Will Newfoundland ever disappear in the ocean because of a tsunami?

No because Newfoundland is not hot enough for any tropical storm, including tsunamis. Newfoundland is in Canada. And Canada is a non tropical country because it is in the northern hemisphere . So it is extremely rare and very unlikely that Canada will ever have a tropical storm like hurricanes, tornadoes, earthquakes, and tsunamis. And no tsunami will be ever big enough to sink the whole island of Newfoundland.
