Who were the native people in Newfoundland before the arrival of the Europeans?

The Native Americans were exploited, hunted and over ran by the Europeans like many other indigenous people in many other lands only now are people beginning to regret the actions of our forbearers I think I would have loved to have been born on the plains when they were untouched following the herds and being at one with nature

Human nature is a dark thing

The first Europeans to arrive in Newfoundland were Norse people from their Greenland colonies, but the question, and it's answer, seems to ignore that...

The Beothuk were in NF; the Cree were big in many other provinces.
