The confederation bridge in PEI is about a 10 minute drive with a span of about 12 km. The closest point from the mainland to the Gulf islands is about 18 km, so it would take about 15 minutes to get to the closest of the islands. Barring any c-lai crashes, of course.

Even if it was a speed limited, traffic laden 45 minute drive, it would still beat the 2.75 hrs it takes on that shitty ferry.
