The north-east corner of New Brunswick is home to the Acadian Peninsula. It is primarily a French-speaking area, with many of the local population being descended from the first French families who settled Canada in the 17th century.
Jean Robert (JR) is a proud Acadian and grew up outside of Shippagan, a small town close to the ‘tip’ of the Peninsula. The area is known for sandy beaches, historical sights and of course, great seafood!
