Over the summers of 2021 and 2022 the Pink Buffalo team had the pleasure of working with Grumpy Sailor to capture the local BC components of their Google Topaz Project.
We hold our experiences working with the Tseshaht and Hupacasath nations close to our hearts. Building relationships and respecting Indigenous communities is crucial in any project, we feel very lucky to have had the opportunity to visit these places and gain meaningful insights into the culture and traditions of these nations.
Once complete, Topaz, the first subsea cable to connect Canada and Asia, will run from Vancouver to Port Alberni on the west coast of Vancouver Island, and across the Pacific Ocean to the prefectures of Mie and Ibaraki in Japan.
