What is unique and cool about your province? My province is Newfoundland & Labrador.

St. Johns Newfoundland is the oldest city in North America.

The first wireless signal was received on signal hill in St. Johns.

The Newfoundland accent is said to be closest to the English/British accent of all the western world. Also, you can go to different parts of Newfoundland and hear completely different dialects.
