The British didn't suddenly change the name of Acadie to Nova Scotia. In fact King James of England gave a Royal Charter to what he referred to as Nova Scotia in 1629. The French and English then fought over it for about 80 years until the issue was settled in 1713; at least with respect to mainland Nova Scotia.

I'd love to visit and have a series of restaurant dinner nights. The seafood chowder, the scallops and the fish come to mind. Oh yea, the mussels and the the lobster too. I've been to Nova Scotia and experienced much of that.

This video seems like you just asked ChatGPT about p.e.i

The picture of the slave working in the field was not the case in PEI where most were in servitude as maids and other labour looking after the house of their master and mistress. Their were no farm plantations in PEI. If any people were in near servitude it was the Acadians, the Irish and the Scottish. The indigenous people were simply trying to survive!

You skipped over a few things a bit quick. Louisbourg on Cape Breton Island only became the capital of Acadie after 1713 when what is now mainland Nova Scotia was ceded to England. Until this time, the capital was at Port Royale at the mouth of today's Annapolis River.

Maritimers have their own history that is different from that of Central (Quebec and Ontario) and Western Canada (Manitoba west). The sad fact is that most Canadians don't have a clue about this history unless their ancestors come from their; thankfully, their are quite a few of them as one of the great exports from the Maritimes are its people!

I've met a total of one person from PEI. It's the only reason i know it exists.

[@onthewater4020]

For clarity to people who aren't Canadian watching this: PEI is important to literally no one in this country other than elementary school kids who are realizing how borked our country's political borders are in social studies.

[@01habesha]

PEI is still very important to those who were born or chose to live there.

And no mention that Mi'kmaq claim the entire island as theirs and telling of their history. Just like any depressing retelling of Canadian lands. It's pathetic you don't tell their story. 0/10.
