Shut up, Newfie pub

From The Southern Gazette, the paper down on the Burin Peninsula, comes a story on local band EvenTide.

The band has also travelled to Dartmouth, Nova Scotia, to showcase its talent at the well-known ‘Newfie Pub’.

And from The Toronto Sun comes an incongruous reference in a story about Stompin' Tom.

...the old man would sit in the kitchen and grouse, "when is that Newfie going to shut the hell up, so we can play some real music?"
