Ah, interesting. Canada has some weird stuff. Still Newfoundland and Nova Scotia are anglo.

Newfoundland was an Irish colony through and through. It's a miracle they stayed loyal this whole time IOTL.

In fact, it's a miracle that both Quebec AND Newfoundland stayed loyal, especially when they were a majority of Canada for quite a while.
 
The Welsh played a key role in the founding of the modern United States. Eighteen of the 56 co-signatories of the Declaration of Independence were of Welsh origin, and Welsh-Americans count Thomas Jefferson, Bob Hope and Frank Lloyd Wright among the distinguished Americas who trace their heritage back to the homeland.

Unlike the scots or the irish the Welsh don't bang their own drum.

That seems like it includes anyone with a Welsh ancestor. If you have three grandparents from England and one from Wales, that hardly makes you Welsh. :)
