Okay, that’s very strange. I was literally just viewing Instagram stories of my friend’s recent trip to Quebec, and a few of the photos were taken from Anticosti. It’s not a place you hear about every day. Yet then I log into Fluther a few minutes later and here is a question about Anticosti.
I don’t know why Anticosti was not settled the way PEI was. Perhaps because it is more difficult to get to? Perhaps it lacks arable land? In either case, Anticosti has a population of around 200, but PEI has a population of about 180,000. PEI seems to have had an identity as its own colony from early on, whereas Anticosti was only ever really a remote outpost, mostly important for its timber.
Politics. PEI has economic power and votes. Anticosti has rocks.
There are less than 300 people on the island of Anticosti.
Do people on Anticosti eat antipasto?
There might be antipathy toward antipasto on Anticosti
