The Island or the Province?

The island probably formed in the last ice age in which the Gulf of St. Lawrence was shaped by glacier action.

Prince Edward Island was discovered by Jaques Cartier in 1534 and was settled by Accadians therafter; and became a British Colony in the Treaty of Paris of 1763.

PEI became a Canadian Province in 1873.
