The province of Newfoundland and Labrador will celebrate 50 years of confederation in 1999. Much has been written about the events that led up to confederation in 1949 but very little has been written and published about how the Dominion of Canada perceived Newfoundland.

Did they want Newfoundland to join the Dominion of Canada? What did they know about the people of Newfoundland, their lifestyles and their hopes and dreams?

NF Interactive invites you to join us as we take a look at pre-confederation Newfoundland as seen from the eyes of journalists from the Dominion of Canada.
