    Mr Jimenez’ problems with BCFerries stems from a few simple ‘P3’ issues:

    • piss-poor preparation
    • piss-poor planning
    • piss-poor purchasing
    • piss-poor upkeep
    • piss-poor policies
    • piss-poor procedures
    • piss-poor postings for staff
    • piss-poor purveyance

    But, while we ponder on how a succession of ephemeral CEOs have fully wrecked anything like service from the BCFerries ‘Cruise Line’ Operation LTD LLC whatever, think of the bright side:

    • efficiencies have been realized, if the boats would just stop breaking down from being shitty boats shittily maintained and completely inappropriate for our weather
    • this fucking garbage fire of a typically-abyssmal public-private-partnership (p3) is not much worse than every other P3 as it’s a shitty idea by people who either can’t do math or put out to fool constituents who can’t do math, and so it’s not performing much worse than the rock bottom fully-enshittified norm that is the P3 scam.
    • it can only get better – ideally by showing why the maritime facet of Transpo should go back to where it came from so we can at least vote on a minimum of service levels and get agreements and objectives from it. You know, like an essential government service run by minimally-clued people, at least, for voting adults.
    • finally, it reminds us how shitty Gordon Campbell was when he was sober.
