One last look at all the P.E.I. candidates running in the 2025 federal election

One last look at all the P.E.I. candidates running in the 2025 federal election

CBC

Prince Edward Islanders head to the polls to vote in Canada's federal election on April 28. 

CBC's Cody MacKay spoke with all the federal candidates running to become or remain a member of Parliament representing one of P.E.I.'s four ridings: Egmont, Malpeque, Charlottetown and Cardigan.

From tip to tip, candidates in every riding said Islanders are concerned about tariffs, housing, health care and the cost of living. 

Check out the videos produced for the series, and the articles that accompanied them, to learn about how the various candidates said they would address the concerns affecting Islanders and Canadians. 

Egmont is P.E.I.'s westernmost riding, representing Islanders with a variety of jobs and backgrounds.

There's fishing and farming in the west, and the tax centre and Prince County Hospital in the east.  

Of the four ridings on P.E.I., this is the only one that has changed hands in recent years from the Liberals to the Conservatives and back to the Liberals once more.

There are four candidates vying for the seat in this riding. 

The central P.E.I. riding of Malpeque is one with a growing population, particularly in towns like Kensington and Cornwall. 

Balancing population growth and the need for housing with the protection of farmland is something residents in the riding have expressed concerns about, some candidates said. 

It's also home to the P.E.I. end of the Confederation Bridge to New Brunswick, the toll on which has been a concern for Islanders for some time. Federal leaders have weighed in on the issue in recent weeks, promising to reduce or eliminate the toll should they be elected. 

The riding has remained Liberal for more than 30 years.

Five candidates are in the running to secure the federal seat in this riding. 

P.E.I.'s Charlottetown riding is the province's most urban constituency. Smaller than the other three ridings in geography, its population is comparable, with just under 40,000 residents.
