the hidden island

storms, shipwrecks and secrets


Listen Later

Islanders and the ocean have been connected for centuries, beginning with the Mi'kmaq who travelled in birch bark canoes. Before modern vehicles came into play, the water was basically a road. It was often quicker to travel by water than by horse and carriage - as we learn in this episode. But with the ocean comes danger. In this episode, we discover how many ships sunk off the coast of PEI - some as recent as the late 1900s.

 

Features guest interviews: Junior Peter-Paul, Georges Arsenault and Paul Gallant.
