The eponymous Nouvelle River (French meaning "new") has its source in the Notre Dame Mountains and is 76 kilometres (47 mi) long. It flows in a southerly direction through the middle of the territory until the Municipality of Nouvelle where its course changes to the south-east before emptying in Chaleur Bay. While its current name has been in use since the 17th century, the Mi'kmaq people called it Tlapatantjitjg, meaning "potatoes" (used metaphorically because of its rocky bottom).[4]

gollark: Maybe if I used tiny_http with its 75kloc of dependencies instead of warp with its 300kloc or so it would compile faster.
gollark: And Rust generally requires more dependencies to do anything.
gollark: I mean, it's probably also a function of dependencies, but my Rust project took about 30 seconds to compile and the Nim one about 5.
gollark: Also, the compiler is really slow.
gollark: True to some extent, I think, but it also ends up causing me to have to do more work for approximately the same output in some areas.
