"Newfie" is an offensive slang term used in Canada for a person from Newfoundland and Labrador.
The term is primarily used in "Newfie jokes", the typical Canadian ethnic joke (akin to Polish jokes in the U.S. or Belgian jokes in France). To understand the nature of Newfie jokes, consider the analogy that Newfie jokes are to many Canadians what Redneck jokes are to Americans.
The term is considered very derogatory by a considerable majority of Newfoundlanders.
