BC Ferries eligible for government relief funds

8/12/2020

0 Comments

 
The Chamber welcomes news that BC Ferries will receive emergency funding from the provincial and federal governments.

BC Ferries provides an essential link to Greater Victoria and The Chamber supports efforts to ensure the service continues without having to drastically increase fares.

The money will come from the Safe Restart Agreement, announced July 16 as part of a cost sharing plan that will also help transit systems.

"We look forward to working with the Province to learn details of the Safe Restart Agreement," BC Ferries President and CEO Mark Collins said in a news release.
