Unless I am mistaken, that is an old legacy route. I don't think it is a ne=
w build. I know at one time Hibernia was selling its undersea link from Hal=
ifax to Boston as a back up for that route. On the other hand, there have b=
een some Canadian carrier builds recently so may be it's not legacy.
Regards,
Roderick
