My family never went there; like many Quebecers, we traveled to Miami to escape bone-chilling winters rather than tour Canada.

My first inkling of Newfoundland’s uniqueness came during my taxi drive from the airport in St. John’s, the capital, when the grandfatherly driver greeted me with a hearty “Whaddayat?” (“How’s it going?”).

Clinging for dear life to a handrail made of metal chain as I ascended a cliff edge above the rocky ocean, I was awed by the expansive view of St. John’s waterfront, the pastel-colored houses dotting the trail and the steep, vertigo-inducing drop that nearly made me recoil and turn back. The Quidi Vidi neighborhood in St. John’s, Newfoundland, known for its brewery and artistic community. Chris Donovan for The New York Times The beauty of the landscape is part of what has been drawing thousands of newcomers to the Atlantic provinces in recent months, many seeking rural idylls.

The town is famously featured in the Canadian version of the song “This Land is Your Land.” It owes its name to Giovanni Caboto, a freelance Venetian explorer who reportedly exclaimed, “O buon vista” (“Oh, happy sight!”) when he spotted the town in 1497. In Bonavista, I met [Barbara Houston](~/AAAAAQA~/RgRjoERqP0S3aHR0cHM6Ly93d3cuYmFyYmFyYWhvdXN0b24uY2EvP2NhbXBhaWduX2lkPTUwJmVtYz1lZGl0X2NuZGFfMjAyMTEyMTgmaW5zdGFuY2VfaWQ9NDgxNjgmbmw9Y2FuYWRhLWxldHRlciZyZWdpX2lkPTc3Njc0OTUyJnNlZ21lbnRfaWQ9NzczODkmdGU9MSZ1c2VyX2lkPWFhNDkxZWY3ZjFkOTY0ZTQ5NzlmYjc4NGU3NGUwMWQ3VwNueXRCCmG7ar-9YVUjFyBSG3RyaXN0cmFtYmFsZHdpbjkwQGdtYWlsLmNvbVgEAAAAAA~~), an artist born in Saskatchewan who had moved there from Vancouver, drawn by the painterly landscape, sense of community and the low cost of living. A successful former architect turned artist whose work has included sculptures of sheep made from kelp, she is building a sleek geometric home studio overlooking the sea for about 325,000 Canadian dollars. Such an affordable space would’ve be unimaginable in Vancouver, she said. “I wanted to pursue my dream of being an artist,” she told me. “Here, everyone knows your name,” she said, adding that the open skies reminded her of growing up in Saskatchewan. The arrival of dozens of “come from awayers” like Ms. Houston is helping to revitalize Bonavista’s economy after years of brain drain that followed the collapse of Newfoundland’s cod stocks. But there are also tensions, mainly over exploding housing prices. Ms. Houston also told me she was taken aback after a Pentecostal preacher at a church near her studio gave a “fire and brimstone” speech, blasted on outdoor speakers, condemning abortion and same-sex marriage.

Pastel-colored heritage homes overlooking the sea are just one of the draws of Bonavista, Newfoundland. Chris Donovan for The New York Times Newfoundland isn’t the only place benefiting from pandemic pilgrims. In Windsor, Nova Scotia, Stefan Palios, a business consultant from Toronto, told me how he and his partner had recently traded in their 450-square-foot one-bedroom Toronto apartment for a handsome seven-bedroom Victorian house, which they bought this year for about 350,000 Canadian dollars.

Then there is the quiet. “It’s definitely a slower place,” he said. “It takes some getting used to.” Trans Canada A memorial made up of children’s shoes and toys at the former Mohawk Institute Residential School in Six Nations of the Grand River, Ontario.Tara Walton for The New York Times - In Ontario, my colleague Ian Austen [reported](~/AAAAAQA~/RgRjoERqP0TwaHR0cHM6Ly93d3cubnl0aW1lcy5jb20vMjAyMS8xMi8xMS93b3JsZC9jYW5hZGEvbWlzc2luZy1pbmRpZ2Vub3VzLWNoaWxkcmVuLXBvbGljZS5odG1sP2NhbXBhaWduX2lkPTUwJmVtYz1lZGl0X2NuZGFfMjAyMTEyMTgmaW5zdGFuY2VfaWQ9NDgxNjgmbmw9Y2FuYWRhLWxldHRlciZyZWdpX2lkPTc3Njc0OTUyJnNlZ21lbnRfaWQ9NzczODkmdGU9MSZ1c2VyX2lkPWFhNDkxZWY3ZjFkOTY0ZTQ5NzlmYjc4NGU3NGUwMWQ3VwNueXRCCmG7ar-9YVUjFyBSG3RyaXN0cmFtYmFsZHdpbjkwQGdtYWlsLmNvbVgEAAAAAA~~) on how an Indigenous community is collaborating with law enforcement to search for the unmarked graves of residential school children. - The Times’s Obituary desk has published its list of [2021’s notable deaths](~/AAAAAQA~/RgRjoERqP0TgaHR0cHM6Ly93d3cubnl0aW1lcy5jb20vaW50ZXJhY3RpdmUvMjAyMS9vYml0dWFyaWVzL25vdGFibGUtZGVhdGhzLmh0bWw_Y2FtcGFpZ25faWQ9NTAmZW1jPWVkaXRfY25kYV8yMDIxMTIxOCZpbnN0YW5jZV9pZD00ODE2OCZubD1jYW5hZGEtbGV0dGVyJnJlZ2lfaWQ9Nzc2NzQ5NTImc2VnbWVudF9pZD03NzM4OSZ0ZT0xJnVzZXJfaWQ9YWE0OTFlZjdmMWQ5NjRlNDk3OWZiNzg0ZTc0ZTAxZDdXA255dEIKYbtqv71hVSMXIFIbdHJpc3RyYW1iYWxkd2luOTBAZ21haWwuY29tWAQAAAAA).
