BC Ferries announced planned vessel changes
infrastructure · 2022–2026 · Routes 21 and 22 between Denman, Hornby and Buckley Bay
A 2022 newsletter report said BC Ferries had agreed to planned changes including operating the Quinitsa on Route 22 in summer 2023, moving the Kahloke to Route 21, expanding the Baynes Sound Connector to at least 70 cars, converting it to electric power and placing a new Island Class ferry on Route 22 in 2026.
This is the archive, not the newspaper. Between 2018 and 2026 this site compiled these items automatically from public community sources — chiefly The Islands Grapevine, regional news feeds and community groups. They were not written by a reporter and were not held to the standards this publication now applies. The archive is kept because it is a useful dated record of what happened on Denman, and it is labelled because pretending otherwise would be the first thing we would tell you not to trust. Current reporting is at The Denman Firestarter.
