What happened

Some supportReported by 1 outlet

Premier David Eby announced a proposed pilot project for BC Ferries. If the BC NDP is re-elected, the project would set aside 12 percent of advance booking space for local residents on the Horseshoe Bay-Langdale and Powell River-Comox routes. Ten percent of this space would be held for locals until four days before departure, and two percent until 24 hours before sailing.
