Interesting. Welcome.

Island Lock doesnt appear in any directory for Vancouver Island. Who are they and are they licensed? (as is the law in BC)

yah, vancouver island in my opinion is the best place to live
no traffic, shoppin only 20-30 minutes away, <snip> awesome beaches and natural shit
i love it, we get the best of both worlds, not to hot in the summer, not -20 in the winter + we got a sick mountain like an hour away from where i live
moved here 12 years ago still loving every single second haha

I want to go on one of the whale kayak tours, they have one for 4 days out in the ocean which sounds like a lot of fun, only had a week on the island, started in Nanaimo, drove to Cambell river, Tofino (that drive would be awesome in a sports car :) ) and down to Victoria, as for the -20, in in Banff, not looking forward to it but i like having huge mountains 5 minutes away, and still haven't seen a bear, there made up aren't they :)

I was told that a lot of the import cars come through Vancouver Isl, I did see a few Mitsubishi evo's, I used to have a 1990 Toyota mr2 na that would of been real fun there except that when the logging trucks come around dome of those corners they take up the whole road.
