Hey, @angusreidinstitute.bsky.social.
Are you responsible for this?
We’re actually called ‘Newfoundlanders’.
We’ve long since stopped being the butt of jokes.
If you’re looking for our input, perhaps a little respect in your request would serve you better.

Personally, I stopped calling myself a Newfie when living in ON and BC when I realized nobody else was getting the joke and they thought all the stereotypes and negative connotations were true. They certainly weren't saying it with love.
