Media Release - September 26, 2024


September 24, 2024


Please be advised that the BC General Employees Union has issued WaterBridge Ferries a 72-hour strike notice today, September 24, 2024, impacting routes on the Upper Arrow Lakes and Adams Lake.  This is only a notice, and it does not necessarily meant that a strike will occur.


We understand that any interruption to the ferry schedules will have a huge impact on the communities who rely on us to connect them with friends, family, and vital services.  We will continue to be open to fair and reasonable negotiations with the BCGEU and are hopeful a resolution is obtained quickly.


WaterBridge Ferries will be taking measure of seeking Essential Services designation from the Labour Board of British Columbia in an effort to ensure our sailings continue.
