    Extractions: THE EVOLUTION OF A CULTURAL LANDSCAPE Introduction to Prince Edward County: the natural/cultural mix, linked with pastoral, coastal and rural settlement vistas Prince Edward County, famous as a part of United Empire Loyalist settlement, is an island community encompassing less than 700 square kilometres, which boasts of over 800 kms of shoreline with varying geological features. The relative isolation of the island has nurtured a special rural culture, with overlays back through time as this culture evolved according to the natural setting and proximity to various markets. Within the County are to be found a remarkable mixture of heritage features (natural, architectural, archeological, historical), each meeting defined criteria for heritage significance. The notion of a "Sunday drive" perhaps explains this best. It is not so much the idea of rushing from one "artifact" site to another that makes a drive interesting, but the overall impression of seeing the mixture of places and what links them. Prince Edward County is not an outdoor museum with a scattering of artifacts, but a place that presents its heritage assets in a setting that brings them to life through an evolving economy and culture having long term respect and human involvement within a vibrant ecosystem.

    Extractions: Prince Edward Island Prince Edward Island’s Celtic heritage is still very much alive, underlying many tourism and holiday-related events. This significant presence is due in large part to the fact that, in the early nineteenth century, people of Scottish origin comprised the vast majority of the colony’s population. They eventually settled across the Island, but were concentrated primarily along the north shore from Malpeque Bay to East Point and throughout Kings County and Eastern Queens County. Most of Prince Edward Island’s Scottish population came from the Highlands, Gaelic speakers who spoke little English. The Highlands were in a state of economic and social upheaval after the Battle of Culloden at the turn of the nineteenth century. These hardships, together with the highland “clearances,” religious discrimination against Catholics, a general population increase, and the exciting tales of life in America were more than sufficient to motivate Highland Scots to emigrate to the New World. Upon arriving on the Island, the Highlanders had no capital with which to buy land and found themselves entangled in “the land question” that has marked Island history. While under British rule, the Island was divided into lots owned primarily by absentee landlords who, in the majority of cases, made no effort to develop their land or foster decent and just relations with their tenant-farmers. On the other hand, the Lowland Scots, relatively few in number, enjoyed a more favourable fate than their Highland cousins did. Coming to the Island primarily from Glasgow or Greenock, they benefited from an economic and social status on par with the “English.”

    Extractions: back to New Brunswick Confederation Bridge. That is the name of the link attaching PEI and New Brunswick. This 14km long, billion dollar bridge was newly opened on June 1st to much fanfare and publicity. Its claim is "longest bridge over ice covered waters". Opening of the bridge has increase traffic on the island by 30% and some say changed it forever. Seeing this new bridge was one thing I looked forward to on the trip. My view of the bridge was like the picture on left since bicycles are not allowed on the bridge. There are actually nice 4ft shoulders, but it is more a safety concern with winds, etc. A free shuttle service (i.e. pickup truck) is provided for cyclists. Not a bad deal since autos pay $35 to cross the bridge. While I was being driven across, radio chatter concerned bridge attendants catching one cyclist trying to sneak across. Claims he spoke only French and didn't see the signs. They may write him up with an $85 ticket. Shuttle drops you off at a nice visitor area. Got info and maps about PEI.

    Extractions: Sieur de la Roque 1752 Census for Prince Edward Island/Ile Saint Jean Page 11 - Prince Edward Island On the way to Malpec.... We left Tracadie and took our way for Macpec [Malpec]. An hour after starting we found ourselves crossing the harbour of the petit Racica (Racicot). The entrance to the harbour lies north-north-east and south-south-west, and is navigable only by boats, and even then only at high tide, and in fine weather. The lands surrounding the harbour are covered with all kinds of hard wood fit for use in the construction of schooners, bateaux, and boats; whilst the soil is good in quality and fit for cultivation. About six o'clock in the evening while passing the harbour of the Grand Racico in a strong wind we were forced to put into port there. The harbour lies on the north coast eight leagues from Saint-Pierre. We found that the entrance of the harbour lies north-east and south-west, that it is about one hundred toises in width and that it is only accessable to vessels of 30 to 40 tons burden. Inside the entrance the harbour divides into two arms. One runs inland three leagues to the east-south-east towards Petit Racicot. The depth of the water has not been ascertained. The other half runs a league to the south-west and in it vessels anchor ordinarily in three to four fathoms of water whilst two rivers empty into this arm, the one in the centre and the other in the extremity.

    Extractions: Small islands often enjoy a distinct juridical personality. Many, whether fully sovereign or not, successfully deploy this 'gift of jurisdiction' to economic advantage, offsetting the potentially adverse effects of smallness, isolation and peripherality. These legal powers, reflected in supportive policy and culture, are themselves key economic resources in a development strategy. This book thus argues that jurisdictional status is, in itself, a resource critical for economic development. The comparative interplay of economic and juridical resources is also taken up in relation to four major economic domains: the primary sector; small-scale manufacturing; export of knowledge-based services and tourism. In the outcome, practical 'best practice' proposals are suggested. The text is introduced by a set of essays which explore the critical transversal themes of constitutionalism, international relations and culture from a comparative perspective, teasing out the specific advantages that these can bestow on small and insular players. The book documents the 'gift of jurisdiction' as a strategy enabler, with law and public policy serving as the fuel for development. All the more so in a decentralizing globalized world, which offers lucrative opportunities for differentiation and niche strategies for small island jurisdictions.

    http://gocanada.about.com/library/weekly/aa022599.htm
    
    Extractions: PEI has an international airport with connections from Toronto, Montreal, New York and Boston. If you are coming from Nova Scotia, you have a choice of taking the ferry from Caribou to Wood Islands or driving across the Confederation Bridge , one of the longest Bridges in the world (13Km). The nice part about the ferry and bridge tolls is they only paid if you decide to leave the island. Winter is just about over but you will still run into some cold weather for the next month or two, with temperatures down to -10C, but getting warmer as the season moves on. You can have a blooming good time in spring, (late May and June are the best times to visit the Island) when everything comes alive. Daytime temperatures up to the low 20's are normal. Summer is beautiful and not too hot. Temperatures in the high 20's but can go as high as 32C. Perfect for golfing one or more of the 17 courses (#18 - Dunderave Golf Course - opening July 1999) spread across the Island. September brings the fall with it's cool evenings, warm days, and a turning of colours you have to experience.
