GLEN TALKS ABOUT NEWFOUNDLAND  

  "I consider myself an Irish Newfie." 
~~ Glen Doyle ~~

 

"I'm from Newfoundland. I live in Toronto, I was educated in Toronto but this [NFLD] is where I was spit out into the world."

 
"I always relate as much as I can to being born in Newfoundland."

 
"I was born on THE ROCK
(Newfoundland, not the Wrestler)..."

 

"I kept very close to my Newfie/Irish roots. Because of this, I find my writing very honest, straight-forward, and from the heart -- pretty much the traits of a lot of Newfoundlanders."

 
"My Dad is from Avondale..."

 
"I want Newfoundland to be an internationally-known place."

 

"If you ever want to go to Ireland and not leave Canada, you go to Newfoundland."
