Welcome from the Film CommissionWelcome to the Thompson-Nicola Regional District, just a 3-hour drive

from Vancouver, British Columbia

As Chair of the Thompson-Nicola Film Commission and Mayor ofAshcroft, I’ve worked directly with many film and television productions,and I have enjoyed every one. And I’m told the cast and crews haveenjoyed working with us too. Major feature productions, such as AnUnfinished Life, Firewall, Shooter and The Pledge, deposited excitementand goodwill into our region, and exhibited the world of looks theThompson-Nicola region can be.

Our deserts, box canyons with clay hoodoos, rolling grasslands andwestern movie set Wildhorse Town were well suited for westerns such asthe Canadian-German co-production Miss Texas, By Dawn’s Early Light,The Grey Fox, Gunfighter’s Moon and The Gift of Giving. Our foothillswere Afghanistan for Afghan Knights and Traffic: The Mini-series, India &Pakistan for Partition, Africa for Shooter and the Baja Peninsula for The

Sisterhood of the Travelling Pants. We even doubled northern Canada’s tundra for The SnowWalker.

We’ve been blown-up and shot at as you’ll witness in Firewall, filmed around Kamloops, and TheWicker Man and the pilot for Superman’s Smallville in Merritt, but we’re still standing and hopingfor more. We’ve had aliens visit from Battlestar Galactica, a lady truck driver depict her story inLady is a Teamster:The Diana Kilmury Story at our famous Highland Valley Copper Mine in LoganLake, and we mingled with the folks from Hard Core Logo. We were especially honoured to havethe Academy Award nominated director, Atom Egoyan, direct The Sweet Hereafter in Ashcroft,Merritt and Spences Bridge, and create a powerful story amongst our pristine snowy terrain andpicturesque roads. However, it was our cold and dreary looks coupled with our snowy terrain thatenticed Sean Penn to film The Pledge in Lytton & Merritt areas.

The BC Film Commission boasts that British Columbia is “A World of Looks.” Well, theThompson-Nicola Region boasts a world looks, too, except ours are “All in an Hour Drive.”

We invite you to film in our region. We guarantee your project will get our undivided attention

and support because we appreciate your business.

CLIMATELogan Lake sits at an elevation that results in relatively cool temperatures and a short growingseason. While surrounding mountains receive largeamounts of snowfall, Logan Lake is sheltered andreceives only a fraction of the snow that falls in thearea. The weather is ideally suited for cross-countryskiing and snow-mobiling in the winter and fishingyear ’round makes this season a little gentler.

TEMPERATURE

(°F-32) x 5/9 = °C

1 degree Celsius (1°C) = 1/100 of the difference between the boiling and freezing points of pure water at sea level. 0°C is freezing point; 100°C is boiling point.

HINT: To convert °F to °C (Multiply degrees x 2) + 30

Example: 20 Celsius x 2 + 30 = 70° Fahrenheit

In metric, volume and weight and size are inter-related: 1 litre water weighs 1 kilogram and would fill a 10 centimetre cube. Similarly, 1 ml water weighs 1 g and equals 1 cm3 (cubic centimetre).

DRIVING SPEED

50 km/h is the speed limit on most urban streets. This equates to 30 mph.

80 or 90 km/h is the speed limit on most rural highways. These limits equate to 50 and 55 mph respectively.

100 or 110 km/h is the speed limit on most rural controlled access highways. These limits equate to 65 and 70 mph respectively.
