Goal: 10,000 signatures

Tell BC Ferries, David Eby, and Chrystia Freeland: No CCP contracts for our coastal fleet.

While Canadian workers are being laid off, our factories sit idle, and inflation continues to crush family budgets, BC Ferries is preparing to ship a billion-dollar taxpayer-funded shipbuilding contract to a Communist dictatorship.

That’s right. Four brand-new major vessels — funded by you and built for Canada — are set to be constructed in China by a state-owned shipyard tied to:

Slave labour

Money laundering in B.C.

Fentanyl flooding our streets

Election interference in Canada

And the Trudeau-backed Mark Carney Liberals? Silent. Chrystia Freeland is “concerned,” but the feds continue funneling $36 million in annual subsidies to BC Ferries while doing nothing to stop the sellout.

Meanwhile, B.C. Premier David Eby and his Transportation Minister Mike Farnworth are pretending their hands are tied — blaming “corporate independence” while your tax dollars fund foreign jobs and empower the Chinese Communist Party.

Let’s be clear: this isn’t just about ferries. It’s about Canadian sovereignty.
It’s about Canadian jobs.
It’s about standing up to tyrants instead of doing business with them.

We must stop this betrayal before it sets a dangerous precedent.

🔴 Sign our petition to tell the CEO and Board of BC Ferries, as well as provincial and federal transport ministers: Cancel the China deal and build these ships in Canada!

Will you sign?

    I cannot believe that the BC Ferries acquisition committee has the expertise to make this serious purchasing decision and consider all aspects, including national security and the political implications. A deal with the USA would have been better than China – although not as good as keeping the work in Canada. What a disaster! The two fast ferries that never went into service was a similar cock-up, and I will bet that no end users, such as the Chief Engineers, were properly consulted for input. This deal needs extreme scrutiny, especially to ensure that all the items specified in the marine architect’s take off sheets will be readily available in standard North American specifications and not European specifications (like the two disastrous fast ferries) so that the vessels can be maintained with components made in Canada. Because someone was silly enough to have the two fast ferries built with aluminum hulls that are unsuitable for sailing in log-ridden BC waters, I absolutely cannot trust this China decision either.

    A good ChiCom is a dead ChiCom. Jinping Xi is a murderer of his kind, but he has also introduced many viruses, including COVID-19 and its variants. We Canadians can’t continue to do business with China. We need to be business-independent and country-sovereign. What is the interprovincial economy?

    Canada should have as little as possible to do with Communist China. I suspect that certain individuals in the gov are getting kickbacks.

    The faults that could be built into these ships are tremendous. Would you fly in a plane built for us by a “not so friendly trader”. There are other friendly governments to deal with when our Seaspan and other shipbuilders are fully occupied.
