Fort St. John
Fort St. John (population: 18,774) is located in northeastern BC, on a plateau north of the Peace River. The general area lies on the Great Interior Plains and is rich in natural resources (mainly oil and gas, timber and hydroelectricity) as well as agricultural outputs. More grain, forage, seed and honey is produced here than anywhere else in BC. As the largest city in the Peace region, Fort St. John functions as a service centre for smaller communities. You'll find many big-city conveniences here but few big-city annoyances.
