So something I have wondered why is SE Alaska not under a VTS scheme like Canada? They have a very good system and should be implemented.

Same reason the VHFs don't work. Who's gonna pay?
The Canadians seem to have figured that out.
Alaska has no state tax according to Alexa, that is the problem.
I'd sooner see them mandate AIS than implement a VTS. The big boats already have it, but smaller boats up in SE Alaska typically don't.
