The Confederation Bridge
Manage episode 330004356 series 2566786
From a proposed underground train in the 1890s, to broken promises by the federal government in the 1950s and 1960s, it took until 1997 for PEI to officially get its fixed link connection to the mainland. The Confederation Bridge would become an iconic symbol of Canada, and an amazing engineering project.
