The story of P.E.I.’s (disastrous) railroad is intrinsically linked to our place in Canada, but could moving toward greener transportation bring us back to the almighty train? Guest co-host Travis Kingdon hopes so.

We are taking a short break and coming back with new episodes in two weeks. In the meantime - send your questions to goodquestionpei@cbc.ca

It's hard to find any corner of the Island not touched by post-tropical storm Fiona. Especially in the woods. Replanting has started, but what should we be planting? And can the species we choose help P.E.I. build resiliency against climate change?

She's a legend, she's an icon. Anne (with an 'E') needs no introduction for most Canadians, let alone Islanders. But how did Lucy Maud Montgomery's books and characters become so popular? And why do people come here from all over the world? We hear from Islanders and an expert on Anne and Montgomery's legacy.

Lots of other provinces allow it. People are certainly asking for it. So, what's preventing us from enjoying a beer or a glass of wine at a picnic? We talk about the influence of prohibition, culture, and the pandemic, and how they flow into our current rules here.

The idea of a basic income guarantee — making sure everyone has enough money in their bank accounts to live — has been floated on P.E.I. for years. A recent report says the Island is the perfect trial ground for the rest of the country. So what's the holdup? Trish Altass is here to explain how it would work and bust some myths. 

Calling all political nerds! This one is for you. The P.E.I. legislature opens for the spring sitting next week. CBC's Kerry Campbell stops by to break it down and answer your questions about the room where it happens.

Anyone who crosses the bridge has to pay at least $50, but is that fair? Should Islanders get to come and go for free, or at least at a discount? We look at the complicated relationship Islanders have with the Confederation Bridge, and how the bridge has changed Island life.

Didn't the government promise one years ago? And what's the deal with harm reduction? The opioid crisis has made its mark on the Island, and the CBC's Tony Davis explains why it's been so difficult to do anything about it.

Debating upgrading to that executive membership? We're finding out why Costco, and big box warehouse stores like it, haven't set up shop here on the Island yet. Will we ever get one? And would it be a good, or bad thing for P.E.I.?

Are you struggling to get a family doctor? You’re not alone. There are 36,000 Islanders on the waitlist. So, what’s the problem, and what can we do to land a spot in a practice? We get advice from a family doctor and find out what's really going on with the registry.

Whether you’ve been an Islander for six months or sixty years - you'll know there's just something special about this quirky little place. In our new podcast, we're answering your questions on this giant sandbar we call home. It can be about anything - big or small, serious or silly. We'll use our sources, the archives and hit the streets to find the answers.
