Hello Macleanstudio, I came across your walking tour of St. Johns and I think it is great. The great footage and music would make it a great contribution to the Canada’s Got Treasures collection, which aims to feature Canadian videos of personal or cultural significance. Help celebrate Canadian diversity by joining our group (/group/TresorTreasure) and submitting your video. It would be made available on our channel and website.

Hamish,

Canada's Got Treasures, a VMC initiative

I was born in Stephenville on Harmon USAFB in 1951, then we moved to St. Johns where my Sister was born in 1956. I loved the Rock and the people were great. I will be riding my harley around the Island next summer. I remember fishing for Cod at The Gut !! Oh Yeah, I love the song Brother. I toured with Johnny Winter & Edgar Winter in the early 70's, TIN HOUSE is the name of my band. We're on YouTube.

God dammit I threw something good away without even realizing it - I used to live there. I wish the fellow I was with could realize how sorry I actually am. I miss him to this day.

Ah geez bah, that's only one part of the rock, should have been round the coast or somtin like that, you get da real feel for newfies then, where do u think the kindness and hospitality originated from

@macleanstudio True , i live in Conception Bay south in Nl and i like it alot more around the bay ... it gives you the reall look at newfoundlands rugged coast and great heritage

Coming from St. John's and having walked that entire trail; I applaud him for showing a refreshing perspective on the downtown visual. So what, if McDonald Drive or Avalon Mall is not shown, it's understood that's not the entire city. As for bay vs townie, enough! This gentleman visited St. John's and he's sharing his experiences. Thank you ... I loved it!!!

I used to live there, then I moved to the Vancouver suburbs, and now to Maine! Can't wait to visit my family there this summer.

@jhughes420 I know you must have the answer but its 180,000. Plus use wikipedia, or google, to answer a question, it's wonderful. Not using youtube, hoping someone repsonds, then hoping they give the corret info.

[Shep11111]

@spiddeer No we don't. But try living in a place with 180,000 people only to visit the next biggest town of CB maybe and only see 25,000. I think you'll find most townies respect the bay, but if you're not from there and it's not what you're used to, then why love it? Plus who said so, why did you feel the need to say that. Just creates more animosity.

Nice video but it would be better that when people make these videos on St.John's or take pictures to also include the more "modern" parts of the city. I know plenty of people here on the mainland that think all us newfies live in old houses built on the sides of cliffs or think St.John's consists only of the old downtown and old row houses. When promoting St.John's, or any other part of Nfld, to show the modern neighborhoods and new homes etc etc...and we have malls.
