Box 774, Charlottetown Prince Edward Island, C1A 7L3 Tel.: (902) 368-5895 Fax: (902) 368-6500 Government House Government House, also known as Fanningbank, is the official residence of the Lieutenant Governor of Prince Edward Island, the personal representative in the province of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II, the Queen of Canada. In 1834 Government House was built with funds advanced through an issue of Treasury Notes to be repaid with monies raised for the purpose by an Assessment on Land. It cost, in the currency of the day, £3,142.17.3, and was intended to serve as a Vice-Regal residence for the Lieutenant Governors of the then British colony of Prince Edward Island. The architectural design of the house is Georgian, with echoes of the Palladian tradition, and was the work of Isaac Smith. The wooden building was constructed by the architect in association with Henry Smith and Nathan Wright, a firm of local builders. The main structure is 95 feet long by 65 feet wide with two wings at the rear of the residence measuring 28 feet long by 25 feet wide, under which was placed a full Island sandstone foundation, most of which still supports the residence. The sills are 15 inches square and the floor joists are 4 inches by 11 inches and are laid 18 inches from center to center.

Canadian Political Science Review Vol. 10 No. 1 2016 July-December: 31-57. The 2015 Provincial Election in Prince Edward Island Don Desserud Professor of Political Science Department of Political Science University of Prince Edward Island [email protected] Jeff Collins Doctoral Candidate Department of Political Science Carleton University [email protected] Abstract: Prince Edward Island's 65th General Election was held 4 May 2015. The Prince Edward Island Liberal Party (Liberals) won 18 of the Island's 27 seats, capturing its third straight majority. The Progressive Conservative Party of Prince Edward Island (PCs) improved its standing to eight seats, once again forming the Official Opposition. The Green Party of Prince Edward Island (Greens) picked up a single seat - its party leader winning that party's first ever in a PEI election. The New Democratic Party of Prince Edward Island (NDP) did not win a seat, despite garnering slightly more votes island-wide than did the Greens. The surprise of the election may not have been the historic election of the leader of the Greens, but the fact that two candidates tied, resulting in a coin toss to determine the winner. Keywords: PEI, election, Green Party, electoral reform 31 Canadian Political Science Review Vol. 10 No. 1 2016 July-December: 31-57. Introduction: Prince Edward Island’s 65th General Election was held 4 May 2015. The Prince Edward Island Liberal Party (Liberals) won 18 of the Island’s 27 seats, capturing its third straight majority. The Progressive Conservative Party of Prince Edward Island (PCs) improved its standing to eight seats, once again forming the Official Opposition, but failed to elect its leader.
