Stretching 12.9 km across the Northumberland Strait, the Confederation Bridge is the world’s longest bridge over ice‑covered waters—a curving “Fixed Link” connecting Prince Edward Island to New Brunswick. In harsh winters, whiteouts and sea ice reduce it to a thin line of lamps and concrete, yet Islanders keep moving—farmers, fishers, truckers, and families sustained by a resilient community spirit. Each crossing echoes Charlottetown’s role in Confederation and the Island’s pride in this Canadian engineering landmark.
