    Not at all surprised. I have lived in Labrador since my teens and when I went to N. Ireland with a friend (from Ontario) I understood everyone perfectly while she struggled. So this makes perfect sense to me.

    It’s not just Nfld that has this linguistic connection to N. Ireland (or ALL of Ireland). It’s all of Atlantic Canada.

      Not really. The accent in Newfoundland is a thick Irish one. You dont find that anywhere else in Canada.

      I'm an Irish Newfoundlander, most of my ancestors were from the south, Waterford, Wexford, Kilkenny, but I have a couple that came from the North, Ulster, that settled in the Conception Bay area. But, I'm talking 200 years ago.

      Muff is a tiny village about a mile away from the Northern Ireland/ Republic of Ireland border on the Republic of Ireland side, and, joking aside, yes they do genuinely have a diving club, are aware of the connotations of using the obvious name and instead are known as the Foyle Diving Club, taking the name of the river on which Muff sits.
