Bonus: B.C. Ferries

B.C. Ferries: If the B.C. Liberal government ever needed an opportunity to regain the support of the voting public, now would be the time to do the right thing and order these bonuses scrapped. , according to Times Colonist. So it seems that B.C. Ferries is drowning in red ink, ridership is down, fares are up, many of the older ferries need to be replaced but no money is available. I fail to see how anyone could accept a pay bonus knowing that the financial situation at their place of employment is in dire straits. I think the awarding of bonuses to already overpaid executives in the B.C. Ferry Corp. is almost criminal. I checked: A bonus is an increase in pay over the normal assigned salary amount and could be awarded for increased performance, an additional noticeable enhancement of the work/job process, etc. (www.immigrantscanada.com).
