The Isthmus of Chignecto is an isthmus bordering the Maritime provinces of New Brunswick and Nova Scotia that connects the Nova Scotia peninsula with North America. The isthmus separates the waters of Chignecto Bay, a sub-basin of the Bay of Fundy, from those of Baie Verte, a sub-basin of the Northumberland Strait that is an arm of the Gulf of St. Lawrence. The isthmus stretches from its northerly point at an area in the Petitcodiac River valley near the city of Dieppe, New Brunswick to its southerly point at an area near the town of Amherst, Nova Scotia. At its narrowest point between Amherst and Tidnish, the isthmus measures 24 kilometres wide. Because of its strategic position, it has been important to competing forces through much of its history of occupation.

  • The Isthmus of Chignecto is an isthmus bordering the Maritime provinces of New Brunswick and Nova Scotia that connects the Nova Scotia peninsula with North America. The isthmus separates the waters of Chignecto Bay, a sub-basin of the Bay of Fundy, from those of Baie Verte, a sub-basin of the Northumberland Strait that is an arm of the Gulf of St. Lawrence. The isthmus stretches from its northerly point at an area in the Petitcodiac River valley near the city of Dieppe, New Brunswick to its southerly point at an area near the town of Amherst, Nova Scotia. At its narrowest point between Amherst and Tidnish, the isthmus measures 24 kilometres wide. Because of its strategic position, it has been important to competing forces through much of its history of occupation. The name "Chignecto" derives from the Mi'kmaq name Siknikt, meaning "drainage place"; the name of the Mi'kmaq District where the isthmus is located. (en)

El istmo separa las aguas de la bahía de Chignecto, una subcuenca de la bahía de Fundy, de las de bahía Verte, una subcuenca del estrecho de Northumberland, que es un brazo del golfo de San Lorenzo. El istmo se extiende desde su punta norte, en un área en el valle del río Petitcodiac cerca de la ciudad de Dieppe, a su punto más al sur en una zona cercana a la ciudad de . En su punto más angosto entre y , el istmo mide 24 kilómetros de ancho.

  • L'isthme de Chignectou ((en): Chignecto Isthmus) est un isthme se trouvant entre les provinces canadiennes du Nouveau-Brunswick et de la Nouvelle-Écosse et reliant la partie continentale de la Nouvelle-Écosse à l'Amérique du Nord. L'isthme sépare la baie de Chignectou, sous-bassin de la baie de Fundy, de la baie Verte donnant dans le détroit de Northumberland. L'isthme s'étend de son point nord situé à proximité de Tidnish à sa limite sud près d'Amherst. À son point le plus étroit il mesure 24 km de large. Il a autrefois joué un rôle de frontière important pour délimiter les territoires de la Nouvelle-France et de la Nouvelle-Angleterre. * Portail de l’océan Atlantique * Portail du Nouveau-Brunswick * Portail de la Nouvelle-Écosse (fr)
