Nanaimo, Ucluelet, Victoria
Farther afield on Vancouver Island.
Montgomery’s musts of Surf ‘N’ Turf,
A western coast of dramatic landscape,
Royal rainforests, luxe business and
Unspoiled beaches.
It’s peaks and valleys,
Proclaimed in ribbons and bays.
Salmon barbecues, a whale of time
With natural appeal far from home
It’s good old British Columbia,
A gift
From Mother Earth
