affirming its spot as the consistently ranked No.1 ski resort in North America. Last winter, Whistler Blackcomb tallied a total

accumulation of 1,389 centimeters or 45.6 feet of snow. While those numbers seem high, they are actually just above the

annual average delivered to Whistler Blackcomb each year. Over the past ten years Whistler Blackcomb has received an

average of 1,192 centimeters or 39.1 feet. “Following on the heels of last year’s exceptional season, this winter we are looking

forward to continuing to show guests why we’re a great skiing and riding destination,” said Dave Brownlie, Whistler

Blackcomb’s President and Chief Operating Officer. “Last season we achieved the highest customer satisfaction score in the

Canadian ski industry, affirming our reputation for delivering an incredible guest experience. This season we will continue to

improve our guest experience by introducing a new “Family Certified” program, developing new Snow School programs, and

unveiling the new Wonder Routes.”

Adara Hotel adopts a unique Canadian invention which cleans without chemicals “We are serious about protecting the environment and the health of our guests as we introduce chemical free cleaning. The Lotus Pro system is a product that supercharges ozone in water, creating an incredible cleaner that is natural, non-toxic and chemical-free. It is now widely regarded that most conventional commercial and household cleaning products are hazardous to

humans and the environment as a whole. With the lotus Chemical-free Cleaning System, the liquefied ozone produced by the device cleans, kills harmful bacteria and viruses, and then reverts back to water and oxygen—without toxic fumes or residues.

It kills bacteria in much the same way as a chemical agent in that they both attack the cell wall. However, in the case of this ozone solution, bacterial cells absorb the solution just as they would water, and then ozone ruptures the cell wall from the inside out, destroying the cell. Once these cells are killed, they are suspended within the solution and can easily be removed from the surface with the simple wipe of a clean cloth or mop. We have a chance to clean cleaner and healthier without the use of chemicals. Our staff will be happier, our guests safer and

our carbon footprint will be reduced. The Lotus Pro commercial grade ‘ozonated water’ cleaning machine offers a green alternative to the long standing belief that it takes harsh chemical based products to get a thorough and sanitary cleaning job done. Being sustainable is an ongoing commitment and we will continue to do our part.”
