  • Gulf Island Life Is Great, but Not Paradise When BC Ferries Officials

    Gulf Island Life Is Great, but Not Paradise When BC Ferries Officials

    Gulf Island life is great, but not paradise When BC Ferries officials come to Saturna Island on Tuesday, they'll find getting there is an expensive, time-consuming adventure Read more: http://www.vancouversun.com/Gulf+Island+life+great+paradise/7632323/story.html#ixzz2DpJrkqbL Hi there, members of the BC Coastal Ferries Consultation and Engagement panel. I am sorry to miss your visit to Saturna Island on Tuesday, Dec. 4 to "gather input on elements of the government's vision of connecting coastal communities in an affordable and efficient manner" as the notice in our Island Tides newspaper states. I will be taking five ferries - one way - for Christmas visits to family on the Sunshine Coast and Texada Island, if winter storms don't cancel the sailings. It will take another five ferries to get home to Saturna. That's right, 10 ferries. Our families live on the coast, all 27,000 kilometres of it. Ferry routes are our marine highways. Recent Vancouver Sun stories portray Gulf Islanders as elitists who choose to live here in paradise and therefore should pay higher ferry costs while people on the mainland argue over who should pay for their bridges. It's a great life, but it is not paradise, and it is not for everybody. The Sun's recent stories on BC Ferries assume that if a reporter talks to a shopkeeper on Salt Spring (about 10,000 people) that covers off Pender (about 2000) or Mayne, Galiano or Texada (1100 or so each) or Saturna (305 and dropping). Not so. While the lifestyle varies on each island, I have prepared some cautionary notes on Saturna.
