How to Meet Single Rich Men in British Columbia, Canada

Located on the northern part of North American continent, Canada is one of the most developed countries in the world.  Apart from being major driving factors of the economy, Canada’s abundant natural resources, vibrant media and long history of international trade have also contributed to the making of most of its billionaires – a good thing to remember if you are particularly interested in meeting and dating single rich men from British Columbia, the westernmost of the Canadian provinces.

Get to know the rich foresters

A great way to meet wealthy guys in British Columbia is to get to know the really rich foresters. Traditionally forestry and logging have been the mainstay of the economy of this province and has brought forth some of the richest businessmen in the country. A case in point is the Irving family, one of the richest in Canada. The family is the inheritor to one of the leading Canadian businessmen of the twentieth century, K. C Irving who expanded its initial sawmill business into a diversified empire interests in forestry, pulp and paper, tissue, newsprint, building supplies, frozen food, transportation, shipping lines, and ship building. The three sons of K.C. Irving to whom the family businesses were passed down are James, Arthur and John Irving. Currently the fortunes of James and Arthur Irving  are pegged at $ 3. 5 billion USD. In recent times though forestry has no longer been the major economic activity, instead industries associated with forests have come up in a big way. Thus paper and pulp manufacturing is one of the most thriving industrial sectors. Also associated with this is the chemicals industry which manufactures an enormous range of products for the use of other industrial sectors, especially for forestry and agriculture. In addition, its produces plastics, chemicals, paints, oil products, pharmaceuticals, environmental products, biotech products and petrochemicals. Thus if you cannot find enough single rich foresters to go around, you can also take your pick from engineers, industrial architects, highly-skilled technicians as well as top executives and corporate honchos of the industrial sector derived from forestry. However for this you need to be at the right place; since most of these industrial and processing plants are located in the interiors of the province.
