The Province of British Columbia has a climate that varies significantly from region to region, however, the Vancouver- area is largely influenced by its proximity to the Pacific Ocean and various mountain ranges. Vancouver, being in British Columbia’s South Coast region, experiences a mild climate year-round, and enjoys warm summers where the temperatures average around 20 degrees Celsius, and some of the mildest winters in Canada with temperatures rarely going below 0 degrees Celsius. Vancouver also gets lots of rain which is a common occurrence, particularly during the fall and winter. Vancouver has one of the healthiest economies in Canada and is home to the “Pacific Rim” gateway which connects it to other countries along the rim of the Pacific Ocean, as well as various economic sectors as tourism, film, agriculture, technology, and natural resources. Due to its location, Vancouver is also accessible by various methods of transportation via ground, air, and sea.
