On Vancouver Island’s remote west coast, Tofino is beautiful, isolated and vulnerable to the kinds of emergencies that can quickly become compound crises. In the series premiere, Lance Still asks what preparedness means in a place where outside help may be delayed, and why survival often depends on ordinary people making decisions before certainty arrives.

Featuring Tim Webb, Hilary O’Reilly, Marcie DeWitt and Nathalie Chouinard-Nolet, this episode explores search and rescue, local leadership and the difference between preventing disaster and preserving options.

Awareness buys time. Time buys options.
