Our Business Philosophy
We are not strictly an “IT Provider.” Rather, we are a “Productivity Provider,” helping organizations be their best by doing what we do best. That’s why we are a leading source of comprehensive IT programs. We’ll deliver an inclusive program that’s designed to minimize conversations about networks and computers while maximizing discussions about employee experience and company goals. Features may include IT strategy, cloud services, disaster recovery planning, simplified employee on-boarding, and enhanced cyber threat protection. F12 exists to help your business thrive.
“We’re all about bringing stability and predictability to our clients’ IT environments,” says Naomi Carmichael. “From selecting quality computer equipment to monitoring systems for issues before they impact day-to-day work, our aim is to make IT something business owners don’t need to worry about.”
F12 also supports local businesses through the Comox Valley of Chamber of Commerce. They have sponsored numerous Chamber initiatives since becoming members in 1994, and this year F12 decided to become a Corporate Partner to further grow their public profile.

Ecofish supports numerous environmental initiatives in the Comox Valley Regional District (CVRD), and with our head office located in the heart of Courtenay, BC, we are proud to support the community as a key sponsor for 2020. Our environmental consulting firm has helped industry meet environmental licensing and compliance requirements for 20 years. With over 100 scientists and support staff working on projects in BC, across Canada, and internationally, we deliver key environmental assessment, monitoring, and mitigation services for all project phases: pre-feasibility, assessment, construction, operations, and decommissioning. Our technical expertise features compliance and effectiveness monitoring, mitigation and offsetting solutions, hydrology, fish passage design, instream flow assessment, and water quality modelling. Our regulatory experience provides strategic planning, regulatory solutions, and litigation support. A trusted advisor to industry, government, and First Nations, Ecofish delivers guideline-compliant environmental assessment and monitoring services that help build and operate great clean energy projects.
It all started twenty years ago, when we imagined how impartial, complete, accurate information could help regulators make better decisions more quickly, bringing certainty to project developers and reducing the risks of environmental impacts. We worked with government and industry to improve the management of the hydroelectric industry by developing provincial and national guidelines for assessment and monitoring. Today this approach is the standard in the province, with applications across Canada and the world that brings the effective, practical results that industry, and the environment requires.
Guided by our four principles - scientific excellence, professional environmental ethics, business discipline, and social responsibility, Ecofish works with industry, Government and First Nations, to deliver a well-rounded, science-based approach to everything we do. We support local environmental groups and take on pro-bono projects to support local environmental initiatives. We invest in Research & Development to help us achieve scientific excellence and improved and refined scientific methodologies and approaches. And of course, we generously support a wide range of charitable activities such as food banks, medical research, and local interest groups.
Ecofish has grown quickly in the past ten years as a direct result of this principle-based approach: we bring talented, passionate environmental professionals together and focus them on demanding projects to find better ways of assessing, mitigating and monitoring environmental effects. We give our team the best tools and the time to do the work necessary to solve our client’s key challenges, supporting their careers along the way. These principles stand behind all of our decisions and allow us to deliver better environmental outcomes and greater value for clients.
Today, we are a well-known and well-trusted environmental consultancy, offering a broad range of trusted environmental assessment, monitoring, mitigation, offsetting and design services. Recently listed for the third time on Canadian Business and Maclean’s Growth 500 list of Canada’s fastest-growing companies, we are excited for the future. We will strive to further our contributions and bring new levels of expertise to our community, and clients, as we continue to grow.

YOUR COMOX VALLEY REAL ESTATE TEAM
“Our mission is to provide the finest real estate service in the Comox Valley based on the highest standard of ethics, values and client care. In doing so, we know that we will continue to earn the loyalty and trust of home sellers and home buyers who will become our life long clients and friends. We will always place our clients’ best interest first.”
For Michele Courtney, what’s really important is the satisfaction she gets from making a difference in her clients’ lives. “It’s not about transactions,” she says, “it’s about relationships. When I’m working with a client, helping them to buy or sell a home, I have their best interests at heart. How could I not strive to do my best for them?”
For Bill Anglin, whether you’re buying or selling residential property, investing in a condo, or you’re in the market for commercial property, clear communication is at the core of all great customer service. Really listening to the real estate goals of my clients and making those goals a priority is how I bring home buyers and sellers together and help people get the best value for their real estate investment.
Retired from a 25 year career in the Canadian Air Force, I’m familiar with the unique opportunities and challenges of relocation with timelines that don’t always coincide with optimal real estate market conditions. I know the challenges of making important home buying decisions from a distance and have helped many military families at 19 Wing Comox make a smooth transition whether they were moving to or from the Comox Valley.
