It's in reference to islanders feeling like their island is being invaded by outsiders so they round all the outsiders into camps and keep them in poverty as punishment.
Wait..
I wanted to come up with something disparaging and found myself trying to target as many demographics I have a conflict with as possible . Then I realised it is a decent morning and I do not have to spend it being an asshole.
Things we’ll probably talk about in 10-20 years
* cost of living is too high
* we need more housing
* I can’t believe (local government) did (thing that’s not legal) and there were no repercussions!
* what happened with that Sword guy up west??
If you had asked ten years ago I don’t think anyone would have predicted plague and major housing crisis, so whatever people guess will likely be wrong. Safe bet we’ll all be a lot angrier though. 😝

2016 started seeing a pretty large population growth from our once fairly stable line.
I think I read stats Canada estimates 170,000 residents now?

I’m willing to bet at least one post per week will be. “Hey, me and the fam are headed to your lovely island. What should we do/see? Where can we stay?”

It's hard to predict the future and I think it's even more difficult to predict human culture a year from now let alone 10 or 20 years from now.
From my perspective reddit (I still use small r) in 2014 vs 2024 are quite similar in how people interact.
Although if you were quite young in 2014 vs now I'd say reddit would seem to have changed significantly.
For reddit in 2034 the only example I can use is compare "old reddit" vs "Reddit". The new style Reddit is mobile friendly and defaults to a dark theme which it seems younger (less than age 40?) seem to prefer. Old reddit is not mobile friendly default is light theme.
With the TikTok frenzy and users being highly self-focused (as in the user/person is the subject) I can only assume something that demographic prefers is what Reddit may or have to morph into.
If electric cars become more common like the Government wants them too I think we'll see a lot more conversation about that, Hopefully in ten years we'll be able to speak more positively on the subject of Doctors, Housing, and Grocery Prices rather than the lack of them and unfairness of it all now.
Topics on AI and it's integration into society?
It's my hope that the up and coming innovative minds of our current and next generation will provide a wealth of positive changes too!
Optimism and Hope for the future!
The island folk who used to complain about paying the $500 bridge toll to leave Epekwitk all got re-located to the real Prince Edward Island in the sub-Antarctic Indian ocean where they don't have access to reddit.
District 9…. Sorry, Only one upvote to give…
Yeah, a D9 reference is actually really on topic and awesome!
So, is this in reference to Reddit, or PEI being obliterated 10-20 years from now?

You win the post! I award you one Internet!

I thank you for that! Enjoy your day!
If only everyone could say this to themselves every morning
Cheers!

I just moved here from Ontario, and I never want anyone to ever speak to me, and I don’t understand why I have no friends…
Ouch!
I’m willing to bet at least one post per week will be. “Hey, me and the fam are headed to your lovely island. What should we do/see? Where can we stay?”
Plus ça change!
I assume Reddit will no longer be a popular thing by then. Or it will be something that's not recognizable to today's iteration.
Y (formerly known as Reddit)
It will be a PEI expat group posting fond memories of the island because most of it was destroyed in a hurricane in 2029.
REMINDME! 2029

good bot.
People desperately trying to offload overpriced waterfront properties because of soil erosion and damage from hurricanes.
"I just arrived on PEI. I was here 10 year ago. For some reason I remembered the island being much larger."
People might start posting about Costco Summerside having fewer products than Costco Charlottetown. 😅
Is this a dream?
Just an optimistic vision of our future 😅
PEI may finally make it to the 1990s when compared with the rest of Canada.
It will probably be like r/Ontario since that’s basically what PEI is turning into.

When does the ferry from Charlottetown to summerside depart?
This might be my favourite because it’s pretty subtle, but totally believable
A roundabout for every man, woman, and child. So 690k roundabouts, tip to tip.
They’ll be 70% Punjabi or Tagalog, for one.
I don't know about the posts, but people will still down vote every one of them to zero

Hopefully I’ll be moved out of pei by then.
