is the largest city in the province of New Brunswick, Canada, and it has a rich history dating back to the 17th century. Here's a brief overview of its history:
Early Indigenous Inhabitants: Before European settlement, the area around Saint John was inhabited by the Wolastoqiyik (Maliseet) and Mi'kmaq Indigenous peoples. They had established communities and traded along the Bay of Fundy.
European Settlement: The city's history began with the arrival of French explorers in the early 17th century. In 1604, Samuel de Champlain and Pierre Dugua, Sieur de Mons, established a short-lived settlement called Saint Croix Island. However, harsh winters and disease forced them to move to Port-Royal (now in Nova Scotia).
Founding of Saint John: The city of Saint John was officially founded by the British in 1783, following the American Revolution. It became a haven for loyalists (colonists who remained loyal to the British Crown) who fled the United States after the war. These loyalist settlers played a significant role in shaping the city's culture and identity.
Economic Growth: Saint John's natural harbor, one of the deepest in the world, contributed to its growth as a major port and trading hub. Shipbuilding, lumber, and trade with other British North American colonies were significant economic activities in the 19th century.
Industrialization: The 19th century also saw the city's industrialization, with the development of industries like shipbuilding, textile manufacturing, and manufacturing. The city's growth was further boosted with the arrival of the railway in the mid-19th century.
Disasters: Saint John has faced several major disasters throughout its history. In 1877, a massive fire known as the Great Fire destroyed a significant portion of the city, including many historic buildings. The city also experienced devastating floods in 1973.
Modern Era: Saint John continued to evolve and diversify its economy in the 20th century. It became known for its oil refining and petrochemical industries, with the Irving Oil Refinery being a major employer in the region. Tourism and education have also become important sectors in recent years.
Cultural Heritage: Saint John boasts a rich cultural heritage, with historic sites such as the Loyalist House, Fort Howe, and the New Brunswick Museum showcasing its history. The city's vibrant arts community, including theatres, galleries, and festivals, adds to its cultural appeal.
Today, Saint John is a thriving city known for its maritime heritage, picturesque landscapes, and economic diversity. It remains an important centre for trade, industry, and culture in the province of New Brunswick and the Atlantic region of Canada.

Very cool views of the ships. Your footage of the vessels against the city in the background really conveys their massive size. The top down shots from stern to bow were very cool. 👍
Great views from Canada.

Great views of the cruise ships, Robert! I love shooting them when they dock in Seattle, but I think they've all gone South until next Spring.
Thank You John Hope you are coming out with a new video soon it has been awhile since your last one🙂
It's the peril of having waaaaay too many projects going at the same time, most of them unrelated to drones and videos. I've got two videos mostly done and finishing them is on the To-Do List, but that's been true for some weeks now.
Looking forward to when you do post them🙂@@johnriper4416

Thank You the Cruise Ships were bigger than most of the buildings along the water front in downtown Saint John🙂
Very cool views of the ships. Your footage of the vessels against the city in the background really conveys their massive size. The top down shots from stern to bow were very cool. 👍
