We wish to tlumk our workers, the

Shipyard GeneraI Workers Federation and the many Members of the BC

Legislative Assembly (MLA's) and

Members of Parliament (MP's) for their efforts in presenting the industry's case to the public of British Columbia and to

BC Ferry Services Inc.

We certainly wish BC Ferries success in their current endeavor; the conse- quences of failure would certainly have cm adverse impact on the transportation system that British Columbian citizens have become accustomed to. We stand ready to play a role in the future success of BC Ferries and the success of this

Province as a whole.

The first new Super C-class vessel is scheduled to leave Flensburger Shipyard in October 2007, the second in January 2008 and the third in May 2008.
