Moncton is known as the principal Francophone Acadian centre in which province?

  1. Quebec

  2. Ontario

  3. New Brunswick

  4. Nova Scotia

The correct answer is: New Brunswick

Moncton is located in the province of New Brunswick, which is one of Canada’s three Maritime provinces. It is known as the principal Francophone Acadian centre because it is home to a significant portion of the Acadian population in Canada. Option A, Quebec, is incorrect because it is not a Maritime province and does not have a significant Acadian population. Option B, Ontario, is also incorrect because it is located in Central Canada and is not known for having a significant Acadian community. Option D, Nova Scotia, is incorrect because although it does have an Acadian population, Moncton is considered the principal Francophone Acadian centre, making it the most significant and well-known in the region. Therefore, the only correct option is C, New Brunswick.
