Alberta producer ponders return feature on PGARA stock car racing scene; Tourism PG recognizes marketing potential
When people go for a ride on the Little Prince for a quick rail tour at Lheidli T’enneh Memorial Park they might not realize how and why a miniature wood-burning steam engine ended up in Prince George.
Because there was no coal in northern B.C., the Little Prince was retrofitted to utilize wood heat to produce its steam, with a never-ending supply of logs to keep it running. Without it, that main east-west rail line between Edmonton and Prince Rupert so instrumental in opening up the territory for the forestry and mining industries might never have been built.
Hays, a former reporter with the Medicine Hat News and Halifax Daily News, switched to television news in 1996 and has been a video producer ever since. He first visited Prince George in June and returned in July, sleeping in his camper van, where he edited footage obtained from hand-held cameras and a drone.The feature on Mr. PG, the iconic symbol of Prince George, sheds light on how he became such a beloved figure in the city’s history.
Hays and his Tangerine Productions also focused on Fort McMurray to launch the Landmark Telus Originals series, which reveals snippets of history of northern communities in B.C. and Alberta. The Landmark videos launched on Dec. 27 on Telus Optik TV Channel 8 and on YouTube.
