Located in northwestern British Columbia, Canada, on Kaien Island, Prince Rupert is one of the deepest natural harbors in North America and an important shipping hub connecting Asia and North America. This small city of about 12,000 people is characterized by a mix of Aboriginal culture and diverse communities, surrounded by temperate rainforests, glacial fjords, and rich ecotourism resources, such as the Khutzeymateen Grizzly Bear Sanctuary and Smugglers Cove. The economy is centered on forestry, fishing and port logistics, with the western terminus of the Canadian National Railway (CN) at the port, allowing goods to be shipped quickly around the world.
