Why do Atlantic Canadians love big things so much?

Sydney unveils world's largest illuminated fiddle. "It's going to be a major tourist attraction," said Cyril Hearn, who built the oversized instrument.

Though there are other large fiddles displayed in Atlantic Canada – including one in Don Messer's hometown of Harvey, N.B., and another in Cavendish, P.E.I. – organizers are calling the Sydney fiddle the "world's largest illuminated fiddle" in hopes that it will be a major attraction for the city.

I think Atlantic Canada is suffering from the same 'size envy' syndrome as Northern Alberta. Scattered amongst various small towns we have the giant perogy, the giant easter egg and the giant stop sign (I haven't seen it, but from what I've heard, its ridiculously huge)!
