The Atlantic coastal provinces are a unique region of Canada. Because of its geographical location, it was the gateway to the new world in the early days. There is Newfoundland, the oldest colony in Britain, and Port Royal, Nova Scotia, a North American immigrant area first established by the French. The early economic development was mainly oriented to the sea, rich in fish resources, and it was the fishing center of Canada. Modern economy develops slowly. Due to the harsh natural conditions, the traffic is inconvenient. It is generally believed that this area has become a thorny area in Canada.
