Comedian Jonny Harris toured through Ucluelet last month as the town was selected for his popular CBC Television program Still Standing.

The long-running program showcases B次元官网网址渁we-inspiringB次元官网网址� communities throughout Canada and series producer Alex Lazarowich told Black Press Media that the crewB次元官网网址檚 Ucluelet experience was one of their best so far.

B次元官网网址淥bviously the beauty of the Pacific coast canB次元官网网址檛 be beat. But to be fair to the rest of Canada, letB次元官网网址檚 just say that in over 85 episodes shot, Ucluelet is in the top 10,B次元官网网址� Lazarowich wrote in an email to the Westerly B次元官网网址.

He added that the showB次元官网网址檚 story producer Andrea Lynett had approached Ucluelet roughly two years ago hoping to feature the community, but filming was postponed twice due to the coronavirus pandemic.

B次元官网网址淐asting Still Standing is a real balancing act. We have a certain criteria for each town that we visit. For example, the town has to be under a certain population, have come back from adversity or industry turnover and have something that really makes it stand out,B次元官网网址� Lazarowich wrote. B次元官网网址淭he town of Ucluelet was chosen for a number of reasons: it has a unique logging and fishing history that not many Canadians know about, the area is stunning and of course the surfing.B次元官网网址�

He added many of the crew had never visited the West Coast before and B次元官网网址渨ere surprised by the stunning scenery, the wildlife, and the power of the Pacific ocean,B次元官网网址� adding the weather provided a perfect backdrop.

B次元官网网址淲hile we were in town, the weather was sunny, rainy, and stormy. Mother Nature put on a spectacular show for our cameras. It was the best way to experience this part of Canada,B次元官网网址� he wrote.

Along with the picture perfect scenery, Lazarowich said local residents were both welcoming and accommodating.

B次元官网网址淲e like to say that Still Standing is a love letter to Canada and we felt the love from Ucluelet,B次元官网网址� he wrote.

He added UclueletB次元官网网址檚 episode will air during Still StandingB次元官网网址檚 next season, sometime between late 2022 and early 2023.

B次元官网网址淲e hope that locals can see the care and heart that Jonny Harris put into crafting the story of their town,B次元官网网址� he wrote.
