There are many interesting facts found throughout its more than 100 data tables, including details of our province’s economic performance in 2014. These tables give us current and historic socio-economic information about Prince Edward Island. As a government, we use the information found in the Annual Statistical Review to make important policy decisions. It helps us determine where, and when, programs and services are needed. The information within the Annual Statistical Review is compiled from a variety of sources, including, provincial government departments, the private sector, and Statistics Canada. The Statistics Canada information is important, even though it is gathered from the current voluntary National Household Survey instead of the mandatory long-form census, which was ended in 2011. Our Island communities are realizing that data gathered through the voluntary survey is not as accurate and complete as it was under the mandatory census. I would like to personally thank the staff of our Statistics Bureau for their hard work and diligence in gathering the information for this year’s document. All statistics have references to their original source, and I encourage you to consult them – you can also visit www.gov.pe.ca/finance/statistics for current statistical information. If you have any suggestions, comments or statistical inquiries, please contact the staff of the Prince Edward Island Statistics Bureau at (902) 368-4030.

The Mi’kmaq called the island Epekwitk, meaning “cradle on the waves.” Europeans later changed the pronunciation of the name to Abegweit. Historians credit the European discovery of the Island to Jacques Cartier, the French navigator, who claimed the Island for Francis I, King of France, on July 1, 1534. In 1720 the Island, then called Île Saint Jean, was colonized by 300 French settlers, sponsored by a commercial company of the Comte de Saint Pierre. The Island was ceded to Great Britain in 1763. Two years later the designated capital city of the Island of St. John took on the name Charlotte Town in honour of Queen Charlotte, wife of King George III of England. In 1799 the colony was renamed Prince Edward Island in honour of Edward, Duke of Kent, who was then commander of the British forces in North America. Prince Edward Island is known as the “Cradle of Confederation”, because the Charlottetown Conference, held there in 1864, initiated the movement toward Canada’s federation. The Island became a province in 1873. The Armorial Bearings of the Province of Prince Edward Island, shown above, were proclaimed to come into force on December 13, 2002. The centrepiece is the Shield of Arms, granted by King Edward VII in 1905, featuring the English heraldic lion, a large oak tree on the right and three young saplings on the left. The mature tree originally represented England, while the three saplings stand for the three counties - Kings, Queens and Prince. Scrolled along the bottom of the Shield of Arms are the Latin words Parva Sub Ingenti, which, when translated, read: The small under the protection of the great. The surrounding elements of the Armorial Bearings illustrate significant characteristics of the province, its position in the Canadian federation, its founding peoples and its natural resources. 41 st Annual Statistical Review 3 Key Facts About Prince Edward Island Land area ................................................. 5,656 sq. km (1,397,628 acres) Total area of farms .................................... 2,405 sq. km (594,324 acres) Population (July 1, 2014, preliminary) ........................................146,283 2011 Census count (May 10, 2011) ...............................................140,204 Total private dwellings (2011 Census) .......................................... 66,943 Urban population (2011 Census) .................................................. 80,975 Rural population (2011 Census) ................................................ 59,229 PROVINCIAL FLAG Farm population (2011 Census) .....................................................5,150 The design of the Prince Edward Island Flag is modelled after the Coat of Arms Non-farm population (2011 Census) ...........................................132,225 in rectangular shape and is bordered on Francophone population (2011 Census)..........................................5,190 the three sides away from the mast by alternate bands of red and white.

Today more and more Islanders are recognizing the need for emo- tional support and information when dealing with physical or men- tal health problems and life's stressful situations. They are looking to self-help groups and community resources as health resources. Emotional and social support can greatly relieve the stress related to health problems and can increase one’s ability to cope success- fully with day-to-day living. The Canadian Mental Health Association/Prince Edward Island Division (CMHA) has been promoting and assisting self-help groups since the fall of 1988 through the Self-Help Clearinghouse (now the Consumer and Family Support Program). Information about self-help groups and community resources, technical assis- tance and resources on mental health and mental illness are pro- vided by the CMHA for the general public at our facilities in Char- lottetown, Summerside and Alberton. This Directory is a part of that service and together these services form our Consumer and Family Support Program.

  • Islanders' Guide to the Mental Health Act
    ______________________________ _____________________________ Community Legal Information Association of Prince Edward Island, Inc. Islanders' Guide to the Mental Health Act Prince Edward Island's Mental Health Act defines mental disorder as "a substantial disorder of thought, mood, perception, orientation or memory that seriously impairs judgment, behaviour, capacity to recognize reality or ability to meet the ordinary demands of life." If a person seems to have lost the ability to understand and appreciate how they are behaving or thinking or if he or she is unable to reason or remember things, and this seriously affects their behaviour, they may have a mental disorder. However, the Act clearly says that a mental handicap or learning disability is not a mental disorder in and of itself. Hillsborough Hospital, the Queen Elizabeth Hospital and the Prince County Hospital are psychiatric institutions which provide in-patient treatment for some people suffering from mental disorders. As well, some people receive treatment as out-patients at community-based mental health clinics or treatment centres where mental illness can be professionally diagnosed and treated. An Addiction Facility may also have the authority to admit people as involuntary patients under the Mental Health Act when the mental disorder is caused by alcohol or other drugs. For more information about this, call the staff of an addiction treatment program. Admissions There are two types of admission to a mental health facility: voluntary, when the patient agrees to or asks for treatment, and involuntary, when a patient does not agree to receive treatment. In certain circumstances, people may also be admitted for assessment and/or treatment under the Criminal Code of Canada.
