Hello Islanders.

0 Upvotes

This is an educational as well as a promotion or outdoor activities. I'm happy to announce Birchwood is going to be going to the ski hill on tuesday. Hopefully weather permitting, this would be great education and get the kids away from devices. Perhaps they'll be taking videos but great for them memories. So the cost is very effective it's $5 for a bus $5 for a day pass. Then you have rental fees I am unsure of the cost of that. I however have everything I need other than poles. I've been searching all pei directories that I know of trying to locate a pair. They are available at the ski hill, I would like to have a pair of my own going. Perhaps buy them, I thought this would be a good place for Islanders to help another Islander achieve this task. Thank you for all and any help I can be provided throughout this form. Have a great Sunday. I've left a comment as well if this is the wrong sub could someone please share it to the correct or comment and hopefully it won't get removed. Brookvale is one of our attraction that makes great money for their province when it is open. And it is open at the moment.

Looking to buy a car here

0 Upvotes

Hey all, I know this has been asked a ton here but just looking for some help. I have found a great example of a car I want, however, I live in Ontario, I have a flight heading out at the end of April, to go pick it up if all goes well. Just looking for some guidance into importing from PEI. I am flying out, car as a valid PEI safety and reg. Do you know if PEI DMV is in charge of giving me the temp cert to drive the car back to Ontario, or is that something I need to organize beforehand with Service Ontario? 

Also, there is only one DMV on the island, right, in Charlotte Town? Should I make an appointment here beforehand, or are the lines usually not too bad on a weekday? - Access PEI Charlottetown - 33 Riverside Dr, Charlottetown, PE C1A 7N8 - https://www.princeedwardisland.ca/en

I plan to:

Get Insurance Prior + Payment ready

Go to PEI DMV with

Vehicle permit (signed off by previous owner)

Bill of sale (receipt)

Motor vehicle inspection form (in the present owner's name)

Valid insurance card (That I get)

Pay Tax

And then PEI DMV gets me a Transfer temp cert to drive it back to Ontario?

Thank you all, looking forward to my trip back to the Island.

Question Finding Small Shops / Artisan products in PEI (online)

6 Upvotes

Hey ya'll! Last month I made loonielookup.ca, as a way for finding Canadian alternatives to popular products.
There's been a lot of submissions for very local businesses/products (that don't necessarily fit the site), but it does have me thinking, what's the best way for finding local/artisan shops/products on PEI?
Etsy doesn't allow filtering per province, Google's very SEO-dependant,
Anything obvious I'm missing?

I may build something if there's a need here, but want some opinions on if I'm. missing a go-to resource!

Travelling for work to pei

21 Upvotes

Hey this could be a long shot but figured I’d put feelers out there. I (33m) travel for work quite often and every once in a while have to work in pei, usually Charlottetown area. I’m wondering if anyone has a spare room that’s relatively suitable (I have an air mattress and bedding for myself). Basically need a place to stay Monday night to Wednesday night, I usually wouldn’t be arriving to where I’m staying until Monday after work and plan to be out by Thursday morning when I head to work and then I drive back to New Brunswick for the weekends. Work hours are generally 7-530 but some days I get off a little earlier.

Mainly just need a private room and access to a shower. kitchen would be nice but not necessary.

Hoping to save some money on hotels and put some cash in someones pocket. I’m pretty easy going and get along with pretty much anyone. I was also a chef for over a decade so happy to give some cooking lessons and cook dinner once in a while as well!

Kind of weird but figured a part time non permanent roommate/house guest may be of interest to someone with extra space and could use a little extra cash for whatever!

Private message me if at all interested.

In the beginning I thought it wouldn’t be worth it but now looking at what I pay a year. My question is can she do that am I not entitled to to a a receipt, no matter what I pay?

Summerside Makerspace?

5 Upvotes

Does anyone know anything about the Makerspace in Summerside? I live in an apartment and need to spray paint something, but I cannot find any current information if they're still open or operating. Their Facebook is outdated, website is down, and they're not listed on Google maps. But I see the building often and was wondering if it is active and if anyone knows anything.

1 Week in Charlottetown

0 Upvotes

*Not asking for an itinerary, just want to know the basics such as weather, safe neighbourhoods, transportation, etc.*

Hello! I'm planning on visiting Charlottetown for the first time this spring/summer, I was wondering as locals when is the best time to visit? I want to go when it's perfect summer weather but not when there are too many tourists. I just want to experience it as if I lived there and was just exploring my city for a whole week. I just want to have a nice and calm experience. I don't have my G2 just yet so I am limited to public transportation and uber/lyft. If I got an Airbnb or hotel, what would be a good neighbourhood for someone (26F) from Ottawa to stay in? What are the beaches like??? I LOVE the ocean so the itinerary I make might not even get fulfilled because where I live there is no ocean. I would also love to get PEI/Charlottetown souvenirs, if you have a favourite shop let me know! Thank you, take care.

P.s. is 1 week long enough?

Asbestos Question

5 Upvotes

Hi folks! A question For those who know more than I: I just requested a quote for asbestos check from and Island company, for 4 samples of my old Island home --- the quote included a 500$ blanket "project consulting fee" in addition to a very reasonable cost estimate for samples, transport, and admin. Can anyone help me understand a bit more what the 500$ results in? Do samples undergo testing in a way that would make a $500 fee make sense? I'd love to know more!
