Highlights From The Road to 150 British Columbia Episode:
Canada's westernmost province is packed with jaw-dropping scenery and incredible adventures. Home to some of Canada's most varied landscapes, ranging from desert and ocean to mountains and forest, there truly is something for everyone in British Columbia.
We explored the BC from Sept 6 - Sept 28, 2017.
Canada's Road to 150 is a 150-day Canada-wide multi-media road trip celebrating Canada's 150th birthday by exploring the uniqueness of this country provincially and collectively while answering the question; What makes Canada special?
We drove to and through every driveable province and territory, showcasing Canada's natural beauty and regional attractions while interviewing Canadians of all cultures and backgrounds, including local celebrities, immigrants, refugees, and everyday rural and urban Canadians. Our aim is to dig deep into what makes Canada such an incredibly inspiring country while showing off the best of Canada's tourism to Canadians and to the world.

Best Places To Live On Vancouver Island - Often called Paradise
- Best Places To Live On Vancouver Island.
I’ve lived on Vancouver Island for most of my life. In my opinion the best places to live on Vancouver Island can be narrowed down to a few communities.
The Comox Valley - half way up the island on the east coast. Recently voted one of the best places to retire. Offers endless outdoor activities between Mt Washington and the ocean. Skiing, golfing, boating and hiking. The International Airport makes travel a breeze. I grew up here. It's the best place in the world to be a kid.
Heading South on Vancouver Island…a few other best places to live on Vancouver Island are Parksville and Qualicum. Charming communities with long sandy beaches have become very popular retirement meccas for its mild climate.
Nanaimo, The Harbour City or Hub City for it’s central location. The ferry terminals take you either to North Vancouver or to the main Vancouver ferry terminals in Tsawwassen. A small international airport and from here you can easily drive to Long Beach and Tofino on the West Coast. Always something to see and do in the harbor.
Victoria, the largest city on the island. The most beautiful place on earth as described by most residents so most definitely agreed one of the best places to live on Vancouver Island. Often called Canada’s California as it is the most temperate spot on the Island and all of Canada. It’s a lovely city with diversified culture, history and lots of attractions. Victoria is the capital of British Columbia and home of the great University of Victoria making for a very stable economy.
And now for my favorite of the best places to live on Vancouver Island…Sidney. Just north of Victoria is the beautiful town of Sidney. A small seaside community on the end of the peninsula where the ferry lands from Vancouver. A gateway to all of the Gulf Islands. It is also home to the Victoria International Airport making travel a breeze. In my opinion and that of most who live here….the prettiest of them all.
There are far too many places to explore and things to see to be stuck indoors, which is why you see me out here enjoying the day in the middle of the week. Most of my friends are at work right now. I have the most amazing work – I love what I do and it allows me the time and flexibility to be here.

Explore Vancouver Island - Authentic Travel
Travel through Vancouver Island’s cultures, towns, and outdoors to find your authentic experience.
It’s here on Vancouver Island that you’ll find our histories, past and present, through the local cultural traditions of the Kwakwakawa’wak, Coast Salish, and Nuu-chah-nulth communities. Become immersed in the stories of First Nations communities, told first hand by artists and explorers from all reaches of the island.
Our monuments of yesteryear herald impressions of a different time, transporting you across tracks—The Mclean Mill Steam Train—or leading you to roam over impressive trestles, like Kinsole Trestle in Cobble Hill. And for when you’re looking for something leisurely, a stroll in Hatley Park’s gardens will certainly do.
Elk Falls Suspension Bridge, one of the latest stops added to the Vancouver Island travel landscape, overlooks cascading falls, and this Comox Valley highlight is also a destination for salmon fishing.
At places like East Sooke Regional Park, Sproat Lake, Petroglyph Park in Nanaimo, or on a Gulf Island like Quadra and Galiano, you’ll find yourself seeing eye to eye with the petroglyphs. These BC coast rock carvings date back well over 5,000 years.
To bring a local element to your Vancouver Island travels, plan time for main streets like those in Cumberland and Sidney. Canada’s only booktown, Sidney is home to niche bookstores, tucked around local giftshops, florists, and restaurants.
