The World

It’s not often we mention the words ?hurricane? and ?Canada? in the same sentence. Today’s Geo Quiz does just that. Hurricanes usually lose their ?umph? by the time they reach Canada, if they even reach that far north. But Igor behaved a little differently. The storm was still packing hurricane-force winds as it reached Newfoundland. We’re looking for a southern peninsula in Newfoundland that took a direct hit from Igor.

Name the peninsula in Newfoundland where Marystown is located.
