Ben Keen found a Tropical Kingbird today at the Prince Rupert airport. He was putting on a show by the main entrance at 10am.

I think that would make it the most Northerly TK reported in BC?

Although there are a few sightings further north in SE Alaska, this is likely the most northerly record for BC.
Nice record. Its been a good year for this species in BC.
