The Last Frontier Just maybe Kitsault, BC

Few realize the importance of shunning, so far as possible, all associations unfriendly

to religious life. In choosing their surroundings, few make their spiritual prosperity the

first consideration. {Country Living by Ellen G. White}


Have you ever wanted to live the country life to be in a place where the air is fresh and you can have a small home, nice garden and a few dogs to keep the homestead safe?  A place where there is not so much of the worldliness and madness we find in many of our urban areas?  Then the town of Kitsault in British Columbia, Canada may just be the place for you! I found out about Kitsault as I was searching for possible places to live.  When I read about this town it reminded me of the TV show called Eureka (2006-2012).  It’s funny how something that's labeled science fiction one day can become reality later on.  The press release describes the town as:

Kitsault is a purpose-built resource community with complete community infrastructure and housing for more than 1000 residents. With nearly 350 acres land of industrial land, full BC Hydro service, and a deep water port, Kitsault makes both economic and environmental sense as the preferred location to be the LNG terminal site for the export of natural gas from North East British Columbia to Asia and other markets. Other LNG pipeline routing to Kitsault has already been proposed.

The well maintained Kitsault town site features over 90 occupant-ready family homes, and approximately 150 two and three bedroom condominium units. The community facilities include a complete community complex with an aquatic center, community recreation rooms, an indoor arena for basketball, a curling ring and racquetball courts and much more. The town’s well maintained amenities include restaurant facilities, a shopping center, a post office, a bank, a supermarket, a medical center, as well as numerous outdoor amenities.

Kitsault Energy is in the process of consulting First Nations communities about training, education and employment opportunities. The Kitsault LNG terminal will result in job training and permanent well-paying careers for First Nations’ youth.  Kitsault Energy has also begun the process of consulting with LNG energy partners, as well as local, provincial and federal governments.
