Vancouver & British Columbia
British Columbia is a province situated on the west coast of Canada. The province is often called
“Beautiful British Columbia” and is a very popular tourist location. The capital of British Columbia
is Victoria, and its largest city is Vancouver.
Vancouver has been ranked as one of the best cities in the world to live in.
Indeed, the ecological state of the city is excellent, it seems like a city could not have more parks
and trees, and the climate and landscapes of British Columbia and Vancouver encourage outdoor
recreation and tourism. Vancouver is one of not many cities in the world where one can ski in the
mountains, swim in the ocean, skydive, go for a bike ride around the park, and attend a concert, all
on the same day.
Spring and Summer in Vancouver
In the Summer time, the beachs and parks are
so full of people. The weather is the best one,

Vancouver, the
Hollywood North
Vancouver has been used as a filmmaking
location for over a century.
Isolated by distance from the domestic film
production communities in Toronto and
Montreal, it became known as "Hollywood
North" for its role as a production centre for
US feature films shot in British Columbia.
The provincial government first established a
film development office in 1977 to market the
province to the Hollywood community.
In 2000, BC crossed the billion-dollar mark in
production for the first time, and in 2002, 75%
of all Canadian foreign productions were
based in British Columbia and Ontario.
Today we have in B.C. more than 86% of the
Hollywood productions bringing revenue to
Canada.
