That’s each way
It's sure nice, there but the lack of sunshine must be depressing, sometimes.
One thing about getting off the boat, it reminded me of Ottawa.. the houses, just the layout of the land.. clean, upper middle class.
First of all Vancouver/Swartz Bay is over 50 km. Secondly the mean depth of the strait is over 500 feet - it actually gets down to 1,400 in spots. If you fall in that water in the middle of summer you will die of hypothermia.Yeah I was wondering why they can build a bridge to PEI and not Vancouver Island..
Then again look at their Highway #1 Trans Canada.. what a joke
BC infrastructure is almost 3rd world in places.. sorta like the rest of the world doesn’t exists outside the Lower Mainland

of course you do. How long does it take you to get over to Victoria from Vancouver?
