A meeting in Stockholm, Sweden a few days ago may go a long way in re-establishing ferry service between Yarmouth and Maine. The head of the Nova Scotia Ferry Partnership and an official of the province's economic development department met with officials interested in exploring the possibility of re-establishing the link. Yarmouth Mayor Phil Mooney says the meeting was a forerunner of what may come in the not too distant future.
The mayor is hoping a new ferry can be in operation by next year. Meanwhile, the special committee set up by the premier to examine the best economically- feasible ferry service for the area will be in Yarmouth next week, gathering information for its study.
