The Ongiara is a Toronto Island ferry operated by the Parks, Forestry and Recreation Division of the City of Toronto. The ferry serves the Toronto Islands from a dock at Jack Layton Ferry Terminal in downtown Toronto, Ontario, Canada. HistoryThe only car ferry operated by the city (all others are owned by Ports Toronto) was built in Owen Sound, Ontario by Russel Brothers[1] and commissioned in 1963 and carries both passengers (220) and vehicles (10 cars or 8 trucks). The latter is for city owned vehicles that need to access the island.[2] Her namesake is believed to be from the Mohawk word Ongiara, for point of land cut into two.[2] OperationsThe car ferry operates from the mainland ferry terminal over to Hanlan's Point and Wards Island terminals. The ferry can operate year-round as long as the inner harbour is ice free. The only time the ferry did not carry passengers was during the 2010 G20 summit.[3] SpecificationsDetails from Transport Canada[4]
