Cape Breton Regional Municipality at a glance

Cape Breton University stands on Grand Lake Road between Sydney and Glace Bay. The Cape Breton Regional Municipality was created in 1995 by merging the city of Sydney with the towns of Glace Bay, New Waterford, North Sydney, Sydney Mines, Dominion and Louisbourg and the rest of Cape Breton County. The Cape Breton Regional Municipality is the second-largest municipality in Nova Scotia by population, after Halifax. For most of the twentieth century, the economy of the Cape Breton Regional Municipality revolved around its coal mines and the Sydney steel plant. The Celtic Colours International Festival brings fiddle, piping and Gaelic song to halls across Cape Breton Island each October, with many shows in the Cape Breton Regional Municipality.
