Thumbs up Hi to all from Vancouver Island.

I have been an independent trucker operating on Vancouver Island for over 25 years now. All that time we have hauled only seafood, fresh and processed. It will be interesting to now get the views of operators elsewhere in the world. Keep the shiny side up.



Cheers Papa Bear

Are there still lots of ex-Brit double decker buses on the sightseeing tours in Victoria?

Uno Hoo (not been back to BC since 1990).

Thumbs up Victoria double deckers.

Hi there Uno Hoo. Victoria B.C. is still a city with a British ambiance. I think that's the best way to put it. It is also very proud of it. The double deckers used on many of the tourist runs are still there but also the City of Victoria transit system also uses double deckers on many of their regular city routes. Hope this answers your query.


Cheers John L. (Papa Bear)
