Good job, CTV Vancouver Island. There's no audio to the story and the footage is of a land-locked "lighthouse" in Minnesota. BC lighthouses and accommodations do not look like this, inside or out. And BC lighthouses are in BC. On the coast. In Canada.

Kiri Westnedge, a communications advisor with the Canadian Coast Guard, says there are 58 lightstations in B.C., 27 of which are staffed.

 

"The position of lightkeeper involves being comfortable working in remote areas with few people, travel by boat or helicopter, and living on the edge of the ocean. It is a very unique job but it is not a job for everyone,” says Westnedge.

 

Those who are successful in applying will act as "relief," she adds.
