Who was affected when PEI joined Canada and why did PEI join Canada?
Practically every person in Canada was affected. PEI joined because they were beginning to go dry in the honey pot. In a nutshell, they were nearly bankrupt. The entire Domi…nion was affected because there was one more province in the Parliament, and you could say one more mouth to feed. Prince Edward Island joined confederation for as stated above the very high possibility of bankruptcy. The main industry of Prince Edward Island for the longest time had been shipbuilding. However the sales on wooden sailing ships were down as people didn't want them anymore they wanted, what else, but steam ships. So with the main industry down the tubes, and not much money being brought in from the secondary and third industries (Agriculture & Fisheries) the fear was about that soon they would become bankrupt. Also at the time the government of the island attempted to build a railway; railways are very expensive, and this was not a great time (early 1870's) to build one as there was no money about. There is also rumors that the government wanted to build a railway then so that they WOULD go into debt so that they would have to get bailed out by Canada, therefore getting themselves a nice "reward". However the 1st railway plan was affordable, but soon the plan was changed to go through many on the main community's on the island, wither because citizens were complaining, or the government wanted to need a reason to join Canada. Either way the plan was a flop and by 1873 the railway was only halfway done and there were no funds to complete it. So the Islander's sent a delegation to Ottawa to speak with the Canadian government to see if a deal could be worked out. (MORE)

Are Shar pei good dogs?
Shar-peis are not considered amongst the most intelligent dogs (please see below in Related Links for more information). However, they are not unintelligent, and the margin be…tween the ends of the spectrum is not wide. Shar-peis are one of the 14 ancient breeds. Through breeding for protection, hunting, and fighting, Shar-peis have a very distinct personality, and are typically considered amongst the most difficult to train. They very often exhibit stubbornness, aloofness, and autonomous behavior - though they are very loving and highly protective of their perceived "pack" (that is, the person or persons who care for them). They are often cited as "one-owner-dogs", which means that even with only a couple raising them, they will still show strong preference for only one of the two caretakers. If you are considering adopting or buying a Shar-pei, please be aware, these are widely regarded as very difficult dogs to raise, and are very strongly discouraged to first-time or novice dog owners/trainers.

How much is a shar-pei?
I got one five years ago from a pet store and he was approx. $1,300 with his shots. Also, if he/she is really wrinkly, you may have to get the eyes stiched ($200). This is to …avoid eye infections, or, like mine, to improve their vision. (MORE)

What is the answer to 20c plus 5 equals 5c plus 65?
20c + 5 = 5c + 65 Divide through by 5: 4c + 1 = c + 13 Subtract c from both sides: 3c + 1 = 13 Subtract 1 from both sides: 3c = 12 Divide both sides by 3: c = 4 20c + 5 = 5c …+65 20c - 5c= 65 - 5.
15c = 60.
15c/15 = 60/15.
c = 4 (alternative method). (MORE)

What is the terrain in PEI?
Its terrain can be characterized as gently rolling hills. White sandy beaches are predominant along the northern shores while red sandstone cliffs edge its southern exp…osure. Rich red soil makes the Island an ideal place for mixed farming. The redness of the soil is due to its high iron-oxide (rust) content. (MORE)
