asking for the green light to overhaul the current paper ticket system, which is labour intensive and can be easily bogged down if there aren’t enough staff to collect the tickets.

I don't think I've seen a paper ticket - only receipts - since forever. What's he talking about?

Are we talking about foot passengers? If Air Canada can allocate a single bored (unpaid, as it turns out) F-A to check tickets, I think BCFC can do the same.

Hey, remember when the water trade routes were grouped-in with the overland trade routes and run by the same ministry instead of this for-profit mess? Good times.
