  • New Brunswick Day in Canada

    The area that is now the province of New Brunswick has been populated by First Nations communities for around 6000 years. In the 1600s and 1700s, the area was colonized by the French and later the British. In 1867, New Brunswick was one of the four provinces, which formed the Canadian Confederation. New Brunswick Day has been a holiday since 1976 and the New Brunswick Day awards were introduced in 1991.

    On the first Monday of August, the New Brunswick Day merit awards are presented to residents, businesses and organizations that work tirelessly to improve life in their city, town or village. In addition, many communities hold birthday parties for their province. These often include:
    1、A huge civic birthday cake that is distributed among residents.
    2、Live entertainment and music.
    3、Family activities such as face painting, storytellers and sports events.
    4、Large communal meals, such as a breakfast, barbecue or supper.

    Some areas may organize cooking competitions featuring local produce, such as Atlantic salmon or fiddleheads (the unfurled fronds of a fern), as well as road races or military displays.

    Some provincial symbols that may be seen on New Brunswick Day include:
    1、The coat of arms, which contains similar elements to the New Brunswick flag.
    2、The purple violet (a flower).
    3、The black-capped chickadee (a small bird).
    4、The balsam fir (a tree).
    5、The New Brunswick tartan.

    The New Brunswick flag is raised in some communities on the day. This flag is rectangular and consists of two parts. The top third of the flag is a gold lion on a red field, which represents the province's links with the Braunschweig (Brunswick) region in central Germany and the monarch of the United Kingdom. The lower part of the flag consists of a Spanish galley and represents shipbuilding, which was an important industry in the province.
