Edmundston
Edmundston, a compact city in northern New Brunswick on the Saint John River, is the second-largest majority-francophone city in Canada outside Quebec — a distinction that shapes its café culture and walkable centre. Established in 1850, it sits close to the mountains of the surrounding region, with scenic viewpoints in the area and a riverside setting that gives the town much of its character.
