New Brunswick (French:Nouveau-Brunswick; pronounced:[nu.vo.bʁœn.swik], Quebec French pronunciation: [nu.vo.bʁɔn.zwɪk]) is one of Canada's three Maritime provinces and is the only constitutionallybilingual (English–French) province. It was created as a result of the partitioning of the British Colony of Nova Scotia in 1784. Fredericton is the capital, Moncton is the largest metropolitan (CMA) area and Saint John is the most populous city. In the 2011 nationwide census, Statistics Canada estimated the provincial population to have been 751,171. The majority of the population is English-speaking, but there is also a large Francophone minority (33%), chiefly of Acadian origin. The flag features a ship superimposed on a yellow background with a yellow lion above it.
Etymology
The province is named for the city of Braunschweig, known in English as Brunswick, located in modern-day Lower Saxony in northern Germany (and also the former duchy of the same name). The then-colony was named in 1784 to honour the reigning British monarch, George III. Braunschweig is the ancestral home of the British monarch George I and his successors (the House of Hanover).
From the northern terminus on the Trans-Canada Highway, Exit 75, the route loops around passing the eastern terminus of Route 144. Route 108 follows an access road built in 2003 to the former Trans-Canada Highway, then runs southeast along its old alignment to the edge of the town of Grand Falls. The road passes through the town as "Madawaska Road", passing the Grand Falls Generating Station, then the northern terminus of Route 130, and leaves along Tobique Road, then Toners Renous Road passing the Eastern Terminus of Route 105. Route 108 continues southeast through Drummond and New Denmark, Blue Bell and Hazeldean. From here, the route passes through Crombie Settlement, and Sisson Ridge then comes to a 4-way intersection at the northern outskirts of Plaster Rock with the southern terminus of Route 385. The route follows a bypass route to the south, reaching another 4-way intersection at the Route 109 junction at the south end of town.
Route108 begins at an intersection with Ocean Road in the village of Narragansett Pier, several blocks north of Point Judith Light. Route108 proceeds eastward as Point Judith Road, before turning northward at White Swan Road. The route is residential in nature for several blocks, soon intersecting with the Galilee Escape Route, which connects Route108 to the village of Galilee and the Point JudithBlock Island Ferry, which connects to Block Island. Route108 continues north through Naragansett Pier, passing west of the park that once served as Fort Nathaniel Greene. After the junction with Knowlesway Extension, Route108 becomes residential once again, winding northward through the northern end of the village. After Burnside Avenue, the route winds northward, passing west of the Port Judith Country Club as a two-lane residential and wooded road.
Route 31 begins at the Connecticut border in Dudley, where a short (less than 50-yard-long (46m)) unnumbered local road changes to Route 31. Through Dudley and Charlton, it is known as Dresser Hill Road. Dresser Hill road winds over Dresser Hill, with several moderately steep grades and some tight corners.
In Charlton, it intersects U.S. Route 20 a few miles east of the I-90 & I-84 interchange. This provides its only connection with an interstate highway. In Charlton, it is known as Masonic Home Road and Brookfield Road. It then passes Lambs Pond.
Route 31 then enters Spencer, where it parallels the Podunk Pike (Route 49) for several miles. As Charlton Road, it passes the Spencer State Forest. In the center of Spencer, it crosses Route 9. It then turns north towards Paxton; this stretch is scenic and hilly. Several warning signs are seen here for sharp corners warning of a maximum safe speed of 30 miles per hour (48km/h).

I'm in my right mind when I awake Won't let my mind shake like a quake Don't roll like thunder in your heart Can't let change rearrange or tear you apart All they can think to do is starve and strive Takin' away life in order to survive How will hope have a chance to stay alive In the summer of 1999 Bring a new route I'm ready The world's still spinnin' in the air Man's still sittin' in despair I won't let 'em bring me down I'm gonna wait for the new day to come around
