Transport Canada orders the detention of a fishing boat operated by a British Columbia charter business after an associated vessel sinks off B.C., leaving one person dead and six others missing and presumed drowned, according to reports. The detention order, dated Thursday, is shown on the window of an approximately 11-metre vessel operated by Top Vancouver Fishing Charter in Richmond, near Vancouver. Transport Canada says it is detaining the boat because of alleged regulatory or safety violations, though the specific breaches are not detailed in the available excerpts. The move follows last month’s sinking of the charter operation’s other vessel, which resulted in the death and the disappearance of multiple people. Transport Canada’s detention authority is intended to prevent vessels from operating while concerns are addressed or compliance is verified. The charter operation is associated with both boats, and the detained vessel is separate from the one that sank. The reports describe the detention as an enforcement action tied to violations identified by Transport Canada.
