After joining Canada in 1949, Newfoundland and Labrador underwent significant changes. The decline of traditional fisheries in the 1950s and 60s led to government-led resettlement programs aimed at modernizing the province. Communities like St. Leonard's were uprooted as families were moved from small, remote areas to larger, centralized locations. While these initiatives sought to improve economic conditions, they often resulted in hardship and the loss of tight-knit community bonds. As part of our 75 x 75 Project, we present "Out from St. Leonard's", a piece that delves into the personal stories of those affected by resettlement. Join us in reflecting on this profound chapter of our history and honouring the resilience of the people who lived through it.
