Charlottetown: Canada's birthplace
Abstract
With a mandate to promote
tourism and business opportunities
inspired by the "birthplace"
theme, the Capital Commission of Prince Edward Island has capitalized
not only on the city's historical
significance but on its
waterfront setting, its heritage as
a microcosm of Canadian immigration
and settlement, its cultural
diversity, its unique mixture
of Georgian and Victorian architecture,
and the story of its
social, religious and entrepreneurial
development.
