Day 1: travel, arrive in Halifax (YHZ) late night.
Night 1: Halifax
Day 2: Halifax area
Night 2: Halifax
Day 3: Nova Scotia (Cape Breton/Cabot Trail)
Night 3: Halifax
Day 4: Nova Scotia (South of Halifax)
Night 4: Halifax
Day 5: New Brunswick (Hopewell Cape, maybe Fundy National Park)
Night 5: Moncton
Day 6: New Brunswick (St. Martins, Saint John, Saint George)
Night 6: Saint John
Day 7: NB/Prince Edward Island
Night 7: Charlottetown
Day 8: Prince Edward Island
Night 8: Charlottetown
Day 9: PEI/NB/NS?
Night 9: Dartmouth
Day 10: travel, depart YHZ in the morning

I'm sitting on a boatload of points and free night certificates for Marriott and Hyatt, so I would need a compelling reason to stay at a smaller town that doesn't have one of these chains.

Would you recommend I allocate my time differently?
I think you should look at tubing in the Miramichi River. Thats a very enjoyable trip. Half a day should be enough
