Sunday, February 14, 2016 at 2:04PM Great news to share. After much waiting and processing in Lebanon, the Kaiyali Family arrived in Montreal on Saturday, February 13th. They will have a few days in Montreal for processing and adjustment, then fly on Tuesday, the 16th to Victoria, where they will stay a few days with family before travelling to Duncan on Thursday, the 18th. Their next adventure starts as they begin to settle in the Cowichan Valley.
Thank you so very much to all the people who donated funds, skill, and energy to make this happen. I will keep you posted on how things are going and ways to be involved. Thank you again for your generosity,
Michelle Black, for the Thetis Island Refugee Group

BC Ferries announces 30% savings on regular passenger fares.
Choose from over 1,500 select sailings on all routes from March 10 - 29
VICTORIA – BC Ferries announced today that a fleetwide pricing promotion of 30 per cent off regular passenger fares will be in effect from March 10 – 29. Passengers travelling on select sailings will receive the discount off the regular passenger fare. The promotional discount is applicable on adult, child, BC Senior, student and persons with disabilities regular passenger fares. On South Coast Routes, the 30 per cent discount will be in effect Monday through Thursday and Saturdays on select sailings from March 10 - 29.
On North Coast Routes including Port Hardy – Prince Rupert, Prince Rupert – Haida Gwaii and Alliford Bay – Skidegate routes as well as the Discovery Coast connector, the 30 per cent discount will apply on every sailing from March 10 - 29. “We’re pleased to offer this discount for families to take advantage of as they plan their spring break getaways,” said Janet Carson, BC Ferries’ Vice President of Marketing and Travel Services. “At the same time, it allows us to gather information about how customers respond to variable pricing options as we prepare strategies for the launch of our Fare Flexibility and Digital Experience Initiative next year.” Experience™ Card users who receive a year-round discount that is less than 30 per cent will have their discount increased to match the promotional fare. Experience™ Card users who receive a year-round discount that is in excess of 30 per cent will remain at their current discount level. This promotion allows those customers who do not participate in the Experience™ Card program an opportunity to travel at a discounted rate. Space on the select promotional sailings is on a first-come, first-serve basis. Reservations are recommended to ensure a spot on the sailing of choice. For more details about the 30 per cent passenger promotion, visit bcferries.com.
This off-peak pricing promotion will not apply on Thursday, March 24 and Easter Monday, March 28 as these are already traditionally busy days for ferry travel. Under contract to the Province of British Columbia, BC Ferries is the service provider responsible for the delivery of safe, efficient and dependable ferry service along coastal British Columbia.
