Talk:Yellowknife Highway

Ferry
are you sure it was a ferry? The only thing I can find prior to the road opening was that goods were shipped to Yellowknife. See this, page 15. CambridgeBayWeather, Uqaqtuq (talk), Sunasuttuq 18:28, 21 November 2019 (UTC)


 * The words I remember reading - this was a school textbook - were a "powerful ferry", probably one with sufficient horsepower to haul the distance and withstand some degree of adverse weather. This would have been a very long trip, akin to the Cabot Strait crossing.  It seemed to me that once the newer highway was built, the ferry would be relocated to that relatively short route.  The North had and still has several examples of sea-lift operations to take goods into remote communities. GBC (talk) 21:44, 22 November 2019 (UTC)
 * All communities on the Arctic coast from the Yukon to the far east of Nunavut still rely on the annual sea lift. That's how I got my truck. It's how we get our fuel and gasoline. CambridgeBayWeather, Uqaqtuq (talk), Sunasuttuq 22:25, 22 November 2019 (UTC)
