Big cargo ship in our view

This is the story.
We have these ships (mostly Chinese) parking around our shores here waiting for Canadian products. We have a group of people fighting the Canadian government for years to do something about it as they wait here (free of charge) for weeks and sometime for months. The group (called "Shipwatch") is after the Vancouver port management not being capable better schedule the pick ups. Vancouver port does not have the best reputation in that regard. It was discussed in the parliament but nothing was done about it so far. Looks like the Canadian government has bigger priorities.
I feel sorry for the people who paid lots of money for ocean front property and they are looking at monsters like this. Their compressors are very noisy too, even we can hear them on the hill and these are not good for our overall sea life environment either. There are about 6 of them constantly just in our neighbourhood. We (personally) are lucky that they do not park in place that we can see them very often.
I zoomed in so I could see the ship crew on the deck (barely) for its size comparison.
