Hugh told us that before his family owned it, its predecessor had a hand in constructing the first specialized logging insurance program in the 1970s.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Today, he regards Summit\u2019s business as being dependent on a whole range of activities connected with the timber value chain, as well as mining and supporting activities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>What\u2019s the future of British Columbia from his perspective?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cIt\u2019s natural resources, because without that I don\u2019t think BC or Canada as a whole could survive just on technological research. It\u2019s the nature of BC, it drives the economy. I believe the figure is 78 per cent of revenue comes from the northern communities based on natural resources.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>At the same time, Hugh told us that technology is ever evolving, with greater awareness today of how to preserve the lands where resource activities take place.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Hugh figured the sticker had been in the window at Summit for a good dozen years and was taken at face value by customers and passersby. \u201cWe\u2019ve never even been asked about it, until you called.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>More stickers like this, displayed at supportive businesses like Summit, could be a way for businesses to make known that they recognize the value of British Columbia\u2019s intensive, pervasive supply chain of goods and services enabling resource benefits to flow.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"900\" height=\"507\"
