Despite this divine right to citizenship, Islanders adopt all who come to stay and its 1.2 million annual visitors. They come to the Island to enjoy its pastoral scenery, relaxing white sandy beaches and relaxing pace.
Agriculture, tourism, fishing and forestry are the economic mainstays of the PEI economy.The chief crop is potato, for which the Province is famous.
