 | What does the term "Newfie" mean to you and do you think Ottawa is giving
Newfoundland a raw deal concerning the Atlantic accord.

A lot of Newfoundlanders see the term "Newfie" the same os frog, swamp
canary, lily-pad jumper, frigging french parasite and other terms of
endearment.

=============================
"Newfies" are just nice people. They deserve to be respected. I never use
the term "Newfie" in a degrading manner.
I think that Newfowndland is getting a raw deal from Ottawa in the Atlantic
accord because Ottawa does not want to create another "Alberta" oil cartel.
Ottawa seems to have decided that Canadian oil, especially 'off shore',
belongs to all Canadians

I agree fully. It's their coast line at risk and should be entitled
to the same rights as it would be on dry land. Newfies need a break.
