Deadline Today For Yarmouth Ferry Proposals


Today is the deadline to submit business plans for a proposed revival of the ferry service between Yarmouth and Maine. The provincial government will make the results known tomorrow. The minister of economic and rural development and tourism, Graham Steele, will outline the submitted proposals and where things go from here. The government previously extended the deadline for business plans by two weeks. The government rejected two bids earlier this year, saying neither met the criteria for a viable operation.
