Cape Tormentine 

A nearly abandoned town on the Atlantic Coast. Prior to the opening of the Confederation Bridge to PEI it was a booming town due to the ferry service running to PEI which provided many jobs for the people and helped its economy. When the bridge was finished and opened in 1997 the ferry service was shut down and over 600 people lost their jobs as a result. Faced with no jobs most people were forced to leave the town and find employment elsewhere. Most of the ferry terminal and wharf structures were dismantled as well as most of the buildings in the town except for a few which are slowly decaying. It is essentially a ghost town now except for the last holdouts,fishermen and a crumbling wharf and a few buildings left to tell of what once was.

Word of the Day on November 3, 2026
Brought to public attention by Bob Woodward and Carl Bernstein in the book on the fall of Richard Nixon, All The President’s Men, ratfucker was Nixon’s term for a political operative who sows chaos among opponents; an agent provocateur. It is thought to have originated among campus political rivalries at USC, and seems to have some usage in the US military.
Along with Nixon’s other ratfuckers, Roger Stone caused fights at otherwise peaceful Democratic Party protests to generate a false narrative that the Democrats were violent and dangerous.
