Solution
The correct option is B Eastern Newfoundland
The cold Labrador Current brings nine months winter to Eastern Newfoundland.
The Labrador Current is a cold current in the North Atlantic Ocean. It flows from the Arctic Ocean along the coast of Labrador. It passes around Newfoundland and continues south along the east coast of Nova Scotia.
The Newfoundland coast of North America is ice-bound for nearly eight to nine months in a year under the influence of the cold Labrador Current.
