August1991 Posted July 27, 2005 Report Posted July 27, 2005 $2 million fishing boats, and 50000 pound shrimp catches. Fresh cod on the dining room table, oil rents for Confederation Building coffers, new housing developments in Gander and high condo fees in St. John's. I have never seen Newfoundland so prosperous.
