I stumbled across this thread when looking for the words to a song. Newfoundland is not '70% Catholic' It's 60% Protestant and about 35% Catholic. St John's, though, does have a majority Catholic population which presumably is the reason for this perception that Newfoundland is overwhelmingly Irish-Catholic. The 2001 census also shows that for every person of Irish origin, there are two of English origin. Patrick O'Flaherty's book 'Olde Newfoundland' has an excellent chapter on how the island refused to allow the religious conflicts of Ireland to be re-enacted there.
