ferry to canada

Hi,
I have seen some maps with a ferry route marked from both
Port Angeles and Port Townsend in Washington State U.S.A.,
to Victoria in British Columbia, Canada but can't find any
additional information.
My questions are; do vehicular ferries operate on these
routes?, how often?, what is the cost for car and
passenger? and what is the address and phone number of the
company that operates them.
Thanks.

   Some carry vehicles and some do not. They are rather
   infrequent, just a couple of sialings a day. I have the
   schedules and info in the Getting Around section of my
   website at http://www.vancouver.hm

   My information is not up to date but here goes; The name of
   the ferry runs between Victoria and Port Angeles is the
   M.V. COHO and it is run by the Black Ball Ferry company
   based in Port Angeles. There are a few sailings a day and
   cars and RVs and foot passengers regularly make the 1.5-2hr
   crossing. I am sure that if you were to go to some of the
   torism pages on Victoria BC, you'd find a current schedule.
   There are more sailings during the peak spring and summer
   seasons.
   There are also ferries connecting Anacortes island in
   Washington state to Sidney-just north of Victoria and this
   is also seasonal. Sorry that this info is only partial and
   may not be up to date. Surely some others will help you out
   here.
   Have a good trip.

   This is a good site that has links to the different Ferries
   that service Victoria. Go there and on the bottom there is
   a menu; select "How to get here" from that menu and then
   scroll down for the links.

   My sister takes the Port Angeles ferry quite often when
   coming up from Oregon. Just wanted to add that if you're
   planning on taking the Coho in the summer or on a weekend,
   get in the line early! Some people leave their car
   overnight in line to ensure that they make the 10 o'clock
   sailing. The staff usually will be able to tell you how
   busy it is if you call.
