Sydney
Nova Scotia
Sydney can be found on the east coast of Cape Breton Island in Nova Scotia. With a population today of around 31,000, Sydney was originally founded in 1785, incorporated in 1904, dissolved in 1995, and later amalgamated to become part of the regional municipality.
In the past, the city relied on mining and steel mills to strengthen the economy. When those businesses closed, the city started to look at other options to improve and diversify the region’s economy. Today, tourism helps bolster the local economy.
