THE HALLMARK OF a good sales person is SIKORSKY S76C+ someone who tries to figure out what they can do for (BC AMBULANCE SERVICE) their client, rather than what the client can do for them. Scott Speakman, Helijet’s Manager, Sales and Community Relations, Nanaimo and Mid-Island learned that lesson early in the print industry, much of it spent working in advertising sales for the Nanaimo Daily News. When that community newspaper shut down in EUROCOPTER AS350 B2 January 2016, Speakman was at a loss. Both he and his wife, Pam, had been raised in Nanaimo, and they had no desire to move somewhere else with their two children, Jordyn (15) and Lucean (12). Unwilling to uproot family, Speakman began looking for a job with a company committed to the community. Upon seeing Helijet’s career posting for LEARJET 31A a Nanaimo position, he reached out to Jay Minter, Helijet’s Director of Marketing, for more information and quickly became intrigued by the opportunity to raise the awareness of Helijet within the local busi- ness community where he had spent the better part of a decade developing connections. “I recognized a lot of people in the community HAWKER 800A didn’t know about Helijet’s affordable and reliable 8 IN-FLIGHT REVIEW | FALL 2018 scheduled service to Vancouver and I knew I could help the company generate awareness.” Helijet’s senior management team recognized the value in having a homegrown representative in Nanaimo, so Speakman was hired shortly thereafter in September 2016. He quickly started to get the Comprehensive Health word out about Helijet. Assessments “A lot of people are aware of the floatplane carriers serving Nanaimo, and over time that has become the It’s time to invest thought process for getting on and off the Island,” says Speakman.

Establishing networks of protected areas and maintaining connectivity between them is the most recommended prescription for minimizing the impacts of these influences. Conservation planning must occur at the scale at which climate and evolutionary changes occur. The Yellowstone to Yukon Conservation Initiative (Y2Y) is one of the world's oldest and most advanced efforts to establish a large-scale network of protected areas and maintain connectivity between them. Working with a network of more than 125 partners, Y2Y promotes the establishment of new protected areas and their management for biodiversity conservation. Programs also support the mitigation of highway and railway impacts on wildlife, provide education and resources for minimizing conflicts between communities and wildlife, restore and remove industrial access roads, protect private lands through purchase or easement, and, when necessary, oppose inappropriate development.

  • Garibaldi Provincial Park 2010 Olympic Venue
    1 Garibaldi Provincial Park 2010 Olympic Venue Garibaldi Provincial Park, located in the traditional territory of the Squamish people, forms much of the backdrop to Whistler/ Blackcomb, site of the downhill events of the 2010 Winter Games. Sitting in the heart of the Coast Mountains, the park takes its name from the towering 2,678 metre peak, Mount Garibaldi. Garibaldi Park is known for its pristine beauty and spectacular natural features. Just 70 km north of Vancouver, the park offers over 90 km of established hiking trails, and is a favourite year-round destination for outdoor enthusiasts. Interesting Garibaldi Park Facts • The southern portion of Garibaldi Park is home to the Garibaldi Volcano, part of the Garibaldi Volcanic Belt and made up of Mount Garibaldi, Atwell Peak, and Dalton Dome. This stratavolcano, so named because of its conelike layers of hardened lava, rock and volcanic ash, last erupted 10,000 to 13,000 years ago under glacial ice. It is this event that is responsible for forming some of the fascinating geological features in the park, such as Opal Cone, the Table and Black Tusk. • The “Barrier” is a natural rock formation created by the volcanic explosion of Mount Price thousands of years ago; the lava created a natural dam for the melt streams from nearby glaciers. As a result Garibaldi Lake formed. The lake reaches depths of up to 300 metres in places and is rich in silt (or ‘rock flour’), which gives the lake its characteristic milky blue colour. www.bcparks.ca 2 Garibaldi Provincial Park 2010 Olympic Venue History In 1860, while surveying Howe Sound on board the Royal Navy ship H.M.S.

  • Community Risk Assessment
    COMMUNITY RISK ASSESSMENT Squamish-Lillooet Regional District Abstract This Community Risk Assessment is a component of the SLRD Comprehensive Emergency Management Plan. A Community Risk Assessment is the foundation for any local authority emergency management program. It informs risk reduction strategies, emergency response and recovery plans, and other elements of the SLRD emergency program. Evaluating risks is a requirement mandated by the Local Authority Emergency Management Regulation. Section 2(1) of this regulation requires local authorities to prepare emergency plans that reflects their assessment of the relative risk of occurrence, and the potential impact, of emergencies or disasters on people and property. SLRD Emergency Program [email protected] Version: 1.0 Published: January, 2021 SLRD Community Risk Assessment SLRD Emergency Management Program Executive Summary This Community Risk Assessment (CRA) is a component of the Squamish-Lillooet Regional District (SLRD) Comprehensive Emergency Management Plan and presents a survey and analysis of known hazards, risks and related community vulnerabilities in the SLRD. The purpose of a CRA is to: • Consider all known hazards that may trigger a risk event and impact communities of the SLRD; • Identify what would trigger a risk event to occur; and • Determine what the potential impact would be if the risk event did occur. The results of the CRA inform risk reduction strategies, emergency response and recovery plans, and other elements of the SLRD emergency program. Evaluating risks is a requirement mandated by the Local Authority Emergency Management Regulation. Section 2(1) of this regulation requires local authorities to prepare emergency plans that reflect their assessment of the relative risk of occurrence, and the potential impact, of emergencies or disasters on people and property.

  • Garibaldi Lake (Saturday, August 6, 2016)
    BMN HIKE REPORT Garibaldi Lake (Saturday, August 6, 2016) by Terry Puls View at the outlet of Garibaldi Lake, looking back toward Castle Towers Mountain and Mt. Carr. Terry Puls photo. Even an early 6:00 am start did not deter a group of BMN hikers from our August hike to Garibaldi Provincial Park to visit Taylor Meadows and Garibaldi Lake. Eleven of us met at our meeting location in Coquitlam under clear skies, though the air had a chill to it that would prove to provide the group with comfortable temperatures for the hike. Shortly after 6:00 we headed off by car to the trailhead where we would meet four others. Upon arriving at the Rubble Creek trailhead, we were greeted by two park rangers who warned us that the area was extremely busy and that there was a bear in the area. We never saw any signs of the bear; however, the crowds were certainly present. Even with our early start the parking lots were near capacity. After a quick introduction we headed off on our journey. The trail is in great shape and at a favourable grade, so we were able to make it to the 6 km junction fairly quickly, while enjoying the sights of some fairly impressive Douglas-fir trees along the way. Once at the 6 km junction, we regathered the group and, after a short break, headed for Taylor Meadows. Upon entering the Taylor Meadows area, some of our party caught a glimpse of a grouse alongside the trail. Once at the meadows, the views start to open up and we enjoyed the view of the Black Tusk and some of the other peaks in the area.
