  1. More expensive perhaps, but I've been wondering if a tunnel might not be a better replacement. Construction could start as soon as the necessary engineering studies were completed, rather than waiting for debris clearance. No idea if it's even feasible.
  2. It may be that over time the number of violations has increased to a level Canada is not willing to tolerate.
  3. I don't think you are taking into account the sight line. Sitting in a vehicle 190+ feet above the water, several feet from the edge with an intervening curtain barrier, I suspect a person would see nothing less than several hundred feet from the bridge. With no lighting, a ship would be all but invisible.
  4. Since you provided no context in the OP is it any surprised that none of us understood your point ? Frankly it is insulting to be told that as a reader it's my fault for not understanding the intent behind the OP.
  5. US$1800 ~= CA$2440 at today's rate.
  6. Did you include GST in the CA$ total?
  7. https://boards.cruisecritic.com/forum/115-river-cruising/
  8. Foodstuffs, (being anything one can consume), can be tricky. See https://inspection.canada.ca/food-safety-for-consumers/bringing-food-into-canada-for-personal-use/eng/1389630031549/1389630282362 for guidance. Of course one has to conform first to US import rules.
  9. In Toronto at least the passport office has been rolled into the service Canada office in the same building.
  10. Probably, especially if the travel included countries that concern security agencies, (most of the world 🙂).
  11. Fried in butter they are delicious and go well with grilled pork etc. Cooked with a bit of sugar and lemon juice for a fantastic jam.
  12. The + is for multiple quotes. Tap / click on the + in each post you wish to quote. A count bubble will appear bottom right. Tap Quote in that bubble to start your reply.
  13. Since the voyage started in a Canadian port if would indeed be a violation of the act to transport passengers to another Canadian port. See https://tc.canada.ca/en/corporate-services/policies/coasting-trade-canada/coasting-trade-act-transportation-passengers-cruise-ships. That said, I doubt a Canadian could be denied landing. However there may well be fines and other penalties incurred by the cruise line. I believe passenger cruise contracts allow such charges to be passed through to the passenger.
  14. Bottom left of the post you want to reply to (A) tap Quote. If there are multiple posts you want to respond to, tap the + in each post.
  15. I find that skipping meals is counter productive. My best weight control is when I eat at regular times.
  16. According to Google maps it's about 47 mi. Presumably there are speed limits and traffic.
  17. It's a decent idea. But some body types may have issues with the trays. The trays come out of seat arms and may not extend enough to accommodate some.
  18. 🙂 Perhaps the concern is more to do with the possibility of using metal and rigid plastic fan blades as weapons. Visions of a slasher with his fan running through the passageways 😄.
  19. Depends on the phone. My phone and tablet have almost identical font sizes. I'd prefer something a bit larger, but it is readable. On Android in Chrome text size can be scaled using the menu (3 vertical dots, top right), Settings, Accessibility:
  20. Good thinking. Insurance tends to be a highly regulated business. Providers usually need to be properly registered in any jurisdiction in which coverage is provided.
  21. According to OP, booking is Seaward to Vancouver then Vancouver to Seaward.
