Behind the Scenes

We are excited to announce that we have two new reporters joining the team here at Energeticcity! If you see them around town, make sure to give them a warm FSJ welcome.

A quote Max lives by is, “Don’t fear death, fear not living.” He has been an avid volunteer traveller since he was 13, visiting countries such as Ghana, Argentina, Vietnam, and more. 

Max enjoys critically acclaimed movies and TV shows, as well as books, chess, poker, hiking and kayaking. He is inspired by writers such as Ernest Hemingway, C.S. Lewis, Fyodor Dostoevsky, Hunter S. Thompson, Douglas Murray and Malcolm Gladwell.

After time off from his career and venturing into other vocations, he started his career proper in 2022 in Campbell River, B.C.

Edward was attracted to the position of Indigenous Voices reporter with Energeticcity as a challenge.  Having not been around First Nations for the majority of his life, he hopes to learn about their culture through meaningful conversations while properly telling their stories. 

Ed is also a fan of college sports, junior hockey, and most combat sports.
