]] since 1968. A port in Pilley's Island services the [[Newfoundland outport|isolated outport]] of Long Island ([[Lushes Bight-Beaumont-Beaumont North]]).<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/newfoundland-labrador/potential-causeway-no-brainer-1.4385283|title=Causeway to Long Island a 'no-brainer,' mayor say|date=Nov 3, 2017|publisher=CBC News|accessdate=Oct 29, 2020}}</ref><ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/newfoundland-labrador/ferry-services-cut-reaction-1.5576750 |title=Cut ferry operation costs, not services, says transportation committee head|date=May 20, 2020|publisher=CBC News|accessdate=Oct 29, 2020}}</ref><ref>{{cite web |title=N.L. ferries made 4,100 trips with no passengers last year | website=CBC | date=2020-05-15 | url=https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/newfoundland-labrador/ferry-newfoundland-no-passengers-cuts-1.5571881 | access-date=2020-12-17}}</ref>

In 2022, a plaque marking the designation of the Pilley's Island Methodist Church and Schoolhouse Complex as a Registered Heritage Structure was unveiled by the [[Heritage Foundation of Newfoundland and Labrador]].<ref>{{Cite web |last=Sheppard |first=Noah |title=Heritage NL, Pilley's Island Come Home Year Committee Unveiling Plaque to Mark Heritage Structures |url=https://vocm.com/2022/07/23/182930/ |access-date=2022-07-26 |website=VOCM |language=en}}</ref>

'''Wabana''' is a Canadian town and the largest, and only incorporated, community on [[Bell Island (Newfoundland and Labrador)|Bell Island]] in the province of [[Newfoundland and Labrador]].<ref>{{cite news |first=Kyle |last=Mooney |publisher=CBC News |title=Bell Island's unincorporated communities sidelined in garbage saga |date=7 August 2021 |url=https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/newfoundland-labrador/garbage-lsd-ersb-town-of-wabana-lance-cove-contract-1.6128394 }}</ref><ref>{{cite news |first=Terry |last=Roberts |date=22 August 2017 |title=Did a Newfoundland town really sell its water system? |publisher=CBC News |url=https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/newfoundland-labrador/wabana-water-dispute-1.4256929 }}</ref>

==Geography==

The town is situated on the northeast end of the island and was incorporated in 1950. Bell Island's soil contains red [[hematite]] (or iron ore); this resource was the main reason for Wabana's development.<ref>{{cite web |url=https://research.library.mun.ca/877/3/Weir_Gail.pdf |title=Pamphlet |last= Weir|first=Gail|website=research.library.mun.ca |access-date=2021-07-27}}</ref> In addition to Wabana centre, the municipality consists of three more neighbourhoods, namely West Mines to the west, The Green to the north and The Front (or Bell Island Front) to the southeast, near the ferry terminal.

==Economy==

Wabana came to prominence during the 1890s when the Butler family from [[Port de Grave, Newfoundland and Labrador|Port de Grave]] staked mining claims on the north side of the island. These were sold to the Nova Scotia Steel Company and later sold to the [[Dominion Steel Corporation]] in the early 1900s. The first mine opened in 1896 and the site of the mines was named ''Wabana'' by Thomas Cantly, an official with Nova Scotia Steel Co. – the name being [[Abenaki]] for "place where the light shines first."

The mines saw Wabana's population swell to 14,000 within a few years, the second largest community in the Dominion of Newfoundland. A hundred and one workers lost their lives over the course of Bell Island's iron ore industry.<ref>{{cite news |title=Unseen wonders: Diving pros push to reopen Bell Island mines |date=2 March 2016 |publisher=CBC News |url=https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/newfoundland-labrador/bell-island-dive-mine-quest-1.3473158 }}</ref>

A further 65 sailors on merchant ships were lost on two separate attacks by [[Nazi Germany|German]] [[U-boat]]s in the fall of 1942; further, four cargo ships for carrying iron ore to the steel mill at [[Sydney, Nova Scotia]] sunk.<ref>{{cite news |date=11 November 2014 |title=Divers visit WWII Bell Island shipwreck site to lay wreath |publisher=CBC News |url=https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/newfoundland-labrador/divers-visit-ww-ii-bell-island-shipwreck-site-to-lay-wreath-1.2831550 }}</ref><ref>{{cite news |date=25 July 2012 |title=German U-boat may be at bottom of Labrador river |publisher=CBC News |url=https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/newfoundland-labrador/german-u-boat-may-be-at-bottom-of-labrador-river-1.1164735 }}</ref>

Wabana's population declined following [[World War II]] as the underground mines began to face shortfalls in production, being forced to compete with more efficient open pit mines in [[Labrador]] and [[Minnesota]]. The parent company, [[Dominion Steel and Coal Corporation]] (DOSCO), had been in operation since 1930 and was taken over by other conglomerates in the late 1950s. The steel mill and coal mines in Nova Scotia were facing uncertain futures and their shut down was announced in 1965 (although they were subsequently nationalized).

The expected announcement of the shut down of the iron ore mines in Wabana came on April 19, 1966. Following their closure, the mines were left to flood and the population of Wabana has since steadily declined.<ref>{{cite web |url= https://www.heritage.nf.ca/articles/economy/bell-island-mines.php|title=Iron Ore Mines of Bell Island |website=www.heritage.nf.ca|access-date=2021-07-27}}</ref><ref>{{cite news |first=Malone |last=Mullin |date=15 August 2019 |title=Bell Island's water looks like 'chocolate,' and residents are fed up |publisher=CBC News |url=https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/newfoundland-labrador/bell-island-dirty-water-1.5248242 }}</ref>

'''Rencontre East''' is a small, [[outport]] community in [[Newfoundland and Labrador]], [[Canada]] located north east of [[Belleoram]], and west of [[Terrenceville]] in [[Fortune Bay]]. The population was 115 in the [[2021 Canadian census|2021 census]]. This small community is not connected to any surrounding areas by road.

Rencontre East is accessible by scheduled [[ferry]] service (MV Terra Nova) from ports in [[Pool's Cove]] (1 hour, 15 minutes) and [[Bay L'Argent]] (1 hour, 45 minutes).<ref>{{cite news |url=https://www.capebretonpost.com/opinion/columnists/touring-newfoundlands-connaigre-peninsula-21191/ |title=Touring Newfoundland's Connaigre Peninsula |date=November 17, 2016 |publisher=Saltwire Network |work=[[Cape Breton Post]] |accessdate=October 21, 2019 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20190707011610/https://www.capebretonpost.com/opinion/columnists/touring-newfoundlands-connaigre-peninsula-21191/ |archive-date=7 July 2019 |url-status=dead}}</ref><ref>{{cite web |title=N.L. ferries made 4,100 trips with no passengers last year | website=CBC | date=2020-05-15 | url=https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/newfoundland-labrador/ferry-newfoundland-no-passengers-cuts-1.5571881 | access-date=2020-12-17}}</ref> The MV Terra Nova takes 30 passengers and is passenger service only (no vehicles).

== History ==
The main industry is [[cod fishery|cod]] and [[lobster fishing]]. Rencontre East was the location of one of only a few [[molybdenum]] mines in Canada's history.<ref name="OUaM">{{cite web |url=http://www.heritage.nf.ca/articles/environment/once-upon-a-mine.pdf |title=Once Upon a Mine: Stories of Pre-Confederation Mines on the Island of Newfoundland |first=Wendy |last=Martin |publisher=The Canadian Institute of Mining and Metallurgy |accessdate=December 16, 2019}}</ref> The mine was located at Ackley City at Rencontre Lake just north of the town. The mine was closed soon after, with only two-thousand tonnes of mineral being exported.<ref name="OUaM"/>

=== Aquaculture ===
[[Aquaculture]] is an important economic driver, with the advent of [[salmon farming]].<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.dfo-mpo.gc.ca/aquaculture/ref/coast/coast-cote-eng.htm|title=Aquaculture in the Coast of Bays region, Newfoundland and Labrador|date=2016-07-06|accessdate=Oct 17, 2020|website=Fisheries And Oceans Canada }}</ref> As of July 2011, aquaculture in Rencontre East became fully operational, with more than 20 of the town's people working on the three sites.<ref>{{cite news |title=Down Memory Lane: Rencontre East |url=https://www.southerngazette.ca/community/down-memory-lane-rencontre-east-154809/ |date=October 6, 2017 |first=Allen |last=Stoodley |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20190707024349/https://www.southerngazette.ca/community/down-memory-lane-rencontre-east-154809/ |archivedate=July 7, 2019 |work=The Southern Gazette |publisher=Saltwire Network}}</ref> Combined, there are more than 2 million salmon in the sites.

== Infrastructure ==
All of the roads are dirt and [[All-terrain vehicle|ATVs]] are the main source of transportation. The community uses [[Breakwater (structure)|breakwaters]] to hold the roads in place and keep the water from washing them away.

The town has a grocery store (Judy's General Store), a volunteer [[fire department]], an all grade school (St. Stephen's)<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://www.saltwire.com/newfoundland-labrador/news/provincial/schools-adjusting-to-lower-enrolments-26293/|title=Schools adjusting to lower enrolments | SaltWire|first=Clayton|last=Hunt|website=Saltwire.com|access-date=27 January 2022}}</ref> and a community centre. There are two churches, one Anglican (St. Stephen's) and one Catholic (St. Joseph's).

St. Stephen's all-grade school has just 15 students, from kindergarten to grade 12.

== Demographics ==
In the [[2021 Canadian census|2021 Census of Population]] conducted by [[Statistics Canada]], Rencontre East had a population of {{val|115|fmt=commas}} living in {{val|46|fmt=commas}} of its {{val|75|fmt=commas}} total private dwellings, a change of {{percentage|{{#expr:115-139}}|139|1}} from its 2016 population of {{val|139|fmt=commas}}. With a land area of {{convert|2.56|km2|sqmi|abbr=on}}, it had a population density of {{Pop density|115|2.56|km2|sqmi|prec=1}} in 2021.<ref name=2021census>{{cite web | url=https://www150.statcan.gc.ca/t1/tbl1/en/tv.action?pid=9810000203&geocode=A000210 | title=Population and dwelling counts: Canada, provinces and territories, census divisions and census subdivisions (municipalities), Newfoundland and Labrador | publisher=[[Statistics Canada]] | date=February 9, 2022 | accessdate=March 15, 2022}}</ref>

'''St. Mary's''' is a [[town]] in the [[Provinces and territories of Canada|Canadian province]] of [[Newfoundland and Labrador]]. The town had a population of 313 in the [[Canada 2021 Census]].

Most of the employment in the community is from the local seafood processing plant, operating in summer months.<ref>{{cite web |url=http://www.deepatlanticsea.com/index.htm |title=Deep Atlantic Sea homepage |access-date=2010-10-13 |archive-date=2012-03-13 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20120313171727/http://www.deepatlanticsea.com/index.htm |url-status=dead }}</ref> Most plant workers receive E.I. benefits during the off season. There was briefly a fish sauce plant that used the byproduct of the main processing plant.<ref>{{cite web |last1=Muzzi |first1=Madeline |title=A Town Drowned in the Smell of Fish Sauce |url=https://www.eater.com/2019/5/23/18634704/st-marys-irish-loop-newfoundland-smell-fermenting-atlantic-seafood-sauce |website=[[Eater (website)|Eater]] |date=23 May 2019 |accessdate=23 May 2019}}</ref> The town has a Catholic church, a [[bed & breakfast]]<ref>{{cite web |url=http://www.thecladdaghinn.ca/ |title=The Claddagh Inn |accessdate=5 December 2010 |archive-date=1 April 2022 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20220401060929/https://thecladdaghinn.ca/ |url-status=dead }}</ref> (which provides the only overnight accommodations in the area), a small pub, and 2 gas stations which also serve as convenience stores.

Point La Haye Beach is a popular picnic location in summer, and is located very near an automated lighthouse and long, natural [[barachois]].
Other than this, there are little tourist attractions in the area, and most tourists are travellers of the Irish Loop Drive,<ref>{{cite web |url=http://www.theirishloop.com/ |title=The Irish Loop Drive homepage }}</ref> passing through the town.

==Climate==
St. Mary's exhibits an [[oceanic climate]] ([[Köppen Climate Classification|Köppen]] ''Cfb'') or a [[humid continental climate]] (''Dfb'') depending on the isotherm used.

'''Route 430''' is a {{convert|413|km|mi|adj=mid|-long}} paved highway that traverses the [[Great Northern Peninsula]] of [[Newfoundland (Island)|Newfoundland]] in the [[Canada|Canadian province]] of [[Newfoundland and Labrador]]. The route begins at the intersection of [[Newfoundland and Labrador Route 1|Route 1]] (The [[Trans Canada Highway]]) in [[Deer Lake, Newfoundland and Labrador|Deer Lake]] and ends in [[St. Anthony, Newfoundland and Labrador|St. Anthony]]. Officially known as the '''Great Northern Peninsula Highway''', it has been designated as the '''Viking Trail''' since it is the main auto route to [[L'Anse aux Meadows]], the only proven Viking era settlement in North America. It is the primary travel route in the Great Northern Peninsula and the only improved highway between [[Deer Lake, Newfoundland and Labrador|Deer Lake]] and [[St. Anthony, Newfoundland and Labrador|St. Anthony]]. It is the main access route to the [[Labrador]] Ferry terminal in St. Barbe.

The route passes along the western coast of [[Newfoundland (Island)|Newfoundland]] with views of the [[Gulf of St. Lawrence]] and [[Strait of Belle Isle]] to the west and the [[Long Range Mountains]] to the east. It passes through or near several towns and villages including [[Rocky Harbour, Newfoundland and Labrador|Rocky Harbour]], [[Port au Choix, Newfoundland and Labrador|Port au Choix]], and [[St. Barbe, Newfoundland and Labrador|St. Barbe]] as well as [[Gros Morne National Park]].

Route 430 is the longest provincial route on the island portion of the province that branches out from Route 1.

==Route description==

Route 430 begins at an interchange with [[Newfoundland and Labrador Route 1|Route 1]] ([[Trans-Canada Highway]], Exit 16) in [[Deer Lake, Newfoundland and Labrador|Deer Lake]] and it heads northwest to immediately cross the [[Humber River (Newfoundland and Labrador)|Humber River]] and have intersections with local roads leading to the [[Nicholsville, Newfoundland and Labrador|Nicholsville]] neighbourhood and the town of [[Reidville, Newfoundland and Labrador|Reidville]]. The highway now leaves Deer Lake and continues northwest through rural areas to have an intersection with [[Newfoundland and Labrador Route 422|Route 422]] (Cormack Road) before it begins winding its way through the [[Long Range Mountains]]. Route 430 passes through [[Jack Ladder, Newfoundland and Labrador|Jack Ladder]], [[Bonne Bay Pond, Newfoundland and Labrador|Bonne Bay Pond]], and [[Wiltondale, Newfoundland and Labrador|Wiltondale]], where it has an intersection with [[Newfoundland and Labrador Route 431|Route 431]] (Bonne Bay Road), before passing through [[Gros Morne National Park]]. The highway now exits both the National Park and the mountain range as it passes through [[Rocky Harbour, Newfoundland and Labrador|Rocky Harbour]], where it meets a local road to [[Norris Point, Newfoundland and Labrador|Norris Point]], before passing through neighbouring [[Lobster Cove, Newfoundland and Labrador|Lobster Cove]], where it passes by the [[Lobster Cove Head Lighthouse]].

The highway now passes Gros Morne National Park's [[Western Brook Pond]] trailhead before passing through [[St. Pauls, Newfoundland and Labrador|St. Pauls]] (where it crosses [[St. Paul's Bay (Newfoundland and Labrador)|St. Paul's Bay]]). Route 430 has intersections with two local roads leading to [[Cow Head, Newfoundland and Labrador|Cow Head]] before passing through [[Three Mile Rock, Newfoundland and Labrador|Three Mile Rock]], [[Parson's Pond, Newfoundland and Labrador|Parson's Pond]] (where it crosses the [[Parson's Pond River]]), [[Portland Creek, Newfoundland and Labrador|Portland Creek]] (where it crosses the creek of the same name), [[Daniel's Harbour, Newfoundland and Labrador|Daniel's Harbour]], [[Bellburns, Newfoundland and Labrador|Bellburns]], and [[River of Ponds, Newfoundland and Labrador|River of Ponds]] (where it crosses the river of the same name) before the road turns more inland. The highway now passes through [[Hawke's Bay, Newfoundland and Labrador|Hawke's Bay]] (where it crosses the [[Torrent River (Newfoundland and Labrador)|Torrent River]] and [[Big East River (Newfoundland and Labrador)|Big East River]]) to meet a local road leading to [[Port Saunders, Newfoundland and Labrador|Port Saunders]] and [[Port au Choix, Newfoundland and Labrador|Port au Choix]] before Route 430 rejoins the coastline at [[Eddies Cove West, Newfoundland and Labrador|Eddies Cove West]]. Route 430 passes through [[Barr'd Harbour, Newfoundland and Labrador|Barr'd Harbour]] and turns more inland again to pass through [[Castor River South, Newfoundland and Labrador|Castor River South]] (where it crosses the [[Castors River]]) to have intersections with local roads leading to the neighbouring settlements of [[Castor River North, Newfoundland and Labrador|Castor River North]], [[Bartlett's Harbour, Newfoundland and Labrador|Bartlett's Harbour]], [[Reefs Harbour, Newfoundland and Labrador|Reefs Harbour]], [[Shoal Cove West, Newfoundland and Labrador|Shoal Cove West]], and [[New Ferolle, Newfoundland and Labrador|New Ferolle]] before having an intersection with [[Newfoundland and Labrador Route 432|Route 432]] (Main Point Highway/Grenfell Loop). The highway begins following the coastline again as it passes through [[Plum Point, Newfoundland and Labrador|Plum Point]], where it meets a local road leading to [[Bird Cove, Newfoundland and Labrador|Bird Cove]] and [[Brig Bay, Newfoundland and Labrador|Brig Bay]], before passing through [[Blue Cove, Newfoundland and Labrador|Blue Cove]], where it meets a local road leading to [[Pond Cove, Newfoundland and Labrador|Pond Cove]]. Route 430 now has an intersection with a local road leading to [[Forrester's Point, Newfoundland and Labrador|Forrester's Point]] and [[Black Duck Cove, Great Northern Peninsula, Newfoundland and Labrador|Black Duck Cove]] before having an intersection with St. Barbe Ferry Road, which provides access to the town of [[St. Barbe, Newfoundland and Labrador|St. Barbe]] and the [[Labrador]] Ferry. The highway passes northeastward through [[Anchor Point, Newfoundland and Labrador|Anchor Point]], [[Deadman's Cove, Newfoundland and Labrador|Deadman's Cove]], [[Flower's Cove, Newfoundland and Labrador|Flower's Cove]], [[Savage Cove, Newfoundland and Labrador|Savage Cove]], [[Pines Cove, Newfoundland and Labrador|Pines Cove]], [[Green Island Cove, Newfoundland and Labrador|Green Island Cove]], and [[Green Island Brook, Newfoundland and Labrador|Green Island Brook]] before turning eastward and inland after passing through [[Eddies Cove, Newfoundland and Labrador|Eddies Cove]] and just south of [[Watt's Point Ecological Reserve]]. Route 430 now passes by [[St. Anthony Airport]], where it has another intersection with Route 432 (Main Point Highway/Grenfell Loop), before passing through [[Hare Island, Newfoundland and Labrador|Hare Island]] and having intersections with [[Newfoundland and Labrador Route 435|Route 435]] (Cook's Harbour Road) and [[Newfoundland and Labrador Route 436|Route 436]] ([[L'Anse aux Meadows]] Road). Route 430 crosses the [[Parkers River (Newfoundland and Labrador)|Parkers River]] in between these two intersections. The highway now curves to the southeast to have an intersection with a local road leading to [[St. Anthony Bight, Newfoundland and Labrador|St. Anthony Bight]], [[St. Carols, Newfoundland and Labrador|St. Carols]], and [[Great Brehat, Newfoundland and Labrador|Great Brehat]] before it enters [[St. Anthony, Newfoundland and Labrador|St. Anthony]], where Route 430 comes to an end at an intersection between West Street and Goose Cove Road just north of downtown.

'''Admirals Beach''' is a rural community located in [[Newfoundland and Labrador]], [[Canada]].

Previously spelled '''Admiral's Beach''', it is a fishing port located on the island of [[Newfoundland (island)|Newfoundland]]; specifically it is along a point of land in the southern [[Avalon Peninsula]] near [[Great Colinet Island]] fronting [[St. Mary's Bay (Newfoundland and Labrador)|St. Mary's Bay]].

The community was incorporated in January 1968.

==Geography==
Good fishing grounds and a sheltered cove attracted the first settlers to the area. The town is part of [[Division 1, Newfoundland and Labrador|Division 1]] and is bounded by St. Mary's Bay and the unorganized area [[Division No. 1, Subdivision W, Newfoundland and Labrador|Subdivision W]]. Nearby communities include [[St. Joseph's, Newfoundland and Labrador|St. Joseph's]], [[Riverhead, Newfoundland and Labrador|Riverhead]] and [[St. Mary's, Newfoundland and Labrador|St. Mary's]].

==History==
Admirals Beach was first settled in the early nineteenth century by a [[France|French]] [[admiral]]. In 1864 there were three families living there. By 1911 it had a [[Post Office]] and a population of 39. The [[community]] grew over the years until a large population came from Great Colinet Island during the resettlement programme of 1956. Its population in the [[2016 Canadian Census|2016 Census]] was 135.<ref name="census2016"/>

It is located on the [[island]] of [[Newfoundland (island)|Newfoundland]], along [[St. George's Bay (Newfoundland and Labrador)|St. George's Bay]], on the [[Port au Port Peninsula]]. The DPL consists of the fishing villages of '''Abraham's Cove''' and '''Piccadilly'''.

== Geography ==
Piccadilly Slant-Abraham's Cove is in [[Newfoundland (island)|Newfoundland]] within [[Division No. 4, Subdivision E, Newfoundland and Labrador|Subdivision E]] of [[Division No. 4, Newfoundland and Labrador|Division No. 4]].<ref name=2016census2>{{cite web | url=https://www12.statcan.gc.ca/census-recensement/2016/dp-pd/hlt-fst/pd-pl/Table.cfm?Lang=Eng&T=311&SR=1&S=87&O=A&RPP=9999&PR=10 | title=Population and dwelling counts, for Canada, provinces and territories, census divisions, census subdivisions (municipalities) and designated places, 2016 and 2011 censuses – 100% data (Newfoundland and Labrador) | publisher=[[Statistics Canada]] | date=February 7, 2018 | access-date=December 23, 2021}}</ref>

=== Communities ===
;Abraham's Cove
According to the local population, the Abraham's Cove site was first settled in the late 19th century by the Duffey family, of mixed [[Acadian]] and [[Mi'kmaq people|Mi'kmaq]] ancestry. The population kept livestock and fished for [[cod]], [[herring]], and [[lobster]]. With the increasing scarcity of commercial fish, many residents found employment in the nearby [[Ernest Harmon Air Force Base|Ernest Harmon US AFB]] in [[Stephenville, Newfoundland and Labrador|Stephenville]], which operated from 1941 to 1966, or at the provincial highways depot. Today, very few local residents still engage in [[fishing]], and many men and women seek seasonal employment elsewhere in the province or in [[Nova Scotia]].

;Piccadilly
Piccadilly has its own [[liquor]] and [[confectionery]] store, which is called Parkview. Its [[park]] is located a kilometre from Parkview. It is a beautiful place for [[camping]], the [[beach]] is sandy and a lot of people swim and go [[clamming]] on the [[shoal]]s.<ref>{{cite web | url=https://www.thewesternstar.com/news/local/new-guide-tells-the-unique-rocky-history-of-newfoundland-116163/ | title=New guide tells the unique rocky history of Newfoundland | SaltWire }}</ref> It has a great view of the bay and nature trails.

There is a wharf across from the Colliers, and marine centre, where the fishermen sell [[lobster]]s and fish. There is a church called Our Lady of Fatima where the community gathers on Sundays. In the early 1960s, Piccadilly housed the only theatre west of [[Stephenville, Newfoundland and Labrador|Stephenville]]. It was known for showing very old, [[Black and white|black and white movies]] during the winter months while warming its clientele with a wood-burning stove.

'''Simani''' (''pronounced "Sim 'n' I"'') was a [[Newfoundland and Labrador]] musical duet considered the cornerstone of traditional [[Music of Newfoundland and Labrador|Newfoundland music]]. Formed in 1977 by Bud Davidge and Sim Savory (November 29, 1946 – March 16, 2010), in [[Belleoram]], [[Fortune Bay]], their music keeps Newfoundland's unique heritage alive by putting old stories to song and by their recording of local jigs and reels. Their music is characterized by the [[Folk music|folk]]sy sound of [[Music of Newfoundland and Labrador|their native province]], including [[Celts|Celtic]], [[England|English]], and [[France|French]] influences.<ref name="gm100402">{{cite news |first=Joan |last=Sullivan |work=[[The Globe and Mail]] |title=Newfoundlander's 'little thing' was a big success |url=http://v1.theglobeandmail.com/servlet/story/LAC.20100402.OBSAVORY02ATL//TPStory/Obituaries |date=April 2, 2010 |accessdate=January 9, 2010 }}{{dead link|date=May 2018 |bot=InternetArchiveBot |fix-attempted=yes }}</ref>

It is believed that the name "Simani" is derived from someone asking Davidge who was playing that night at the local Legion, Davidge replied, "Sim and I". By the time the music began that night, the name was already set.

==History==
Davidge and Savory both knew each other growing up - Savory was in [[Belleoram]] and Davidge was in nearby [[Bay du Nord, Fortune Bay, Newfoundland and Labrador|Bay du Nord]]. Savory was a natural and gifted musician and was always playing in bands. In 1970, after living and working in [[St. John's, Newfoundland and Labrador|St. John's]] for some time, Savory moved back to Belleoram. Davidge was working with the school board at that time. A few years after that, which was a time when Savory wasn't in a band, they got together and decided to play a few tunes. One thing led to another, and in May 1977, they decided to play a gig in Belleoram at an old fisherman's lodge called The Schooner Lounge. The gig earned them about $20. Both critics and the general public enjoyed the bands so much that they decided to play more gigs. In 1981, four years after that initial performance in Belleoram, Davidge and Savory had written enough material that it was suggested the duo record an album, which they eventually did in [[Stephenville, Newfoundland and Labrador|Stephenville]].

Nearly all of Simani's recorded songs are originals, written by Davidge (who was also the vocalist for the group). Savory was a gifted musician, being a master of many instruments, as well as a very talented sound engineer. That variety of talent worked very well for Simani, and it showed in the quality of their recordings.

In a musical career that lasted 20 years, Simani were stars with major radio airplay and sold-out shows wherever they performed. Since their first recording "Saltwater Cowboys" in 1981, they have produced 12 recordings. Simani defined a sound that became predominant in many recording that were done in Newfoundland and Labrador in the 1980s. Their first few albums were recorded at Clode Sound in Stephenville and the remainder recorded at Sim's studio in Belleoram.

Simani is famous for their "Saltwater Cowboys" song. The song is about outward migration (a subject most people from Newfoundland are all too familiar with), and the effects that an outside culture has on Newfoundlanders who leave and then return home.

Simani is also well known for their Christmas mega-hit "Any Mummers Allowed In?" (commonly referred to as "The Mummer's Song"). Before Davidge and Savory produced this song, the Christmas tradition of [[Mummering]] was declining. After its release in 1984, Mummering made a return to all parts of Newfoundland.<ref name="tel071228">{{cite news |first=Steve |last=Bartlett |work=[[The Telegram]] |title=Mummers song turns 25 |url=http://www.thewesternstar.com/Entertainment/2007-12-28/article-1468009/Mummers-song-turns-25/1 |date=December 28, 2007 |accessdate=January 9, 2011}}</ref><ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.fodors.com/world/north-america/canada/newfoundland-and-labrador/experiences/news/are-mummers-allowed-in-the-newfoundland-holiday-tradition-where-disguised-visitors-drink-dance-and-swing-your-granny|title=Are Mummers Allowed in?

===Later years===
Simani gave up touring in 1997. However, Davidge and Savory still worked toward the advancement of traditional Newfoundland music, with both men recording projects individually. On March 16, 2010, Savory died after battling a lengthy illness. Despite the deterioration of his health, Savory spent the last few months of his life working in the music industry in Newfoundland that he helped redefine.<ref>{{cite web|title=Simani cofounder Savory mourned|url=http://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/newfoundland-labrador/simani-cofounder-savory-mourned-1.922153|publisher=CBC News|date=March 17, 2010|accessdate=December 7, 2017}}</ref>

Prior to his death, Savory would help aspiring artists with their recording experience at his state of the art recording facility in Belleoram.<ref name="gm100402"/>

Davidge was later the owner and operator of a cassette tape and CD-ROM duplication facility at [[English Harbour West]], just eight kilometers from Belleoram.<ref name="gm100402"/><ref name="coas">[http://www.thecoaster.ca/index.cfm?sid=191240&sc=319 The Coaster] {{Dead link|date=January 2011}}</ref> Davidge was elected to the Memorial University Board of Regents as an alumni representative in 2017.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://gazette.mun.ca/campus-and-community/results-are-in/|title= Results are in: Alumni elected to Board of Regents, highest participation to date|date=Jun 22, 2017|publisher=Memorial University Gazette|accessdate=Jan 17, 2021 }}</ref>

=== Communities ===
;Abraham's Cove
According to the local population, the Abraham's Cove site was first settled in the late 19th century by the Duffey family, of mixed [[Acadian]] and [[Mi'kmaq people|Mi'kmaq]] ancestry. The population kept livestock and fished for [[cod]], [[herring]], and [[lobster]]. With the increasing scarcity of commercial fish, many residents found employment in the nearby [[Ernest Harmon Air Force Base|Ernest Harmon US AFB]] in [[Stephenville, Newfoundland and Labrador|Stephenville]], which operated from 1941 to 1966, or at the provincial highways depot. Today, very few local residents still engage in [[fishing]], and many men and women seek seasonal employment elsewhere in the province or in [[Nova Scotia]].

;Piccadilly
Piccadilly has its own [[liquor]] and [[confectionery]] store, which is called Parkview. Its [[park]] is located a kilometre from Parkview. It is a beautiful place for [[camping]], the [[beach]] is sandy and a lot of people swim and go [[clamming]] on the [[shoal]]s.<ref>{{cite web | url=https://www.thewesternstar.com/news/local/new-guide-tells-the-unique-rocky-history-of-newfoundland-116163/ | title=New guide tells the unique rocky history of Newfoundland | SaltWire }}</ref> It has a great view of the bay and nature trails.

There is a wharf across from the Colliers, and marine centre, where the fishermen sell [[lobster]]s and fish. There is a church called Our Lady of Fatima where the community gathers on Sundays. In the early 1960s, Piccadilly housed the only theatre west of [[Stephenville, Newfoundland and Labrador|Stephenville]].

'''Seal Cove''' is a [[town]] in the [[Provinces and territories of Canada|Canadian province]] of [[Newfoundland and Labrador]], located on [[Fortune Bay]]. The town had a population of 215 in the [[Canada 2021 Census|2021 Census]]. The population of Seal Cove, Fortune Bay has fallen to approximately 215 largely due to outmigration for education and other work-related pursuits. The town was incorporated in 1972.

Historically, residents earned a living by fishing and logging for the large pulp and paper companies located in Central and Western parts of the province. In recent years there has been a greater dependency on work in the construction industry.

The origin of the village name is a matter of some controversy. According to local lore, the name, which was first referenced in 1817, could have had any one of three origins. Some speculate it is a reflection of the joyful experience of the first settlers in finding such a welcoming [[Environs (journal)|environs]]. Alternatively, it has been postulated that the community was named to commemorate a ship belonging to 17th-century pirate [[Peter Easton]]. Still others suggest the community was named by [[George Holbrook]], a [[British Admiralty]] hydrographer. Holbrook surveyed [[Newman Sound]] in 1817 and sheltered in one of Happy Adventure's coves during a storm.

==History==

The area was surveyed by [[Captain James Cook]] in 1767. The '''Captain James Cook Historic Site''' stands on Crow Hill overlooking the city.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.newfoundlandlabrador.com/PlanYourTrip/Detail/210593|title=Newfoundland and Labrador Tourism website|website=newfoundlandlabrador.com|access-date=5 March 2019}}</ref> By the middle of the 19th century, the population of Corner Brook was less than 100, and the inhabitants were engaged in fishing and lumber work.<ref>{{cite web|title=Fast Facts & History|url=http://www.cornerbrook.com/default.asp?mn=1.22.80|publisher=City of Corner Brook|access-date=2014-10-12|url-status=dead|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20141017193524/http://www.cornerbrook.com/default.asp?mn=1.22.80|archive-date=2014-10-17}}</ref>

The area was originally four distinct communities, each with unique commercial activities: [[Curling, Newfoundland and Labrador|Curling]], with its fishery; Corner Brook West (also known as Humber West or Westside) with its retail businesses; Corner Brook East (also known as Humbermouth and the Heights) with its [[Newfoundland Railway|railway]] and industrial operations; and Townsite (known as Corner Brook) to house employees of the pulp and paper mill, laid out in 1923 by [[Thomas Adams (architect)|Thomas Adams]] using [[Garden city movement|Garden City]] principles.<ref>Richard Symonds (2001), [https://web.archive.org/web/20060626054624/http://www.heritagefoundation.ca/docs/townsite.pdf Architecture and Planning of the Corner Brook Townsite 1923-1925], Heritage Foundation of Newfoundland and Labrador</ref> In 1956, these four communities were amalgamated to form the present-day City of Corner Brook.

Between 1948 and 1958, about 70 people from [[Latvia]] and [[Germany]] settled in Corner Brook. They came as part of then Premier Joseph Smallwood's New Industries program. They built and worked at North Star Cement and the Atlantic Gypsum Plant.

==Climate==
{{wide image|Corner-Brook.jpg|1000px|align-cap=center|Corner Brook}}

Corner Brook has a [[humid continental climate]] ([[Köppen climate classification|Dfb]]) typical of most of Newfoundland. It is warmer in summer than [[St. John's, NL|St. John's]] due to less maritime exposure, whereas winters are colder than in the provincial capital. In terms of its overall climate, it is very maritime-like, especially considering how the climate is in mainland Canada on similar latitudes. Precipitation is heavy year-round but highest in December and January and lowest in April and May, with relatively dry, stable conditions extending into July many years.

The Corner Brook area lies in an especially heavy snow belt because of cold Arctic air masses from mainland Canada, coming from the west or northwest, crossing the waters of the Gulf of St. Lawrence and picking up moisture, resulting in "sea-effect" snow (similar to "lake effect" snow in US locations like Muskegon and Sault Ste. Marie, Michigan). The "sea effect" snow comes in addition to the heavy snow that can accompany mid-latitude storms, called "nor'easters," that approach the area from the U.S. Northeastern and New England states. Such storms can bring high winds and heavy precipitation, with possibly changing precipitation types in a single storm. The combination of intense winter storms and "sea effect" snow make December and January the wettest months on average in Corner Brook. In December and January combined, average snowfall reaches nearly {{Convert|200|cm||abbr=}}.

'''South East Bight''' (SEB) or '''Southeast Bight''' is a [[Local service district (Newfoundland and Labrador)|local service district]] and [[designated place]] in the [[Provinces and territories of Canada|Canadian province]] of [[Newfoundland and Labrador]]. It is on the western shore of Placentia Bay on the [[Burin Peninsula]]. The community is not connected by road and is only accessible by ferry from [[Petite Forte, Newfoundland and Labrador|Petite Forte]]. Many people from the community travel to [[Monkstown, Newfoundland and Labrador|Monkstown]] in the winter by snowmobile, but is very uncommon to try to get there in the summer, because of marsh, bogs, ponds and hills. To get to South East Bight one must travel towards Marystown on the Burin Peninsula, turn off the highway at Boat Harbour, travel to [[Petite Forte, Newfoundland and Labrador|Petite Forte]] and then take a half-hour ferry ride to South East Bight.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/newfoundland-labrador/life-in-south-east-bight-gallery-1.4410246|title=Faces and Places: A peek inside the isolated outport of South East Bight|website=cbc.ca|publisher=CBC News|accessdate=October 2, 2020|date=November 25, 2017|first=Paula|last=Gale}}</ref><ref>{{cite web |title=South East Bight – Petite Forte ferry schedule |url=https://www.gov.nl.ca/ti/ferryservices/schedules/p-southeas/ |website=Transportation and Infrastructure |publisher=Government of Newfoundland and Labrador |accessdate=2 October 2020}}</ref><ref>{{cite web |title=N.L. ferries made 4,100 trips with no passengers last year | website=CBC | date=2020-05-15 | url=https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/newfoundland-labrador/ferry-newfoundland-no-passengers-cuts-1.5571881 | access-date=2020-12-17}}</ref>

== History ==
{{unreferenced section|date=May 2021}}

South East Bight was originally settled by the Handlins in 1835. By 1836 the population had risen to about 30 people, all of Roman Catholic religion. A census taken in 1871 showed that the main families were Dunphy, Hayne, Hefferon, Hunt, Pitman, Reddy, Ward, and Wight.

The community name came from the direction one takes to reach the community, and bight refers to a wide inlet in the coast. The first settlers of South East Bight came in the early 1850s from England and Ireland. These settlers were people involved in the fishery. In the late 19th century South East Bight was a very busy place, with a commercial farm, a slate quarry and a couple of lobster factories. Fishing was the main occupation and remains so today. In the 19th century the population was about 30 families and by the 1930s it dropped to about five families then grew to about 30 families again in the 1950s. When resettlement occurred in the 1960s many people left the community but nine families came in from surrounding places like Darby's Harbour, Clattice Harbour, and Channels Harbour. Many of these families still live in the community and return to these resettled communities to visit their cabins. The community is fully Roman Catholic religion and every family is supported by the fishery. Family names that remain today are Lake, Ward, Whyte, Hefferan, Jones, Murphy, Brewer and Hepditch.

South East Bight once had a small slate mine operating but the venture was not feasible and was quickly closed down. Years ago the men traveled to the lumber woods and to mines in places like St. Lawrence, to work in the fall to get extra money to supplement the fishing income.

[[Hurricane Larry]] made landfall near South East Bight late in the evening of September 10, 2021.<ref>{{cite report|last=Blake|first=Eric|title=Hurricane Larry Tropical Cyclone Update|date=September 10, 2021|url= https://www.nhc.noaa.gov/archive/2021/al12/al122021.update.09110355.shtml?|publisher=National Hurricane Center Miami, Florida|access-date=September 11, 2021}}</ref>

'''Small Point-Adam's Cove-Blackhead-Broad Cove''' is a town in the [[Provinces and territories of Canada|Canadian province]] of [[Newfoundland and Labrador]], located in the Trinity-Conception Bay District north of [[Carbonear, Newfoundland and Labrador|Carbonear]].

The town was incorporated in 1968 by amalgamating the independent fishing villages of Small Point, Adam's Cove, Blackhead and Broad Cove. The neighbouring community of [[Subdivision 1G, Newfoundland and Labrador#Kingston|Kingston]] was originally part of the amalgamation, but withdrew in 1976.

The town had a population of 414 in the [[Canada 2021 Census]].

On May 8, 2025, Adam's Cove experienced a severe [[wildfire]] with up to 600 hectares of land being destroyed and 40 structures of residents from Adam’s Cove to Western Bay also destroyed.

'''St. Lewis''' is a community on the coast of [[Labrador]] in the [[Provinces and territories of Canada|province]] of [[Newfoundland and Labrador]], Canada. Formerly known as '''Fox Harbour''', St. Lewis is the most easterly permanent community on the [[North America|North American mainland]]. The community of St. Lewis enjoys a long and vibrant history as one of the earliest recorded places in all of Labrador by Europeans.<ref>Poole, C. J. 1996 “Catucto: Battle Harbour, Labrador, 1832-1833”. Breakwater Books.</ref> [[European colonization of the Americas|Settled in the early 18th century (by Europeans)]], the area’s sheltered location, proximity to good fishing grounds and seal migration routes made the settlement a desired location for both the European-based [[Migratory Fishery of Labrador|migratory fishery]], and the native [[Inuit]] families who inhabited the [[NunatuKavut|south Labrador coast]].

==Geography==
The town lies neatly within a sheltered harbour at the mouth of St. Lewis Bay. Like most of the landscape along the east coast of Labrador, barren, rocky slopes scourged by the frigid [[Labrador Current]] extend throughout the St. Lewis Sound. The [[subarctic]] climate of the south Labrador coast generally offers a pleasant cool summer climate, which is soon replaced with a snow-covered, ice-chilled winter season. This harsh environment, with a few trifling exceptions, nourishes a hardy [[boreal ecosystem]]. Collective forests of [[Picea mariana|black spruce]], [[Picea glauca|white spruce]] and [[Abies balsamea|balsam fir]] are confined to interior valleys and riverbanks where the geography affords mild protection against the elements. Yet, the bleak, rocky shore of the Labrador coastline strongly resembles an [[tundra|Arctic tundra]] biome.

St. Lewis embellishes its position as the easternmost permanent community on the North American mainland. The community’s physical location provides an excellent vantage point to view the southward procession of [[iceberg]]s and floe-ice commencing every summer. St. Lewis is proudly recognized by Newfoundland and Labrador Tourism as located in the province's renowned "[[Atlantic Marine Ecozone|Iceberg Alley]]".

==History==
St. Lewis is one of the earliest recorded place names in Labrador. It was depicted on maps as early as 1502-1503 as ''Ilha de Frey Luis''.

The Loder family from [[Harbour Grace]] had established a fish trading business and constructed premises in the community; now restored, it houses exhibits relating the history of St. Lewis. The community has been a radar site since 1957, when the United States constructed [[Fox Harbour Air Station]], a [[Early-warning radar|radar site]] as part of the [[Pinetree Line|Pinetree Radar System]]. A [[LORAN|Loran C]] station was operated by the [[Canadian Coast Guard]] at St. Lewis. In January 2010, it was announced that the Loran C signal would be terminated. The broadcasting of the Loran C signal ceased in August 2010.

In 2012, the local fish plant closed.<ref>{{cite web |url=https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/newfoundland-labrador/7-fish-plants-declared-permanently-closed-1.1158463 |title=7 fish plants declared permanently closed |work=CBC News |date=May 24, 2012 |access-date=January 10, 2022 }}</ref>

== Demographics ==
In the [[2021 Canadian census|2021 Census of Population]] conducted by [[Statistics Canada]], St. Lewis had a population of {{val|181|fmt=commas}} living in {{val|72|fmt=commas}} of its {{val|93|fmt=commas}} total private dwellings, a change of {{percentage|{{#expr:181-194}}|194|1}} from its 2016 population of {{val|194|fmt=commas}}.

It was recreated in 1995 following a reduction in the number of seats in the House of Assembly from 52 to 48, forming from the amalgamation of the former districts of La Poile and Burgeo-Bay D'Espoir.

The district takes in the southwestern corner of Newfoundland, stretching from the town of [[Burgeo]] in the east to Cape Ray in the west. Its largest community, [[Port aux Basques]], is the island's link to continental North America through the [[Marine Atlantic]] ferry service.

The population in the region dropped by about 15 per cent between 1996 and 2001. The size of the district grew significantly in the 2007 redistribution as the eastern border pushed out an extra 37 kilometers.

'''Clarenville''' is a town on the east coast of [[Newfoundland (island)|Newfoundland]] in the province of [[Newfoundland and Labrador]], Canada. Clarenville was incorporated in 1951. It is located in the Shoal Harbour valley, fronting an arm of the Atlantic Ocean called Random Sound.

The town grew in importance after it became a junction on the [[Newfoundland Railway]], where a branch line to the [[Bonavista Peninsula]] left the main line. The construction of the [[Trans-Canada Highway]] through the community in the 1960s resulted in it becoming a local service centre for central-eastern Newfoundland, serving 96,000 people living in 90 communities within a 100 km radius{{citation needed|date=July 2013}}. Clarenville is centrally located and within two hours' driving time of 70% of the province's population.

The town is a natural gateway to the Discovery Trail, extending down the Bonavista Peninsula to Trinity and Bonavista, reputed site of the first landing of European explorer John Cabot. The trail is a panorama of scenery, historic sites, coastal towns and villages.

[[TAT-1]] (the first transatlantic telephone cable) was laid between Clarenville and Gallanach Bay, [[Oban]] between 1955 and 1956 by the cable ship ''[[Monarch]]''.

==Geography==

Clarenville is near the centre of three peninsulas: [[Avalon Peninsula|Avalon]], [[Burin Peninsula|Burin]], and [[Bonavista Peninsula|Bonavista]]. [[Newfoundland and Labrador Route 1|Route 1]] (the [[Trans-Canada Highway]]) and [[Newfoundland and Labrador Route 230|Route 230]] pass through the town, linking Clarenville to the Bonavista Bay area and to the rest of the provincial road network.

The Clarenville area has many of the physical features characteristic of the East Coast of Newfoundland and has a marine climate. It lies along the coastal slopes which rise from the Atlantic Ocean towards the interior central plateau of the island. The dominating physical feature is a ridge of broken peaks which rise to heights up to 152 meters above sea level parallel to the coast line. Bare Mountain, with an elevation of 156 meters above sea level, dominates the skyline in the northern part of the town. This ridge falls sharply towards the sea so that its coastal edge is characterized by moderate to severe slopes.
[[File:Cvillefall 113.jpg|thumb|Harbour View of Clarenville]]
Towards the southern part of Clarenville, the ridge is broken by a series of valleys which have cut their way through from the coast. The most notable of these is the valley formed by the Lower Shoal Harbour River and Dark Hole Brook and their seaward extension of Lower Shoal Harbour, a shallow and narrow indentation of the sea marked by small rock islands and tidal mud flats. The flats surrounding the river are marshy and subjected to flooding during spring runoff. The river serves as the main drainage course for the area behind the coastal ridge.

Clarenville has developed in a narrow strip between the coastal ridge and the sea. The average width of the corridor is between 450 and 600 meters. Located at the most westerly end of an in-drift called Random Sound, extending 25 km inland behind Random Island. As probably the deepest, best sheltered, [[ice-free port]] on Newfoundland's east coast, Clarenville is suited for commercial shipping and recreational boating.

==History==
There is no definite date for the first settlement of what is now Clarenville. William Cowan owned a sawmill at Lower Shoal Harbour around 1848 and this was bought by Joseph Tilley and James Summers of Hants Harbour. They settled here. Settlers also arrived at Dark Hole (or Dark Harbour). The families that made up this community were the Balsoms, Pearces, Vardys, and Seawards. Settlers also arrived at Brook Cove (the Burseys), Broad Cove (the Strongs, Adeys), and Red Beach (the Stanleys). These five communities became part of a new community known as Clarenceville in 1892 when the railway came through.
There are two versions of the origin of Clarenville's name. It has been attributed to a memorial to the Duke of Clarence, eldest son of the then Prince of Wales (later King Edward VII) who died in 1892. The other version is that it was named for a son of Premier [[William Whiteway|Sir William Whiteway]]. However, Whiteway had no son by that name. By 1901, Clarenville was the way everyone spelled the name and it has remained that way.

[[File:Clarenville.JPG|thumb|right|A wood carving of the town seal of Clarenville on display at [[Memorial University of Newfoundland]].]]

John Tilley and his family were the first settlers of Lower Shoal Harbour. They traveled from Hants Harbour in 1848 because of the abundance of timber here. Many referred to him as "Scholar John", as he had taught himself how to read and write. As a young man, he married Elizabeth Bursey of Old Perlican and they had four sons and six daughters. Being one of the earliest Justices of the Peace licensed to perform marriages in Newfoundland, John Tilley performed the marriage of his own daughter. Church records show that Tilley's name appears several times in the late 1830s and 1840s, when there was apparently no minister or missionary available. When the Tilleys arrived, the first thing they had to do was build a log cottage which would be a temporary structure. They later built a saw mill so they could build a standard-size home. Along with the saw mill, the Tilleys became involved with fox farming, gardening, coopering, blacksmithing, fishing and fish canning. John Tilley and Sons were the first tinning operation to tin salmon in Newfoundland (the first salmon was tinned by Tilley and Sons). Shortly after Scholar John tinned his first salmon he learned of a fishery exhibition. He sent a sample to the exhibition and received a prize in the form of a bronze medal with the inscription: "Warranted to keep free from taint and to retain its purity and nutritious quality, in any climate for many years." Later, Scholar John and his sons Aaron and Moses Tilley, with help from John's son-in-law David Palmer, built the first church in Shoal Harbour.

In 1993, Clarenville and Shoal Harbour were amalgamated.

==Recreation==

Clarenville held the 1994 Newfoundland Winter Games and the 1997 National Under 17 Men's Softball Tournament. In November 2010, the town also hosted two games of the [[Four Nations Cup]]. Clarenville has recreational facilities including a health club with an indoor pool, three softball diamonds (one lit by night), a soccer pitch with a running track, and a recreation complex with three regulation size volleyball courts. The newly constructed Clarenville Events Centre includes a theatre, a rink for hockey, figure skating and curling, and is home to the [[Clarenville Caribous]]. Nearby are three golf courses, hiking trails, snowmobiling country. Clarenville has the only ski resort east of Corner Brook, called White Hills Ski Resort. White Hills is also home to The New Curtain Theatre Company at The Loft Theatre.

== Demographics ==

The island is approximately 3.14 km long by 0.93 km wide (1.95 miles by 0.58 miles). The other major islands in the [[archipelago]] are Great (or Big) Island, Middle Island, Harbour Island, and South West Island.<ref>[http://www.wright-photo.com/ramea1.htm Ramea Island]</ref>

Ramea is inaccessible by road and is serviced by an intra-provincial ferry in [[Burgeo]].<ref>{{cite web |last1=Bird |first1=Lindsay |title=Fighting for first pay raise in 8 years, some ferry captains in N.L. look to strike on Friday |url=https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/newfoundland-labrador/ferry-captain-strike-nl-1.5693206 |publisher=CBC News |accessdate=Nov 21, 2020 |date=Aug 20, 2020}}</ref><ref>{{cite web |title=No deal: Provincial government ushers in essential service ferry schedule as of Tuesday morning |url=https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/newfoundland-labrador/nl-ferry-schedule-strike-1.5698392 |publisher=CBC News |accessdate=Nov 21, 2020 |date=Aug 24, 2020}}</ref><ref>{{cite web |last1=Stoodley |first1=Allan |title=Decades after resettlement, tiny communities still dot Newfoundland's 'forgotten coast' |url=https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/newfoundland-labrador/forgotten-coast-communities-1.5763652 |publisher=CBC News |accessdate=Nov 21, 2020 |date=Oct 25, 2020}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web|url=https://www.saltwire.com/atlantic-canada/federal-election/ramea-burgeo-ferry-back-on-course-48320/|title=Ramea-Burgeo ferry back on course|first=Bryan|last=Tait|website=Saltwire.com|access-date=31 January 2022}}</ref>

==History==
The community, originally settled in the early 19th century for its proximity to rich fishing grounds and safe anchorages, was once a thriving fishing village. The town of Ramea was incorporated in 1951.<ref>[http://www.explorenewfoundlandandlabrador.com/communities/ramea.htm Ramea - Newfoundland and Labrador]</ref> It was probably named for Le Ramée, a street in [[Saint Peter Port]], the capital of [[Guernsey]].<ref>{{cite book|last1=Hamilton|first1=William Baillie|title=Place Names of Atlantic Canada|date=1996|publisher=University of Toronto Press|isbn=0802075703|url=https://books.google.com/books?id=UAvyE0pN5akC&q=Ramea|page=250}}</ref>

From 1949 to 1970, businesswoman [[Marie Penny]] owned and operated John Penny & Sons,<ref>{{Cite web|url=http://www.ramea.ca/history.htm|title=History of Ramea|website=www.ramea.ca|access-date=2017-11-24}}</ref> one of the largest frozen fish companies in Newfoundland during the 20th century.<ref>{{Cite book|url=https://books.google.com/books?id=iAB_yTC_TrgC&q=marie+penny+1967&pg=PA98|title=A Fishery for Modern Times: The State and the Industrialization of the Newfoundland Fishery, 1934-1968|last=Wright|first=Miriam Carol|date=2001|publisher=University of Toronto Press|isbn=9780195416206|language=en}}</ref> Since the [[Collapse of the Northern Cod Fishery|cod moratorium]] of 1992, the isolated community has struggled to survive, having declined to about 50% of its peak population of 1,120 in the 1970s.{{citation needed|date=December 2024}}

In 1993, St. Boniface All Grade School, the only school in the community, burnt down. The school was later rebuilt.<ref>{{Cite news |last=Roy |first=Rosalyn |date=August 20, 2018 |title=Ramea in need of a new fire truck |url=https://www.saltwire.com/newfoundland-labrador/ramea-in-need-of-a-new-fire-truck-235031 |url-status=live |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20250330052527/https://www.saltwire.com/newfoundland-labrador/ramea-in-need-of-a-new-fire-truck-235031 |archive-date=March 30, 2025 |work=The Telegram}}</ref>

A [[Come Home Year]] for Ramea was held in 2009.{{citation needed|date=December 2024}}

Ramea is home to a large number of plants, which include the [[Sarracenia purpurea|purple pitcher plant]] and [[cloudberry|bakeapple]]. Furthermore, the island and surrounding islands serve as a fall and winter home to many migratory seabirds.{{citation needed|date=December 2024}}

=== Wind energy ===
In 2004, Ramea was chosen for the site of Canada's first wind-diesel demonstration project was completed with the support of CETC-Ottawa. Six 65 kW wind turbines were installed on the island of Ramea, Newfoundland. The objective of the project was to demonstrate that the Wind-Diesel Integrated Control System (WDICS) can be used to displace diesel power generation by introducing wind to the island's grid and to show significant energy efficiency and reliability for northern, remote or isolated locations.{{citation needed|date=December 2024}}

The [[Wind-Diesel Hybrid Power Systems|wind-diesel]] pilot program generates around 400,000 kWh electricity annually.{{citation needed|date=December 2024}}

Ramea was selected as the pilot site<ref>[http://www.releases.gov.nl.ca/releases/2007/nr/0726n05.htm Sod Turning for First Commercial Wind Farm in Newfoundland and Labrador]</ref> for a [[Wind-Hydrogen Hybrid Power Systems|Wind-Hydrogen]] power system. The project is being undertaken by [[Newfoundland and Labrador Hydro]] in partnership with [[Natural Resources Canada]], [[Memorial University of Newfoundland|Memorial University]], [[University of New Brunswick]] and Frontier Power Systems.{{citation needed|date=December 2024}}

The wind-hydrogen system was due for completion in April 2010.<ref>http://www.nalcor.org/assets/nalcorenergyrameareport_january2010.pdf {{Dead link|date=March 2022}}</ref> In 2018 it was reported that the project was experiencing difficulties and was shut down.<ref>{{cite web |url=http://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/newfoundland-labrador/ramea-wind-power-project-at-standstill-1.4695679 |title=Ramea wind project at a standstill as residents worry about high power rates |author= |date=10 June 2018 |website=[[CBC News]] |access-date=11 June 2018 }}</ref>

Burgeo (''Najioqonuk'' in the [[Miꞌkmaq language]]) falls under the Flat Bay ward of the [[Qalipu First Nation]]. It is also home to the independent Burgeo First Nation Band, a local self-identified band of [[Miꞌkmaq]] that currently have status and non-status members. Non-status members are planning to seek status under the [[Indian Act]].<ref>{{Cite news|title=Burgeo Mi'kmaq split off to form Newfoundland's newest Aboriginal band {{!}} CBC News|language=en-US|work=CBC|url=https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/newfoundland-labrador/newfoundlands-newest-aboriginal-band-1.4632778|access-date=2020-12-03}}</ref>

==Notable people==
The famed Canadian nature writer and [[Natural history|naturalist]] [[Farley Mowat]] lived in Burgeo for five years during his time in Newfoundland. He wrote several books during his time there, including the controversial ''A Whale for the Killing,''<ref>{{Cite news|title=Farley Mowat remembered by Burgeo resident {{!}} CBC News|language=en-US|work=CBC|url=https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/newfoundland-labrador/farley-mowat-remembered-by-burgeo-resident-1.2636367|access-date=2020-11-26}}</ref> which was later adapted into a [[A Whale for the Killing|movie]] loosely based on the book but with the same name.

[[Newfoundland and Labrador Route 480|Route 480]], also referred to as the Burgeo road, was a frequent subject for famed Canadian painter [[Christopher Pratt]], who depicted it on several occasions and began his book ''Thoughts on Driving to Venus'' there in 1999. On Saturday 11 April (2009), Pratt wrote:<ref>{{Cite web|title=The Porcupine's Quill {{!}} Book Listing {{!}} Thoughts on Driving to Venus|url=https://porcupinesquill.ca//bookinfo6.php?index=307|access-date=2020-08-18|website=porcupinesquill.ca}}</ref><blockquote>'Burgeo Road, 10:30 am. 3 °C, breezy, mixture of sun and cloud. Enroute Sandbanks on a chilly but very inviting day. I always remember these "Car Books" began on this road—intended to be a short-hand, stream of consciousness, trigger-happy sort of thing, a sequence of responses, not considered efforts at insights or forced philosophies.' </blockquote>

'''Grey River''' is a [[Local service district (Newfoundland and Labrador)|local service district]] and [[designated place]] in the [[Provinces and territories of Canada|Canadian province]] of [[Newfoundland and Labrador]]. Grey River was first settled in the early 1800s by English 'youngsters' brought to Newfoundland via great merchant houses based at [[Ramea]], [[Burgeo]], and [[Gaultois]]. James Style(s) was the earliest known resident reported in 1835.

Grey River is inaccessible by road and is serviced by an intra-provincial ferry in [[Burgeo]].<ref>{{cite web |last1=Bird |first1=Lindsay |title=Fighting for first pay raise in 8 years, some ferry captains in N.L. look to strike on Friday |url=https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/newfoundland-labrador/ferry-captain-strike-nl-1.5693206 |publisher=CBC News |accessdate=Nov 21, 2020 |date=Aug 20, 2020}}</ref><ref>{{cite web |title=No deal: Provincial government ushers in essential service ferry schedule as of Tuesday morning |url=https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/newfoundland-labrador/nl-ferry-schedule-strike-1.5698392 |publisher=CBC News |accessdate=Nov 21, 2020 |date=Aug 24, 2020}}</ref><ref>{{cite web |last1=Stoodley |first1=Allan |title=Decades after resettlement, tiny communities still dot Newfoundland's 'forgotten coast' |url=https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/newfoundland-labrador/forgotten-coast-communities-1.5763652 |publisher=CBC News |accessdate=Nov 21, 2020 |date=Oct 25, 2020}}</ref>

== History ==
The settlement was first named '''Little River'''. A severe measles outbreak occurred in the early 1900s. Settlers wired a doctor at St. John's to request advice and medical supplies. The dispatch was sent to Little River on the north-east coast instead of this settlement on the south-west coast. As a result, there were quite a few deaths and the name was changed to Grey River to prevent similar happenings.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.asag.k12.nf.ca/grassroots/greyriver/history.htm|title=History of Grey River|website=asag.k12.nf.ca|accessdate=Nov 21, 2020}}</ref>

As a designated place in the [[Canada 2021 Census|2021 Census of Population]] conducted by [[Statistics Canada]], Grey River recorded a population of 95 living in 41 of its 50 total private dwellings, a change of {{percentage|{{#expr:95-104}}|104|1}} from its 2016 population of 104.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www12.statcan.gc.ca/census-recensement/2021/dp-pd/prof/details/page.cfm?Lang=E&SearchText=Grey%20River&DGUIDlist=2021A0006100128&GENDERlist=1,2,3&STATISTIClist=1&HEADERlist=0|title=Census Profile, 2021 Census|access-date=Feb 9, 2022|publisher=Statistics Canada}}</ref> With a land area of {{convert|2.44|km2|sqmi|abbr=on}}, it had a population density of {{Pop density|104|2.44|km2|sqmi|prec=1}} in 2016.<ref name=2016census>{{cite web | url=https://www12.statcan.gc.ca/census-recensement/2016/dp-pd/hlt-fst/pd-pl/Table.cfm?Lang=Eng&T=1301&SR=1&S=3&O=D&RPP=9999&PR=10 | title=Population and dwelling counts, for Canada, provinces and territories, and designated places, 2016 and 2011 censuses – 100% data (Newfoundland and Labrador) | publisher=[[Statistics Canada]] | date=February 7, 2018 | access-date=December 22, 2021}}</ref>

== Economy ==
Fishing has long remained the main industry in Grey River with the salmon fishery becoming an economic backbone for the community. Since the 1960s and 1970s, residents have increasingly returned to the salmon fishery for income. The scallop fishery also proposes a viable fishing alternative.<ref>{{cite web |title=Grey River - Newfoundland and Labrador |url=http://www.explorenewfoundlandandlabrador.com/communities/grey-river.htm |website=explorenewfoundlandandlabrador.com |access-date=27 November 2020}}</ref>

===Sawmill, mine, and bunkhouse===
The sawmill in Little River was built in 1955 by then owner, Tom Young, and is currently owned by Garfield Young. Lumber made at this sawmill was sold to several places outside Little River. It was turned into a gas pump in 1988 once the sawmill had fallen out of use and a place to store gasoline and fuel was needed. Prior to this, fuel was stored outside in large drums.

Grey River Tungsten of Buchans, NL (now Playfair Mining, Vancouver, BC, Canada) started the mine upon discovering plentiful tungsten. They dumped the leftover dirt about a hundred meters from the mine entrance by using a little cart run by a diesel motor. The mine went in the cliff about a mile and a half. The mine shut down because the price of Tungsten dropped on the world market. Today, the stock price lists at a penny or two per share. The property is located adjacent to the fishing village of Grey River.

The miners built the bunkhouse in 1962. Some miners stayed there while others stayed in their homes. An American company named Carco owned the mine and the bunkhouse, but now Liberty Resources does. Inside the bunkhouse, there was just a straight hallway with sleeping quarters on each side. Today, teachers stay in the bunkhouse.

A 6,300 foot long (1,920 metre) adit has been driven into the Main Vein from near the village of Grey River at approximately 40 metres above sea level. Docking and wharf facilities existed at the Asarco adit but the present conditions are not known.

A large government-owned wharf in Grey River is serviced by coastal boat from [[Burgeo]], a coastal port about 40 km to the west.<ref>{{cite web |title=N.L. government looking for ferry savings on south coast |url=https://www.thetelegram.com/business/nl-government-looking-for-ferry-savings-on-south-coast-162480/ |publisher=The Telegram |accessdate=Nov 21, 2020 |date=Nov 17, 2017}}</ref> Burgeo is linked by Route 480 to the [[Trans-Canada Highway]] and [[Stephenville, Newfoundland and Labrador|Stephenville]] airport approximately 125 km to the North. The claims are accessed by foot and helicopter while the Main Zone adit is within 150 metres by gravel trail from Grey River village. A local diesel generator supplies electricity to Grey River.

The first reported census of 1857 reveals a population of only thirteen citizens. The population today reaches only 104 residents. Located between two mountains, a sheltered basin offers protection from the raging winds which often stop the ferry service from running on schedule. These hills reach an elevation of 199–305 meters or 1000 feet.

'''St. Bernard's-Jacques Fontaine''' is a [[town]] in the [[Provinces and territories of Canada|Canadian province]] of [[Newfoundland and Labrador]]. The town had a population of 433 in the [[Canada 2021 Census]], a drop from 470 in 2011.<ref name="community profile">{{cite web|title=2016 Community Profiles - St. Bernard's-Jacques Fontaine|url=http://www12.statcan.gc.ca/census-recensement/2016/dp-pd/prof/details/page.cfm?Lang=E&Geo1=CSD&Code1=1002041&Geo2=CD&Code2=1002&Data=Count&SearchText=St.%20Bernard's&SearchType=Begins&SearchPR=01&B1=All&TABID=1|publisher=Statistics Canada|accessdate=February 22, 2018}}</ref>

==History==
The town of St. Bernard's-Jacques Fontaine was [[Merger (politics)|amalgamated]] in 1994 from two small fishing communities.<ref>{{Cite web|url=http://www.explorenewfoundlandandlabrador.com/communities/st-bernards-jacques-fontaine.htm|title=St. Bernard's - Jacques Fontaine, Newfoundland and Labrador}}</ref>

=== St. Bernard's ===
Incorporated as a town in 1967, the community was known as Fox Cove until 1915. The name was changed to differentiate it from two other communities with the same name. St. Bernard's appears to have been settled in the early 19th century by the Johnson, Stewart and Whelan families. These were primarily [[Anglicanism|Anglican]] fishermen and as with many Newfoundland communities, as [[Roman Catholic]] fishermen began to settle there the populations diverged. St. Bernard's became predominantly Roman Catholic, while the nearby communities of Jacques Fontaine and Bay L'Argent became predominantly Anglican.

=== Jacques Fontaine ===
Incorporated as a town in 1986, this small fishing community is located near the base of the [[Burin Peninsula]] on the east side of [[Fortune Bay]] approximately 3 km east of [[Bay L'Argent]]. The origin of the name is uncertain, perhaps deriving from an early French settler, although it appears on many early maps as Jack (or Jack's) Fontaine.

Earliest known mention of the location is by [[James Cook]] during his survey of Newfoundland on July 16, 1765, he recorded in his log: "At 7PM anchored with the best bower in a bight called Jack Fountain, in 10 fathoms water and moored with the small anchor and hawser. At noon weighed and came to sail."{{Citation needed|date=July 2011}}

The earliest known settler was a Reuben Buffett. Two of his children were born at Jack Fontaine according to the Grand Bank Methodist Church Records. Charlotte was born 19 December 1819 and Ambrose was born 21 Nov 1823.

The first recorded census in 1863 labels the community as Tank Fontaine with a population of 33 residents. In 1935, there were 125 residents, noting the most common family names as Johnson, Pardy, Allen, Harris and Brushett. In the early 1980s, the population of Jacques Fontaine reached 200, most people finding employment in the inshore and long liner fisheries.

==History==
St. Lawrence was named by a group of shipwrecked sailors who came to the Newfoundland in 1583 with Sir [[Humphrey Gilbert]]. During the expedition, their vessel, ''[[English ship Delight (1583)|Delight]]'', sank off [[Sable Island]]. Sixteen of her crew drifted in a lifeboat for seven days before coming ashore on the South Coast in Little St. Lawrence. Richard Clarke, the master of the doomed ship, wrote a dramatic account of the event in 1584.<ref>Richard Clarke's ''Account of the Casting Away of the Delight'' (1584) in David B.Quinn Ed The Voyages and Colonising Enterprises of Sir Humphrey Gilbert, Vol.1, London:[[Hakluyt Society]], 1940 p423-26.</ref>

The area was known to English, French, and Basque fishermen in the 1500s and there were a few French stages at St. Lawrence itself, for the early French ship fishermen for the fishing season.<ref>{{cite book

==Economy==
Fishing was the main economic activity of the area for hundreds of years due to the proximity of St. Lawrence with the [[Grand Banks of Newfoundland|Grand Banks]]. The November 1929 tsunami "added greatly to the hardship already inflicted by the [[Great Depression]] and the collapse of the [[Dried and salted cod|saltfish]] trade", according to Heritage Newfoundland.<ref name="McKenzie-Sutter"/><ref name="heritage-nf-ca-mines">[https://www.heritage.nf.ca/articles/economy/st-lawrence-mines.php The St. Lawrence Fluorspar Mines: A Brief History]</ref>

Fluorspar (also called [[fluorite]]) deposits had been noted as early as 1843 but it was not until 1933 that mining began. The operation was started by American Walter Siebert whose company was named the St. Lawrence Corporation of Newfoundland. Backbreaking work and no pay initially, finally led to a more significant mine by 1937; a second mine also opened in 1937, the American Newfoundland Fluorspar Company.
The [[Fluorite|fluorspar]] mines in St. Lawrence were major employers until business declined in the 1970s; the mines had closed by 1978. The most noteworthy heritage was the "numerous deaths associated with fluorspar mining, and the physical and social costs of widespread industrial disease", according to a Heritage Newfoundland report.<ref name="heritage-nf-ca-mines"/> The author of a book published in 2019 spoke of the "deaths and serious injuries from the beginning in a manifestly unsafe workplace" in an interview with ''Maclean's''. Lung cancer "caused by radioactivity-laced water piled onto the other lung and heart disorders initiated by the dust" led to 313 deaths over the decades, he said.<ref name="macleans-ca-tsunami"/>

In 2011 Canada Fluorspar Inc. outlined preparations to open a fluorspar mine on the site of the old mine. The federal government provided $5 million in funding in 2017 and the provincial government provided a loan of $17 million to finance the re-opening. Production finally commenced in mid-2018.<ref>{{cite news|url=https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/newfoundland-labrador/fluorspar-mine-investment-st-lawrence-1.4026074|title=St. Lawrence fluorspar mine gets $5M from feds, hundreds of jobs touted|publisher=CBC News|date=March 15, 2017}}</ref><ref>[https://www.thetelegram.com/business/first-fluorspar-from-st-lawrence-mine-to-ship-this-week-haley-232359/ First fluorspar from St. Lawrence mine to ship this week: Haley]</ref> In spring 2019, the company was planning to develop a new shipping port on the west side of Burin Peninsula as a more affordable means of moving their product to markets.<ref>[https://www.thetelegram.com/news/local/cfi-seeking-new-location-for-shipping-port-in-st-lawrence-nl-305947/ CFI seeking new location for shipping port in St. Lawrence, NL]</ref> The company believed that the port would also allow for shipping aggregates and the company president said that it would allow for fluorspar operations to continue for ten years longer than the previously-predicted eight years.<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://www.naturalresourcesmagazine.net/article/rocking-it/|title=Rocking it {{pipe}} Natural Resources Magazine|first=James|last=Risdon}}</ref>

A wind project was initiated by the [[Government of Newfoundland and Labrador]] for St. Lawrence. The project resulted in the installation of nine Vestas V90-3MW wind turbines. As of September 2019, all nine were operational.<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://www.thewindpower.net/windfarm_en_3979_st.-lawrence.php|title=St. Lawrence (Canada) - Wind farms - Online access - The Wind Power|website=www.thewindpower.net}}</ref>

A plan to develop a major industrial park enabled the town to obtain $1.3 million in funding from the provincial and federal government, combined, to develop eight fully service lots. The 2019 plan stalled in September, however. At the time, some argued that the fluorspar mine was not adding enough to the local economy.<ref>[https://www.thetelegram.com/news/local/industrial-park-for-st-lawrence-nl-on-hold-349400/ Industrial park for St. Lawrence NL on hold]</ref>

St. Lawrence has a K-12 School, St. Lawrence Academy. The school was initially the high school for the town "St. Lawrence Central High School". With dwindling enrollment in the 1990s the school was renamed St. Lawrence Academy and encompassed K-6 upon the closure of Marion Elementary in 1999.

St. Lawrence has been referred to as the 'Soccer Capital of Newfoundland’.<ref>{{Cite web|url=http://www.townofstlawrence.com/laurentians.htm|title=St. Lawrence Laurentian's Soccer}}</ref> St. Lawrence Centennial Soccer Field has been listed on the Historic Places in Canada since 2005.<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://www.historicplaces.ca/en/rep-reg/place-lieu.aspx?id=3554|title=HistoricPlaces.ca - HistoricPlaces.ca|website=www.historicplaces.ca}}</ref>

The St. Lawrence soccer teams have been a powerhouse of soccer both on the [[Burin Peninsula]] where they have dominated. As well at the provincial level success has also been achieved culminating in the Laurentians being named the "Team of the Decade" for the 70's and 90's.

The town has nine organized soccer teams. The [[St. Lawrence Laurentians]] soccer club is the most recognized.

==Climate==
St. Lawrence has a warm-summer [[humid continental climate]] (''Dfb'') bordering on a [[subarctic climate]] (''Dfc''), albeit an ocean moderated one more akin to a [[subpolar oceanic climate]] or to the even more similar climate of the [[Kuril Islands]] off Eurasia than one like that of [[Fairbanks, Alaska]]. The [[seasonal lag]] rivals that of the Pacific coast in [[California]], with August being the warmest month and September and July having very similar temperatures. The coldest month is February. Summer lasts from mid-July through mid-September and winter lasts from late November through early May.

'''Grand Bank''' or 'Grand Banc' as the first French settlers pronounced it, is a small rural town in the [[Canadian province]] of [[Newfoundland and Labrador]], with a population of 2,580. It is located on the southern tip or "toe" of the [[Burin Peninsula]] (also known as "the boot"), 360 km from the province's capital of [[St. John's, Newfoundland and Labrador|St. John's]].

Grand Bank was inhabited by French fisherman as early as 1640 and started as a fishing settlement with about seven families. It was given the name "Grand Banc" because of the high bank that extends from Admiral's Cove to the water's edge on the west side of the harbour.<ref>Riggs Bert. "Grand Bank" In Joseph R. Smallwood, ed. Encyclopedia of Newfoundland and Labrador. Vol. 2. St.John's:Newfoundland Book Publishers (1967) Ltd., 1984, p.677</ref>

The Town of Grand Bank can attribute much of its past and present growth and prosperity to its proximity to the fishing grounds and its ice-free harbour. Original settlers thrived on trade with the French and a vigorous inshore fishing industry. Grand Bank became the nucleus of the bank fishing industry for Newfoundland and a service centre for Fortune Bay. With the decline of the salt fish industry, the town's emphasis quickly shifted to fresh fish production. Enterprising businessmen and town planners prepared the way for a fresh fish plant (present day Grand Bank Seafoods Inc.) and a fleet of trawlers.

==Timeline==
*1640 – French fishermen were said{{by whom|date=December 2015}} to be in Grand Bank during this time.
*1687 – First French Census taken in Newfoundland shows "Grand Banc" with a population of 45 (39 servants, 2 masters, 3 women and 1 child). The first community had one church, 3 houses and 18 muskets.
*1693 – Census takers recorded some of the prominent names: Bourney, Commer, Chevallier and Grandin.
*1713 – [[Treaty of Utrecht]], France relinquishes its claim to Newfoundland including St. Pierre et Miquelon. The French Population moved to Ile Royale (Cape Breton).
*1714 – [[William Taverner (surveyor)|William Taverner]] surveys the coast for the English Government.
*1763 – Peace Treaty of Paris: French are given St. Pierre et Miquelon, forcing the English population at St. Pierre to relocate to Grand Bank and Fortune Bay. First record of English settlement.
*1765 – [[James Cook|Captain James Cook]] mapped out the area and moored his ship at Admiral's Cove. Came ashore and gathered buds off the small spruce tree to brew beer (excellent source of vitamin C) for his crew.
*1836 – Census list 45 dwellings and a population of 236 residents.
*1850s – By the end of the 1850s, Grand Bank had a school, a doctor, a judicial system, a postal service and a road system.
*1870s – A change in fishing vessel from a shallop to a schooner. With the change in vessel came a change in fishing gear. The trawl was introduced. However, the trawl could not be set directly from the schooner. There was a need for a smaller boat, different from the punt; we have the first appearance of the [[Banks dory|dory]].
*1879 – Breakwater and Dredging legislation was passed.
*1881 – [[Grand Banks of Newfoundland|Bank Fishery]] began and [[Samuel Harris (Newfoundland merchant)|Samuel Harris]]’s first season on the banks was a success. In short order, a number of other Grand Bankers with schooners followed (some of which include George Abraham Buffett, Simeon N. Tibbo and Daniel Tibbo). The demand for schooners dramatically increased. There were at one point (1885 & 1886) seven schooners being built in Grand Bank.
*1890–1940 – Grand Bank had a fleet of banking and foreign-going ships and earned the distinction "The Bank Fishing Capital" of Newfoundland.
*1955 – Modern fresh fish processing plant was built in Grand Bank and the schooners were replaced with modern steel trawlers.

Today, Grand Bank is the home of a shell fishing industry, a modern plant owned by Grand Bank Seafoods (A division of [[Clearwater Seafoods]]). It is also home to [[Dynamic Air Shelters]] - Manufactures of specialized, inflatable industrial shelters for the oil and gas sector, as well as structures for promotional and ‘first response’ uses.

== Demographics ==
In the [[2021 Canadian census|2021 Census of Population]] conducted by [[Statistics Canada]], Grand Bank had a population of {{val|2152|fmt=commas}} living in {{val|1026|fmt=commas}} of its {{val|1162|fmt=commas}} total private dwellings, a change of {{percentage|{{#expr:2152-2310}}|2310|1}} from its 2016 population of {{val|2310|fmt=commas}}. With a land area of {{convert|16.82|km2|sqmi|abbr=on}}, it had a population density of {{Pop density|2152|16.82|km2|sqmi|prec=1}} in 2021.<ref name=2021census>{{cite web | url=https://www150.statcan.gc.ca/t1/tbl1/en/tv.action?pid=9810000203&geocode=A000210 | title=Population and dwelling counts: Canada, provinces and territories, census divisions and census subdivisions (municipalities), Newfoundland and Labrador | publisher=[[Statistics Canada]] | date=February 9, 2022 | accessdate=March 15, 2022}}</ref>

In recent years Grand Bank has seen a tripling of visitors interested in the Queen Anne architecture in the older homes, the traditions of a seafaring people and the heritage still evident in the older businesses, stores, halls and museums. Heritage Canada's Main Street program has been a great success, as evident in the face-lift of many storefront properties. This program was designed to assist in the revitalization of the downtown of Grand Bank using its four components - organization, marketing, design and economic development.

*The climate of Grand Bank is classified as [[Boreal (Koppen Dfb)]].<ref>Climate and Weather of Newfoundland and Labrador, Banfield, C.E., St. John's Creative Publishing.</ref>
*It enjoys one of the most favourable climates of Newfoundland and Labrador, mainly due to its position on the extreme southern coast of the Burin Peninsula.
*The winters are relatively mild winters with considerable variation in snow cover and heavy rainfall from October through December.
*The average high temperature in January is -0.5 °C - one of the warmest for all of Newfoundland and Labrador.
*Surface wind speeds average 20–30 km/hour, with 50–80 km/h typically sustained during low pressure systems. Very strong gusts (120–140 km/h) are a common feature along the south coast.<ref>[http://www.heritage.nf.ca/environment/seasonal_winter.html Heritage Newfoundland]</ref>
*During strong Arctic air outbreaks the "windchill equivalent temperature" is typically in the -25 to -35 °C range on the island.
*July has an average high temperature of 20.6 °C, in August it is 21.1 °C. Summers are generally cooled by low clouds and fog.
*There is less fog in Grand Bank than at the other location on the south coast where records are kept. Fog can often be seen around Grand Bank when the community itself is free of it. This is thought to be caused by a combination of the inland hills and ridges that cause the fog to evaporate before it reaches the town.<ref>Atmospheric Environment Service. Canadian Climate Normals. Environment Canada</ref>
*Mean annual precipitation is 1461.1mm, which is high due to the occurrence of cyclonic storms and in which most of the precipitation falls as rain (1280.9mm or 81%).
*Snowfall in Grand Bank is about 180.2mm annually.
