Disapointment in this federal and provincial government is reaching surreal sickening stage. Canada needs to wake up and wake up now! No pipelines.

According Allan Hughes, who is the spokesperson for the Canadian Auto Workers Local 2182 "My understanding is the vessel went to proceed into Active Pass, and got into a narrow area with a lot of current, and there was an opposing ferry and it had to alter course dramatically to get out of the way of the ferry," he said.


Western Canada Marine Response Corporation, which operates the vessel, confirmed the ship ran aground on an uncharted sandbar near Steveston, but denied it had to drastically change course to avoid a collision with a ferry near Active Pass."

Ummmmmmm....... Avoid a ferry in Active pass and as a result, run aground on a sandbar at sand heads????????? That is one helluva accident avoidance manuever!! Some of these spokespeople would appear much more intelligent if the just did not speak at all.
