Howdy - we spent 5 weeks in June/July in Newfoundland with a side trip to Labrador in 2015. 8 weeks from Alabama and back is about the minimum, I'd say, with the New England states just being a quick pass-through. We put about 5000 miles on the rig, and we're in NH, just 800 miles from North Sydney, NS. Great place to visit - LOTS to see. Do a search of the forums for Newfoundland, quite a few threads on travel there. Two items to note - many places do not have potable water - posted boil orders in effect. Simple sediment water filter is NOT adequate - either have a better system in place (we use ceramic now) or used bleach to sanitize the water coming in after the filter. Also, Newfoundland roads, even the Trans Canada, can be pretty rough - lots of potholes, etc., so don't count on making any time - slow down and enjoy it! PM me if you can't find my older posts.
