Mystery Class #1

"Our region does not have the largest area of the four regions in our country, but it does have both of our national capital cities, and a valley that is well liked by tourists."

Mystery Class #2

"Here in our province, you might actually hear people speaking Gaelic and Mi'kmaq. If it weren't for a single strip of land between our province and the adjacent one, ours would not be physically connected to our country at all, or to our continent."


Mystery Class #3

"Although these look like goblets and are named like something on a coffee shop menu, don't try to drink from them. They are ancient structures and an important symbol of our indigenous culture. In fact, they are shown on the two-bit coins for our territory and for the islands north of us too."

Ancient structures
Mystery Class #4

"Only about two percent of our continent looks like this. These valleys near our location are one of the largest areas without ice and most of the time you won't get much of a reading on a hygrometer. So you might be surprised to know that one of the longest rivers on this continent flows through this area, during the short summer."

Mystery Class #5

"Our department is surrounded by another department near the center of our country."


Mystery Class #6

"As warm as the sun, one lovely color is represented in our state's slogan, flower, nickname, fish, and mineral too." 


Mystery Class #7

"Our province has one Atlantic coast, but it is bordered by a larger province that has two Atlantic coasts. Several decades ago, that larger province and both its coasts were part of our province and shared our name too."


Mystery Class #8

"If an apple a day keeps the doctor away, then our province is a good place to be since one of the things it's known for is the large amount of apples grown here. Located in the east central area of our country and bordered by six other provinces, it is one of the largest and most populated provinces in the country."


Mystery Class #9

"Land of the Giants? With more area than any of the other departments in our country, our giant department has a UNESCO World Heritage Site where giants like this still roam."
