Any art form is welcome as long as it can be transformed to large scale digital images. “NIAC sees this as an opportunity for local indigenous artists to bring their artwork to the people of the North without them leaving their communities,” Diane Levesque, president, Northern Indigenous Arts Council, said. It is not often that artists can apply their work to an outdoor travelling venue that covers such a big geographic area. With so many galleries closed, this is the right time to undertake this initiative. The adorned buses will travel between Prince Rupert and Prince George, Prince George and Valemount, Prince George and Fort St. John and Fort Nelson and Dawson Creek.

PRINCE GEORGE, B.C. – The Northern Indigenous Arts Council is accepting submissions from Indigenous artists for a chance to have their artwork displayed on intercity buses.
The council is working with Diversified Transportation Ltd. to have the artwork from northern artists on BC Bus North transports.
NIAC is looking to have the artwork supplied by Indigenous artists in the communities serviced by BC Bus North. According to a release, the artwork “should express and advance the connections between the Northern Regions Indigenous communities.”
The artwork will spruce up four buses that provide service between Prince Rupert and Prince George, Prince George and Valemont, Prince George and Fort St. John, and Fort Nelson and Dawson Creek.

The International Brotherhood of Teamsters might agree with the adage that bad things happen in threes.
For the third time in recent weeks, the union has been decertified at a transportation-related company. The vote was for a small group of workers, just 20. The employer is Harbor Distributing LLC, which the National Labor Relations Board (NLRB) report on the vote says does business as Allied Central Coast Distributing. It is located in Santa Maria, California.
The vote was narrow, according to the NLRB data, with 10 votes in favor of ditching the union and seven votes in favor of keeping it. Three voters apparently did not cast a ballot given that there were 20 eligible voters.
