The B.C. Ferries Connector is running Friday through to Monday, between downtown bus terminals in Victoria and Vancouver.
The Vancouver Island Connector is running between Victoria and Campbell River.
The Tofino Bus linking Victoria to Tofino and Ucluelet.
The company is also offering a BC Residents Rate, which gives locals a 25% discount.
