President’s Message

008 was a year of highs and lows.
We began with our Board of
Directors Meeting which was extremely productive and well attended,
then we moved forward to the CMAC Meetings where once again we are
privy to a private session with the Director General and his staff.
This has now evolved into an annual event; it is becoming quite clear that
Transport Canada are consulting with us on the majority of Marine and
Transportation issues. We now hold a seat on the Canadian Accessible
Transportation Committee. Then we moved forward to our Annual
Conference in Quebec City, and to say it was an outstanding success would
be selling it short. WE owe a lot of thanks to the STQ crew for this. This
conference was clearly our biggest success to date. These were among a few
of our highs.
The lows were the loss of a great number of our Board of Directors due to
retirements and new job opportunities. These were John Lochhead, Trafford
Taylor, George Capacci, Edouard Rivard and Peter Buell. I am confident that
we have the right people in our group to replace them.
It has been a great pleasure for me to lead our organization again this year
and to work with Tony de Hoog who always makes things a lot easier. I am
looking forward to 2009 being as big a success as 2008 however; the
conference in Quebec will be a tough act to follow.

Executive Director’s Message
T
wo Thousand Eight was another milestone year for the Association.
Under the strong leadership of President Captain David Miller, we started the
year with a Board of Director’s meeting in Montreal and here he Board dealt
with a number of important issues.
During the year the Association met twice in Ottawa for the spring and Fall
Canadian Marine Advisory Council sessions and at these meetings we had the
opportunity to meet with the Director General Marine Safety and the Director
General Marine Security. We also had an opportunity to meet the Minister of
Transport Lawrence Cannon and his officials. Through this venue, the Association
has worked closely in developing the section of the Marine Transportation Security
Regulation dealing with Domestic Ferries
In order to increase the Association’s exposure, we participated in Portsecure 2008
where a Domestic Ferry Security Panel was held with several CFOA members. We
also were sponsors in the Marine Day Celebrations organized by Transport Canada
and held in Halifax in November 2008.
The 2008 Annual General Meeting and Conference held in Quebec City was a great
success. We had representatives from very major Classification Society, a large
number of marine suppliers and Transport Canada Regulators attending.
For 2009, we are again looking forward with anticipation to the many meetings
and events such as the AGM and Conference to be hosted by the Department of
Transportation of the Government of the Northwest Territories in Edmonton and
Transport Canada Marine Safety and Marine Security.

B
ritish Columbia Ferry Services Inc. (BC Ferries) is one of the
largest ferry operators in the world, providing year-round vehicle and
passenger service on 25 routes to 47 terminals, with a fleet of 36 vessels.
The company provides an essential transportation link that connects coastal
communities and facilitates the movement of people, goods and services
throughout British Columbia. In 2008/09, BC Ferries transported more than 20.7
million passengers and 8.1 million vehicles.
BC Ferries’ diverse service area includes connections between the Lower Mainland
and Vancouver Island; from Vancouver Island or the Mainland to many small
island communities; from Prince Rupert on the province's north coast to the
Queen Charlotte Islands and to Port Hardy; and the Discovery Coast Passage
operating summer only service between Port Hardy and Bella Coola. In addition
to ferry transportation, BC Ferries also has significant ancillary operations,
including food and beverage services, reservation services, retail gift shops,
vending machines and parking facilities.
Over the last three years, BC Ferries has spent $1.2 billion in total capital
expenditures, reflecting significant investments in infrastructure to revitalize the
company’s fleet and terminal facilities. Of this, $1.0 billion was spent on new
vessels, vessel upgrades and modifications.
2008 ANNUAL REPORT

This past year, two more Super C-class vessels were added to the BC Ferries
fleet: the Coastal Inspiration, which commenced service on the Duke Point–
Tsawwassen route in June 2008, and the Coastal Celebration, which entered
operation on the Swartz Bay–Tsawwassen route in November 2008. These
vessels are among the largest double-ended ferries in the world, with each vessel
measuring 160 metres in length and having a capacity of 1,650 passengers and
crew and approximately 370 vehicles. They feature a diesel-electric propulsion
system that is one of the largest and most economical of its kind in the world.
This propulsion system and other technological and environmental features of the
Super C-class vessels contributed to winning the prestigious ShipPax award for
outstanding ferry technology for 2008.
Two more new ships joined BC Ferries’ operations in 2009: the Island Sky,
which operates on the Earls Cove-Saltery Bay route and accommodates up to
125 vehicles and 600 passengers, and the new Northern Expedition, which
made its inaugural voyage on BC Ferries’ northern route through the Inside
Passage from Port Hardy to Prince Rupert in May 2009. The 150-metre Northern
Expedition, which offers 55 staterooms and accommodates up to 130 vehicles
and 600 passengers, provides a new cruise-like travel experience for those
passengers travelling to the north coast with BC Ferries.
In addition to welcoming new ships, this past year BC Ferries completed a
comprehensive $54 million upgrade on the Queen of New Westminster and
retired three older ships from service. Two of the retired ships, the Queen of
Esquimalt and Queen of Tsawwassen, have since been sold. In April 2009,
the Queen of Vancouver and the Queen of Prince Rupert were also retired
from service. These two ships, along with the Queen of Saanich, are currently for
sale.

provincial ferry system in Newfoundland and Labrador is an integral
link connecting many isolated communities along the provinces coastline to the
provincial and national transportation system. In many cases the ferry system
is a community’s only link to the provincial and national transportation system and, as
such, is the sole means of transporting people and goods into and out of their
respective community.
The Marine Transportation Services Branch is responsible for
the operation of 18 owned and/or contracted vessels serving 16 routes throughout the
province.
The services vary from annual small daily passenger/freight services to
seasonal and/or annual auto/passenger/freight services.
The Marine Transportation Services Branch of the Department of Transportation and
Works was initiated in 2007 and is now very close to having filled its full complement
of permanent full-time positions. Currently, there are sixteen (16) head office
positions located in Lewisporte, NL with an additional nine (9) located in St. John’s, NL
and one (1) in Goose Bay, Labrador.
In total, the Marine Transportation Services
Branch has a staffing complement of approximately 260 and an annual budget of
$100 million (accounting for approximately 760,000 passengers, 370,000 vehicles and
21,600 tonnes of freight moved) for the fiscal year 2008/2009.
Major initiatives carried out by the Marine Transportation Services Branch in the fiscal
year 2008/2009 include:
 Initiate the first phase of the Vessel Replacement Strategy by signing a contract to
build two medium sized ro-ro ferries in Marys town, NL at Kiewit Offshore Services a
division of Peter Kiewit Sons Company, each ferry will be forty-two (42) meters in
length and will carry eighty (80) passengers and sixteen (16) cars, or one (1)
transport truck and eleven (11) cars.
The conceptual design was completed by
Poseidon Marine Consultants Limited, St. John’s and was tested in ice and open water
2008 ANNUAL REPORT

by Oceanic Consulting Corporation at the Institute of Ocean Technology. The project
is valued at $50.5 million. The vessels are expected to be in service by the fall of
2010. A rendering of the vessel is attached.
 Vessel Integrity & Maintenance Management System (VIMMS) – An RFP was
called and the responses are currently being evaluated. An award is expected by the
fall of 2009 and a pilot project on one of the Bell Island ferries is expected before full
roll out to the entire vessel fleet. VIMMS is a parts inventory control database and
preventative maintenance program.
 During 2008/2009 the Branch tasked LPS global alliance to complete a Marine Project
Management Manual (MPMM) for the Marine Branch.
The manual has been
completed and has received executive approval. Early in the spring of 2009 training
seminars were held for Branch staff on the operation of the manual.
2008 ANNUAL REPORT
19
The MPMM has been developed to ensure the consistent application of a standardized
process and recognized project management best practices for performing the
definition, design and construction work on vessels being built, refitted or repaired.
 The final draft of the Safety Management Manual has received Executive approval
and is currently being rolled out to the fleet. The purpose of the Safety Management
System is to ensure the safe operation of our ferries, prevention of human injury or
loss of life, and avoidance of damage to the marine environment or to property. This
is a general instruction manual.
Vessel Specific Work Instruction manuals will be
developed and introduced during 2009/2010.
 Work has been progressing on the revision to the branch’s Marine Policy Manual. The
manual has been reviewed internally by the branch and should be ready to present to
the executive by late summer of 2009.
The Policy Manual is designed to provide
accurate and timely information on Departmental policies relating to the safe and
efficient operation of the ferry services.
 The Contracted Services presently provided to the department for five (5) south coast
routes and one (1) southern Labrador route will expire in 2010. Most of the vessels
currently servicing these routes are in excess of forty (40) years old. In an effort to
revitalize these services the Department has received approval to tender for these
services for a period of ten (10) years with an option to extend for an additional five
(5) years. The purpose of the long lead time and the long term contracts together with
the associated commitment of funds is required to seek newer vessels for these
services and allow prospective suppliers to amortize their investment over a ten (10)
year period. Maximum age of replacement vessels is 15 years. Tenders are expected
to close late July 2009 with award of tenders by the fall of 2009.
 The Branch has been working towards on online/phone ordering and distribution system
for Personal Protective Equipment and Uniforms.
Responses to the tender
process are currently being evaluated with the view of awarding a contract by
September 2009.
 In the fiscal year 2008/2009, the Marine Branch held its second annual Marine
Seminar which by all accounts was a great success.
Two seminars where held to
accommodate vessel staff on all shifts. To continue with this initiative a seminar is
planned for the fall of 2009 to be held in Marystown to take in a technical tour of the

Société des traversiers du Québec (STQ)
La Société des traversiers du Québec (STQ) is the leader in Québec for marine
passenger transportation services. Created in 1971 to take over from private ferry services
operating between Lévis and Québec City, STQ has expanded over the years to include
eight ferry services on the St. Lawrence Seaway and Saguenay River.
Five ferries provide service year-round and three others, which are operated in partnership,
are closed for the winter.
The following ferries provide service year-round:
Sorel-Tracy–St-Ignace-de-Loyola
Québec-Lévis
Isle-aux-Coudres–St-Joseph-de-la-Rive
Tadoussac–Baie-Ste-Catherine
Matane–Baie-Comeau–Godbout
The following ferries are operated in partnership:
Isle-aux-Grues–Montmagny (April to December)
Rivière-du-Loup–St-Siméon (April to January)
Île d’Entrée–Cap-aux-Meules (May to October)
A company whose shares are entirely in the public domain, STQ reports to the Québec
transport minister. Its headquarters are located near the port in Québec City.
STQ maintains a fleet of eleven ferries, all of which were built in Québec. Their capacity
varies from 350 to 700 passengers and 50 to 120 vehicles. These ships meet strict
maintenance standards and are International Safety Management (ISM) certified.
Preventative maintenance is a key factor allowing STQ to maintain its ships in excellent
condition. Early in 2009, STQ contracted for the construction of its 12th. ferry. This vessel
will operated between Entry Island and Cap-aux-Meules starting in the summer of 2009.
Five hundred employees work year-round to ensure that all 107,000 scheduled crossings
are carried out on time. The vast experience of our staff on land and at sea helps us achieve
remarkable results, including the high success rate (99.7%) of planned crossings. Our
staff’s expertise is often sought on a variety of projects regarding Québec’s port facilities. All
STQ passenger ships have been certified according to that standard by Lloyd’s of London.
STQ owns 19 docks, 15 waiting areas, and over 50 buildings—including 17 river stations—in
11 regions across Québec and regularly carries out major renovation projects on these
facilities in order to maintain or improve the quality of the service it provides.
STQ values the feedback of its passengers and conducts an annual survey to gage
passenger satisfaction and identify areas for improvement. Approximately 50% of our
2008 ANNUAL REPORT
passengers are regularly ferry users going to work, school, or leisure activities. The other
50% of our passengers use ferries occasionally and irregularly, mostly during the summer
and mainly to visit family or for tourism.
As an invaluable partner of the business and tourism sectors, STQ is recognized as a safe,
reliable, and high quality marine carrier. Every year, some 5.6 million passengers and 2.6
million vehicles board our ferries. STQ thereby fulfills its mission to ensure safe, reliable,
high quality marine transportation services that contribute to the sustainable development
of Québec.
In September 2008, STQ hosted the CFOA Annual General Meeting and Conference in
Quebec City. With more than 100 delegates, 23 informative presentations and varied social
activities, the event proved to be a great success and demonstrated STQ leadership within
the Association.
