Turning to the port authority, we heard some concerns. In fact, the B.C. Ferry and Marine Workers' Union and BC Ferries both rang the alarm on the unmanageable hazards of abandoned vessels in their operations. They wrote a joint letter endorsing my legislation, saying that a major ferry on a scheduled night-sailing between Departure Bay and Horseshoe Bay struck a semi-submerged abandoned vessel. This caused the ferry to stop and investigate. It deployed a rescue boat and crew. They cited risks to their employees and disruption to the schedule of the ferry service. This is a major, huge passenger ferry. From the Vancouver Fraser Port Authority's perspective, have you also found disruption to your operations and to the economy from abandoned vessels like this?
