Ferries Cancelled

All we’v told you about tough trip home for thousands people, hundreds of thousands people in Toronto yesterday. A construction accident shut down part of Toronto’s busy subway line right the hard afternoon rush hour. But ove on the west coast, things not a lot better. Sussan Silver has more.


Those were hoping to catch a ferry were going no where fast. “My poor little daughter just came hone for from England and we stuck.” “Nothing you can do and I think. I heard that some of the ,there’s like no hotels, everything’s booked in Tsawwassen and” By 6:30, heavy winds pumoured the terminal and BC ferry is decided to cancel all sailings for the rest of the night in Tsawwassen and the horseshoe bay. And the numbers of ferry cross the provinces. And that is the storm aponded the south coast. Things just got uglier. BC hydro scrambled to keep up and its peak nearly 20,000 customers left in the dark. Many of them thinks to falling trees. And all this rain is falling a snow at higher elevations including in the mountain passes, the cocoholo is expected to get up 25 centimeters of snow. And the sea to sky is black and white. Good news for whistler, the mountain has already received over three and half meters of snow, more than double the average for the mouth. But down here, the drivers try to avoid the growing puddles, while the others has to find different route home. And as the night went on, the rain just kept on coming and so did the wind. But still not enough to keep everyone inside. “If you cancelled for rain, there won’t be so many soccer games” “Why did you still come out?” “Because we need to practice for a game.” “It’s wet and cold, the shoes is filled with water.”
