Our region encompasses an area of approximately 2,500 square kilometers on the southeastern side of Cape Breton Island in Nova Scotia, Canada. Cape Breton's history, because of our strategic location near the St. Lawrence River and our proximity to some of the richest fishing grounds in the world, is an important part of the history of the earliest settlement in North America. Our island's strategic location on the tip of eastern North America is well complemented by the rugged beauty of Cape Breton, which is consistently ranked among the most beautiful islands in the world by numerous travel publications. With the magnificent natural beauty of the hills overlooking the Atlantic Ocean, and the many lakes and rivers, this is a paradise for anyone who enjoys outdoor activities in a moderate climate. The CBRM is comprised of a diverse cultural fabric which is well reflected in the numerous community festivals and events hosted across the region throughout the year. Our people are generous, hospitable and hard-working. In fact, the region has been ranked among the most competitive business locations in North America. Whether you are considering a visit or possibly relocation, please accept my personal invitation to explore all that this unique part of Canada has to offer.
