The City of Charlottetown is asking youth to fill out a survey designed to get at the heart of why some young people leave the Island and why others decide to stay — and that survey has many of you talking.
CBC P.E.I. posted the story about the survey to our Facebook page and the post was quickly flooded with comments about why people left or why people stayed.

A lack of job opportunities in P.E.I.
Many of the comments focused on how hard it is to get a job on P.E.I. — and that it's even more difficult to find one that pays well.
