We are loving all the great feedback about the latest issue of Douglas magazine which features the President and CEO of the Victoria International Airport Elizabeth Brown on our cover!

Cover Reveal! The Power Issue has landed.

Power often moves quietly — and in this issue, we spotlight the people and sectors shaping Greater Victoria behind the scenes. From under-the-radar leaders and tariff troubles to Victoria’s gaming comeback and a conversation with Rifflandia’s Nick Blasko, this is essential reading for anyone navigating the region’s evolving business landscape.
