We will be visiting a small island near Vancouver BC this summer and I had heard once that if an island was small (no main roads etc) one did not need an eruv. Is this true? Do you know what are the qualifications for deciding whether or not one needs an eruv to carry on Shabbat on certain islands? thank you in advance for your answer. Sincerely, Aimee Promislow
