Home > Quesnel, British Columbia


 

Quesnel is a town in the north of British Columbia, Canada. Its main claim to fame may be limited to its having hosted the 2000 British Columbia Winter Games, an annual provincial amateur sports competition.

Quesnel runs on its forestry industry. Home to 6 different factories, including a medium density fiber plant and a pulp mill, it produces enough income to support around 20 000 citizens. Because of Northern British Columbia's small population, it is surrounded by lakes and virtually untouched wilderness for hundreds of kilometers in any direction.
