New Brunswick, Canada
New Brunswick has a bit more of a continental flare than the other maritime provinces due partly to the fact that not all of its borders are on the sea. The urban centers of Saint John, Fredericton and Moncton are thriving with businesses, shops and a strong cultural scene. Its history is also diverse, with a wide range of European influences such as German, French and English.
