Some residents of Change Islands were left feeling confused at a recent change to their ferry schedule.

The Kamutik W is in service among Change Islands, Fogo and Farewell, while their usual vessel - the Veteran - is having a refit. The recently updated schedule sees a reduction in the number of crossings to Change Islands.

The fewer trips are only believed to be a temporary measure, but the residents say it's much more than a simple inconvenience. Dennis Flood is a councillor for the community of Change Islands and the chair for their transportation committee.
