Newfoundlanders who fled cod moratorium are returning — and creating a housing crunch

  • Newfoundlanders, who previously left due to the cod moratorium, are now returning, creating a housing shortage in New-Wes-Valley.
  • Mayor Tiller expressed concern that lack of homes could prevent the town's growth, stating, "You can't have people coming here looking for homes and not have anything for them to live in."
  • The town has approximately 2,050 residents, with over a third being 65 or older, reflecting the demographics of rural Newfoundland.
