Sayward is a seaside village on northern Vancouver Island, at the mouth of the Salmon River at Kelsey Bay, about 10 km off Highway 19. The Village of Sayward runs its roads, water and sewer, parks, the Kelsey Centre, the municipal campground, bylaw enforcement, building permits, business licences and the Sayward Volunteer Fire Department. Garbage pick-up is every Thursday through Waste Management, billed by the Village. The Strathcona Regional District works with the Village on emergency notifications (Alertable) and levies for regional programs. Many things people think of as "village" matters, like marriage licences, health cards and driver's licences, are provincial.
