GENERAL AREA INFORMATION
NorthEast BC Realty office is located in Fort St John BC.
Fort St John plays a major role in the infrastructure of north east British Columbia. Over 62,000 people live and work in the north east BC area within the communities of Taylor, Dawson Creek, Hudson Hope, Tumbler Ridge, Chetwynd, and Fort Nelson. But Fort St John remains the hub of services to the area.
As a hub community, Fort St John’s economy is driven by energy sector industries related to oil & gas, electric power, forestry, farming and more.
Northern Health operates the Fort St John Regional Hospital and Residential Care Facility. The $300+ million dollar complex opened in June 2012 and continues to grow with additions to equipment to meet the needs within the community.
The North Peace Regional Airport, located only minutes from Fort St John’s city center, delivers corporate, industrial and personal air travel with services provided from independent helicopter service and North Cariboo Air to Air Canada, and WestJet.

The industrial footprint of the area includes companies such as Canfor Peace Valley OSB Plant, Spectra Energy Transmission - Taylor Complex/McMahon Plant, Shell’s Groundbirch/Montney natural gas processing plants, Tervita disposal management facility, BC Hydro power generating stations - including SITE C Clean Energy Project along the Peace River which is currently under construction.

Note from Ron Rodgers
I believe 2018 was a pivotal year for North East BC. Although commercial real estate sales were once again down from last year, we saw a slight upbeat in investor confidence & inquiries as a result of the continued movement forward with projects such as LNG. But for this trend to carry on, I believe we need to remind our political leaders and decision makers that the communities of North East BC have an outstanding historical record of being a solid economic driver for BC’s overall prosperity.
Let’s all make a pact for 2019 - When asked to Vote - VOTE.
When asked to provide your opinion, fill in the survey. And if you have the chance to speak directly to your local political representative - give them an earful! Let’s give 2019 the kick start it needs to regenerate interest and awareness for North East BC.
