About the event
So much history between two crustaceans! Did you know that the twinning of Shediac, New Brunswick, and Breaux Bridge, Louisiana, officially proclaimed over 50 years ago, represents an important milestone in the development of the Acadian diaspora? This talk will explore the origins of this special relationship between two sister-towns in light of the socio-political events at the turn of the 1970s, an exciting and decisive period for Acadian society.
