Where else in the world are New Zealand and Alaska 200 km apart? Probably nowhere but on Prince Edward Island.
This neat, albeit weathered sign, will also tell you that Brooklyn is 69 km away and Greenwich is only 75 km from New Glasgow.
Historic significance: Folks in Eastern Canada are proud of their unique place names and their links to history. I think this is just meant to be a fun way to show off the island's quirkiness.
