Islanders love to blame sa国际传媒 Ferries for pretty much every ill. On the Prairies, it was 鈥淕od damn the CPR,鈥 and here on the coast, ferries are our favourite whipping boy.
But I was down on the ferry deck not long ago looking at a sa国际传媒 Ferries van full of water bottles. Apparently, it was destined for Saturna Island, where we have had water-plant issues and been boiling water for weeks. It鈥檚 a Christmas gift from sa国际传媒 Ferries, which heard from the Capital Regional District that islanders were at their wit鈥檚 end.
So give credit where credit is due. It was a class gesture, if you ask me. We might have to wait until the new year to start whipping again.
