Canada's westernmost province of BC (which I call home) has an abundance of places to get the wheels spinning while taking in stellar scenery and... Continue Reading →

The climate of this area is prime for growing some of the tastiest fruit and delectable BC wines. I myself have been to Kelowna, Penticton, and the Naramata... Continue Reading →

My work rarely takes me away on business yet this week was an exception. I decided to attend a one-day course in Victoria, BC - the capital city of the province of British Columbia.

Pod of Porpoises in Squamish, BC, Canada
Take a moment to watch this video that my friends recorded from their boat in the Mamquam Blind Channel, in Squamish, BC, Canada (an hour north of Vancouver).
