Growing up in Metro Vancouver and currently living in Kelowna…..I am privileged enough to live in THE best place on earth and I wake up grateful every morning. It’s the best coast for a reason.

I just moved at the every south end of the forest in Creston BC, and big part of my life has been discovering on how to help regrow this magnificent forest, so thank you for this lovely documentary! I'm hoping to help later in the future to go up to Terrace BC and help grow indigenous plants and bring back regular pollinators to the native lands. I just hope our summers at the south end get more rain in the summer. Floods in the spring and terrible droughts until late October or November. Would help if the Okanagan kept their wetlands more natured than keep building hotels, golf-course and Walmart's on top of them it would help to stop the forest fires.

Im italian but ive lived on Vancouver island for 2 years. Nature there is something that i cant explain with words. Tofino is one of the most beautiful places in the world

Love from Ontario for all those living in BC! We have discovered Ontario and Quebec and I thing BC is the most beautiful and diverse province of Canada, followed perhaps by Quebec.

[Tammissa]

As a local I must say it’s extremely beautiful here.

From someone who is flying to Alberta from the UK this Thursday this documentary was very informative. I have noticed some more of these as well which I will watch before I fly.

I went from Vancouver to prince Rupert on a salmon fishing boat in 2008 and stayed there for the season, beautiful experience

"Just because we don´t rely on it doesnt me we dont need it for our existence." Beautifully said.

[tylergarb]

those trees towards the end sure are impressive! too bad premier john horgan continues to avoid a moratorium on old-growth logging to prevent losing those trees because he's beholden to companies like Teal-Jones who are cutting down these trees for short term profits that will not go back into the community. once these trees are gone, that's it.

[johndafoe]

Very glad you brought up the urchin barren problem. It can't be overstated.
Sorry, that you initially pictured river otters to illustrate sea-otter.

[davidl.]

This was beautifully done. Thank you so much for all your work. Living in the east I have always envied those who live west and can have the ability to live work and thrive on the west coast

[larryzigler]

Stunning !!! And that's an understatement !!!!

[rubengonzalez]

Thank you for a very good and interesting documentary .

[andrewbrown]

Ive lived out there in the southern portion (west vancouver island) and the wet chased me out. Only place ive seen peanut butter go bad.

Too bad though. The natural world there is just mind numbing. Loved it and did some big clean-ups.

[funsweed]

I live on Vancouver Island, what a great place, only one of its kind in the world

[Autumn-xsly]

It’s really well said at the end of the clip about mankind who has the ability to destroy or protect these ecosystems; and already we have seen lots of wild forest fires, landslides, flooding etc in recent years!!!

[kwaynebusby]

Thank you. I am Canadaian living abroad in United States. I have had the privilege to travel. Coming from British Columbia, they don’t call it Beautiful for nothing. Miss you, leave the light on I’ll be back soon.

[golgoth]

I hope they never, ever, ever think about cutting those majestic trees
