The Anchorage Provincial Park

The Anchorage Provincial Park is a provincial park located on the south-east coast of Grand Manan Island, in the Bay of Fundy, New Brunswick, Canada. Located between the communities of Grand Harbour and Seal Cove, the park is about 24 kilometres (15 mi) south on Route 776 from the Coastal Transport Limited ferry terminal in the community of North Head. The provincial park and campground were established in the early 1970s after the government purchased the Anchorage hotel property in 1970. Since 2013 the park has been managed by the local Boys & Girls Club. The provincial government announced in April 2013 the park would close, but public opposition resulted in the adoption of a third party management model and the park, which continued to be provincially owned, opened as usual in May 2013. The March 2026 provincial budget included the Anchorage provincial park in a list of "10 "underutilized" provincially-owned tourism and heritage sites that saw under 5,000 annual visitors" and "would be divested", leading to concerns that the park "might be privatized". The government announced that the park would operate as usual in the summer of 2026 "while transition discussions take place". It was a key employer on the island, until 2013 decreases in the number of employees. The provincial park lies within the Grand Manan Migratory Bird Sanctuary, which was established in 1931. It contains a number of hiking and cycling trails, and is known for its wild rabbits. The park has a 100-lot campsite, the only provincial campground on the island. The park is adjacent to Long Pond Bay.The Red Point Trail boardwalk is wheelchair accessible. Other trails are Long Pond, Great Pond and Bagley's. Individuals may also partake in sea kayaking, whale-watching and bird-watching at the park. As many as 275 different bird species can be seen on Grand Manan. The park has several blinds for bird viewing. Other than Anchorage Provincial Park/Grand Manan Bird Sanctuary, areas on Grand Manan recommended for birdwatching include Castalia Marsh and the Thomas Munro Memorial Shoreline. Henderson's Point, a coastal stretch of land within the bird sanctuary adjacent to the Provincial Park, had become "a place where old cars, garbage and burnt mattresses go to rot" before it was purchased by the Nature Conservancy of Canada in 2017 in order to protect the area. In 2011, a granite monument was erected honouring those lost at sea. References External links The Anchorage Provincial Park

Parc provincial de Pokeshaw

Le parc provincial de Pokeshaw (prononciation : pok-chat) est un parc situé dans la région des Caps, entre Grande-Anse et Bathurst, au nord-est de la province du Nouveau-Brunswick, au Canada. Histoire Le parc est nommé ainsi d'après la rivière Pokeshaw, Pooksaak en langue micmaque, dont le nom signifie possiblement étroit à l'embouchure. Le rocher a été inclus en 2014 dans la zone naturelle protégée de Pokeshaw. Site Dans le petit estuaire formé par la rivière Pokeshaw se trouve le rocher de Pokeshaw, mesurant environ 90 mètres par 40 mètres et orienté nord-sud. Le rocher abrite une colonie de cormorans. Les arbres sur le rocher prirent feu en 1994, à cause du guano. Le parc comprend plusieurs formations rocheuses dont le rocher et une plage non surveillée. À cause de restrictions budgétaires, le parc est maintenant géré par une tierce partie. La Petite Rivière Pokeshaw se déverse à environ un kilomètre à l'ouest du parc.

Grand Manan Parish, New Brunswick

Grand Manan is a geographic parish in Charlotte County, New Brunswick, Canada, comprising one village and part of a rural district; the rural district portion was formerly a local service district (LSD); both of which are members of the Southwest New Brunswick Service Commission (SNBSC). The parish includes Grand Manan Island and numerous lesser islands, only one of which has permanent year-round inhabitants. Confusion is sometimes caused by other uses of the name: epenthesis of Grand Manan Island to Grand Manan; the village of Grand Manan; the census subdivision of Grand Manan Parish, which includes only White Head Island; and the assumption of an LSD with the name of Grand Manan, which never existed. Origin of name The parish takes its name from Grand Manan Island, which is often shortened to Grand Manan. Ganong gives the origin of the island's name as Mun-aa-nook', his transcription of the locative form of the Passamaquoddy word for island, combined with the French adjective grand used on some early French maps of the area. History The parish was erected in 1816 from West Isles Parish as Grand-Manan, to include "Grand-Manan with its appurtenances". The hyphen was dropped from the name in 1850 and appurtenances was clarified in 1877, implicitly adding Machias Seal Island to the parish. Boundaries Grand Manan Parish includes the main island and all islands to the south and west. Municipality The village of Grand Manan was formed in 1995 and includes all of the parish except White Head Island. Former local service district White Head Island comprised only that island. The LSD was established in 1979 to assess for fire protection, making it the last inhabited part of the parish to become part of a village or LSD. In 2021, the LSD assessed for only the basic LSD services of fire protection, police services, land use planning, emergency measures, and dog control. The taxing authority was 521.00 White Head Island. Since the beginning of 2023, it forms part of the Southwest rural district. Former villages and local service districts Before 1995 Grand Manan Island comprised three villages and two LSDs. Running clockwise from the northern end of the island, these were: North Head (village) Castalia (LSD) Woodwards Cove (LSD) Grand Harbour (village) Seal Cove (village) Communities Communities within the parish. all communities except White Head are part of the village of Grand Manan Bodies of water Bodies of water within the parish.

Paroisse de Grand Manan

La paroisse de Grand Manan est une paroisse civile du comté de Charlotte, au sud du Nouveau-Brunswick. Elle correspond au territoire du village de Grand Manan et du DSL de l'île White Head. Toponyme Le nom Grand Manan est formé du mot Munanook, commun dans la langue des Passamaquoddys, des Malécites et des Micmacs et qui signifie île ainsi que du mot français Grand, pour distinguer l'île de la Petite Manan, au large du Maine. Champlain, qui découvrit l'île en 1607, l'appela Menane. Il écrit plus tard Manthane. Le nom connu ensuite plusieurs variations: Manano (1611), le grand Menane (1686), Great Manan (1711), Grand Monan (1713), Grand Manan (1755) puis finalement Île Grand Manan en 1761. En 1826, McDonald écrit Great Mary Island, ce qui est dû à une mauvaise traduction de Manan par David Owen. Histoire La municipalité du comté de Charlotte est dissoute en 1966. La paroisse de Grand Manan est subdivisée en deux districts de services locaux en 1967: Grand Manan et l'île White Head. Notes et références Notes Références Portail du Nouveau-Brunswick

Abegweit Passage

Abegweit Passage is the narrowest part of the Northumberland Strait, comprising the 13-kilometre (8.1 mi) wide portion between Cape Traverse, Prince Edward Island, and Cape Tormentine, New Brunswick. Tidal currents in this area can reach up to 4 knots (7.4 km/h; 4.6 mph). This portion of the strait is now spanned by the Confederation Bridge. The word Abegweit is derived from the Mi'kmaq word Abahquit, meaning "lying parallel with the land", or Epegweit, "lying in the water". It is often loosely translated as meaning "cradled on the waves." References

Le passage Abegweit est la plus étroite section du détroit de Northumberland entre le continent et l'Île-du-Prince-Édouard au Canada. Il ne fait que 13 kilomètres de large entre le Cap Tryon (Île-du-Prince-Édouard) et le Cap Tourmentin au Nouveau-Brunswick. Son nom provient du nom Mi'kmaq Epekwit'k qui désigne l'île et veut dire « berceau sur les vagues ». À cause de son resserrement, le courant peut y atteindre 4 nœuds entre les marées montantes et descendantes. Il a été choisi pour y construire le Pont de la Confédération de 1993 à 1997.

Miscou Island Lighthouse

Miscou Island Lighthouse is an 24.3-metre (80 ft)-tall landfall lighthouse located on the North-Eastern tip of Miscou Island, at the entrance of the Chaleur Bay. It was built in 1856 and currently in use by the Canadian Coast Guard who owns the lighthouse, the land it is on, and also maintains it. It was built due to the shipwrecks that happened each year that could be prevented by a lighthouse. James Murray from Newcastle won the bid to construct the lighthouse. It is a federal Heritage Building that is open to the public to explore. In 2009 a parking area, washrooms, picnic area and a deck around the lighthouse was added. The light's characteristic is a single green flash that occurs every five seconds, emitted at a focal plane height of 14 metres (46 ft). It has a third-order Fresnel lens. The original lens was shipped from England and arrived on October 10, 1856, and the person in charge of the only other lighthouse on the northern coast of New Brunswick, William Hay, was sent to oversee the installation. Smoke conductors were installed in 1860 because the calm weather could not sufficiently clear the smoke from the lantern room. In 1874 a building was built which contained a steam fog whistle that had blasts of 5 seconds that were separated by 25 seconds of silence. In 1946 the lighthouse was moved 200 feet inland.

J. C. Van Horne Bridge

The J. C. Van Horne Bridge is a Canadian steel through truss/steel deck truss bridge crossing the Restigouche River between Campbellton, New Brunswick, and Pointe-à-la-Croix, Quebec. Built between June 1958 and October 1961, the bridge was opened to traffic on October 15, 1961. As an interprovincial crossing, the bridge was constructed under a three-party agreement between the governments of Canada, New Brunswick, and Quebec. Measuring 805 m (2641.07 ft) in total length, the bridge consists of four deck-truss approach-spans joined in the middle with a cantilever-through-truss structure. The middle structure is composed of two anchor spans and one clear span over the navigational channel measuring 380 m (1246.71 ft). It carries two traffic lanes and two sidewalks. History Crossing the Restigouche River between Campbellton, New Brunswick, and Pointe-à-la-Croix, Quebec, had long been a bone of contention by locals in both provinces. A federally-funded interprovincial ferry service between the two communities had proven adequate until the 1950s, when vehicle traffic began to grow at much higher rate than had been forecast. By 1947, the local New Brunswick PC Member of Parliament, J.C. Van Horne, made the case for a bridge and invited representatives from the federal and provincial governments to witness a "typical weekend" lineup at the ferry. Van Horne had chosen the St. John's weekend (on or around June 24) in which the lineups would be predictably long on both sides. The government representatives were convinced of the need for a bridge to replace the ferry service and acceded to Van Horne's wishes. The bridge was later named in his honour. Gallery J. C.

Pont J.C. Van Horne

Le pont J. C. Van Horne est un pont à poutres en porte-à-faux enjambant la rivière Ristigouche entre Campbellton, au Nouveau-Brunswick, et Pointe-à-la-Croix, au Québec. Le pont, nommé d'après Joseph Charles Van Horne, instigateur du projet de lien routier entre les deux provinces, comporte deux voies pour la circulation automobile et deux trottoirs pour les piétons. Histoire Au milieu du XIXe siècle, la traversée entre Campbellton et Pointe-à-la-Croix se fait d'abord en chaloupe à rames, ensuite par des chalands, puis par un traversier à vapeur. Au milieu du XXe siècle, le parc automobile est grandissant et les files d’attente pour traverser la rivière Ristigouche s'allongent. Vers la fin des années 1950, Joseph Charles Van Horne imagine une façon de promouvoir la construction d'un pont. Il fait venir certains membres des parlements fédéral et provinciaux pour assister à une journée typique d'attente pour le traversier. Par ruse, il choisit la journée de la fête de la Saint-Jean, une journée fériée suscitant davantage de déplacements. Les parlementaires repartent convaincus. La construction du pont débute en juin 1958, après entente entre les gouvernements canadien, québécois et néo-brunswickois. Le pont est inauguré le 15 octobre 1961.

Point Wolfe Bridge

The Point Wolfe Bridge is a red covered bridge that crosses the Point Wolfe River at Fundy National Park in New Brunswick, Canada. It is one of the two covered bridges in Fundy National Park, connecting the Point Wolfe Road from the Point Wolfe campground to the rest of the park. It was originally built in 1909, following the collapse of a bridge one year prior. The Point Wolfe Bridge was once again rebuilt in 1992 after a workplace accident in December 1990 resulted in the bridge collapsing. History Since 1853, there have been a total of five bridges that have stood in the location of Point Wolfe Bridge. One of these bridges fell in 1908, was rebuilt in 1909, and opened in 1910 at a cost of $1,456. The Point Wolfe Bridge predates Fundy National Park, which was created on April 10, 1948, and officially opened on July 29, 1950. On December 29, 1990, the Point Wolfe Bridge collapsed when workers tried removing a rock that engineers deemed posed a safety risk to the bridge. The engineers decided to use explosives to remove the rock to save the bridge. The rock rolled down the slope above the bridge hitting the abutments and knocking the bridge off the abutments and into the river, causing it to collapse. Shortly following the accident, the federal government announced that they would be rebuilding the bridge with close resemblance to the former one, with a temporary bridge being used in the meantime. In 1992, it was rebuilt at a cost of CA$545,000. See also List of covered bridges in New Brunswick References
