Changes
in the Victoria workplace mirror those taking place around the
world. Traditional job activity in forestry and fishing is giving
way to new opportunities in the high tech arena. Because Victoria is
the Hawaii of Canada, dot com and high tech companies are starting
up or relocating here in order to enjoy the climate and amenities.
Government and the service industry also provide opportunities for
creative and fulfilling work. |
Students
from around the world benefit from the educational facilities found
in Victoria. Whether one chooses to learn in a truly traditional
atmosphere at the unique and progressive Lester B. Pearson College
of the Pacific, or earn a degree at the University of Victoria, one
of Canada's top universities, students are offered a variety of
elite educational opportunities. Choices between English and French,
and private and public, are offered to elementary and high school
students to ensure the variety needed to meet all educational
requirements.
