Granted I'm not working for the ferries right now, and never heard of this before. But really, passengers are allowed to bring guns onto the ferries, providing that they, A) leave them in their vehicles, or B) have them locked up in a carrying case, unloaded. Why would they bother now to do such things now? (of course my union often said that management likes to do such foolish things).
Security right now has been mainly left to the crew, usually the Deckhands, but sometimes even catering attendants like me had to do such things. Yes, it's not something a lot of my co-workers would have liked to have done.
Also the Swartz Bay to Tsawassen Ferries have a capacity of 1500 to 2000 passengers. I don't think they can search everyone and expect to load the ferries in time, because between docking and departing they got about 30 minutes to do that. You sure this isn't a joke?
