Explain the geography of New Brunswick, Canada.

New Brunswick covers 73,440 square kilometres in roughly a rectangle shape. Mt. Carleton, at 820 metres (2,690 feet), is the highest. The interior of the province is mostly rolling plateau virtually covered by forests. The eastem region is fairly flat, the southern terrain is rugged.

The St. John River, often called The Rhine of North America, splits the province from north to south.

In winter, average temperatures decrease noticeably from south to north
