Members of the BC Conservation Officer Service will be posted to the Prince Rupert BC Ferry terminal there to enforce the non-residential travel ban to Haida Gwaii |
Members of the British Columbia Conservation Service will be manning the checkpoints at the Fairview Terminal for BC Ferries, with the officers on hand to ensure that no non-resident, non-essential travel is made to Haida Gwaii.

As we noted on Thursday, the province working with Northern Health, First Nations Health, the council of Haida Nation and local governments on the Islands chose to put the ban on travel in place.
"The decision to restrict non-resident travel to Haida Gwaii has been made in a government-to-government collaboration with Council of the Haida Nation, Skidegate Band Council, Old Massett Village Council and local governments, in consultation with the provincial health officer.
The Province will deploy staff to support communities on the mainland and on Haida Gwaii to implement the travel restriction."
BC Ferries highlighted the new measures this morning through their Social Media portals.
Full details on how BC Ferries is approaching the issue of travel to and from Haida Gwaii can be explored further here.
