Every day, we’re on our waterways ensuring the safety of mariners and keeping our waters safe, including on Canada Day in Victoria, #BritishColumbia. From on-scene responses to behind-the-scenes prevention, our work starts long before danger appears. 💪🌊

Nothing beats the buddy system. Having a companion onboard doesn't just make your outing more fun, it can also give you a helping hand if things go wrong. So, grab a mate and let's ride those waves together! 🌊

Progress continues in the response to the MSC Baltic III. As of now, about 85% of the heavy fuel and 208 of the 472 containers on board have been removed from the ship. Fuel removal remains the top priority, with efforts shifting to oil in the engine room and smaller tanks.
