'''Madawaska County''' (2021 population 32,603<ref name=2021census/>), also known as the "'''New Brunswick [[Salient (geography)|Panhandle]]'''",<ref>{{Cite web|url=http://www.cangeoeducation.ca/resources/rivers_of_canada/st_john_river/default.asp|title=Rivers of Canada - St. John River : Can Geo Education|website=www.cangeoeducation.ca|access-date=February 6, 2017}}</ref> is located in northwestern [[New Brunswick]], Canada. Over 90% of the county's population speaks [[French language|French]]. Its [[Francophone]] population are known as "[[Brayon]]s." Forestry is the major industry in the county.

==History==
The first inhabitants of what is now called Madawaska County were the [[Maliseet]] or [[Wolastoqiyik]], who occupied and used the land along the [[Saint John River (Bay of Fundy)|Saint John River Valley]] north to the [[St. Lawrence River]] and south to the [[Penobscot River]]. There is debate concerning the true origin of the word "Madawaska". The earliest settlers were from Quebec. The area was the focus of the bloodless [[Aroostook War]], a border dispute led by businessman and political activist John Baker.

The earliest settlers of the Upper Saint John River Valley have been clearly verified, with census results of the Madawaska region taken in 1820 showing where most families had originated from Quebec.<ref>{{cite web |url=http://www.upperstjohn.com/visits/Saint-Vallier1686.htm |title=Visit of the Bishop of Québec to the upper St.John River valley, 1686 |publisher=C.
