Prince Edward Island (PEI) has a population of approximately 157,000 people. It is Canada's smallest province measuring only 2,185 square miles, slightly smaller than the state of Delaware. Almost half of its population is centered in the city of Charlottetown and surrounding area. PEI can only be accessed via airplane, the Confederation Bridge from New Brunswick, and in the summer by ferry from Nova Scotia.
PEI's Rules of Civil Procedure are largely modeled on those of Ontario, with only a few unique differences. Accordingly, the litigation process is very similar to how it has been described for Ontario.
