One provider. The same maintenance service. An extra island charge.

A $390 service becomes $770 with a sole-property island visit.

$390Base maintenance

$380Island travel

$770Before GST and extra work

Compass Electric’s published terms add $380 for a visit to only one property on Salt Spring, Pender, Galiano, Saturna or Mayne. That adds 97.4% to its $390 routine annual maintenance price for air-cooled standby generators up to 26 kW. Shared appointments may split the travel charge.

Undated terms observed 1 November 2026; a listed service offer, not a completed invoice or an island-wide average. “Pender” is the supplier’s combined label. This offer does not name Lasqueti. See its local records below. Read Compass Electric’s terms.

Vancouver uses the broader Lower Mainland–Southwest economic region, not city or CMA data. Vancouver Island and Coast includes mainland coastal territory. These are regional benchmarks, not measured pay on individual Gulf Islands. Lasqueti belongs to the Vancouver Island and Coast comparison region.

Job Bank snapshot: 19 November 2025. Reference periods and sources appear with each value. BC’s general minimum wage is $18.25/hour from 1 June 2026; historical estimates below that floor have been kept with their original dates.

“Not published” means missing, never zero. A mean is not substituted for a median. Annual estimates stay annual. Some Census-based estimates include net self-employment income; physician estimates use clinical payments less estimated overhead. Regional differences run in both directions and do not establish a general Gulf-Island wage premium.

Let the people who do the work live here.

Ferry time, travel charges and overnight stays are real costs. Homes that working households can afford and room for local businesses belong at the centre of island planning. We advocate more homes and a stronger year-round local workforce.

The price records document specific costs. They do not isolate how much of any bill is caused by Islands Trust policy.

Official Job Bank wage CSV, 19 November 2025 · Job Bank wage search and methodology

The catalogue contains 516 occupation groups × four geographies. Underlying estimates use different sources and periods, including 2021 Census, 2023–2024 Labour Force Survey and 2024 small-area estimation. Differences are descriptive, not adjusted for experience, job mix or hours. We calculate (regional pay ÷ reference pay − 1) × 100 only where units and periods match. The 23 cost rows include calculations from the same suppliers; they are not 23 independent quotes.

Research compiled for Tony Aly’s private Abolish Islands Trust and town-site network. Source snapshots, hashes, extraction scripts and verification receipts are retained in the project research archive.
