The FAC survey to gauge public opinion on the three alternative schedule options suggested by BC Ferries has now closed, with a total of 590 responses from Gabriolans.

FAC member Dyan Dunsmoor-Farley, who launched the survey on October 13, said “I believe is a decent sample (15% of the total population or 29% of total occupied households).  In surveys of this magnitude, that is considered to be a very robust response”.  

Analysis of the responses to the questionnaire and the many hundreds of comments submitted is now under way and the FAC aims to produce its initial response within the next two weeks.  Meanwhile, we’d like to extend a huge thanks to everyone who participated.
