Emergency Resources for Stakeholders

We have put together a list of resources for our tourism stakeholders to help you find information, support, and guidance to help prepare your business for an emergency.   Vancouver Island North Tourism will continue to align our messaging with Destination BC and in accordance with the Provincial Government.

Are you Prepared for an Emergency on the North Island?

 As part of our ongoing commitment to the safety and preparedness of our industry partners and stakeholders, we are sharing some important resources regarding emergency management. These are crucial during emergencies, and it’s important that everyone has access to and understands them.

Here are some important resources to help you prepare for Emergencies:

  • PreparedBC: Guide for Tourism Operators [Link]

  • PreparedBC: Emergency Plan for Tourism Operators [Link]

  • British Columbia Emergency Management Framework (2022) [Link]

  • Indigenous Engagement Requirements Funding Program Guide [Link]

  • Destination BC Website | Emergency Preparedness [Link]

These materials should be reviewed and integrated into operational plans by all stakeholders. Your proactive engagement with these resources especially in the case of any emergency is vital for the safety and well-being of our communities in the Vancouver Island North Region.
