New Brunswick

Submitted by mhabich on

New Brunswick is one of the Atlantic Provinces of Canada, and the only province in the country with both English and French as official languages. While the province covers a land area the size of Ireland, there are only 780,000 inhabitants (2020), most of them along the coasts and in the Saint John River valley. The inland consists of sparsely populated forest.

The Mi'kmaq is the dominant First Nation (Indigenous people) in New Brunswick.
