A Minister in Newfoundland and Labrador’s provincial government is asking Vrbo to remove a Super Bowl ad that has upset Newfoundlanders.

A minister in Newfoundland and Labrador’s provincial government has asked Vrbo, a marketplace for vacation rentals, to take down an ad that he claims demeans a cherished folk song and the province.

Crocker said his department has received "innumerable complaints" about the commercial, and even more since Sunday evening. Korona Brophy, who works with folk music group The Celtic Fiddlers, said the song is a big piece of Newfoundland’s history, and that Vrbo's use of it was a disgrace. The commercial drew a lot of criticism on social media platforms like X, formerly Twitter, and Facebook.
