This Day In Clarkland: Nevermind The Bollocks...


...Here Comes Another Cable Ferry Breakdown.


From the MoCo:

Another breakdown for the controversial new B.C. cable ferry connecting two Gulf Islands to Vancouver Island has some calling for a contingency plan.

The Baynes Sound Connector was out of service for a few hours again last week, just as people tried to reach Denman and Hornby islands for the long weekend.

"Anything that might give people a bad impression or make it difficult for them to get there, it's really going to make them, I guess you could say, less likely to make the effort to take a holiday on Denman or Hornby," said Frank Frketich, chair of the Denman Island-Hornby Island Ferry Advisory Committee...



And what does BC Ferries have to say?

Well...

You know:

...BC Ferries says the Baynes Sound Connector has mostly performed well...



We await Scotty from Denman's follow-up exposition in the comments.

According to the management types I work for, mostly getting to work on time can see a sawmill worker looking for a new job when it happens repeatedly, as the case appears to be on the Joke Ferry to and fro Denman. Where's Donald Trump when you need him?

Did not hear any thing on the news about the Ferry,not surprising,While watching Global news Tuesday 7.50 am interview a former hedge fund American was speaking to Randine and commented on the consequences of real estate problem said the finance minster of B.C.was full of crap and we were being lied to by our Govt great interview.To night on Global at six it was less than a minute no mention of DeJong just a bull shit comment by Michael Levee,reminds me when him and Mikey Campbell, his brother was Premier at the time, they said we would not feel the recession a pair of idiots and there Money Matters you bet MIKEES.
