This town of 8,700 located on Lake Melville is the main service centre for Labrador. Its development has been tied with its large airport, now a training centre for NATO pilots.
Happy Valley-Goose Bay holds an annual canoe regatta and in March a winter carnival. The town is the starting point for hunting and fishing expeditions into the wilderness.
Visit the Labrador Heritage and Culture Centre on the former Canadian Forces base, and the new Labrador Interpretation Centre at nearby North West River |

Corner Brook is on the west coast of Newfoundland. Its population of 22,000 makes it Newfoundland's second largest city. Corner Brook's proximity to the spectacular Gros Morne National Park make it an ideal centre for touring. The salmon fishing here is world class, and skiing at nearby Marble Mountain is considered the best east of the Canadian Rockies.
Corner Brook has one of the largest pulp and paper mills in the world. It has an active arts scene at the Arts and Cultural Centre, and recreational facilities at the downtown Margaret Bowater Park. |
