THE QUEEN OF THE NORTH/CORSI CONNECTION


Last week, BC Ferries suffered another blow to their already damaged image when their boat, THE QUEEN OF THE NORTH, sailed off course, hit a rock and sank to the bottom of Wright Sound in Northern BC. While investigations continue, I thought I would share a tidbit of info.

Michelle used to work on The Queen of the North, that's right, Mrs. Corsi herself. For two summers, Michelle used to give speeches about the wildlife, the environment and northern BC to boatloads of tourists who traveled on The Queen. Watching the news footage of last week's disaster was odd as she saw old work mates being interviewed and it brought those memories back. That and a 6:00am wake up call from Victoria stating "your boat sank"!

Will we ever know what really happened to the Queen of the North? Who knows but at least Michelle got to see her before she went 400 meters down to the bottom of the cold waters of BC.
