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 faithful to the Catholic principles on which it was founded, in preaching, teaching, and liturgy.

[edit] History

It 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 being All Saints Cathedral in Halifax, but the diocese unusually containing two civil provinces of Canada. However, the Dean of Nova Scotia and Prince Edward Island is the rector of All Saints Cathedral, Halifax and the rector of St. Peter's is a canon.

The church is located on Rochford Square, corner of All Souls' Lane and Rochford Street, Charlottetown. The cathedral is of the Anglo-Catholic tradition.
