Allison’s Welcome

Welcome to Geography of British Columbia, this introductory course will cover the physical geography (physiographic regions, geomorphology, climatology, and biogeography), resource issues (natural resources, industry, and conservation) and cultural geography (First Nations, ethnic diversity, rural and urban communities). British Columbia is easy to teach about because it is one of the most diverse and richly endowed places in the world, both in terms of its natural resources and the diversity of its people.  It is also a place I love.  I have had the good fortune to live in many communities in British Columbia (Nelson, Rossland, Smithers, Gold River, Victoria, Williams Lake, Riske Creek) and I have traveled virtually everywhere in the province for recreation and work.  I am excited to explore British Columbia with you.
