Earlier this year, the federal agency reportedly told the city the three aging ferries were considered "new" as a result of the upgrades and ordered them to comply with current international marine safety standards.
Although the new passenger limits kicked in this spring, the trouble with Toronto's aging ferry fleet began in 2008 when Transport Canada ordered the city to upgrade three boats — the William Inglis and Sam McBride, both built in the 1930s, and the Thomas Rennie, built in 1951. ... But what Transport Canada failed to tell parks staff, he said, was that the upgrades could cause the boats to lose their grandfathered status, which exempts the aging vessels from current marine safety standards.
After spending $5 million for ferry upgrades that had unintended negative consequences, Toronto's cash-strapped parks department is now planning to put aside money to replace the aging fleet altogether.
