  • Geoscience BC and Island Coastal Economic Trust Announce the Northern Vancouver Island Exploration Geoscience Project
    Geoscience BC and Island Coastal Economic Trust Announce the Northern Vancouver Island Exploration Geoscience Project Geoscience BC and the Island Coastal Economic Trust (ICET) are pleased to announce the funding of the Northern Vancouver Island (NVI) Exploration Geoscience Project. Geoscience BC’s Board has approved $530,000 for project activities, which is being matched by $400,000 from ICET, for a total project budget of $930,000. In addition, the Ministry of Jobs, Tourism and Innovation has provided generous support for stakeholder engagement in the project development phase, through the Campbell River Regional Economic Pilot initiative. “This project was a definite priority coming out of the recent Regional Economic Investment Pilot in Campbell River,” said Pat Bell, B.C. Minister of Jobs, Tourism and Innovation. “It’s easy to see why because mining presents tremendous opportunity for job creation in B.C. and for the north Vancouver Island. The data being collected is essential to moving forward and delivering on the potential for job creation in the region.” The NVI Exploration Geoscience Project will generate new geoscience data for northern Vancouver Island, near the communities of Campbell River, Port Hardy, Port McNeill, Alert Bay, Port Alice and Zeballos. This new regional information will help attract mineral exploration interest and investment, increase the understanding of the mineral potential, and provide local First Nations and communities with more information on the geology of the region. “On behalf of the Board of Directors of the Island Coastal Economic Trust, I am pleased to participate in the announcement for this project, which is the Trust's first opportunity in the mining sector,” said Camela Tang, ICET Vice Chair.

  • Sayward, Sayward Valley and Kelsey Bay the Strathcona Community Health Network Is Pleased to Share These Community Health Profiles
    Social Determinants of Health Fact Sheet: Sayward, Sayward Valley and Kelsey Bay The Strathcona Community Health Network is pleased to share these community health profiles. We have developed a community health profile for each of the eight communities within our region. Community health profiles were developed for two purposes: 1) to support the ongoing work of the Strathcona Community Health Network, and 2) to build capacity within the Strathcona region. 1. The Strathcona Community Health Network (SCHN) has articulated our approach to work, which includes a commitment to being evidence-informed by balancing the best available data with local knowledge in collaborative decisions. These community health profiles, then, have created an opportunity to define and collect or generate local data to support decision making and future action by the SCHN. 2. Perhaps more importantly, the SCHN’s approach also involves community capacity building. Per our Strategic Plan, we “encourage a capacity building approach so the community is strengthened and partners grow and improve their knowledge, skills and infrastructure through engaging with the network.” Community health profiles can be used to build community capacity in many ways, including the following: • Use the information within to support planning and decision-making processes. • Utilize this report as evidence when applying for grant funding and/or providing evaluation information to funders. • Employ the information within when advocating for policy changes at all levels of government. • Connect with the individuals, organizations, and coalitions within your community that are working towards greater outcomes. If you’d like more information about these groups, please contact us. • Initiate conversations with your neighbours, family, friends, and colleagues about the information that stood out to you.

  • MUNICIPAL INSPECTOR with the DISTRICT of PORT HARDY
    MUNICIPAL INSPECTOR with the DISTRICT OF PORT HARDY Located on the northern most tip of beautiful Vancouver Island, Port Hardy is a wilderness paradise that invites both locals and tourists to “Live the Adventure.” From its traditional resource-based “roots” to today’s emerging eco-tourism, green energy and aquaculture sectors, the region remains committed to maintaining a wholesome, unspoiled natural environment for its 4,132 (2016 census) residents and three neighbouring First Nations bands. The District offers contract building inspection services to Port McNeill, Port Alice and Coal Harbour making this position diverse. In recent years, the cost of construction in Port Hardy has increased with new development occurring and major renovations to key facilities including the Airport, RCMP office and the installation of a new Coast Guard Depot on the horizon. The District is a great place to work with a strong support team of staff and managers. The District is seeking an individual to fill the role of Municipal Inspector, a position that is responsible for: • Processing applications for building permits related to new construction and alterations / renovations / additions / relocation / demolition to/of existing buildings and structures; • Examining and reviewing building plans, drawings and applicable documentation to ensure conformity with bylaws, codes (Building, Fire and Plumbing) and related standards; • Inspecting buildings and properties to ensure compliance with bylaws, codes and standards; • Enforcement of the Provincial Fire

Hearing from UBCM directly on some of its key interests and issues was very much appreciated. As Minister Osborne and President Frenkel said during the calls, these calls continue to be a great opportunity to hear from you about the key issues and opportunities you are working on in your communities for 2021 (in addition to COVID-19). There were a number of themes that came up during the calls including connectivity, reopening of BC parks in the spring and roll out of vaccine distribution. This email sets out links and resources on some of the topics raised. As well, on specific issues such as grant applications or questions particular to your community, please remember that your staff can reach out to Ministry of Municipal Affairs staff for assistance (see the Local Government Division staff finder for the appropriate staff person for your area). COVID-19 update The state of emergency is extended to March 2, allowing health and emergency management officials to continue to use extraordinary powers under the Emergency Program Act.
