Confederation reflection

1. I Represent the PEI colony
2. The biggest and most important issues for our colony were trading and transportation. Because wen are an island we are very isolated and would like the chance to find new ways of trading and transportation. Another isssue for us was debt.
3. Our group came up with having a ferry system be out in place between the colonies in order to deal with our trading and transportation issue.
4. We agreed to paying 5% of the railway if the Newprovince payed 15% for the ferry terminal. We also teamed up with New Brunswick lots to agree on forms of voting and government so we would both be happy and hopefully win the voting for the preposals we wanted if we worked together.
5. We are happy the the debate because we are getting a ferry terminal, Navy and army protection at a lower percentage cost than we originally thought we would pay. We are also happy with the form of government we have, Representation by delegation is the best option for us because of out low population.

6. I wish that we would be more secure with our money and debt. With us having such a low population it is very easy for us to go into debt and when talking with the other groups none of them said they would help us cover our debt because then they would have to pay more money and raise their taxes more as well.
