Once Upon a Day... Cowichan 

I can not believe that there are people who do not like this video....crazy. As an adoptee I would like to thank Cowichan Bay for giving me a beautiful and awesome home the last 4.5 years. My daughter even has her first job in The Bay....really has been a glorious adventure...thank you x

Absolutely fabulous!! Nick and Eric, you have done a truly remarkable job to showcase this little slice of paradise called the Cowichan Valley. The end result truly exceeded my expectations. I am proud and honored to have been part of this production!

What a wonderful portrayal of Cowichan! Beautifully done, thank you.

I have viewed this three times all ready since I received it this morning, my Grand daughter just said thats awesome, what an incredible island we live on. Thank you God

After moving from the mainland to the Cowichan Valley, we haven't looked back. Not a day goes by that we don't get to experience something new to see or experience. Kudos to the Nick and Eric for their incredible work. I've been sending this 5 minute clip to all my friends around the globe encouraging them to take a peak and then come and see this place and experience what we have to offer. I encourage all Cow Valley folk to do the same.

This is a spectacular glimpse of our little piece of the earth and I couldn't be more proud to call this place home

Absolutely fabulous now lets do the rest of the island what a wonderful world we live in.

Awesome ! good job showing people how great Cowichan the Warmland is.

Breathtakingly beautiful!

Outstanding video! BEETHOVEN's ODE TO JOY is music for ever. Would like to live there "once upon a day..."

Cowichan is the region stretching from just north of Victoria, (about 30 minutes) almost to Nanaimo on Vancouver Island BC. It also stretches from east to west coast of the Island. The main and largest town is Duncan, and there are several villages and hamlets..... and lots of gorgeous rural countryside.

We reall;y did enjoy the music, the scenery and the production. Well done!

Watched this last night and it was unreal where we live and all the great performers we have in our valley. Well done Eric and Nick

This made me very proud of my adopted home. Thanks for taking in so many varied aspects of Cowichan. Wonderful music.

Absolutely Magnificent! Only one aspect missing - all the phenomenal mushrooms available free for the picking throughout the Cowichan.

I love this video...I love my home.

Damn it Nick - I cry every time I watch this because it makes me so proud of our lovely Valley ! Thanks so much for capturing the magic that is Cowichan !!

how beautiful, i was born here and this says why it always brings me back!

Stunningly well-conceived. Brilliant!

It was...... and we won Best Marketing Award for communities up to 20,000. And now nominated in the Tourism Vancouver Island industry awards - wish us luck!

Fabulous- Saw the whole vidio last night and made me so proud to live in the valley by the sea

I simply love Cowichan Valley!

Yes, lots of good spots to see on Vancouver Island - as a certain newscaster from CTV would say, "I love this island" :)

It is like a paradise. i like the place.

Thank you, folks.......YOU NAILED IT!!!

This has to be one of the best promotional videos I have seen in a long time! We are planning to move to Duncan BC this year and I have been researching madly to find information on the area and the schools and this video has been a real treat. I can't wait for the kids to come home so I can show them this. Thank you for posting this.

Looks great - can't wait to see for myself!

Makes me want to go back to BC to live let alone visit!

So beautiful our country is , tears of happiness just to watch this video , congratulation

Simply beautiful!

I just stumbled across this video in search of something else - this is an incredibly well done piece of art! Beautiful through and through! A pleasure to watch!

If I didn't already live on Vancouver Island, this would definitely sway me! Great video :)

Beautiful!

Beautiful! Clever! I love it!

Great video! Coming for the first time for my Christmas & New Years to stay at a cabin. Can't wait to see and experience the area.

Very nicely done!

The lovely Cowichan Valley is a scenic 30 minute drive from Victoria and it's one of the many beautiful places that surround our city. This video shows you why we all love to live in this part of the world, and why you should pay us a visit.....soon.

Beautiful

Waouuuu...alors là...chapeau ! Super vidéo de pub pour une région du monde qui a l'air d'être très sympa !!!

Awesome video!!

Well done guys!

Outstanding

WOW!

This video should be kept secret! We already have too many people invading this wonderful space. This will just bring more.😄

Wow, absolutely fabulous, I am blown away! This actually made me get a lump in my throat. You are one creative and talented guy Nick, and Eric! And showing how much talent we have in our little jewel of a valley. Where can I get my own copy?

Well done!

Wow, I grew up in the Cowichan Valley and loved it. But then it was a blue collar area. Nothing high fallutin about us.

Awesome clip!! :)

beautiful

Born and Raised here and about to graduate from Cow High.

To live here is heaven!'

Thanks for your reply Elly! Glad to hear recognition was given! As an actor/director/producer I'm always conscious of giving credit where credit is due!

Awesome

Wow. VERY nice. Top notch. Thank you.

I am sorry that you have missed these important credits. Everyone, including the musicians, have received lots of credit everywhere and many times when and where the video is shown. Most of it is usually verbally in any presentation and there is a list of the musicians at the end of the longer version of the video which is available at the Chamber of Commerce in Duncan and will soon be on the DVCuisine website

What a great video! I just wish credit would have been given to the musicians and others on the creative team!

Excellent video... when you make an update of this video, try to include shots of Individual and Team Youth Sports even skateboarding, yoga, etc.

Vancouver Island, British Columbia, Canada :)

It is a five star.

nice to see Ed Peekacoot !

I grew up in the valley and miss it terribly , the NDP government drove me away in the 90's . I'll be back when I retire , see yah in 20 years .

This is a really great video. What kind of camera did you use to shoot this with?

who are the musicians and choir? The whole piece is superb! Thank you.

when is the next train?

Where is Cowichan?

I wanted to show this to a friend in China and they can't view it as there is no youtube available in china. Can you post it also on Vimeo? Tourism is international, open the doors :)

Annnnnnd, this all happened in one day?

Is this where musicians go to retire?

Gorgeous but not realistic. Where is the rain? And the endless grey days?

Beautiful !!!

Well done!
