Historical background
NEWFOUNDLAND
Following the Treaty of Utrecht in 1713, the French definitively ceded Newfoundland to the British. In 1824, the island became a Crown colony. In 1907, Newfoundland achieved Dominion status, but this status was suspended in 1934 due to the territory's excessive debt. In 1948, a referendum was held to ask the population about the territory's future. 52% of Newfoundlanders voted to join Canada. Newfoundland became Canada's tenth province in 1949..
