Throwback to the third and final project we concluded in 2023: Torpy Lodge! Topy was a 42-bed remote land-based workforce housing facility that supported logging operations east of Prince George. The turnkey-project included camp construction and installation, catering and hospitality services, site-maintenance services, as well as site demobilization. Shoutout to Tasu Construction for construction support!

In November we wrapped up a successful third and final season of supplying catering and hospitality services at Black Diamond’s Mount Merrick Lodge. The 304-bed lodge, located just south of Chetwynd, BC, provided an efficient and effective accommodation service to workers on the Costal GasLink Project. We were proud to help provide a “home-away-from-home” for these hard workers!

Last week, with the support of Tasu Construction we officially wrapped the demobilization of our biggest project to date: Sqemel Lalem Lodge. LandSea formed a partnership with Shxw’owhamel Ventures in 2018 in pursuit of the workforce housing project in support of the Trans Mountain Pipeline. Since opening our doors in November of 2020, we provided over 1 million meals to workers, serving our last on October 31st, 2023.

It’s been a BUSY couple of months for our team here at LandSea, with the demobilization of three camps and opening of another two in the span of just 8 weeks. We’re excited to share the stories of these successful projects soon, but for now it’s time for some well-deserved rest and relaxation!
As we reflect on 2023, we are grateful for the hard work, resilience, dedication, and generosity of our team, guests, clients, partners, and the many communities we have had the pleasure of working with the year. As we look to the year ahead, we are excited to learn, grow, innovate, and excel as we strive to surpass hospitality standards and deliver remarkable experiences to everyone we serve.
See you in 2024!

Today is a day to reflect and commemorate the experiences of those impacted by the residential school system, and to honor the healing journey of survivors, their families, and their communities. We are grateful to live and work throughout various stunning traditional territories of Indigenous peoples, and honor the history of their origins on these lands.

As an organization, we continue to expand upon our commitments towards reconciliation through the foundation and growth of new partnerships, a focus on programs that maximize Indigenous capacity and content on our projects, as well as various other initiatives. Reconciliation is a continuous journey of learning, engaging, un-learning, adapting, innovating, thriving and so much more, and we will continue this journey as we strive towards achieving economic and cultural reconciliation.

Here’s a pristine photo of a logging camp we operate near Takla Lake, BC…. Before it was surrounded by wildfires now dancing just 3km away, and before 80 wildfire fighters arrived Monday, erecting an adjoining tent city overnight.

Our small-yet-mighty team on-site have pulled off nothing short of a miracle to ensure these crews remain welcomed and fed while they fight fires to protect these lands. Words can’t really do justice to the herecleum effort and energy that goes into rising to occasions like these. To our staff, we hope you can feel the infinite gratitude, respect, and appreciation we have for you on a daily basis. Truly, thank you.

Canada is home to more than 630 Indigenous Communities, representing more than 50 Nations and 50 Indigenous Languages. More than 200 Distinct Indigenous Groups speaking 30 different Indigenous languages and just under 60 dialects reside in our home province of British Columbia.

We are honoured by the opportunity to work and partner with several of these communities, and we humbly acknowledge and honor their rich histories, unique cultures, and valuable contributions.

Today, we renew our commitment to engaging with Indigenous communities in a meaningful and respectful way, with a goal to build long-lasting relationships that create value and opportunity.
