Dieppe

Dieppe sits on the Petitcodiac River in southeastern New Brunswick, where tidal waters linked to the Bay of Fundy shape the low-lying riverbank. Immediately beside Moncton, it is part of the Greater Moncton area but retains a pronounced Acadian identity, with French widely heard in everyday life. The city received its name in 1946 in remembrance of Dieppe, France, and the Second World War raid in which Canadian troops played a central role. Parks and walking routes follow the broad tidal channel, whose current reverses with the tide.
