Are The Natives Getting Restless?

Hmmm.....

Could be wrong, but can't remember this happening when we still owned, and ran, the ferries that we, the people of British Columbia, built:

Victoria -- About 100 demonstrators staged a protest at the legislature yesterday over the rising costs on B.C. ferries that serve smaller communities along the coast.

Jim Abram, a director with the Regional District of Comox-Strathcona, says fares have risen by 38 per cent in three years, with 17 per cent of that in the past five months.

Mr, Abrahm says ferry users feel there is no accountability to the people of the province from B.C. Ferry Services, which he calls Premier Gordon Campbell's failed experiment. CP

Oh, for the halcyon days when CP Rail and Blackball ferried us across the mercy whenever they darn well pleased.
