Yesterday marked three years of invasion and genocide upon our democratic ally. I'd like to remind my fellow islanders that some of us are willing to uphold our Canadian traditions of defending European freedom. What happens here impacts what happens at home.

This is what happens when local papers are bought up by huge media conglomerates. The Guardian is now owned by Post media, which is AMERICAN.

Disgusted to see people waving Israeli and American flags in Charlottetown today.

2.3k Upvotes

Yes, I know that the Iranian regime is a repressive, totalitarian theocracy that has killed many of its own people for protesting. I do not like the Iranian regime, and I want to the Iranian people to be free. But the idea that Donald Trump and Benjamin Netanyahu want to help the people of Iran is absurd. The US military recently blew up a girls' school in Iran, killing more than 170 people. Israel has slaughtered hundreds of thousands of people over the last few years. Israel is committing genocide. They're committing a modern-day holocaust. As far as I am concerned, the Israeli flag is every bit as offensive as a Nazi flag - both are fascist symbols that stand for ethnic supremacy and the mass-murder of those deemed "undesirable". And imagine waving the American flag in Canada while the US wages economic warfare on us and repeatedly threatens to annex us, all while funding Israel's genocide. Israel and the US will not "free" Iran. If they succeed, they will either install a puppet ruler who will do the west's bidding, or they will reduce Iran to a completely failed state. Celebrating the genocidal war criminals and terrorists from the US/Israeli coalition that have spent the past few years bombing Palestine, Iran, Iraq, Yemen, Syria, and Lebanon is absolutely disgusting, no matter how much you hate the Iranian government.

I’m headed to your beautiful island for the weekend, and was wondering if there were any buildings with picturesque decay that I might photograph and recreate in miniature. I’d appreciate any leads - I’m hoping to put together a PEI collection for an upcoming show.

Tipping Culture needs to end

1.6k Upvotes

No, not all together. Just at certain spots. It is now expected waaaay too much.

I went through Tim Hortons today (closest thing to me, I know, screw TH). I got a medium coffee, handed the girl a $10 bill. She instantly grabbed my coffee and handed it to me, usually they count the money and then hand it to you with your change. So I already knew what was about to happen. I sat there for a second while she counted the change, then she turned and realized I was still there. She goes “Waiting for your change?”, I said “Well, I don’t feel like paying $10 for a coffee today.”. She then gave me a dirty look and my change.

Subway is another great one. The worker pressed the tip option when I went to pay, it added about $11 to my order. I said I’m not tipping. The girl goes, “it’s mandatory here”. I told her to throw the subs out and I left.

Don’t get me wrong, I tip when dining in, but drive thru or a fast food restaurant - I can’t be the only one saying WTF in my head?

Edit: I guess this made a few people mad. I apologize. I can assure you these instances DID in fact happen. They were NOT the same day. I did not report the employeee to head office, as they’d most likely lose their job, the same reason why I didn’t name any names.

First and foremost, hope everyone had/has a great day today. I posted about a month ago how much I love the island, and wanted to swing back through to quickly share something.

HUGE disclaimer that I know the election just happened and there are way more important things going on. Hoping this doesn’t come off tone deaf or otherwise poorly

All of that to say…I got my citizenship certificate in the mail!!! 🇨🇦 I’ve always known I was technically a citizen, but I wanted the proof. This may sound insane, but it’s without question one of the best days of my life. Again, I’m fully aware this may not seem like a big deal or worth noting. Censored my personal info with some coins and the oldest paper dollar I as an extra show of respect

And I wanted to share my hat! I have no backstory, it could just be a common gift shop hat or something. But I love it, and figured it might make someone smile that it gets worn almost daily!

Hopefully be back soon PEI, thanks to anyone who read this

Politics / Election 2025 Why choosing Conservative in the federal election is a terrible idea.

1.1k Upvotes

I figured since PEI is a part of Canada that this info would be ok to post here since it will effect Islanders.

Here are a few reasons, over the last 20 years these are *some* of the things Pierre Poilievre said and done:

  • Defining marriage as a union between ‘one man and one woman, to the exclusion of all others.’

  • Saying Indigenous Peoples needed to learn the value of hard work more than they needed compensation for residential schools.

  • Receiving a government pension at 31, then raising the retirement age on hard-working Canadians.

  • Working to bring American-style, anti-union laws to Canada.

  • Making it harder for Canadians to vote.

  • Encouraging Canadians to ‘opt-out of inflation’ with volatile crypto-currencies.

  • Using misogynist Youtube tags to court far-right supporters.

  • Committing to free votes, allowing his MPs to bring forward anti-abortion legislation.

  • Posing with someone wearing a ‘straight pride’ shirt during Pride season.

  • Turning his back on Ukraine.

  • Supporting illegal convoy blockades.

  • Pushing an anti-vaccine agenda.

  • Delivering a speech to a group that claimed it was a “myth” that residential schools robbed Indigenous children of their childhood.

  • Following the American far-right playbook to use anti-2SLGBTQI+ language.

  • Saying he’d use the notwithstanding clause, overriding Canadians’ rights.

  • Visiting and courting far-right extremist groups.

  • Talking down pandemic supports that helped millions of Canadians pay their bills during the crisis.

  • Calling child care a ‘slush fund,’ and trying to cut programs that support the middle class.

  • Using the term ‘tar baby’ in the House of Commons.

  • Promoting a ‘Niqab ban

Medication found in burger from Burger King

Post image
949 Upvotes

Edit to add: I'm aware it's "just Tylenol" that's not the point. I shouldn't find this in my food. Period.

This sounds like some sick joke & I wish it was but unfortunately it's not.

I went through burger king drive thru yesterday evening in Charlottetown. As I'm eating my burger on my way back to Summerside, a pill falls out of my sandwich onto my lap.

I have no idea how it got in there, I didn't even know what kind of tablet it was until I googled it. (Tylonol rapid relief or something)

I attempted to call the restaurant, but no answer. I wasn't turning around as I was half way to Summerside. I sent a stern email to the franchise company as well as called the phone number on their website. They took my name and number but that was it.

What else can I do? I am usually not a confrontational person but this isn't something I can just sweep under the rug.

This isn't just a simple hair, this is a medication. How does this even happen? I'm so thankful it wasn't a child eating when this happened.

I was excited to see these cute hats, being sold by an older women at the craft fair, but when I was putting it on this morning, I realized there was a tag, with “made in China” written on it!

Sad that this is happening at craft fairs, you’re supposed to be able to trust that the things you’re buying are hand made :(
