New Brunswick, also sometimes called "New Brunswick", is one of the ten provinces of Canada, part of the Maritime Provinces and the Atlantic provinces. New Brunswick was originally colonized by the French, and was part of the French colony of Acadia, part of New France. New Brunswick has a temperate climate. Regions located along the coast with temperatures more pleasant climate and a more unstable than the interior of the province. New Brunswick is one of only two Canadian provinces where Catholics are a majority in the province. New Brunswick's population is mostly English, but the province has a population francophone sizeable.
New Brunswick is one of Canada's three Maritime regions and is the only constitutionally bilingual province (French and English) in the federation. The well-known Reversing Falls are a sequence of waterfalls on the Saint John River. The inward tides from the Bay of Fundy force the falls to reverse their course and flow uphill twice a day, defying the force of gravity. New Brunswick is Canada’s merely legitimately bilingual province. English and French are the official provincial languages. New Brunswick's inner-city areas have modern, service-based economies subjugated by the health care, educational, retail, finance, and insurance sectors.
