Newfoundland and Labrador Housing Corporation (NLHC) is the housing arm of the provincial government. NLHC was incorporated on May 9, 1967, following a series of housing conferences held through the province. The aim in creating the new corporation was to provide an agency which would have the necessary legislative authority and the capacity to embark upon a major housing and land development program. In particular, it was to provide an organization which could respond adequately on a provincial basis to the various kinds of assistance available under the National Housing Act. When the Corner Brook Housing Corporation was disbanded in 1978, management of its portfolio was assumed by NLHC through the establishment of a regional office. In 1981, NLHC amalgamated with the St. John's Housing Corporation and, as a result, took over development of the Cowan Heights land assembly.

Harbour Breton has a magnificent land-locked harbour and is one of the oldest and largest fishing centres on the south coast of Newfoundland. This land-locked and ice-free harbour is located near the southern tip of the Connaigre Peninsula on the north side of Fortune Bay.The early history of the old ''Capital of Fortune Bay'' goes back to the Bretons (from Brittany, France) based at Placentia who fished from Hr. Breton in the 17th. Century. The 1687 French map of Nfld. shows Hr. Breton as Havre Bertrand and a census of the same year shows that it had no resident French families but it did have 36 fishing servants stationed in the harbour. In 1693, one fisherman, Pierre Germy was a resident of Havre Bertrand. A common French surname in Placentia was Bertrand and hence the French name for Harbour Breton. After the Treaty of Utrecht in 1713, the English dominance in Fortune Bay shows Havre Bertrand as Harbour Briton.
