Canada Opens Door to Newfoundland as Potential Province
Ottawa offered to admit Newfoundland into the federal union on terms described by Prime Minister W. L. Mackenzie King. Terms include absorbing 63 million of the island’s 373 million debt, with Canada taking over the railway, communications system, Gander Airport, the steamship service, and the broadcasting service. The decision rests with Newfoundland’s 312,000 residents and follows the island’s 1930s self government decline amid financial troubles.
