'We just want to go home': More than 300 Canadian crew members still stranded at sea aboard cruise ships

Crew member on ship off Miami hopeful Canada will help him return home amid coronavirus pandemic.

After spending more than a month stranded on a cruise ship at sea, Will Lees of North Vancouver finally made it to Miami last week. But the cruise ship art director still doesn't know when he'll get home.

Lees said he and about 2,300 shipmates don't have permission to disembark, so they remain trapped aboard the Norwegian Cruise Line ship, Norwegian Epic, in the Port of Miami.

"We just feel so helpless," said Lees, who has spent the past week in a windowless cruise cabin on the idle ship.
