Jeremy Allen has been stranded on Highway 99 before. He estimates it has happened three or four 
times over the years, sometimes for so long he ended up sleeping in his car on the shoulder, waiting 
for the road to open. But when a fatal motorcycle crash near Deeks Creek Bridge shut the highway 
down in both directions on the evening of July 5, leaving himself stranded in Vancouver, he had an 
idea.
Allen owns Squamish Water Taxi, a small commercial marine operator on Howe Sound. Within about 
fifteen minutes of putting out a message offering to help, his phone started ringing. Ten calls came in. 
Fifteen minutes after that, it was forty, plus dozens of text messages, from people trying to get home 
to Bowen Island, get to work, or healthcare workers trying to get to work.

Discover how Brennan Park Recreation Centre has been transformed with 
new accessibility features, energy-efficient upgrades, and modern 
amenities. Read more at
