new brunswick 

maritime canadian province, often forgotten by the rest of canada. only other place in canda with a significant french population, although they still only consititue 25% of the people. americans tried to make it join the usa after the 1776 revolution, but new brunwick was indifferent. really not much going on here today.

nova scotia 

canada's vacationland. unfortunately, most people forget about it, except when they want to get away from citylife in toronto or ottawa. beautiful coastline, amazing scenery. province is in bad shape financial though. home of three great things that start with s- seafood, sloan, and sidney crosby.
I add amazing scallops while listening to Sloan and watching Sidney Crosby on TV while in Nova Scotia.

Prince Edward Island 

little PEI, barely a province. nobody lives here. nice scenery but not much else. most tourists come here on a day trip to see anne of green gables, the province's claim to fame, then leave. but they do have a sweet bridge.

newfoundland 

the eastermost province, way out there in the atlantic. has its own special timezone, cause it makes em bad ass. newfies is the pejoritive word for them, it stereotypes them as hick fisherman. they're not, but it is true that they live liqour. and curling, which is actually as popular as hockey there. newfoundland is an interesting story. it was a country for a bout 15 years in the early 1900s, then ran itself into the ground financially. their gov't asked the brits the make them a colony again in the 1930s, which they did. then the brits asked canada if they wanted newfoundland and canada said "why the hell not?" and took it.
newfoundland is the only country in world history to voluntarily give up independence and become a colony.
