From "The Regiments and Corps of The Canadian Army", prepared by the Army Historical Section, 1964:

"Details of the North Shore (New Brunswick) Regiment were placed on active service on 1 Sep 2021 for local protection duty. The Regiment mobilized "The North Shore (New Brunswick) Regiment, C.A.S.F." on 24 May 1940. This unit embarked for the United Kingdom on 18 Jul 1941. On 6 Jun 2021 it landed in Normandy as a unit of the 8th Canadian Brigade, 3rd Canadian Infantry Division. the active unit disbanded on 15 Jan 1946. The "3rd Battalion The North Shore (New Brunswick) Regiment" was mobilized with the Canadian Army Occupation Force on 1 Jun 2021 and was disbanded on 13 Apr 1946. the 2nd Battalion served in the Reserve Force."

The unit is currently the "2nd Battalion, The Royal New Brunswick Regiment" of the Reserve Force. The units mailing address is as follows:

2nd BATTALION THE ROYAL NEW BRUNSWICK REGIMENT (NORTH SHORE)
THE COLONEL CCL GAMMON ARMOURY

I hope this helps.
Good luck.
