@lauratkacsik @BCFerries Wondering the same thing. No word from @BCFerries on what we can do if our ferry was cancelled today and (if you can even get on their site), there are no reservations available until after Christmas Day.

#ServiceNotice Weather conditions have improved on our #SwartzBay - #Tsawwassen route. Service will resume starting with the 6:00 pm departure from #SwartzBay and the 7:00 pm departure from #Tsawwassen. More: ow.ly/YyZU50XNuUo ^mm

@BCFerries @environmentca Still waiting to hear from someone about how I can go about rebooking my cancelled sailing? Website isn't working, even after waiting in queue. And there aren't any reservations left until days from now, so not sure what the point is of even trying to rebook people?

@environmentca If you have a booking on a cancelled sailing, our Customer Service Centre will contact you to advise whether you can be accommodated on a later sailing today or if your booking must be cancelled. If cancelled, fares and fees will be refunded. (2/5)

⚠️ #TravelAdvisory ⚠️ @EnvironmentCA gale warnings are in effect for the south coast. High winds and sea conditions have resulted in sailing cancellations across multiple routes. Service Notices 👉 ow.ly/bSWW50XNiWO Current Conditions 👉 ow.ly/s0TH50XNiXF (1/5) 🧵

@sherbertbc @BCFerries Same here. Reservation cancelled, no word from BC Ferries and no way to contact them or rebook. Very frustrating.

⚠️ #TravelAdvisory ⚠️ Our Customer Service Centre is experiencing high call volumes. Wait times may be longer than normal as phone lines reach capacity. We appreciate your patience as we work to assist as many customers as possible. Service Notices 👉 ow.ly/bSWW50XNiWO

Still trying to process this news, but for now, I just want to say: I am going to be a PLASTIC AND RECONSTRUCTIVE SURGEON. Thank you to everyone who supported me on this journey 🙏🏽 #plasticsurgery #MatchDay2023 #CaRMS @SchulichMedDent @UBCmedicine @UBCNMP_unbc

@mpotkins @EmmaMci @bengelinas @torontolife Hahaha, I love that I came across a tweet from @mpotkins as I fell down the rabbit hole of reactions to this story 😂

@EmmaMci @bengelinas @torontolife PLEASE EMMA DON'T DRAG CALGARY INTO THIS

I cannot handle this @torontolife piece. You moved 30 minutes south of Edmonton? This is like moving to Pickering and saying that living in Toronto is boring. Also, we have Cactus Clubs, if that's the terrible thing you're into?! I cannot handle this. #yeg torontolife.com/city/i-moved-t…

Melody Salehzadeh (@m_salehzadeh), a graduate student in @kiranksoma's lab, spearheaded a glove recycling program at the DMCBH when she saw how much plastic waste was being created during the pandemic.

@BCFerries I heard the ticketing system is down? Any updates? We are trying to get to the ticket booth in time for our 1 pm reservation at Swartz Bay but the lineup of cars hasn’t moved at all for 20+ minutes now.
