​“My name is David Breault. I'm the grad student rep for the UNBC TWS student chapter. I'm studying Pacific marten ecology on Haida Gwaii, and I joined TWS to connect with like-minds. I come from Port Coquitlam originally, near Vancouver, so it took me some time to adjust to the northern lifestyle. My first winter in Prince George I hiked to school and took a crazy carpet down the hill to get home. I went ice fishing and cross-country skiing for the first time. It was all new to me and it all made me feel Canadian in a way I never felt living through the mild, rainy winters of the lower mainland. This summer I fell in love with fly fishing for trout and grayling in the cold, clear waters of northern BC, and volunteered at a bird banding station in Mackenzie. I feel like the north is my second home now, and that sense of place comes from the wildlife and the UNBC community.
Below is a picture of me at the Mackenzie banding station with the first bird I got to band: a common yellowthroat.”
