      landside
      of
      the
     
     
      bunker.
      These
     
     
      bunkers,
      like
     
     
      most
      coastal
     
     
      outposts
      in
     
     
      Newfoundland,
     
     
      have
      been
      carved
     
     
      into
      the
      side
      of
     
     
      the
      sea.
      Time
      has
     
     
      taken
      its
      toll
      on
     
     
      both
      of
      these
     
     
      manmade
      crea-
     
     
      tions...
     
    
   
   
    
     
      ...and
      time
      is
     
     
      something
      that
     
     
      has
      made
      the
      city
     
     
      itself
      so
      quaint.
      I
     
     
      had
      an
      opportu-
     
     
      nity
      to
      walk
      on
     
     
      Water
      Street,
     
     
      Canada’s
      oldest
     
     
      boulevard.
      The
     
     
      buildings
      are
     
     
      each
      unique
      in
     
     
      their
      own
      colour
     
     
      pattern
      and
      most
     
     
      do
      not
      rise
      above
     
     
      three
      storeys.
     
     
      The
      core
      is
      built
     
     
      on
      a
      hill
      with
      its
     
     
      passages
      origi-
     
     
      nally
      created
      for
     
     
      pedestrian
      traffic
     
     
      (no
      cars).
      Stairs
     
     
      run
      down
      along
     
    
   
   
    
     
      the
      seams
      of
      the
     
     
      core
      with
      a
      surprise
     
     
      lurking
      in
      every
     
     
      passage.
      The
      charm
     
     
      of
      the
      street
      is
      in
      its
     
     
      age,
      its
      architecture
     
     
      serving/surviving
     
     
      the
      test
      of
      time.
      But
     
     
      perhaps
      St.John’s
     
     
      most
      famous
      avenue
     
     
      is

      is
     
     
      probably
      a
      safe
     
     
      thing).
      A

      The

      itself
      is
      not
     
     
      very
      long

      And
      this
     
     
      seems
      to
      be
      the

      ...as
      I
      pull
      away
     
     
      from
      Cape
      Spear,
      I
     
     
      sense

      be
      a

      Some-
     
     
      thing
      about
      being
     
     
      on
      the
      end
      of
      a
     
     
      continent
      has
      a
     
     
      strange
      appeal
      to
     
    
   
   
    
     
      me.
      I
      wonder
      if
      it
     
     
      had
      the
      same
      -
     
     
      appeal
      to
      the
      late
     
     
      Beotuks.
      In
      one
     
     
      of
      our
      countries
     
     
      darker
      episodes,
     
     
      we
      managed
      to
     
     
      wipe
      out
      one
      of
     
     
      the
      first
      Native
     
     
      peoples
      we
      came
     
     
      across.
      This
      tribe
     
     
      used
      to
      paint
     
     
      their
      faces
      red.
     
     
      When
      the
      first
     
     
      white
      men
      en-
     
     
      countered
      them
     
     
      they
      described
     
     
      them
      as
      Red
     
     
      Indians.
      The
      label
     
     
      has
      stuck
      al-
     
     
      though
      it
      only
     
     
      identifies
      a
      small
     
     
      amount
      of
      tribes.
     
     
      As
      sad
      as
      it
      is,
      as
     
     
      long
      as
      we
      use
     
     
      this
      racist
      termi-
     
     
      nology

      the

      the
