Yes, yes my friends! A couple times a day, when the Atlantic tide comes in, it is so powerful that it forces the water of the Saint John river, in the opposite direction!
This happens quite frequently, but it seems infrequently that I've ever caught it in action.
That's some pretty mighty power to make an entire river flow backwards, especially since there's still some Spring run-off added to the mix. At one point the river is kinda jumbling back and forth, I think they call that 'brakish' water, because it mixes the fresh (LOL Fresh my ass) water with the salt water.
BEHOLD!:

I'm drinking a mickies right now, so I can't tell which way the water is flowing, good thing you told me LOL
