So this is about as much of an island as Western Europe (Main-Donau Chanel), Africa (Suez Chanel) and North America (Panama Chanel)

New England, New Brunswick, far eastern New York, and southern Quebec are also an island. Lake Champlain straddles the border between northern Vermont and New York. The lake drains north via the Richelieu River, which connects to the Saint Lawerence River and the Atlantic Ocean. At the south end of Lake Champlain, there’s the Champlain Canal, which goes west to the Hudson River, which also drains to the Atlantic.
The Hudson also connects to the Erie Canal, which would make northern New York its own island.

Just wait until OP figures out that all of us humans are just tubes!
South America has a huge natural island in the North East. The Casiquiare Canal connects the Orinoco with the Rio Negro and the Amazon.
I'm pretty sure it's biggest island is just to the left of that river which includes the great Alaskan peninsula.
It’s shaped like a whale shark because whale sharks are the best.
