The Corporation’s five core marketing objectives over the next three years include:

  2. Strengthening British Columbia’s destination brand health and resonance.
  3. Increasing brand engagement and traveller advocacy.

The new brand will first be used in Destination BC’s upcoming ski campaigns in Washington, and Ontario beginning this month and throughout the ski season. It will then be utilized throughout social media, advertising and PR initiatives.
