Across the Strait to Epekwikt

This fortnight we’re joined by Christian Theriault, the PEI Provincial Archaeologist, and Dr. Helen Kristmanson of L’nuey to chat about the latest in the archaeology of Prince Edward Island. It’s the perfect prelude to a summer trip to the island, and the perfect thing to listen to while you cross the Confederation Bridge.
