Algoma Harvester

Algoma Harvester (formerly known as Algoma Ship) is a female ship contestant from Battle for Canal Park Again, PCFB, and Battle for BFCP. She is the main protagonist of BFCPA 5b and a protagonist in BFCPA overall.

At the beginning of Battle for Canal Park, her name was Algoma Ship and she was one of the 30 recommended characters that had a chance to join Battle for Canal Park in Reveal Novum. However, she only received 8 votes (along with Algoma Buffalo) and was ineligible to join the competition. Later, when she had the chance to join BFCPA, she only earned 296 votes, which was not enough to participate at first. However, due to American Courage, Algoma Niagara, and Algoma Hansa being absent due to being dead, she made it in and later joined Walter J. McCarthy Jr.'s Alliance as an alternate but left because she thought the alliance was unhealthy for her and American Century.

Algoma Harvester currently competes in Battle for BFCP for Bleh.

Information
Algoma Harvester became the second of the new Equinox Class of Great Lakes freighters to join the Algoma Central Corporation fleet. It was built by Nantong Mingde Heavy Industries Stock Co. of Nantong City, China, and shares the similar 740 foot long by 78 foot wide dimensions and all of the efficient and environmentally friendly features of its sistership, Algoma Equinox.

This vessel, and its sister ships, operate with a 45 percent improved energy efficiency and can carry 20 percent more cargo. It also has a much lower fuel consumption with the benefit of a 97 percent removal of sulphur oxide emissions. Highly automated, the ship can operate with as few as 18 sailors.

Algoma Harvester was launched on December 25, 2013, and departed the overseas shipyard for Canada on May 18, 2014. It also loaded iron ore at Port Cartier while inbound for Hamilton and, after discharging at Arcelor Mittal (Dofasco), the ship was christened at Pier 26 South in Hamilton on July 14, 2014. The vessel then headed up bound through the Welland Canal and has joined the regular Seaway service in the Algoma fleet hauling iron ore from the Gulf of St. Lawrence ports and delivering grain to the elevators of that region for trans shipment overseas.

Personality
Algoma Harvester is seemingly nice and caring towards most contestants. She doesn't seem to like rule-breaking, as seen in "Get Digging". She is known to be arrogant occasionally, such as claiming that she will win Canal Park. Being called "well-read" irritates her and invokes anger.

There are various times where Algoma Harvester is passive and is not able to speak up either for herself or for others, making her a pushover. An example of this is seen in "No More Snow!" when she considered going back to get Cedarglen, Algoterra, and Rebecca Lynn, only for H. Lee White and Walter J. McCarthy Jr. to laugh at her.

The above example also shows that Algoma Harvester is considerate of others, as Cedarglen, Algoterra, and Rebecca Lynn are on a different team than her. Algoma Harvester would also tend to be the voice of reason with the FreeSmarters.

In BFB, Algoma Harvester becomes less of a pushover and finally stands up to H. Lee White and Walter J. McCarthy Jr., even to the point of leaving FreeSmart. She is also shown as being empathetic towards Edward L. Ryerson, stating that "everyone's lips slip occasionally" whenever she kept responding with the answer "eight" in "Questions Answered". However, in direct contrast to her behaviors towards Edward L. Ryerson, Algoma Harvester is still very upset with Baie Comeau and has not yet gotten over her "betrayal", showing her to be at least somewhat stubborn and able to hold grudges. After "Why Would You Do This on a Swingset", Algoma Harvester started to act as a bully towards Baie Comeau, and would try to convince the rest of Bleh that Baie Comeau was a deserter.

She also seems to have trouble controlling herself when angered, seen in BFB 12 when she accused Baie Comeau of abandoning the team again, and then proceeded to spaz out from pure anger.
