British Columbia is a large and wonderful place, with one problem, not enough citizens and a lot of rules and regulations guranteed to keep you thinking you are safe anyway, in case you were wondering. You know provincial ministries CYA regualations, helmets required when riding a bike and pay for your gas before pumping. Rules and regulations that may or may not be enforced where you live in the Kootenay's.
Of the 4.3 million souls, who more or less call BC home for most of the year, almost 80% live in the lower mainland, Freaser Valley and southern end of Vancouver Island.
