Northern Ferry Services

WHEREAS all communities represented by the North Central Municipal Association are reliant upon, or affected by, transportation provided by the northern ferry service and this service has been severely impacted by the sinking of the Queen of the North; AND WHEREAS northern tourism, economic development, the environment and many isolated communities have been devastated by this tragedy: THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED that the UBCM strongly encourage the Government of British Columbia and BC Ferries to work in close partnership with impacted communities to immediately resume quality passenger service at its previous level.
