Thank you Fred for this series! It is a refreshing lesson for what Humanity is capable of in dark moments while we are experiencing a time of grievance, hatred and fear!

Thanks, Fred! Since 9/11 i have remarried, and My husband has a daughter in Labrador and grandchildren in St. John's. Newfoundland was the only province i had never been to. I then understood the welcoming nature of all Newfoundlanders and Labradorians. We went to see "Come from away" and even better understood the open doors that Newfoundland offered to strangers.... now friends. ❤️🇨🇦🥰

Newfoundland is my favorite province. It's beautiful and the people are so friendly.

You are writing this series at a perfect point in time Fred- decent folk simply doing the right thing in a time of need. At 70 I remember this clearly and felt pride then and even more now. Thank you🤗

So there's a lesson in this, loud and clear. "Be a Newfoundlander". Do you think the world just might be a better, kinder world? I think we all know the answer to that.

“We re all Americans tonight”. That s where it came from. They thought we meant it literally.
