Big news if you use the Horseshoe Bay ferry regularly. Starting today you *must* reserve if you are going *from* Horseshoe Bay *to* Departure Bay. Only that route, only that direction. Departure Bay to Horseshoe Bay is unaffected.
This is due to major construction at HS Bay terminal.

Let's end fossil fuel development in BC!
I want green: tidal, wind, solar, geothermal. If only the #BCpremier's office would stop their 24 years of preventing #bchydro from doing it? @emilylowan

I have no doubt that the Federal Gov't in Canada KNEW of #BCFerries' intention of buying ferries built in China. Right out of Politics 101; they failed to get on it when they had the chance and spouted outrage well after the fact.
I can't stomach the hypocrisy at that level: criticizing money-strapped BC Ferries for dealing with THE EXACT SAME SHIPYARD that had received federal contracts for Marine Atlantic. It boggles the mind.

Something #BCFerries, #Translink, and #BCTransit could learn from #Hullo: displays with scheduled transport connections *in the vehicles*
"a passenger went into the water to retrieve an article of clothing that they'd lost"
Seriously WTF is wrong with people!!??🤦
I really hope BCF send them a bill for the rescue.

It's almost an official sport in British Columbia; kicking around #BCFerries. I live in a community (Sunshine Coast) dependent on the BC Ferries and I reject that criticism. The crews are unfailingly professional, efficient, and pleasant. I'm not surprised they did this rescue as fast as they did. It's a complex, expensive system, the BC Ferries, but most shots at them are unwarranted.

We just spent 5 days in the greater #Victoria area on #VancouverIsland #BritishColumbia and every bit of it was stunning. #BCferries is such a great service and amazing way to travel. There are so many #waterfalls and stunning #nature everywhere. The drive on the #YellowheadHighway was easy and gorgeous. #Canada is amazing, we are spoiled living in this country. #TravelCanada it is so worth it. Cannot wait to head #east and see the #maritimes.
Rustad calls for BC Ferries to scrap Chinese vessel contract
No Canadian shipyards bid on the project, and the ferry company says the Chinese bid came in at about $1.2 billion cheaper than European competitors.
