Ten Things Learned Living Off-grid in Canada
It was in 2011 that I first understood what off-grid living really meant. Before then I had heard people claim they were off-grid if they switched their cell phone off for a day or two. Other people thought anyone who lived in remote places was off-grid. None of that made any sense.

As Schubert approached the house, he was, oddly, jarred by its normalcy. It was smack-dab in the middle of a perfectly quiet street, up a slight hill and around a couple of lazy curves from the highway, painted a modest earthy brown to almost camouflage it in its forested surroundings. And strange things had been happening there. As a renowned paranormal investigator, Schubert was shocked to receive a call at his Belgian office beckoning him to Whistler.

At the annual Nimby Fifty bike race, competitors usually have to steel themselves for that baking sun in the Pemberton Valley before they cross the finish line at North Arm Farm.

For Whistler Search and Rescue (WSAR), there are missions that make headlines: the case of hiker Tyler Wright, for example, who set out on a rugged 50-kilometre journey from Squamish to Coquitlam in 2010 and sadly never returned; or Christine Newman, who was near death after falling down a tree well during a snowshoeing trek in Garibaldi Park in 2014 and whose story had a miraculously happy ending.

The Last Breaths of a Dying Asbestos Mine
Nearly everyone else on the planet agrees the age of asbestos is over. But the generations of men who’ve built their lives harvesting this powerful poison aren’t ready to turn out the lights. Night was still upon us when Gilles Gauthier, in his mid-fifties, stepped outside of his home. Noting the dreary dark grey sky, he exclaimed, “It’ll be another cloudy day!” As he drove to work, he could spot, here and there, the silhouette of a farmhouse with one or two lights on emerging from the darkness.
How to Resuscitate a Forest Left for Dead
The alarms go off at 4:30, electronic morning birds chirping at each other across the camp. On the other side of the river an owl hoots at snooze-button interludes, perhaps echoing an interval learned from several mornings’ worth of tired campers. The slow-running water is dense with pink salmon, and even at this hour their leaps filter through trees and tent nylon, reaching ears with a sound like heavy stones tossed carelessly from the bank.
