St. Peter's Cathedral (Charlottetown)

St. Peter's Cathedral (Charlottetown)

St Peter's Cathedral, Charlottetown, Prince Edward Island, Canada, was founded in 1869 as a result of the influence of the Oxford Movement. Since that time, the parish has remained anglo-catholic in ethos and practice.

History

St Peter's was designated a second cathedral of the Anglican Diocese of Nova Scotia (now Nova Scotia and Prince Edward Island) in 1879. The metropolitan cathedral of the diocese was and remains All Saints Cathedral in Halifax. The diocese unusually contains two civil provinces of Canada. The Dean of Nova Scotia and Prince Edward Island, however, is the rector of All Saints' Cathedral, Halifax; the current Rector of St. Peter's is a canon of his own cathedral, being only one of two canons of St. Peter's.

The church is located on Rochford Square, corner of All Souls' Lane and Rochford Street, Charlottetown.
