BC Tourism Resiliency Network (BCTRN)

The BC Tourism Resiliency Network (BCTRN) is a long-term resiliency program providing B.C. tourism businesses with meaningful support to navigate challenges and adapt to frequent change.

The BCTRN was launched in April 2020, in response to the COVID-19 pandemic, by the five regional destination management organizations (RDMO) of the BC Regional Tourism Secretariat (BCRTS), including TOTA.
