The City of Victoria and the Greater Victoria Harbour Authority are pitching B.C.'s capital city as a home port for smaller cruise ships.
While cruise ships already make regular stops in Victoria, if the city were to become a home port, it would become the port where those cruises begin and end.
Mayor Lisa Helps says that could bring along with it spending from passengers on hotels, restaurants and more, and bring the local economic benefit of cruises from $40,000 per ship to up to $2 million per ship.
