Default CANADIAN Charts

Is there a source - free - to download Canadian Charts of eastern
Vancouver Island?


I haven't found any free charts of BC waters. The Canadian Hydrographic
Service has apparently given Nautical Data International the exclusive
right to distribute electronic charts of Canadian waters. NDI charges
$150 to $300 US for a CD with a raster chart set. AFAIK there are also
no free vector charts available for BC. There is no equivalent to
the NOAA chartmaker site where you can download free ENC charts.
