Shouldn't BC residents get priority on the ferry? - eviltoast

Why are BC residents at the mercy of tourism when we literally use the ferries to live? Ferries are completely unusable in the summer that I just plan my life so that I don’t need to go the mainland and I think that’s unfair. You know, considering we pay taxes for this shit.

Edit: Just want to express my distaste for the lemmy community yet again. I posted this as a “change my view” sort of thing and you all just downvote it into disappearance. There are very good comments in this thread that real people put effort into. If you disagree, simply don’t vote at all. I didn’t break any rules. This behaviour is what prevents this platform from growing.

    Some? If your ferry is like any other, it’s a money maker for the community. If you can schedule trips to get precedence over tourists, you have a much better system than most. Feels a bit like complaining about immigrants taking jobs but its tourists taking a ferry, sorry.
