Charles Barkley Visiting PEI??

15 Upvotes

I heard some people say that former NBA star and current TV personality Charles Barkley was visiting PEI for a charity golf tournament this week? Apparently some people and restaurants in Charlottetown are posting some photos with him?

I feel like every summer there is at least one random celebrity that visits PEI and I’m like “wow, didn’t expect them to be here” haha. Pretty cool I guess.

Visiting from New Brunswick, staying outside of Summerside.

Enjoying my morning coffee and I see this big ass boat! Apologies for the quality of the picture. Would anyone happen to know what it is?

4 Upvotes

I read at least 2,000 Prince Edward Islanders took part in the fighting at Vimy, with hundreds more serving as nurses, in transport, or other support roles behind the lines. The Island contingent suffered 65 casualties, including 31 deaths.

Giving away two Anne of Green Gables play tickets, Sept 5, 7:30pm

10 Upvotes

Hello everyone,

We got two tickets to the play, but unfortunately had a change of plans for our roadtrip (going back to Ottawa) and cannot attend.

*** The tickets are for 30 yo or under! **\*

Located at Confederation Center of the Arts

We're happy to give them away to someone else.

In case if this post gets too much attention, I'll pick at random. Please only comment that you'd like the tickets if you know for sure you can make it to the play.

Selfpost Most of you won’t care, and that’s fine, but those of you that partake in the wacky tobacky, we deserve better than PEICannabis is willing or able to offer.

If you happen to care, take 2 minutes and send an email along on their Contact Us page.

PEIC is being run by people who either don’t understand, or don’t care to understand, the actual product being sold.

I want to purchase my weed and dabs legally, supporting the cause and community with the taxes charged. But I’m not wasting my money on garbage, so it’s back to legacy market for me.

I’m sure I won’t be the only one. A budtender mentioned to my gf the stock of concentrate has diminished more and more since PEIC generously allowed disposable vapes and 510 cart sales.

Lenox thinks their bud is worth $200+/Oz, and they carry bunk concentrate. Can’t even support them without wasting money.

Just frustrated. We deserve better.

Question Pregnancy Guidance

16 Upvotes

Hi. I’m a first time mom and I’m very early in my pregnancy but since it’s my first baby, I’m not sure what to do or where to go.

I have a phone call scheduled with a nurse at my family doctor’s office in September but there’s no guidance on how long you wait for certain appointments like an ultrasound, when you’re referred to an OBGYN and what that process looks like on the provincial website. I just feel like I am stabbing in the dark in a time where things already feel uncertain. TIA.

Edit: I live in Charlottetown.
