就是加拿大最东面的Newfoundland 纽芬兰,没有直飞航班,到温哥华的机票比回中国还贵。
一个小朋友(怎么我的朋友都是小朋友?:wdb4: )在那里的圣约翰读博士,来维多利亚参加学术会议,顺便在我家度个周末。

估计BC省的难得去那里。把她的PP在这里show一下,

风景很美。不过也许不太适合新移民。记得以前在其他论坛看到一个移民自己写的经历。他为了让自己有个语言环境,到爱德华王子岛去读书。语言环境是好,没什么中国人的。可是他高估了自己的适应能力,最后受不了回流了。其实刚来的时候在大城市落脚会有很多的便利,等适应了再往其他地方去不迟。小城市风景好,人少,相对工作机会也有限。有的家庭还要考虑读书,小孩教育等问题。在这里搬家,不管是在一个地区还是跑个上千公里是很稀松平常的事。

忘了说,有意思的是,那里的人很纯朴。小姑娘看到一个老太太广告找租客,去了一看,好大的房子就老太太一个人住,当然说了“YES”。想不到老太太问小姑娘:“你要我付给你多少钱一个月?”
原来老太是找个HOUSEMATE。
现在小姑娘无需出租金,老太太无需出HOUSEMATE工钱,还变着法儿做西餐让小姑娘白吃。那个读书的小姑娘在那里呆得太幸福了,所以硕士毕业不想工作,继续读博士,反正有奖学金。

纽芬兰省(New Foundland)


纽芬兰省位于加拿大东北角,括纽芬兰及拉布拉多 (New Foundland & Labrador),是加拿大最年轻的省份,1949年才加入加拿大联邦,成为加拿大第十个省。面积40万5,720平方公里,大部分土地都是人迹罕至的森林,沼泽、湖泊和山岭。以海为生是本地一大特点.全省54万居民分布于沿岸的小城市,他们多以捕鱼为生。由于冬季海港冰封,渔船不能出海,渔民都过着半年捕鱼,半年领取政府失业救济金过活,加上近年各国政府不断扩阔沿岸捕鱼领域,加拿大渔船能进入作业的渔场越来越少,渔民的收入大受影响。年青人口流失率相当严重。
由于纽芬兰在地理位置上偏离加拿大其他省份,又跟欧洲大陆有一海之隔,在长期独自发展下,纽芬兰居民的文化各语言与别省不同,他们说的英语不仅保留十六世纪的爱尔兰口音,在用字也有别于标准英语。
纽芬兰的气候不错,海风起调节气温的作用,冬天不太冷,夏天不算热,首府圣约翰(St. John's)至今已有500年的历史,1000年以前北欧人就在此活动,是北美最古老的城市。

哈,这个帖子又出来了。我们学校这个学期的口语考试是选择加拿大的一个省做介绍。我就选了Newfoundland and Labrador。下面是偶准备的。。。

Newfoundland and Labrador

Location: North-eastern corner of North America

Land area: 405,720 km²

Population: Over 500,000 people, 2nd smallest population in the country

Capital City: St. Johns

1. History

2.Culture

3.Industries

4.Problem


1. History (The Earliest Inhabitant)

1) The Earliest inhabitant - Beothuk

Beothuk is now considered as the earliest inhabitant in Newfoundland and Labrador. “Beothuk” means "people" in the Beothuk language. Most of them lived on fishing.

2) Immigrant started from 1000 years ago - Northern European

The Vikings (sea rovers/robbers) from Northern Europe first landed in Newfoundland and Labrador more than 1000 years ago. Since then many explorers had visited this province. Between the 16th & 18th centuries, fishermen from European nations settled in the sheltered bays of this province to catch fish.

3) The Conflict between Europeans and Beothuk

The 1st conflict was occurred around 1006 when parties of Norsemen attempted to establish permanent settlements along the coast. According to Norse sayings, the native people responded so strong that the newcomers eventually gave up their original intentions to settle. Then Norsemen went and came, fighting continued for hundreds years.

When other Europeans arrived, beginning with John Cabot in 1497, contact with the Beothuks was established. But no exact figure was given about how many Beothuks on the island at this time, it was vary from 1,000 to 5,000.

As European settlement became year-round (not only visit) and expanded to new areas of the coast, the area available to the native Beothuks to do fishing was gradually reduced. By the beginning of the 19th century there were few Beothuks remaining, many having been killed in misunderstandings with settlers or having died because they lack of food or medicine. Government tried to open a dialogue with the native peoples of Newfoundland, but it was too late to save them.

The culture of Beothuks is now extinct, remembered only in museum, historical and archaeological records. (Now this province does have some native people there, mainly Indians. There are even tribes in some parts of Newfoundland. But they are only minority.)

4) The 10th and newest province in Canada 1949, Newfoundland, In 2002, the official name of the province changed to “Newfoundland and Labrador”.

2. Cultural

1) Music and Spoken English - with Scottish and Irish accents

The culture of a certain place is also related with its history. It is one of the few places left in the Americas where you can still hear the Scottish and Irish accents clearly. Form 16th to 18th centuries, nasty landlords in England did not want tenant farmers paying small rents when they could get more money from sheep farming. The landlords drove the tenant out of the farm. It was called the “land clearances” in England history. So, Many Scottish and Irish tenant farmers immigrated to and settled in the Newfoundland and Labrador. That is why the people in Newfoundland and Labrador still keep old British accents.

Even the music from this province now still has deep Scottish & Irish roots. A couple of years ago, there was a group of singers who were called themselves as “Island Girls”, gave a performance tour in Europe where they received big welcome, as they sang songs with superb traditional music. Also a Band in Newfoundland called “The Cottars (farmers in Scotland) ” would remind you the Scottish songs in old days.

2) Art ? The Rooms and Symbols of The Province

The province has many libraries and museums. People can experience the richness of its local and international arts. The Art Rooms which unites the Provincial Museum, the Provincial Art Gallery and the Provincial Archives under one roof. It has the newest world class facility, and plays host to travelling exhibitions and artists. (Same as Granville Island in Vancouver)

In the Rooms, you can see many works of the wildlife. The culture of a certain place is always related with its geography. The whale is one of the symbols of Newfoundland, and the other one is a bird called puffin. They are most abundant in the Bird Island in Bay Bulls (a place for whale and puffin watching).

Here is one of the arts. (Sample show) It is a unique work and is reproduced and hand painted from an original wildlife painting on Slate (A piece of the rock cut for use as roofing or surfacing material or as a writing surface). You feel the whale is attached to the slate when you touch it because of the thickness of the paint or colorants.

3) Life style ? Simple, Relax and Interesting

The most impressive thing there is the people. People are extremely nice, friendly and kind. May be because of their non-stressful lifestyle. Normally they are relaxed and hardly get stressed, and that explains why most of them live a long long life. Someone in his or her 80s is considered young. People in there 90s and even above 100 are seen quite often.

a. The winter is extremely long there from early November to next late May. Skiing, snowshoeing and snowmobiling are popular among residents and tourists.

b. Summer makes everyone excited. Local people get close to Mother Nature and meanwhile get some nice food. One of the Popular Local Activities in Summer is Berry picking. Berries grow in bush, which is a short plant in mountain area. Normally they are about 20-30 cm in height. You have to sit down on the ground or bend your knees to get the berries.

c. Local people make Blueberry Jam since they can not eat the berries all at a time. The community Centers often hold “Regional Jam competition”. Every family brings the Jam having made at home to the public house. They taste various Jam and even have a ranking for them.

d. Newfoundland blueberry and apple jams are famous throughout Canada, especially those home made jams. They are not from manufactories and without preservatives present. (Sample)

3. Industries

Major industries: Oil & Gas, Mining, Forestry, Tourism, Fishery, Farming, Service and Culture.

1) Fishery - collapsed in the late 1990’s

Until the late 20th century Newfoundland and Labrador was home to one of the world’s richest fisheries.

A collapse of the fishery occurred in the late 1990’s due to over-fishing. Decades of over-fishing by local fisherman as well as Europeans has depleted the wild stocks of some fish species such as Atlantic cod.

2) Oil & Gas, Mining - Major industries

Today the province’s economy has expanded, particularly in the area of oil and gas exploration. Several large oil fields have been discovered in this provincial waters and are currently being explored and developed. Newfoundland and Labrador is becoming a world leader in its oil and gas exploration. Labrador ? one of the world’s largest nickel discoveries.

3) Housing & Real Estate ? affordable

Affordable housing is available throughout the province of Newfoundland and Labrador. In comparison to major Canadian cities, home ownership rates tend to be proportionally higher in Newfoundland and Labrador.

People from outside Newfoundland (even from different countries) purchase nice cottages near the coast. Those cottages only cost around10,000 $ per. It is a small house with all the facilities for water and electricity. Heating device is not normally seen, because the owners only spent the summer holiday there.

The price for a regular house is basically around 100,000 to 200,000 CAD.(much nicer than houses in eastern of Vancouver)

(Show Photos)

Problem (decrease in population)

The decrease in population was caused by :

1) net out-migration. The number of people entered Newfoundland and Labrador from other provinces and territories is less than people left the province for other parts of Canada.

2) Net international migration is also negative figure in the previous four years.

3) Natural population change has been declining significantly over the past decade due mainly to falling births. The province will soon be faced with persistent negative natural population change (i.e., the number of deaths will exceed the number of births, even the death rate is so low - long life).

Questions:

1) Is there any Beothuk left in Newfoundland and Labrador now? Why? They died by being killed, staving and sickness.

1) What are the Symbols of Newfoundland and Labrador?- Whale and Puffin?

2) Can you tell how is the Art Rooms look like?

3) What does it cause Fishery collapse in the late 1990’s? ? Over fishing

5) What is the Problem of Newfoundland and Labrador - Decrease in population

纽芬兰的确挺漂亮,尤其是夏天。

气候还可以,不象听说的冷。冬天也就-10,夏天25,6左右。
暴风雪挺讨厌的。

城市比较小,大部分是当地白人居民,十分友好。
工作机会比较少,收入较低,吃的很贵。
房价便宜。

那里的房子,其它地方都在跌,只有那个地方还在涨,不过总的还是很便宜。我们今年也差一点点搬到那边去了。那边要回国飞机就比较不便了。冬天没船航行,只能靠飞机。而且经常不是雪天就是雾天。不过纽芬兰确实非常漂亮。
