geographical region of Canada From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Maritimes or the Maritime Provinces, is a region of Eastern Canada with three provinces: New Brunswick, Nova Scotia, and Prince Edward Island.
Some people have proposed merging all three provinces into a single province called the Maritime Union.
Both Great Britain and France settled the area in the 17th century.[1] After the French and Indian War, the British ruled the entire area.[2] The Charlottetown Conference was held in 1864 in Charlottetown, Prince Edward Island. The Conference was about the various colonies of British North America forming the Canadian Confederation.
