Backed by the Vancouver Island Range and facing the open Pacific Ocean, Pacific Rim presents the rich natural and cultural heritage of Canada's west coast. Its cool and wet maritime climate produces an abundance of life in the water and on land. Lush coastal temperate rainforest gives way to bountiful and diverse intertidal and subtidal areas. These natural wonders are interwoven with the long and

dynamic history of the Nuu-chah-nulth First Nations and European explorers and settlers. Cette page est aussi disponible en français à http://www.facebook.com/RPNPacificRim.

Parks Canada, with participation from 19 Wing Comox, conducted Exercise SURF BREAK in Pacific Rim National Park Reserve in April —a hands-on, multi agency exercise focused on responding to a near shore vessel capsizing with multiple subjects in the water.

These exercises are part of spring training that helps ensure the Visitor Safety Team remains prepared to respond quickly and effectively to emergencies.
