Politics/Elections Municipal Election Information Thread

7 Upvotes

Municipal Election season is upon us so I decided it's time to make an informational post. Elections PEI will perform the elections in five Municipalities across the Island however other municipalities are still holding elections on their own. All elections should be held on November 2nd. If you are unsure which municipality you are apart of or if you are a part of one a map can be found here.

Information on the Elections run by Elections PEI is best found here.

If you live in one of the other Municipalities some general information can be found here. Below you'll find links to all Municipal websites, where possible I will link to the notice of election. Communities in bold are having a vote, still looking for candidates, or their status is unknown at time of this posting. Names that are not bolded have had all their positions filled by aclimation.

Concerning Post in Local Group

I just saw this post in a local PEI group regarding an absolutely heinous interaction they had with an individual in Charlottetown. This is completely unacceptable. Sharing here for awareness of this situation.

Hate has no place in this province.

Double Lane Left Turn?

8 Upvotes

Do people here not know how to turn through an intersection with multiple lanes? Some asshole in a big 2500 pickup with a trailer started his turn through Capital drive advance-left in the inside lane (his lane) and ended it in the outside lane (MY lane) and I had to step on the brakes to not get smucked.

Not the first time that exact thing has happened to me at that intersection with some big jackass pickup, either.

and yes this is just me whining and bitching I don't actually expect this post to do anything

Seasonal (spring/summer) work options?

• Upvotes

Im considering a seasonal move from the west coast to the east coast. Exploring the east coast, spending a good amount of time in the area has always been a dream. And now life seems to be allowing that to happen.

Would love local’s opinions on best places to call home, season work availability, what the rental market is like and anything else.

I haven’t picked an area or really even a province. I keep coming back to PEI during my research. So figured i would start here.

Ideally home would be a coastal town. My biggest concern is finding the right employment. Is there seasonal (spring and summer) work? I’m from Vancouver island and almost every town has seasonal work in the summer. I would be open to most things. Working at a resort, farm, gas station, nannying or basically anything.

My experience is a range of things.
Childcare - I have experience running a daycare from my home and Nannying.
Cleaning - cleaned commercial offices, and clinics.
Bullcooking - solo house keeper (cleaning, laundry, dishes, helping with some food prep) of a 40 man logging camp
Construction - building homes, siding, fencing etc.
Farming - raised and bred Nigerian dwarf goats, plus kept sheep, pigs, chickens, turkeys, rabbits etc.
Horses - have had horses in my life since I was a child. Skilled in ground work, day to day care, etc.

I’m excited about possibly calling a new part of Canada home. I love the outdoors. Spend most of my spare time at the ocean or in the forest. And truly think I would love the East Coast. There are so many beautiful towns, it makes it hard to choose. So I think starting with employment is the best and going from there.

Thanks in advance for any advice and information.

Question Changing pharmacies

0 Upvotes

I’m moving to Summerside, and need to change pharmacies.
I’ve heard different insights about each one, but looking for some other opinions.
I’ve had bad experiences in the past.
Most important for me is having longer hours as I tend to work late.
Thanks folks!

Question Acclaimed Councillors in Stratford

2 Upvotes

Anybody know anything about the 2 new councillors in Stratford Ward 2? Political positions or beliefs? Or email addresses so I can ask them myself?

All I’ve been to find is that Jeff McEntee is Director of IT for Northumberland Ferries.

Patrick Ross owns China Garden and has run for council unsuccessfully twice prior to being acclaimed this year.

Edit: Apparently the Patrick Ross that ran unsuccessfully in the past is a different Patrick Ross.

Local business reposting n*zi and white supremacist content

670 Upvotes

EDIT: since posting this, the account has gained followers. Disgusting.

BigTime Construction's owner, or at least someone who runs their page is reposting extremely distressing content. Genuinely unsure where else to post this.

I noticed someone left a very racist comment on another local business' page so I checked their profile and they were wearing a big time construction shirt. I went to their profile to let them know about the comment, but it's clear to me after looking at the company's reposts, that it's the same person. I've screen recorded to show their reposts currently before they private them. This is honestly so scary to see here on PEI.

Do not support this business.

Wind

38 Upvotes

Sweet Jesus Murphy this island is windy. Easily the most wind I remember within the months of May- October (foliage on trees, generally pretty nice months). Winters a different story lol that wind is just numbing, you don’t even know it’s happening.

Upside is no hurricanes- but far more windy days.
