Marion Bridge (Scottish Gaelic: Drochaid Mhira) (2001 pop.: 1711) is a Canadian rural community in Nova Scotia's Cape Breton Regional Municipality. The community is named for the eponymous bridge that crosses the Mira River, Marion Bridge being approximately midway between the river's source in and its discharge point at Mira Gut. The current concrete highway bridge was constructed in 1982 as a replacement for an older bridge, which collapsed after an accident involving a snow plow. Can you imagine a piece of the universe,More fit for princes and kings?

| - Marion Bridge (Scottish Gaelic: Drochaid Mhira) (2001 pop.: 1711) is a Canadian rural community in Nova Scotia's Cape Breton Regional Municipality. The community is named for the eponymous bridge that crosses the Mira River, Marion Bridge being approximately midway between the river's source in and its discharge point at Mira Gut. The current concrete highway bridge was constructed in 1982 as a replacement for an older bridge, which collapsed after an accident involving a snow plow. Marion Bridge was made famous through a popular song written by Allister MacGillivray. Entitled Song for the Mira, it contains the refrain: Can you imagine a piece of the universe,More fit for princes and kings? I'll trade you ten of your cities for Marion Bridge,And the pleasure it brings. The area is a setting for the 2002 film Marion Bridge. (en)
