Шаблон:Infobox referendum A referendum on the introduction of prohibition was held in Newfoundland on 4 November 1915.[1] It would prohibit unauthorised people from possessing or consuming any drinks with an alcohol content of more than 2%.[1]

The rules required that at least 40% of registered voters vote in favour of the proposal for it to pass.[1] With 24,956 voting in favour, the quorum of 24,581 was narrowly passed, and prohibition was introduced on 1 January 1917.[1] It remained in force until 1924, when a quota system for purchasing alcoholic drinks was introduced.[1] That was scrapped on 31 March 1966.[1]
