Final Proposal
| Conditions Carried Over from Preliminary Proposal (Must Haves) | Justification for Continued Insistence |
| Equal Represenation | We still want Representation by Population as it seems like many other colonies would benefit from it as well as ourselves. With this, the voices of small colonies can be heard, and new ideas can be considered. |
| Railroad | By building a railroad across PEI it will help with the transportation of goods between ports, this will help the colonies around us as they will be able to obtain our goods faster. |
| Military | We want a stronger military to help prevent being taken over, as our land can be useful to Canada for farming as our land is very fertile. |
| Expand Economy | We can expand our economy by using more of our land for farming, this will benefit other colonies as well as they will be receiving the goods from being farmed. |

| Modified, Deleted or New Conditions | Justification for Change |
| Independence | We do not need independence as much anymore, as we are continuing renting the farmland from Britain so we can not be independent |
| Buying farmland from Britain | We can continue renting the farmland, as not many colonies agree with this condition that we have, and not willing to help pay. |

Preliminary Proposal
| Conditions for joining Confederation
(what do you want?) |
Justification
(explain why you should get this & how might others benefit from it) |
| Help us buy the rented farmland we got from Britain for $800,000 or something more reasonable to help pay off our debt | This will help others as it gives farmer more land to work with. Farming Is also the biggest source of income and is beneficial for everyone |
| Building a nation wide railway will help with trading | Trading produce will benefit many and being separated from Britain means a little bit more safety |
| We want independence | We wont have to be connected with Britian anymore, and get closer to joining Canada which will allow residences to use our land for farming, also if we join with the other provinces of Canada, it will make trading a lot easier. |
| We want more protection because we are so small | We will have better security and will be more efficient in case of an attack because we are such a easy target once America gets through the colonies closer to mainland (if they decide to attack) We have good land for potentially a very good business in selling agriculture so we want to keep this land apart |
| Stop rep by pop- we do not want you to make decisions based on rep by pop because colonies like us will not be considered fairly | We are not the only colony that has this problem so if we can can compensate, then our voices and new ideas can be heard, and other colonies that are too small to speak up (like we are now) can relate and have a say as well. |
