Something to try with Telus is to call and simply ask for a better rate. I’ve been with Telus for years and have always been happy with them, and on several occasions, I’ve called and re-negotiated my contract to get more for less.

A+ chat with Sandy though.

Seems like Islanders want to complain and growl and never change anything. They think they are somehow more important or better than everyone else.

Islanders need to learn that without the rest of thre world they won’t survive.
I can’t believe that actual business people are taking the City to court over the roaundabout.

I know as one citizen that I will go out of my way to NEVER do business with any of these businesses in the future. Any business that wants to stifle development or stop the city and province from moving forward doesn’t deserve to be in business.

On another note, what I notice is that the road leading to the hospital on Riverside Drive lacks traffic lights, a sidewalk or a guardrail on the little bridge. Here we have a major highway the Bypass which goes right by the hospital and there is a set of lights but when you turn towards town, you enter into darkness until you get up by the Waste Watch Incinerator.

Ron McKinley is doing a great job of getting new bridges, traffic lights etc. but this little stretch of road leading to our major hospital sits in darkness. The visibility during a rain or snow storm is very poor in that area, especially when crossing the bridge. A pedestrian has already been killed on Riverside Drive since the driver never saw the person. What will it take to get a few traffic lights installed here and a sidewalk. They are building sidewalks on the Lower Malpeque Road and the Brackley Point Road, which is great but why is this area neglected. Does anyboy else feel the same way? I have already emailed Mr. McKinley with my concerns, but he hasn’t even acknowledged it YET.

I would be interested to see if any of you share my concerns and if you think traffic lights and a sidewalk should be a priority for this major traffic area and the entrance to our hospital.

Islanders as whole have become one big bunch of whiney self improtant a-holes who think PEI is the center of some silly little universe.

If the attitudes that prevail in PEI today had been here 75 years ago we would still be using horse abd buggies and car would be illegal.

Islanders neeed to start to look around and grow up or else the rest of the planet will qucikly leave them where they belong alone in the world.

If someone can’t use the roundabout than just go around it there are lots of other options for people to get around that area of Ch’town.

As far as the business owners go I think this shows a complete lack of respect for the travelling public and shows the only people these businesses care about is themselves.

mO, you are right about the roundabout (I’m growing sick of that word) in Summerside being a big joke. The province built something suitable for a city street but not a highway. A traffic circle, like the ones in Pictou and Port Elgin, would have worked better in Summerside.

Charlottetown purchased land around the existing intersection, so engineers had more room than what we see now when they planned out the design. From my understanding, it’s going to be quite large and double lane.

My fear is not on whether or not a roundabout will work at this particular intersection but whether Islanders will actually be able to handle one with a constant flow of traffic from all directions.
