About our British Columbia news

Latest news on British Columbia, covering Vancouver, Victoria, real estate market, forestry, Pacific trade, and Canada's western gateway to Asia.

Home to over 5.4 million people, British Columbia stands as Canada's westernmost province and third-largest economy, anchored by its bustling port cities, thriving tech sector, and diverse natural resources. The province's economic hub, Metro Vancouver, along with the provincial capital Victoria, drives significant economic activity through international trade, tourism, film production, and a robust real estate market.

Current developments in British Columbia centre on housing affordability challenges, with governments implementing various measures to address soaring property prices and rental costs. The province continues to expand its clean technology and digital sectors while managing traditional industries like forestry and mining. Environmental concerns, particularly relating to old-growth forest protection and pipeline developments, remain at the forefront of public discourse.

The province's cultural landscape reflects its rich diversity, with vibrant Asian communities shaping urban life, particularly in Vancouver and Richmond. First Nations culture and heritage play a central role in B.C.'s identity, with ongoing reconciliation efforts and Indigenous-led initiatives gaining momentum. The region's outdoor lifestyle, from skiing in Whistler to whale watching off Vancouver Island, defines its unique character and attracts millions of visitors annually.

British Columbia's history is deeply intertwined with Indigenous peoples' territories, including the Coast Salish, Haida, and numerous other Nations. The province joined Confederation in 1871, driven by the promise of a transcontinental railway. From the gold rush era to its emergence as Canada's Pacific gateway, B.C. has evolved into a global hub for trade, innovation, and cultural exchange.

Our NewsNow feed provides comprehensive coverage of British Columbia's dynamic property market, environmental policies, tech industry developments, and cultural events. Whether you're tracking real estate trends, following climate initiatives, or staying updated on infrastructure projects like the Broadway Subway extension, our feed delivers timely, reliable news about Canada's Pacific province.
