Le Matin was a French-language daily newspaper in Moncton, New Brunswick, Canada, founded on 11 August 1986 and disappearing on 29 June 1988.
In the wake of the closure of L'Évangéline in October 1982 two Francophone daily papers were created in New Brunswick - Le Matin at Moncton and l'Acadie Nouvelle at Caraquet. Unlike its counterpart, Le Matin served the whole province. Despite this distribution on the provincial scale and despite subsidies, competition and the narrowness of the market, it did not achieve more than small circulation figures. Minimal advertising receipts brought its collapse barely two years after its launch.
The chief editor and editorial-writer was Rino Morin Rossignol, a writer who had been a cabinet member in the Hatfield government (1970-1987) on the linguistic question of New Brunswick. Gérard Étienne (Haitian poet, writer, linguist and journalist) was another of its editorial writers.

École L'Odyssée is a public francophone high school in Moncton, New Brunswick, Canada. It is part of the province's Francophone Sud School District, offering education to students from grade nine to twelve. The school opened on September 30, 2005 as part of a $24.2 million project, alongside the adjoining middle school, École Le Mascaret. École L'Odyssée was conceived as a way to alleviate the overcrowding problem at École Mathieu-Martin in nearby Dieppe, a problem the district has had in the past. The Odyssée-Mascaret project, as well as the future Carrefour de l'Acadie middle school, replaced the former École Beauséjour and École Vanier complexes. This move allowed the Moncton Hospital to expand, while the Vanier establishment made way for medical offices. On September 9, 2009, the school was given permission to begin an $884,000 expansion for its far side, allowing for a larger space to be reserved for its infirmary and orientation center.
