Proud of our History - the Saint John ferry terminal

Marine Atlantic, its predecessor CN Marine, and pre-confederation Newfoundland coastal boats have a strong and proud history serving the people of Atlantic Canada through ferry terminals, passenger vessels and rail service.

Beginning with the Dominion Atlantic Railway in 1894, the Bay of Fundy service was consolidated to make Saint John and Digby, N.S. the main ports of call between the provinces of New Brunswick and Nova Scotia. Through the years the service operated under Canadian Pacific, CN Marine and Marine Atlantic and was recognized as an important economic link, transporting both passengers and commercial goods between the two provinces.
