You do realize that there's more reason to not building bridge to connect Vancouver island than locals bitching about it?
The seafloor between island and lower mainland isn't suitable for building bridge on top of it and neither is building such a long suspension bridge over earthquake zone.

Like the fucking idiots who live on Hornby and Denman island:

"No you can't build a bridge, that will kill the quaintness of our community"

And then in the same breath: "No the ferry has to run a dozen times a day, regardless of how empty it is, so that I can get back to real life quickly whenever the need arises".

And thus BC ferries hemorrhages money like they are Greek or some shit.
