I came across this - thought it funny - and then wondered.
I have always referred to Newfoundland as a Province but also knew that Labrador was never mentioned as a Province of itself. It is not a territory but its a geographical and cultural region of the Province of Newfoundland and Labrador. That is the provinces official name.
Sorry it's fuzzy, must be a foggy snowstorm there.
Just thought it was interesting, I'm sure most Canadians know this but thought to share with others.
Guess it is sort of like in the States it is the Commonwealth of Virginia, but still a State.
No, I am not from there although my dad was from New Brunswick - a Maritimer.
