In the next installment of our 75x75 series, we speak to the remarkable Nora Normore, who at 104 years old, reminisces about the times leading up to and after Confederation. Through her wisdom and cherished memories, Nora illustrates Newfoundland and Labrador's rich history and enduring spirit. Nora's unique story is a rare treasure, and we are honoured to share it with you today.
