Bay of Fundy Separates Saint John, NB from Mainland—Not Providence, RI

The question contains a geographic error. The city separated from the mainland by the Bay of Fundy is Saint John, New Brunswick, Canada—not Providence, Rhode Island (which is on Narragansett Bay, US).

Saint John & the Bay of Fundy

• Saint John sits on a peninsula at the Bay's northern end, connected to mainland by a narrow isthmus.
• Bay of Fundy has world's highest tides (up to 16m/53ft).
• Reversing Falls: tidal rapids where river flows backward at high tide.
• Part of Fundy National Park UNESCO Biosphere Reserve.

Providence, Rhode Island

• Located at head of Narragansett Bay, Atlantic coast.
• No connection to Bay of Fundy (500+ km away).
• Founded 1636 by Roger Williams; capital of Rhode Island.

Why the Confusion?

Possibly mixing "Providence" (divine guidance) with "Fundy" (from French fendu "split"), or confusing Saint John's historic loyalty to Britain (Loyalist founding 1783) with Providence's revolutionary history. Always verify place names with maps.
