The area we now call New Brunswick was originally a part of the British colony of Nova Scotia (as was Prince Edward Island). On August 16, 1784, Britain separated New Brunswick from Nova Scotia and created it as a separate colony. New Brunswick is now one of Canada's provinces, the only officially bilingual one. It was one of the colonies that united in 1867 to form Canada through what we call 'Confederation.'
