Nova Scotia
Nova Scotia, "Canada's Ocean Playground," is a province of eastern Canada, consisting of a peninsula on the Canadian mainland, Cape Breton Island, and numerous smaller islands. The peninsula is connected to the mainland by a narrow strip of land called the Isthmus of Chignecto and Cape Breton Island is separated from the peninsula by the Strait of Canso. Nova Scotia juts out into the Atlantic Ocean from the mainland, and no part of the province is far from the sea. Teeming with fish and shellfish, the sea has always been central to life in Nova Scotia. The province’s many fine harbors and close proximity to sea lanes have given Nova Scotia an important role in Canada’s defense. The harbor at Halifax, one of the world’s largest, is open year-round and is one of Canada’s busiest ports. Halifax is also Nova Scotia’s Capitol and largest city.
New Brunswick
New Brunswick is one of the three Maritime Provinces and included as one of the four Atlantic Provinces, of Canada. The province is joined to Nova Scotia by the narrow Isthmus of Chignecto. New Brunswick entered the Canadian Confederation on July 1, 1867, as one of the four original provinces.
