Background

Destination British Columbia established the industry-based TMC in 2013, as outlined in the Destination BC Corp. Act, to provide advice to the Corporation’s Board of Directors and CEO on:

  • Marketing strategies for Destination BC
  • Aligning Destination BC’s marketing strategies with tourism marketing programs across the province
  • Assessing the performance of Destination BC’s tourism marketing programming, and the performance of the tourism sector (particularly against key competitors)

Regional Destination Marketing Organizations (RDMOs) and Destination British Columbia selected TMC founding members in July 2013.

The Committee comprises 21 members in total:

  • Eighteen (18) regionally based members, three from each of British Columbia’s six tourism regions;
  • One member (1) nominated by the Indigenous Tourism Association of British Columbia (ITBC); and
  • Up to two (2) additional members appointed by the Destination BC Board in consultation with RDMOs, if necessary to ensure that the perspectives of all tourism sectors are represented on the Committee.

Committee members may serve no more than two consecutive terms.

Collectively, TMC members must have the necessary range of skills and experience, regional and sector perspectives, and marketing knowledge to provide valued, strategic marketing advice to the CEO and Board.
