About New Brunswick
New Brunswick is one of eastern Canada's Maritime provinces. It encompasses rivers, pine forest, mountains and the Bay of Fundy, known for extreme tides and whale-watching. The port city of St. John is home to the New Brunswick Museum, with local artwork dating to the 1800s, and the long-standing St. John City Market's many food stalls. To the southwest is Reversing Falls, where rapids flow backwards at high tide.

Trudeau slams 'unacceptable' protests as police warn truckers
Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau has hit out at protests by truckers around the country as " unacceptable".
Speaking to parliament in Ottawa, he defended the federal Covid mandates that have prompted truckers to converge on The Nation 's capital.
Ottawa police meanwhile warned protesters could be arrested, and a conviction might cost them their jobs.
The nationwide protests against coronavirus restrictions have been going on for Two Weeks .
" Blockages, illegal demonstrations are unacceptable, and are negatively impacting businesses and manufacturers, " Mr Trudeau said.
" We must do everything to bring them to an end. "
On Monday, Mr Trudeau returned to Parliament following a week-long isolation after he caught coronavirus, saying the protesters are " trying to blockade our economy, our democracy and our fellow citizens' daily lives".
" It has to stop. "
Since Monday drivers have been blocking the largest international Suspension Bridge in The World at a Border crossing that makes up around a quarter of US-Canada trade.
The closure of the Ambassador Bridge by about 100 protesters in their Big Rigs has been denounced by trade groups.
About 400 trucks remain in downtown Ottawa after arriving there late last month. Police said on Wednesday that the protesters could be charged with " mischief to property" due to their blocking of local residents' " lawful use, enjoyment and operation of their property".
Ottawa police warned that " anyone blocking streets or assisting others in the blocking of streets may be committing a criminal offence".
They added that a criminal conviction could result in seizure of their vehicles, and an inability to enter the US. The Police force also hiked penalties for noise, engine idling and other infractions in The City to C$1,000 ($790, £585) per offence.
The truckers are protesting against a rule requiring truckers entering Canada to be fully immunised against coronavirus. The demonstrators have also voiced opposition to Covid passports and mask mandates.
Mr Trudeau has refused to budge on federal Covid measures - including a vaccination mandate for truckers crossing the US-Canada Border - Even as provinces begin lifting their restrictions.
Alberta, Saskatchewan, Quebec and Prince Edward Island have all announced plans to lift most mitigation measures this month. Nova Scotia and New Brunswick has also announced plans to lift some restrictions.
On Tuesday, Alberta Premier Jason Kenney said pandemic-related restrictions had " disrupted and Even destroyed livelihoods" in the province.
In Coutts, Alberta, on The Border with the US state of Montana, RCMP officers warned they would take enforcement action later on Wednesday to remove dozens of trucks that have been blocking that international crossing for about Two Weeks .
" Really it's going to be up to them, " said RCMP Superintendent Roberta McKale, calling on them to move on their own.
" Up until this point it's been us asking them and this afternoon we don't have an option, we're going to have to use our enforcement options to have that happen. "
