Hollies Happy Golf
This humerous video from the Hoilies Executive Course in Port Alberni shows the fun side of the game and what it can and should be about - having fun! Port Alberni, located in the center of Vancouver Island, prides itself as the "Salmon Fishing Capital of Canada" but this video shows why Port Alberni has also turned out two of the best women golfers in Canada (full disclosure, I'm a resident of Port Alberni). The Hollies Executive Course and nearby Alberni Golf Club provide great opportunities to learn the game in an accessible and affordable way.

I am pleased to introduce the Water Sustainability Act into the B.C. Legislature as Bill 18 today. This legislation delivers on government’s commitment to modernize B.C.’s water laws, regulate groundwater use and strengthen provincial water management in light of growing demands on water and our changing climate. Water is our most precious resource and this legislation will help ensure that our supply of fresh, clean water is sustainable – to meet our needs today and for generations to come.
