Call yourselves whatever you want. You’re the best kind of people, and the rest of Canada enjoys your company.

The accent (dialect) is amazing. I hear Scots, Irish, and similarities to southern U.S. and hightider. One can see, through accent and dialect, the origins of early North American colonists. Being of Ulster-Scots descent, with ancestors who came to N. America in the late 1600s, this sort of thing speaks to me.

I lived in Alberta from 1980 to 1988 locals there used it in a derogatory way.

As Allan Doyle (Great Big Sea) once remarked regarding 'mainlanders saying "Yis b'y!" after St. John's Ice Caps goals because the locals did, "It's what's in your heart when you say it."

[@Dennnis10B]

It's common knowledge across Canada that Newfoundlanders are the kindest and greatest people in the Country...so be proud people...Denis from Calgary Alberta...

[@paddycoombes9455]

Goofy Newfie she doesn’t even realize that’s offensive

[@stayjit1]

If a Newfoundlander says "Noofinlanner", he's a Newfie.
